Cheney* is going to mop the floor with Edwards.

[ClassWarrior]

And poor JE just won't be able to defend himself...

23.

[liberal N proud]

1. IGNORE THIS POST!

[DeminDC]

3. It is an astute point

Let's set the expectations very low.

[Dems Will Win]

22. Cheney will beat him so bad, he will beat Edwards in the next

People Magazine poll as SEXIEST POLITICIAN!

[spooky3]

65. Edwards was obviously not smart enough to get into Yale

like *, and had to settle for a state school.

[ClassWarrior]

4. (psssttt... it's time to set expectations again...)

23.

[drumwolf]

8. no! spread this meme around!

We WANT everyone to believe this going into the debates!

Cheney will turn Edwards into his prison bitch in the debates! He'll send Edwards cryin' home to his mama!

;)

[Misunderestimator]

2. ROFL... Right.

[durablend]

5. Yep...

Cheney's sneer will resonate across America, and the voters will see Edwards for the unqualified lightweight that he is.

[ClassWarrior]

7. Poor JE is nothing but a head of hair.

23.

[Hello_Kitty]

6. Oooooh I'm so scared. I'm trembling with fear right now.

I'm just hoping John throws a couple of zingers at him, all the while with his boyish face and a sweet smile. Cheney will bust a vein right there on stage. Maybe we'll see another 'Cheney yourself' moment!

[calimary]

27. I want to see cheney's lower teeth, and that growling snarl that

slants to - GUESS WHAT, you true-believer republi-CONS - the LEFT! Makes his mouth look like Darth Vader's.

But - oh (snaps out of it) excuse me - what was I thinking! cheney will send that pipsqueak Edwards back to KINDERGARTEN!!!

heh-heh-heh...

[ClassWarrior]

28. Hey Stranger!

:hi:

23.

[TrustingDog]

32. his mouth looks like

the sandworms' on Tremors or Dune.

[ClassWarrior]

38. Ew... thanks A LOT for conjuring up THAT image...

23.

[AIJ Alom]

9. Cheney will mop Edwards sitting down ! Because standing is difficult for

Mr Cheney. And by simply sitting on his ass, like he has done all his life, our Vice President/CEO will dominate Edwards.

His snarls will make Edwards children unable to sleep at night and this will effect Edwards for the rest of the campaign !

[Malva Zebrina]

16. I expect it will be hard work for Edwards to remain seated , because he

has so much energy. Cheney is an old and a very sick man. He will be out of breath after speaking for 90 seconds. That is why his voice is always so low--not enough blood in the lungs. I bet Rove is running around trying to steal the questions so Cheney will not be taken aback with any of them. I would love to see Cheney beaten into the ground by Edwards and I know he can do it.

The media might spin this one--out of "fairness" to Bushy , or out of fear of retribution from this most evil of all men, Cheney.

[AIJ Alom]

35. But Evil is good in Bush world !!! Remember in who's world you live in !

BUSH WORLD !!! BWAAA HAAAAA !!!

[Fovea]

10. I hear Edwards is consumed with fear

and will be under sedation for the debate.

</wink>

[ClassWarrior]

12. Yeah, he's one of those woosie trial lawyers, I hear.

23.

[Jacobin]

11. Please go re-read David and Goliath

Next, pop some nice fresh popcorn.

Next, prepare to be very suprised.

Edwards is one of the best trial lawyers in the country. Unless you have seen one in action or gotten the crap knocked out of you by one, you won't understand.

So, please simply be prepared for the shock of your life.

on edit: (nevermind, I forgot the low expectations sarcasm threads were back)

[ClassWarrior]

15. Oh I won't be surprised.

But I want to make sure LOTS of other people will be.

(And FWIW, please refer to JE as a "public protection attorney," not a "trial lawyer." "Trial lawyer" is a RW meme, and we need to stop playing on their turf. I know I used it in a post above, but that was just part of the play-acting.)

23.

[Jacobin]

19. Actually

as a lawyer myself, the term trial lawyer is a noble and great term. Abraham Lincoln was a trial lawyer.

I'm taking that term back from the RWers. They can disparage it all they want.

Oh by the way? I'm also a "liberal". Yes, they have disparaged that word, to but, guess what. They can't fucking steal it away from me.

(not meaning to be snippy, but you get my point.

[ClassWarrior]

24. I get your point. And I've shared your view in the past.

But what's at stake here is TOO IMPORTANT to get sentimental over words. Please read some of George Lakoff's work and let me know what you think. This is truly a battle of ideas. We need to equip ourselves for it with the right words.

A free PDF sample of Lakoff's latest book is here: http://www.chelseagreen.com/images/DTE_Sampler.pdf

23.

[Dr Fate]

13. If not careful, Edwards will come across as too positive and energetic.

He better watch out- Cheney's age, wisdom & gravitas will be a tough match.

Edwards wins by default if he can just barely hold on.

[bowens43]

14. Cheney has the ultimate debate weapon!!

The sympathy acquiring heart attack!!! If Edwards starts getting the best of him Cheney just grabs his heart and falls to the floor. Debate over. Cheney wins.

[ClassWarrior]

17. And JE needs to lose that tan quick!

He won't appear pasty enough next to the Dick.

23.

[luaneryder]

18. I'm just waiting for that to happen. n/t

[leeroysphitz]

37. That's true...

He's used the ol' bad ticker routine before.

[AIJ Alom]

20. Mr. Haliburton, I mean Cheney will force Edwards to sue him. That is how

bad the debate will go for Edwards. Cheney will do so well he can run for emperor in 2008.



After the debate, he will trade in Edwards for barrel of crude oil (BWAA-HAHAHAHA and we do mean crude)!!!

[Maestro]

21. Yeah I know what you mean

The debate about who would make a better woman is clear.

Cheney wins



or



No contest really. Cheney wins.

[durablend]

25. Those photos were simply NOT NECESSARY

UGH, there goes my lunch :puke:

[Maestro]

36. Then you'll like this....

This time Kerry wins...much more sexy!



or /gasp/

[DemExpat]

42. Soooo funny...........

THanks for the laughs...

:D:D:D:D

DemEx

[BlueNomad]

61. hilarious...

sick but hilarious.....lol

[ClassWarrior]

26. Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww...

23.

[delete_bush]

29. A much better look for Cheney!

Edwards, on the other hand, looks a little scary.

[TexasSissy]

31. Oh, that's TOO funny! Where did you get those pics? I'm still

laughing! Sheesh, I didn't expect that. Quite a surprise.

Some DU'ers are just toooo funny.

[Maestro]

39. Thanks

I can't remember, but just right click on the pics and download.

[TexasSissy]

59. I did.

[patdem]

23. It worked with the Kerry/bush* debates...lets not screw up now!

Cheney is one of the greatest master baters..er uh, debaters in history!!! :crazy:

[ClassWarrior]

68. Now that conjures up the most revoltin' image of them all!!

23.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

30. Cheney is the single greatest orator of all time

He makes Cicero look like crap! Thank goodness Edwards has his looks to fall back on after he loses (if you go for that metrosexual type).

[AlCzervik]

33. Cheney will appear angelic next to the darkly pessimistic John Edwards

[ClassWarrior]

62. Wow, talk about cognitive dissonance.

23.

[agincourt]

34. Fricking motha A right!

Cheney beasts heartland values and small town grocers honesty will blow away shifty Edwards, as he explains how he's make money off of Saddam Hussein when he was in power, and rolled in moolah when Saddam was out of power. His business dealings with Haliburton will show he just a small town honest bumpkin in the big city. Ma and Pa will eat it up and yell," there was Mr. Smith goes to Washington all along!"

[texanshatingbush]

40. Neocon cockroaches talking trash

After watching Kerry dissect bush, it’s incredible these neocon cockroaches are still talking trash. Chenny will be lucky to get through the debate without a heart attack.

[ClassWarrior]

41. Who you calling a neocon roach??

And why are you insulting roaches like that??

:evilgrin:

23.

[newyawker99]

51. Hi texanshatingbush!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[CornField]

63. Has Edwards ever been in a national debate previously?

We can't expect too much from him -- all the press pre-debate will likely bother him and affect his sleeping. Just like rookies heading to their first Super Bowl, we can only pray that Edwards is able to sleep the night before.

[ClassWarrior]

64. Excellent point!! I'm worried...

23.

[txindy]

43. ROFL!

Ummmm,.... Are you on some sort of medication? :freak:

Ooooh, is that the meme for the next debate? Okay.

:pals:

[KharmaTrain]

44. Halliburton...Halliburton...Halle Berry...

We need some psy-ops here...make sure Edwards wears a tie that flashes "Haliburton" subliminally, see if we can get one of the networks to run the word Halliburton on their crawl throughout the debate...hell, let's put Halle Berry in the front row and let her ask a couple questions.

I'm hoping Crashcart gets the cross-examination he truly deserves.

[underseasurveyor]

45. Edwards will certainly lose the debate

if he messes up Dickydoodoo's tie. It's a vitally important issue in the war against terra ya know:eyes:

:evilgrin:

[ZombieNixon]

46. YES...

Send our negative vibes out! Make it seem like we're so sure JE's going to lose. If we have any guys here who lurk on FReep, get it out there. We can play the "lower expectations" game, too!

P.S. It makes me sick saying that Edwards is going to lose horribly, and I don't believe it for a minute, but if it has to be said...

P.P.S. Those pictures are just scary. None of them makes a good woman. Please stop! My eyes!

[Astrochimp]

47. In Cheney debate bingo, will one of .......

the squares be "go F yourself"?



David

[Philostopher]

48. Well, of course!

The Breck Girl is just so naive and nice, he'd never say anything snarky. And Cheney is so commanding -- Edwards is going to look like a kid standing across the desk in the principal's office! Because, you know, Cheney never uses fear and loathing tactics instead of facts to get his point across, my heavens no! He'd never do that. And Edwards -- oh, he wouldn't actually rebut or refute with real information, and do it with a smile on his face. Never happen.

[tishaLA]

49. Dick will use that easy Wyoming charm

and wipe the floor with the Breck boy trial lawyer. He'll make Johnny tremble so bad, he'll start channeling dead babies again.

[hippiechick]

50. What're the numbers in your posts, ClassWarrior ?

I've noticed them before. This one is '23' ?


Thanks :hi:


:hippie:

[drdigi420]

54. 23 EXCUSES for Iraq from Bush

get your t-shirt here:

http://www.cafepress.com/docpolitic/388697

[hippiechick]

55. Isn't cafepress the ones who did

"behind bars" envelopes about 10 years ago (sold with Nixon stamps to complete the picture) ??


:hippie:

[ClassWarrior]

57. I see Digi beat me to the answer.

Yes, 23 different excuses for invading Iraq. And counting. Courtesy of the Excuse pResident. (It's always been 23, btw...)

23.

[Ellen Forradalom]

52. Edwards will spend the whole hour agreeing with everything Cheney says

out of Senatorial collegiality.

[DrBB]

53. I heard Cheney is rated Smartest Man In Human History

...by the non-partisan Smartest Man In Human History Rating Association.

John E doesn't have a chance! If he just manages to just stand there quaking in Cheney's snarling shadow, we'll count that as a major victory against an overwhelmingly superior opponent!

[ClassWarrior]

60. And not smart in the Biblical sense, either.

23.

[theshadow]

56. His defibrillator will trigger....

.... making him flop around on the floor in front of millions of viewers, thus gaining their sympathy.

[ClassWarrior]

58. That's not a pretty picture either.

Maybe the debate sponsors can play some punk rock when it happens. Then it'll just look like The Dick is doing the worm or something.

23.

[HEIL PRESIDENT GOD]

66. And don't forget...

Rumor has it that by Tuesday Cheney will have a full, lush head of hair.

[ClassWarrior]

67. Awwwwww... who needs hair, when you have a supreme brain??

23.
