1. I'm surprised he didn't say "sit down boy"...
Sarah Duke probably would have.

5. LOL, I thought
that and the references to "gold plated cadillacs" were especially loving.

2. Yep, a stupid thing to say.
We could only hope of a comeback like "Well actually I'm the President of a local bank, dumbass".

11. I KNOW!
How can you assume someone has never heard of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac? That's basically assuming they've never considered purchasing a home.

12. Who would pay
for all of the children from mothers who were unfit or unable to care for these babies? I know the Repugs would have these children, who were not adopted for various reasons, in grossly underfunded orphanages, starving, dying, stealing etc, with little or no medical care. Their reprise would be, "They should make it on their own, sink or swim, this is America!"

6. This was the thing I thought people would pick up on
even more than the "that one" comment.

9. Me too
Lordy, I wanted to smack him. Creepy, old bastard. I wish Oliver had come back with, "I know what they are, Senator." I wonder how the crawly line under the screen went with that one. I also wonder how "my friends" went over again and again and again.

10. Why did McCain turn his back on the black questioners?
Edited on Wed Oct-08-08 10:03 AM by GreenEyedLefty
I noticed it when a woman asked him about the climate issue. Or was it the camera angle? I dunno. McCain is an odd one.
