Damn politics.

[kellinator]

So I specifically planned to be out of the house last night because I just knew that if I watched the debate, the evening would end with my foot in the television. But after hearing y'all's comments on it, I'm kinda wondering if I should have checked it out anyway. My desire not to have an aneurysm isn't really a valid reason to opt out of the political process.

...On the other hand, I just read some more post-debate analysis and now I want to go soak my head, so maybe I did make the right decision after all. Fair warning: I expect to be damn near insufferable for the next month.

Bush lost, BIG.

He didn't really SAY much of anything. Most of his point and counterpoint was repetition, verbal fumbling, meaningless drivel. He was by turns childish and petulant, rude (raising his voice and shouting out "let me respond to that!", practically waving his arms to get a rebuttal), arrogant and smug. He made me laugh out loud several times, made me angry several times, and made me shake my head in disbelief. Foreign policy was supposed to be Bush's strong suit, and Kerry handed him his ass, his head, and his balls. I'm feeling pretty happy with the outcome, and gleeful that there are two MORE of these. Seriously, Bush looked WORSE than Nixon going up against JFK.
