Where is Smirks's "1.something million jobs added in last 13 mo." from??
Excuse me?? Am I missing something? Figure I heard was 98,000.....

I'm sorry I had to turn off debate. Its just making me too pissed to hear this incredible liar say this shit and make it sound impressive. Kerry has to continuaously backtrack to correct the shitstorm.

But I can see people buying this crap, he says it in a believable way.

2. thanks for explaining sam
of course, I'm sure plenty of people will swallow that whole--I sure didn't know what to think (except I knew it couldn't be true, but that's because I know he's a total liar. People who aren't aware of his lies could take that at face value)....

but anyway, I WAS seeing alot of sceptical faces in the crowd...that's good.

3. Pulled it Out of Thin Air!
The heartlanders are just overwhelmed by his religiosity, see? To them, he glows like a frigging angel with a halo over his head! Unreasoning people like that will believe their "chosen" leader no matter what. I know, I am probably being unfair since not everyone there in that townhall is a Bushite. However, I am very disappointed in how some will buy lies because the liar "says it in a believable way", which in this case to me means possessing the same accent as theirs, maybe dressing as they do, etc. When will the country people wake up and realize that Bush is a fake?

4. or out of his butt.....
yes, I totally agree about the people who "just like him!"
Still, I thought I saw a lot of skeptical faces in that audience.

5. Thy count private sector jobs too.
I suppose that would include military enlistments as well as government jobs that have been increaseing rapidly over the past year. One way to creat jobs is to hire folks--don't worry most of them will be fired in early November.
