Are people really trying to spin it that way?

Trying?

If we have a woman in charge all the other nations will be easy to deal with because their leaders will be sheepishly attempting to woo her.

John McCain please do the right thing and have a stroke sometime in February 09.

Because this totally worked for Chancellor Merkel.

Quote

Angela Dorothea Merkel (help·info) (IPA: [ˈaŋɡela doʁoˈteːa ˈmɛɐ̯kəl]) (born Angela Dorothea Kasner, 17 July 1954, in Hamburg, West Germany), is the Chancellor of Germany.

Quote

Merkel is the first female Chancellor of Germany. She is considered by Forbes Magazine to be the "most powerful woman in the world at the present time".

I for one welcome the Fourth Amazon Reich.

Guys, Palin won the debate because she seemed like a complete idiot before and she actually did a little better than we expected.

So she improved more and therefore deserves to run the most powerful nation in the world.

It's a good thing Biden wasn't too hard on her, either. He could've been seen as being a bully to someone who is going to be expected to defend our country from terrorists. That'd be mean and unfair and maybe even sexist! I'm glad he toned it down a bit like a gentleman.

this post sounds like the spin

Will try to do the same thing again tonight.

Incidentally, we beat Daily Show to the "Should the ocean floor have to pay for its own rape kit?" joke. Pat yourselves on the back.

Yeah, I noticed that. Couldn't be happier.

...I wonder if maybe Brentai is really John Oliver.

Brentai · « **Reply #130 on:** October 07, 2008, 12:41:55 PM »

...I didn't make that joke. But I did notice it repeated on DS.

Kayma · « **Reply #131 on:** October 07, 2008, 12:49:54 PM »

I made it. But I know I'M not John Oliver.

Or am I?

I know it's one of the more frivolous points I could raise first, but apparently McCain is once again refusing to actually look at Obama.

Ostriches, when frightened, will stick their head in the ground. The idea is they think that if they can't see it, the danger isn't there.

Joxam · « **Reply #136 on:** October 07, 2008, 06:18:44 PM »

I know this is a bit nitpicky, as, its an old saying and all, but no, they don't.

"...Facing challenges from countries where we don't even know where they are on the map."

I still can't believe he actually said that. No, Mc[Appropriately Terrible Pun], we kick ass at this.

Doom · « **Reply #138 on:** October 07, 2008, 06:38:35 PM »

I for one look forward to one day viewing a finished globe. I always find the holes to be very disconcerting.

Thad · « **Reply #139 on:** October 07, 2008, 06:38:50 PM »

Whole thing came across as a major waste of time IMO. Of course, I'm getting a cold and didn't have any beer tonight, so that doesn't help.

Pretty much nothing illuminating or worthwhile; I'd give a slight edge to McCain, but really the most memorable point was Brokaw repeatedly telling them to stick to the fucking time limit. Will be interesting to see how it plays out in the coverage and polls.
