Live Thread: 1st, full Broadcast of DEM PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE DEBATE now on C-SPAN [6:30pm EST]

[summer]

Interesting debate. So far Kerry has been accused by one Dem of hating gays, and Dean was attacked for wanting to make America a 2nd rate military power. ...

[summer]

Carol Braun Mosley just said GW "ruined this economy" and is an "unelected president."

[summer]

Lieberman is now quoting the Bible, saying this debate "sends an uncertain message."

[summer]

Now Sharpton is quoting the Bible.

Sharpton: "Republicans are watching - let's not be fighting."

[CounterCounterCulture]

Didn't we just do this 3.5 years ago? ;-)

I've watched it since the start but didn't have time to start a live thread.

LOL...don't you think it's weird and annoying how Stephanopolous is "hanging around" the stage -- and keeps appearing right in the candidates' faces? Someone get him a podium and get him OFF the stage!

Sharpton: "Republicans are watching - let's not be fighting."

Ah, yes... reminds me when I was growing up and my brother and I were fighting... then he'd say "Mom and Dad are coming - we gotta stop quick before they catch us!"

[CounterCounterCulture]

Sharpton: "Republicans are watching - let's not be fighting."

One of the few times Sharpton will be right. :-)

(I see sleazy people)

LOL...actually, I think it's OK when candidates in one party strongly disagree, because otherwise, it's a snooze-fest, like the FL Dem Gov "Debate" was. All three of those candidates just kept saying how much they loved and respected each other, and after putting all of FL to sleep, they lost the FL gov race in a landslide. So, I am glad when Dems disagree. Lieberman is the one who most pointedly separated himself from the rest of them, but saying he was for both this war and the Gulf War.

Step-on-allofus will start giving shoulder massages soon. Hickeys sure to follow (except on Mostly-Fraud).

[CounterCounterCulture]

Lieberman just mentioned somebody named Algore...who dat?

[CounterCounterCulture]

Gep-phardt: If you like Bush's tax cuts, vote for him...

AMEN!

[Unknown Freeper]

Gephart talking about corporations and health care. Since when should it be a corporation's responsibility to provide health care. (And would someone please smack Edwards.)

[just me]

The Federal government is not responsible for health insurance of the American people... haven't these guys read the Constitution they took an oath to uphold?

[CounterCounterCulture]

Edwards just said Gep-phardt plan sounds like Reaganomics. LOL

[Unknown Freeper]

Does anyone else see the raised platform on the stage they have for Steponallofus?

[CounterCounterCulture]

Sharpton: Bush's tax cuts to working families is like Jim Jones kool-aid...it takes good but it'll kill you. OMG.

[CounterCounterCulture]

Sharpton: Bush's tax cuts to working families is like Jim Jones kool-aid...it tastes good but it'll kill you. OMG.

[GOP_Lady]

Has Kucinich said anything stupid yet? :-)

[just me]

I think Sharpton had a little to much kool aid... what is with his hair?
