Fact checkers won't change dick about the shit storm we saw tonight

[joeglow3]

All the mainstream sites will look for an "equal" number of "lies" from each person, making it seem like both candidates lied equally "like we know all politicians do". For instance, here is what is running on the front page of yahoo:

USA Today:

ABC:

In short, if the "strategy" was to act Presidential and wait for the fact checkers to clear up the lies, someone needs their ass fired.

Fortunately, there are 2 more debates (with one of them being the Town Hall style) and I GUARANTEE Obama will come out swinging.

2. There were no lies tonight from Obama, he didn't have time to get a word in edge wise. However, you

are most likely right about the fact checkers, the populous probably doesn't care

4. You do know he spoke 4 minutes more than Romney right?

6. The polling I have seen tonight look like complete shit

I still have 100% confidence that Obama will come out swinging and kick Rmoney's ass in the last 2 debates, but this was a poor start.

7. The opinions of the MSM no longer matter,

in a broadband, Twitter world.

8. AMEN!! When the M$M does the "False Equivanlency" crap it doesn't matter about lies

[renate]

9. I've heard/read often that Obama is very competitive

There will not be a repeat of tonight's performance. I hope Romney is feeling pretty damn complacent right now, but even if he's not, the next two debates will be pleasing to us.
