1. Gosh, sports or religion; what's more important?
That's a real stumper. Good thing there wasn't any vapid star gossip on or it would throw vast segments of the population into sheer torment.

4. I watched both.
The forum ended at 10pm and Phelps swam around 11pm.

5. I could have watched both because of tape delays up here,
but I chose to watch Phelps and not the forum. Just me.

7. But CNN is replaying it tonight and probably will again and again. And the MEDIA
Edited on Sun Aug-17-08 02:29 PM by jenmito
will keep showing snippets of McCain talking about his POW years and Obama talking about his drug use. :eyes:

8. Which is bigger, the asshole Phelps' ego or McCain's lies?
We can play this game all day.

11. Neither. Rick Warren's ego.
I'm surprised he could stand up out of his chair.

10. Not to be a downer, but I suspect enough fundies watched it and then talked about it
today in church to give McPander a couple point bump in the polls. I guess we'll see over the next few days.

12. Phelps is irrelevant and insignificant. Our choice of president will echo for a century.

14. Phelps!
He's from Maryland. Besides, the "Faith Forum" creeps me out too much.

17. I can't think of two things I like less than sports and religion!
But that's fine. It was Saturday night so I was drinking and playing guitar, not wasting my time with this nonsense. :P :toast:
