[azmouse]

We shouldn't bailout CEOs.

[gateley]

[Muttocracy]

4. you can get audio only from the "listen to CNN TV" link on cnn.com

[gateley]

8. Fuck me! You've only told me that a zillion times and yet I keep turning in to

CNN Radio - there was just a piece on Clay Aiken. :banghead: Thank you AGAIN. I will remember. I will remember. I will remember.

11. lolol.....

:hi:

5. He just confirmed that the deal was almost complete before Walnuts got there

and the Senate Republicans need to figure out what it is that they want.

[CakeGrrl]

12. Actually it was House Repubs - Obama said Senate Repubs were pretty cooperative.

Obama also said:

1. He'll stay in Washington tonight and monitor the situation;

2. He has been in touch with Paulson once or sometimes twice a day over the phone and with other leaders, so he feels they can manage the situation AND continue to debate the issues that were a problem before the Wall St. crisis;

3. The debate should partly address these issues in addition to Foreign Policy because if we're not strong at home we can't be strong abroad;

4. He hopes to see McCain at the debate; said that the President should be able to multitask and handle difficult situations while they address the nation.

Good job! Throw down the gauntlet.

[Fleshdancer]

16. d'oh! you're right. Thanks for the correction

:hi:

[Muttocracy]

6. Obama talking about how much gets done w/o cameras there - and he and MCCAIN

hint - that's YOU MCCAIN - need to be careful about interrupting the process.

[eshfemme]

21. It's also a nice pushback on the RW talking point that Obama only does stuff to mug for the cameras

No, Republicans, YOUR nominee does that. He refuses to do ANYTHING without a camera present.

Unlike what the people who are doing the ACTUAL work that McCain is trying to take credit for. Seriously, I get why McCain was hated by the Republicans now.

[azmouse]

7. Obama won't speculate what will happen tomorrow night

if McHoover doesn't show up for the debate.

But says again: We can do more than one thing at a time.

[eleny]

9. Again- calm, assuring and on top of the situation

[Whisp]

10. I have to pinch myself - is he really for real?

good gracious is he good. lol.

How can anyone not SEE IT compared to that stump of an angry man and his trophy mooselini.

[eleny]

14. The shoulders test!

W or McC get on the tv and my shoulders feel scrunchy.

Obama starts talking and my shoulders relax.

[4_Legs_Good]

17. Exactly! He's almost too good to be true.

The guy you only get once in a generation, and you realize that if you let him slip away what an amazing loss it will be for our country and the world.

He makes me prouder every day.

20. I never thought I'd see anything like him in the rest of my lifetime.

just proves how things are balanced, even when we had to suffer the bushes. for every scurroulous thieving neocon that has been messing up our lives, there are good people out there fighting.

and man did we get a good one! GOBAMA!

[trueblue2007]

13. hahahaha! - OBAMA said it was IMPORTANT TO HAVE THE DEBATE!

Obama says HE can stay on top of the financial situation!!! He can do more than ONE THING AT A TIME.

He is making Old man McCain out to be a cave man!! An old man who can only do one task at a time. Someone who can NOT multi-task.

It was a GOOD sound bite.

[eleny]

15. Yeah, maybe for starters W could show McCain how to use the google

[4_Legs_Good]

19. You'd think McSame could stay in touch with that Blackberry device he invented!

Low blow, sorry.

David

[japple]

22. Yeah, that's the ticket! And maybe he can also show him how to use the

backpack listening device he used in the debates.

[Whisp]

18. in other words: McPOW can't chew gum and walk at the same time. lol nt
