Wash ,'Bushwhacked'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Last night, McCain said this:
"It was an energy bill on the floor of the Senate, loaded down with goodies, billions for the oil companies, and it was sponsored by Bush and Cheney," McCain said. "You know who voted for it? You might never know. That one. You know who voted against it? Me."
Does the "That one" bother people?
Allyson, I hope all is ok today.
sara - y'all need some no disaster days.
People are yelling at each other in an office. Two others are arguing on a phone. WAH, it's the last day without the boss here, why can't people just be calm. I want/need to get through 3 things I had planned to do but haven't done while the boss is out. Must get on it.
Does the "That one" bother people?
Criticism of that specific line is all over the interwebs today; I watched the debate on NBC last night, and almost the first thing that one of the commentators noted was "that one" and McCain's patronizing "You probably didn't even know who Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were before this crisis."
Yeah, they were talking about it last night too. It pinged me a little, but not as much as it's getting play.
I just wanted McCain to point his thumbs at his chest and say "this guy" at the end of that bit.
McCain's patronizing "You probably didn't even know who Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were before this crisis."
I'm sure he didn't, because McCain never had to struggle to get a mortgage in his life. A lot of people outside of his tax bracket have considerable experience with them.
The problem with this argument, which people also make here, particularly in terms of which candidate would deal better with terrorism
The problem with this argument for me is that people refuse to give a chance to other schools of thought other then the militaristic way.
Dear cow-irkers: STOP YELLING ABOUT THE DEBATE. GO AWAY FROM ME.

That's because if you sit down and talk to your adversaries you are WEAK WEAK WEAK. And terror-loving.
