Bush looked like a kid giving a book report . . . |

. . . without reading the book. What a mind-boggling-ly poor performance!
The articles and commentaries being written string together the actual words Bush said, but they omit his stammering, his hesitancy, his wandering, his lack of direct address, and most of all they don't show how many times Bush opened doors for Kerry to walk in all over him! 9/11 and Saddam? Surely Rove told him to avoid that connection at all costs! And not knowing that China has asked us to conduct bilateral talks with N. Korea? He looked completely stunned.
I'm making DVD copies of this debate to give to everyone I know.

Kerry was erudite from beginning to blinking red. Bush kept using his signature pregnant pauses, which was stupidly pointless in this format, with no supportive audience to applaud. And he couldn't even string a coherent thought along for 120 seconds! Postively embarassing.

watching Kerry show * up. I doubt I could have a dvd of that shifty-eyed thug. It's like checking out gory/offensive websites out of curiousity, you can only take so much.
