Sneering like a “Cheshire Cat” ready to claw Obama, an ingracious, mean and contentious John McCain repeatedly pivoted on his foolish campaign stump-line: “Obama does not understand,” …”Obama will raise your taxes,” …..interjecting with his FAVORITE FETISH — “Pork Barrel Spending,” a.k.a Congressional EARMARKS.

   Obama Towers Over McCain

McCain’s verbal and body language was “off-putting,” contemptuous, condescending and patronizing. McSAME couldn’t get himself to look at Obama for a full ninety minutes — a grumpy, angry old man indeed.

Maybe old-man McCain thought Obama is a VietCong!

Barack Obama on the other hand was presidential crisp, caring and reassuring. He was polished, confident and focused — fully prepared, and able to convey a real depth of knowledge on nearly every issue.

Even White Nationalist ReTHUGlican Nativist, Pat Buchanan of MSNBC, grudgingly gave Obama high marks, comparing the debate to the epic Ali-Frazier fight in Manila, the “Thrilla in Manila,” on October 1, 1975. Buchanan likened Obama to Ali, who almost blinded Frazier with jabs and counter-attacks, in fourteen grueling rounds. “Obama “stuck in the needle” repeatedly, said Buchanan,” “frequently he back-peddled and jabbed effectively.”

To his credit Fox News’ Toe-Sucking Pervert, Dick Morris, judged this debate very objectively, surprisingly. While appearing on Fox News’ “O’Hannity and Coward,” Mr Morris said: “Obama came across as knowing and caring about the average person.”

Earlier yesterday before the debate Mr. Morris said:

Dick was right, the taller, younger man won — Barack Obama!

David Gergen, a respected adviser to multiple US presidents for 30 years, and CNN Analyst, had this to say: “Obama held his own like John Kennedy did to an older Nixon in 1960.”

Even the ALWAYS biased FoxNews.com conducted an impromptu poll that had Obama beating McCain 54-46%. Note: The poll is safely hidden in an obscure section of the website, while the majority of the stories on the 1st page are all anti Obama.

More Debate Reviews: Barack Obama Wins, “More Presidential,” “Knowledgeable and Detailed”

——————————————–

The primary focus of this debate was foreign policy, and expectations were that McCain would SLAM-DUNK obama.

Well, he didn’t.

McCain spent too much time angry, negative and lying as usual.

The decision goes to Obama — He won the “Thrilla in Oxford, Mississippi.” Obama only needed to hold-on, …and he did more than that.

NEXT — I am looking forward to Joe Biden EATING the “Killa From Wasilla” alive — Next Week! SLURP…SLURP! The “Foot-In-The-Mouth” face-off will be a CATEGORY 5 debate…LOL!

From the day John McCain chose her as his running mate, Sarah Palin has stuck to the same script of blatant lies — repeating the same lies over and over.

She is a barracuda alright, a fabricationist CUM extortionist of Lou Dobbs proportions, a “politico-religious” right-wing Republican operator as ruthless as a “blood-oathed” MUNGIKI.

What else would one expect from a delusional Republican moron who belongs to a church in which the parishioners “speak in tongues,” believe that the earth is flat, promote “pray days” for gays — to convert them to heterosexuality, among many other ridiculous GODLY things….[ more ]

The stupidity is astounding!

It’s Bush thinking once again: “God Speaks Through Me,” said Bush on July 9, 2004 — the man who commands the greatest stockpile of nuclear missiles and other weapons of mass destruction ever created, believes that he is a prophet chosen by God to represent all that is good and right in the Universe…..Sarah Palin thinks in the same fashion!

Bush has clearly demonstrated over the last eight years that he is a greedy, reckless idiot of a leader and America must reject anybody else with the same level of irrational stupidity…..Sarah Palin.

Here are Saint Sarah’s blatant lies so far — which she shamelessly continues to trumpet on the campaign trail:

1. Bridge To Nowhere — Palin backed “Bridge To Nowhere” in 2006. She didn’t say “no thanks” to the PORK, until after Congress had already abandoned it but given Alaska a blank check for $223 million in taxpayers’ money anyway. Saint Sarah is lying when she says: “I championed reform to end the abuses of earmark spending by Congress” and opposed federal funding for the controversial bridge to a sparsely populated island. “I told Congress, “Thanks, but no thanks,” on that bridge to nowhere.” “‘If our state wanted a bridge,’ I said, ‘we’d build it ourselves.’” …[ more ]

2. Sold Executive Jet on Ebay — “While I was at it, I got rid of a few things in the governor’s office that I didn’t believe our citizens should have to pay for. That luxury jet was over the top. I put it on eBay.”

Old man McCain compounded the distortion: “You know what i enjoyed the most? She took the luxury jet that was acquired by her predecessor and sold it on eBay - made a profit.”

While it is partly true that jet was listed on eBay, it didn’t sell and was later sold at a loss. When no offers came in, Palin hired a jet broker - Turbo North Aviation in Anchorage - which sold the jet for $2.1 million to an Alaska businessman. The former governor bought it for $2.7 million.

3. Fired The Chef — Palin didn’t fire the chef, instead transferred her to the Republican state legislature to cook gourmet meals in their legislative lounge. ANOTHER SUGAR-COATED LIE — Designed to portray her as a reform (CHANGE) minded candidate.

This woman has a problem with the truth …..in the mode of Bush and Cheney.

…..keep digging Moose!

Sarah Palin: Maverick to Nowhere

Sneaky liars always provoke conspiracy theories

Obama Team Responds

I wish Obama would hit much harder. McCain and his female moose are on the trail lying their asses off. These two — Palin and McCain are typical ‘Take no prisoner THUG‘ Republicans.

The Obama-Biden message is too soft — John McCain and Sarah Palin ARE NOT NICE PEOPLE. They are TOUGH LYING POLITICAL SNAKES, who must be beaten in the head to submission.

Apparently the Democrats have not learned their lesson over the years.

Slightly more than half of the American electorate is “functionally illiterate,” — they don’t read regularly, they don’t analyze and depend mostly on partisan TV to make crucial political judgments. This is worsened by the fact that an estimated 40 million people in the U.S. cannot read a simple sentence, a factor brought about by among many other things - undiagnosed learning disorders, poverty, unstable homes, bad schools and teachers — despite the immense wealth in this country.

Factor in racism and you have fertile “moose-hunting” grounds for Palin and McCain.

An illiterate person will always favor the candidate who connects in a simple “no-frills” manner, rather than a nuanced professorial approach — typical of Obama. After all very few accomplished anything in school, anyway. They tend to have blind and foolish faith, which is downright dangerous, especially in this volatile world of today.

The result: Even an unqualified and intellectually deranged goon like Bush gets elected ….TWICE!

When you elect Nixon (a foul mouthed racist crook), Reagan (a pro-apartheid serial liar with a heart of darkness), Bush Sr. (godfather of a thieving cabal) and Bush Jr. (an un-schooled illiterate and a cabal puppet) for president, in succession — you must be an idiot too. | More on Reagan |

Republicans are specialists when it comes to exploiting the “Low-Information” voter, and they will lie, cajole, mis-represent, fabricate and scratch like hungry hyena’s trying to chew into a chain link fence, to get their malicious message across, tactics the Democrats have never perfected and are afraid to use.

I say fight fire with fire!

Obama and Biden should know that an ill-informed person is far more receptive to fear-mongering, and therefore they must counter — not with more fear-mongering, but by calling McCain and Palin for what they are: LIARS — in as raw a manner as possible.

The Obama team must relentlessly hammer home — that electing McCain is a third Bush term. They must lay prime emphasis on bread-and-butter economic issues, and their three debate performances must be phenomenal.

The excitement surrounding Sarah Palin will eventually fizzle out — as she stumbles through issues, and as her vetting becomes even more intense, but still the Obama campaign cannot afford to be nice to these two poisonous snakes!

They better take the fight to these two LYING THUG GOONS, with a vengeance, before it is too late.

Bob Herbert of the New York Times sums up this LIBERAL FEAR very eloquently:
