Comments on: The “non-partisan” 911 Presidential Forum at Columbia U… fair??? http://floppingaces.net/2008/09/11/the-non-partisan-911-presidential-forum-at-columbia-u-fair/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=the-non-partisan-911-presidential-forum-at-columbia-u-fair Sat, 11 Feb 2012 06:20:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: MataHarley http://floppingaces.net/2008/09/11/the-non-partisan-911-presidential-forum-at-columbia-u-fair/#comment-111757 MataHarley Fri, 12 Sep 2008 15:26:03 +0000 http://www.floppingaces.net/?p=8313#comment-111757 I have to assume Obama was in a green room, watching McCain's presentation. I distinctly heard him use the words (speaking about McCain...) "as I was watching his presentation.." What I noticed is that Obama learned from McCain that night. When asked a question, McCain would start his answers with a short and direct "yes" or "no". This always gained applause. If you'll notice, and totally out of his character, Obama did the same... before he wandered off into his usual nuances. Even my mother wrote me this morning and said that by the time he finished rambling, she forgot what the question was.

The Morning Scramble – 9/12/2008…

I don’t have my Scramble song list to see if I duplicated this one, so sue me if I duplicate things…

Despite the fact I haven’t had a “regular” Scramble since Monday, this one’s going to be limited and in……

He was picked to go on second so they had time to upload the answers onto the teleprompters just out of sight of the cameras. The um, Senator um, of um was way to smooth with his responses.

I'm sorry, but when it comes to national service, community organizer and mega war hero just don't compare. The freshman Senator/professional Presidential candidate also got called out by McCain very well when McCain repeatedly said that it would be better for the American people if Senator Obama had accepted the invitation to go around the country and debate in front together. I think we also got to see a more sincere, direct, and genuine McCain in the forum than in the speeches. Loved the part where McCain said "Yes." He would be willing to have Obama in his administration in charge of national service coordination. That's pretty cool. No hesitiation. No reluctance. No stammering, parsing, and nuancing. Flat out yes to the ultimate display of bi-partisanship..

And, I pretty much think he completely reiterated everything McCain said, too. Please, suddenly Obama thinks it's a.o.k. for Columbia University to allow military recruiters on campus--his former campus?? He said that after he heard the applause that statement got McCain. He is SO obvious it's rather nauseating, isn't it?

Still, he seems to relish annoying conservatives. Fine by me if he likes you. I haven't got your patience.

Bush submitted a comprehensive energy plan in 2001. It was Dick Cheney's first assignment. What did he get for it, a bunch of shit because it included drilling for oil. Oh, how I remember it so well! It was a plan typical of "big oil men".
