PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE III (live thread)

10.13.04 | Joe, and the rest of FR.

[Joe Hadenuf]

45 minutes to go. If there is already a live debate thread go ahead and delete this.

I understand posting a live thread has become a somewhat of a political ordeal here, when it shouldn't be. So to take the pressure off, I'm posting this anyway. Do I dare? LOL!

[Soul Seeker]

Kerry, give it up. You aren't drawing Dubya's support. LOL

[papasmurf]

Oh so you can count the number of people coming across the border too, creskin?

[Salamander]

I'll say!
Hubby is retired and his SS is meager enough but he has to pay taxes on something he -already- paid taxes on?

The Dems are pure evil.

Kerry boy:
I will stop the leaks at the borders...
Guest worker program---do away with it (union grabbing vote)
full citizenship for illegals...eee gads!


HE DOESN'T KNOW THE BORDERS!

[RightWhale]

Kerry has an outrageous claim, not a plan.

[Howlin]

I wonder why John Kerry never had a THOUGHT about any of this stuff while he was in the Senate; he could have drafted some bills.

[Trinity_Tx]

does Kerry have that much contempt for the average voter's IQ? That he thinks they wont notice how he dodges the questions?

And dodging the immigration question was stupid of him.

... oh now he says he wants technology. LOL

[chronic_loser]

Immigration

8K people crossing

I see it as a multifaced problems. We want to control the border. People come for economic reasons. Need temporary worker card (YES! YES! YES!). No amnesty. We differ, he supported amnesty

Kerry: middle classes not making it b/c of gas, drugs etc wiping out middle classes. wealthy profiting

pres promised to reform, and did not. bad border problems. i will fix it. temp workers not enuf. crack down on illegal hiring. Kerry argues that if you have been here and working you should get citizenship (yes!)

Bush: you don't know what you are talking about

Kerry: our borders leak like a sieve and i will fix it.

[pepperdog]

W says Kerry doesn't understand how the borders work, it is outrageous. Now Kerry says 4,000 come across the border, a few minutes ago it was 8,000, wow W is really workin fast

[Kitty Mittens]

I just noticed that! He did it with a stupid grin on his face while our Dubya was refuting his lies!

[Otta B Sleepin]

4,000 people/day coming across the border.

My take: and we're registering them all Democrat.

[fourscore]

Schiefer asks about IMMIGRATION YESSSS!!!!!
Bush: sees it as a security, economic, and human rights issue. He was a border governor. Many people coming for economic reasons. Bush pushes virtual amnesty. This will cheese off the base. This is a loser issue. Bush says it is not amnesty.
Kerry: Ignores issue. Goes pack to decreasing take home pay. Kerry scoring with average Joe on this. Kerry says he will toughen up the borders. Wants to crack down on illegal hiring. He is scoring with average Joe. Bush dropped the ball on this UGGGHHHH!
Bush: says Borders are much better protected than before 9/11. Mentions Chechens. Ouch!
Bush 6, Kerry 5, Tied 2

[Shermy]

Kerry won the border debate. Though he's vague.

[cyborg]

LOL

[ohioWfan]

Our prayers ARE working!

The LIES are being exposed to the American people.

[AFPhys]

just goes to show that sKerry doesn't udnerstand what we've dong at the bordere....

[Lil'freeper]

"Earned Legalizaton"="Amnesty"

Ergo Kerry is for Amnesty.

And he's gonna heal the border.

[Joe Hadenuf]

next question.......LOL

[tame]

at this point, i think the 2nd debate was the best for W.

btw, did W bring up ANWR in relation to gas prices? i wish he would.

[pgkdan]

OK...You're wrong. Bush is confident and controlled. He has the facts at his disposal and he's showing it. He has that effete, effeminate french creep rocked back on his heels.
