Second presidential debate

[AmbrosiaWriter]

People like my Dad see these government programs, such as restricting school lunches, as intrusions on our personal choices.

Well there's the funny thing! It's not - because Daddy and Mummy can pack a lunch full of whatever junk food they want for their kids to eat at school! They have nothing to complain about if they're just going to pop money into little Timmy's hand and rely on the school to feed them what the kid wants to eat.

Anyway.

I've pretty much decided how I'm going to vote, so the only thing I pay attention to are the jokes that everyone makes on both candidates. I laugh, then go about my business. There's not point in me getting frustrated over lies, idiocy, and arrogance. I decided this after the second presidential debate and seeing that Romney was doing the same song and dance through pudding, though I am glad that the moderator and Obama were putting their foot down and smacking him into a corner when he tried to interrupt. "NO Mittens, it's Obama's turn to speak!"

I do have to thank Mitt Romney for providing so much awesome material for joksters (anyone seen the video "Will the Real Mitt Romney, Please Stand Up?") http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxch-...p;feature=plcp

The best one so far.

So your friend wasn't paying attention for the past 8 years or? -.-

No, he was sorely enough disappointed with Obama's first half term to think we have to get someone else, anyone else. And after all, Romney probably *is* the best of the Republicans who were running in the primaries.

There's a good chance he'll sit the election out rather than vote for either. Then again, he might finish coming around. And of course, with the electoral college and the ratio of D's and R's in this state, it doesn't really matter.

Ok, that is too far. Having only healthy options for kids who are going to buy their lunch is one thing. Forcing a child to eat some additional food when they have a packed lunch and then charging the family after the fact should be illegal.

Also... chicken nuggets are what's missing from her lunch? Uh... she's got a TURKEY sandwich. This honestly just sounds like a school trying to wring more money out of parents' pockets.

This one is my favorite.

I like the second one better because the Look on Obama's face is like "Oh God they let him loose again..."

You know, I've seen my Republican friends, as well as Fox News demonize the moderator for calling out Romney, basically saying it's not her place and that she was out of line. But then I ask myself, would they be saying these same things if she had called Obama out instead? Would she be out of line for calling out a candidate then? I'm guessing no.

I think a moderator is supposed to do that somewhat. I mean typically the moderator of these debates are journalists and they are supposed to ask the followup questions. Especially given that these debates are supposed to inform people.

That's still pretty idiotic, to be blunt. To be sorely dissappointed in Obama's first term and to be considering Romney in any way is to, yet again, have been living under a rock as to what's been going on.

The fact Romney was the "best" is sad as fuck all. Considering who he was up against in the primaries all he had to do to be the "best" out of that lot was stand up straight for 30 minutes without shitting himself or using the N word in reference to the president. >.>

I'm not entirely convinced Perry managed to avoid both.

It's gotten to the point where I take everything the far right says with a grain of salt.

For me, it's gotten to the point where I take everything the far right says with enough salt to rust out the fenders on a Corvette.
