2012 Debates

[Denver]

It's the last debate, and we should expect the candidates to throw in the kitchen sink here.

 

[NotJesus]

They've grown bored with foreign policy. Schieffer tries to get back to it but he's rejected by Romney.

Oh and, while I am a little annoyed that we are talking about the fact that we are not talking about foreign policy in the "foreign policy debate"....

But outside of that I think Obama scored a big point with his 48th state in the nation for small business growth.

 

[UTLonghorn]

After 15 minutes of debating off topic domestic policy, Bob Schiefer finally chimes in with, "can we get back to foreign policy?" What a circus act this has become.

Of course he is. Romney is very weak on foreign policy, why would he want to expose himself like that?

 

[Denver]

Oh oh... Romney doesn't give specifics again on an important financing issue.

 

[Unabogie]

Mitt Romney is Shell Levine.

 

[not_so_new]

And Romney just COMPLETELY dodged the question on the growth of the military budget.

I'm just taking a break from finishing up my philosophy paper. So, anything interesting happening?

Foreign policy debate now debate about the economy.

 

[MattusMaximus]

Bob Schieffer has lost control of this thing.

Just awful.

I'm telling you, they should start giving the moderators the ability to cut off microphones.

That, or administer electric shocks

 

[MattusMaximus]

Foreign policy debate now debate about the economy.

Yeah, Mrs. Maximus is watching this debate (she's turned into such a political junkie) and I thought I heard Romney saying something about the federal deficit and balancing the budget, which made me go "WTF?!!"

 

[not_so_new]

Oh my did Obama just crush him on the navy!!



That was great. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Denver]

I think I heard the audience chuckle as Obama schools Romney on modern day military needs?

Bad audience!

 

[NotJesus]

Obama mocks Romney's blather about not enough ships in the USN.

 

[RandFan]

Obama is giving a military history lesson to Romney.

 

[SkepticalDrew]

Obama "this isn't a game of battleship" rofl

 

[Unabogie]

The answer about horses and bayonets was pretty good. Score one for team-O.

 

[MattusMaximus]

Any sign of the smirk?

Why... hello there

 

[not_so_new]

Pretty good? I think that was one of the best replies in all of the debates for this election cycle.
