Too polite?
1.) MO and “O” wouldn’t know ‘polite’ if it fell on them from the 10th story
2.) “O” was NOT being ‘polite’... rather, he was visibly stunned and scared out of his wits... like a dear in the headlights!

My response to the dems is:
Face it, fools. Without his teleprompter, Obama just isn`t that sharp. His vaunted intellect is shallow and his ideology is anti-American..and that`s pissing off increasing numbers of voters. The fact he`s now having to defend the indefensible makes that all the more evident. We in conservative circles have known it all along.. you slow-learning leftards are just seeing it now.

Obama was unprepared, scared, overwhelmed, and proved once again to be the least knowledgeable and least experienced person in the room on any topic posed by the moderator or his opponent.

Lying, making false accusations and not looking your opponent in the face is “too polite”??

The implication of your wording is that he IS “sharp” with the teleprompter. More accurately, he is able to present the illusion of “sharpness” when reading words on a screen.
The left has so much of their self-worth wrapped up in supporting “smart” people and denegrating “dumb” people that they automatically attribute “smart” to leftists and “dumb” to conservatives in order to make themselves feel “smart”.
S-M-R-T! We are SMART!

The poor bastard fully believes in his own superiority and thought he could just walk away with the debate... in fact, he thought he had.

"Was that some kind of genius strategy to rope-a-dope him in?" LOL! A week later and they are still grasping at straws.

Radio host, Tom Joyner, no Rhodes scholar is he. The guy and his less than stellar audience haven't figured out the Master's plan, but yet still, so naive and clueless, and of course wanting to curry favor with him, refer to his disastrous debate debacle as "genius". That's the funniest aspect of it all.

When Obama gets mad he can become petulant and just nasty, Maybe he will flip Mitt the bird! This will sell well with his hard left base but will turn off the majority of the voters. And Mitt might not just take it like Hillary did in 2008. He may fire back and sink him.

Kudos to you for doing a masterful job if you created the first image.
