Letterman SLAMS Bush with two monologue bits
First is a faux Bush campaign commerical: Kerry is shown and a voiceover says" "Before the debate, Kerry was behind Bush by eight points. After the debate, Kerry led Bush by 3 points. Is this the kind of indecision America wants from a president?"

Second, they played an actual clip of Bush at a stump speech, saying this: " We all know that the world would be better off if we left Iraq...umm.. no, the world would be worse off if we left Iraq."


As far as I saw, Kerry escaped unscathed.

21. Sorry - I messed up the link.
Glad someone fixed it for you. (I was off making more shirts) Isn't that the best?

I have made copies and have them in my car for fast display. Even got the spray adhesive that was recommended for sticking it to everything in sight.

I have also made tshirts with the logo for my kids to wear. They have chosen to wear a different K/E positive or B/C negative shirt to school everyday until the election. They are keeping me very busy! LOL

5. hahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I have it on tape....just watched

after the Bush clip, Letterman goes "Poor guy....poor guy," as if he's some sort of brain damaged halfwit

wait a minute....he IS!

that was a fantastic clip, BTW

so glad I got it...he really stumbles all over himself

7. If he acts this way at the town hall type meeting and has
to answer questions from the audience he just might melt down. Of course Gwen Ifil will only give him the easy questions.

17. Dave was just phrasing it wrong.
Wasn't communicating well with Dean, there, although Dean knew what he meant. Things just got confusing.

He was trying to say that both Kerry and Bush would be in similar situations for the next term, and would have to do similar things.

Of course, Dean was quick to point out that Kerry has credibility and Bush doesn't.

18. Mr. Dean just re-capped alot
of what JK said in the Kerry/* debate. I thought he came across with much conviction. The more that American people hear it, the better Kerry's chances are. Way to go MR. DEAN.
