I didn’t mean to end the week on such a sad little strip…but that’s just the way it worked out. Maybe it was unconscious considering my mood lately.
Did you all watch the VP Debate last night? Biden was amazing. And while the Katie Couric Palin didn’t show up, the one that does know how to find a coherant sentence (mostly) but that still speaks in folksy generalities and never answers an actual question showed up and fooled a good percentage of Americans (again) with her “straight talk”. Let’s be clear – it’s NOT STRAIGHT TALK…they have NO ANSWERS…NO PLAN…it’s a horrible train (bridge?) to nowhere!
According to polls though Biden won the debate (duh) and Obama Biden are still ahead, so I remain hopefully optimistic while the world crumbles around us…
And on that note, Happy Friday everyone, have a great weekend…

Yep, I watched it. And I think they both did well at dancing around questions and stumping for their Presidential candidate. But what made a difference to me was Biden actually answered questions. Palin admitted she wouldn’t answer questions. Yeah. I really respect Gwen Iffel and have heard many of her stories on NPR. But I really wanted to smack her around a bit and shout “Hey! Make them answer YES or NO to some of these! Please!”
And we’ll see how the weekend goes. I’m planning to run on my own tomorrow as a precursor to next week’s event so we’ll see if I survive.

That is an excellent point about Gwen Iffel – can’t believe you beat me to it. What was she there to be – window dressing? She really needed to take those candidates to task – at least a little bit. I mean there was ZERO follow up. It was terrible.
Good luck with your run!

I’m just so sick of Palin’s lack of g’s on the end of words and that stupid you betcha joe sixpack crap.
She was a good debater running for AK gov but she knew Alaska well. That debate proved to me that she can’t answer the questions because she knows diddly-squat about national and international issues.
Please, if there is a God in Heaven, don’t let McPalin win!

The VP debate was not as funny as I thought it would be, but it was clear that Biden knew things and Cartoon Woman did not. Hopefully the rest of American picked up on that, but we’ll just have to wait and see…
Have a great weekend! Don’t let the Repo Man get you down.
