PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE #2 LIVE THREAD
10/07/08
Posted on 10/07/2008 2:01:24 PM PDT by TornadoAlley3
While the two presidential candidates, Senators John McCain and Barack Obama, prepare for their second debate on Oct. 7 at Belmont University in Nashville, Tom Brokaw gets to sift through questions submitted by you. In addition to queries from a group randomly selected by the Gallup organization, Brokaw will be fielding questions submitted online at mydebates.org, the site created by the Commission on Presidential Debates and Myspace. The focus of the town hall-style debate will be domestic and foreign policy, Brokaw's specialties.

Retired Navy Chief asked the first decent question.
It Israel attacked would we support them immediately or wait for a UN security Council Resolution.
McCain says... NOW!
To: TornadoAlley3
"Yes" or "no" question on Russia.
"Maybe" response excellent by McCain.

Question on support for Israel from a retired CPO.
McCain’s pats retired CPO on shoulder.
Says all he learned about leadership he learned from a CPO.

Fabulous question: Act unilaterally to defend Israel or wait for the UN Security Council?
McCain giving a great answer. He just won more Florida votes, which matters, and a few New York votes, which won't be enough.

The Chief asked the first really good question all night!
To: WilliamReading
Careful, the “Palin is becoming sexualized!” crowd will lynch you for daring to comment on her appearance.

Yes it is the place for him to get angry. It's all on the line tonight. Calm and passive isn't going to win against Obambi's smooth line of bullsh--.
He's losing the election tonight, I really do believe that. He's not challenging Obambi, and he's letting him get away with everything.

The only thing I honestly remember Obama saying about Foreign Aid in numerous speeches is that he wants to DOUBLE FOREIGN AID. As in DOUBLE it across the board!

“Oh that we had a conservative debating the ObiMessiah!”
Yeah, even a Chi-com lovin’, EPA startin’, wage and price fixin’ obstructor of justice like Nixon could rip Obama apart. Face it, McCain is basically a hawkish Democrat.

Finally a good question from a Navy guy! (Would you support Israel if Iran attacked it without waiting for UN approval)

We don’t do MSNBC, the DUmp has them on lock and we don’t give them the clicks.
To: HonestConservative
McCain shakes hands and pats the Chief on the back--great moment.
National Security/Military Issues: This is where McCain shines and where Obama's touchy-feely 'change' crap falls apart.
To: Windcatcher
He is clueless. Thats why he was going to scrap NAFTA when we get 50% of our oil from Canada and Mexico

"HEY OBAMA! YES, YOU, YOU MORON! RUSSIA SHIPS OIL TO EUROPE, NOT THE UNITED STATES!!! Does the idiot think the Russians beam it to us or something?"
LOL
Yeah; he just thinks he'll hit 'em with the windfall profits tax like U.S. Business, and then use that to fund more wealth redistribution!~
