Saw it.

He burned him the whole show. The newsfeed of Katie Couric and McCain was funny.

"Can I drive you to the airport, Senator?".

"You don't suspend?!"

"You don't suspend the campaign! You stick your second-stringer in there!".

I saw it too, the first time I've seen the show in years. He's definately lost his edge and tonight looked like a school girl dumped on prom night.

I guess it's too much for some people to understand that doing a comedy show in the midst of this crisis would be inappropriate.

Even if that were true, it isn't like watching your favorite baseball team's rival heading down in flames. Ideally, I would think campaigns should be about competing ideas which serve to make the end product better.

And expect Obama to actually stand a chance against someone who isn't an old, dried up turd like McCain? This is what that douche bag, Obama, relies on: that his "competition" will be ridiculously weak. Next he'll need his "competitor" to kill toddlers on talk shows just to achieve the 51%.

Also, I don't believe anyone addressed my question. What exactly is McCain going to do that is mutually exclusive with participating in the Friday debate? And how is it going to improve things?

He fucking LIED.

He kept saying that McCain wants to cancel the debate. That's a lie. McCain wants to postpone the debate. If you need some remedial education on the differences between "cancel" and "postpose", I'd suggest you get it.

Is that the kind of person you "agree" with? The guy's a complete fucking liar, and you agree with him?

Man, that says an awful lot about you...

Absolutely inappropriate. I could hear references to Nero if he had gone on. Face it, with the frothy partisans, nothing pleases them.

Barack Obama has proven to all what intelligent people have known all along: He's unfit to be the leader of the free world.

He's not willing to put politics aside for the good of the country. He's not willing to give up his chance at the Presidency. He's not willing to actually show an iota of leadership when handed a golden opportunity. He's more interested in the "ME!" aspect than anything else.

The guy's a piece of shit. He is an absolute pile of steaming human shit.

I note, with no great degree of surprise, that the Canadians here love this patheitc failure. Well, to our Canadian brethren, your opinions mean complete dick.

Idiot libs here in the States are too fucking stupid to realize what is brutally obvious to anyone whose IQ exceeds their shoe size: That Obama doesn't give a flying fuck about Americans. He wants to be the first black President, and he'll fuck you six ways to Sunday to do it. He's going to ram it in and break it off, and libs are bending over and salivating in anticipation...

Perhaps you could answer my question, Steve:

Your perception that there is any collapse is amusing, but what is more amusing is the fact that's all you can do. You can suck on your candystore lollipop, or even pop a bowl of popcorn and watch in glee at what your hypnotic state has you convinced is some kind of demise of someone - qunintessential schadenfreude (very telling, by the way) - but, in reality, that is the extent of your impact.

Knock yourself out.

Well, golly, I don't know. Of course, if I were a SITTING U.S. SENATOR, I might have an idea, and I might be compelled to return to Washington to actually go to work.

The people of Arizona and the people of Illinois didn't elect either of them to run for President. They voted for them to represent them in Washington. One of the candidates is willing to do that, and the other isn't...

Do WHAT work?*sigh*

I am referring to this:
YouTube - John McCain Suspend my campaign

Basically, what he is letting on is that he wants to suspend his campaign so he can "solve this problem."

So, how exactly is he going to "solve this problem" and why does it require him to suspend his campaign and drop out of the Friday debate? I ask because people seem to be jerking off about how great of a man McCain is for doing this and how shitty Obama would be if he did not follow along. The presumption by those people is that McCain is going to do something that will "solve the problem," and that it requires him to suspend his campaign and drop out of the Friday debate. After all, if this presumption is not true, then this is simply a way for McCain to deceptively avoid the debate, deceitfully cause the rise of the implication that Obama cares only about winning and not about Americans, or both.

So, I suppose once elected the first thing McCain will do is ask the rest of the world to postpone everything until he has time to get up to speed?

This is the real world grampa, time marches on, you of all people should know that.

The conservatives should realize that not everybody is as pathetically gullible as they are when it comes to old men trying to duck hard questions. Questions like; why didn't you do something about this during your 26 years of making it happen instead of suddenly being Mr Reform two weeks after you said everything was perfect and all we needed was to quit whining?

McCain isn't on any big deal committees here, he's not important to this matter, his voice isn't needed, his vote isn't crucial and he's probably just going to suggest we invade the Federal Reserve and we'll need the troops occupying Chase Manhattan for the next 100 years of the War on Inflation anyway. He's a pathetic whining dried up old turdfart, mocking the misery of thousands which he's directly responsible for while using it to reinforce his cowardice to face their real advocate. Anybody stupid enough to be swayed by this stunt doesn't deserve protection for their money as they would have probably just spent it on some magic beans in any case.

So, McCain goes to Washington and pretends that he is going to do something to solve this financial crisis. I guess he has to actually be in Washington to keep up with the goings on because he is email and telephone challenged? He has no role in this process that requires his presence in Washington. He's not on any of the committees that are working on this problem.

This seems like a major stunt.

There is conjecture that the reason for postponing the debate Friday is so that he can pre-empt the VP debate. Suspicion is that he is simply trying to keep Sarah out of "harms" way. (sorry if this has been pointed out before but this thread is way to long to read it all).

One question I haven't seen asked or answered anywhere:

Where is all this tax payer money comming from?
I'm sure it's not just sitting around the WH somewhere, so are they going to borrow it from China or Japan or do we just fire up the presses and print it?
