but Knox Bronson is an amazing porn star pseudonym. Or hard rock band (as in, Knocks Bronson).

Just had say that.

Down with Palin.

goes to show you that the game is being played on McCain's turf. Shouldn't the question be who was against the war in the first place? Remember John "It will be an easy, quick victory" McCain in the run-up to the war in 2002 and 2003?

That's where Obama's arguments need to go. That the surge is really just the only semi-intelligent maneuver made in the larger, costly (Obama must continunally link off-the-book war expenditures to the economy) and dumb war.

He sounds like a child when trying talk about finance.

We've seen his high-water mark. Let's all enjoy the fall.

A timeout. If McCain had any balls, he would NOT cancel the debate, he would rather focus the debate on the economy, not foreign policy.

So his answer to financial crisis is paralysis? Stop everything so we can figure out how best to give away taxpayer money to criminals?

Please do not let the MSM falls for this. McCain is frantically studying up on finance and economics because he has no idea what he's talking about. This is so cynical.

he would ask that the debate be changed to the economy. He would not cancel it.

Pathetic. The MSM had better not go along.

The undecideds will understand this trick for what it is if the media calls McCain on it.

One week ago you thought the "fundamentals of our economy were strong." Now you believe the situation is so dire that you are suspending your campaign. What have you learned in 7 days about the economy that has made you uniquely qualified to solve this considering your record of deregulation has in large part lead to this disaster?

Game over.

This woman MUST debate Biden. We cannot allow this no-debate-we're-in'-a-crisis bullshit to move tomorrow's presidential debate to Oct 2 and then scrub the VP debate.

She must be exposed for what she is, a total fraud.

Come on, you can do better than douchebag, can't you?

Did you see the market crash today? I didn't. This "imminent financial disaster" is being exaggerated, just like Iraqi WMD. The markets actually responded well when there appeared to be bipartisan support before McCain rode to town and shot the deal to hell. Some leader....

the media is calling this game even.

Will someone grow a pair of balls call McCain the lying, double-talking, grandstanding, back-stabbing, economic policy lightweight he is?

of the economic and financial world are recommending a bailout, and everyone is listening.

Gee, I could have sworn we were all just talking about those Ivy League elitists, how they were condescending know-it-alls who didn't understand average people.

Now everyone comes running to the "experts."

Cognitive dissonance, for this bunch of Republican hacks, knows no bounds.

the next time someone asks you what the bailout is going to force you to cut from the budget, DON'T list a bunch of things you WON'T cut, say "Iraq."

with $3 trillion?

We've pissed away over a trillion on Bush's tax cuts, about a trillion in Iraq and Afghanistan, and now maybe a trillion on Wall Street.

Forget about worst President ever. Try worst leader ever. Move over Nero, Ivan the Terrible and Pol Pot. Meet George Bush.

like cooler heads prevailed. Unless these nay voters are all hearing their office phones ring 100-1 against the bill, there must be something fishy in those hard-to-find 100 pages.

Krugman et al seemed to think there was no reason to rush this. I am thinking he was right, and maybe we'll get a better bill out of this miserable failure of Democratic House leadership.

Let me just say Rep Gillibrand, that we in New York City are tired of carrying upstate New York around like an economic anchor.

was the chance to pound the miserable AL West teams up 19 games apiece.

and these guys f*cking reek.

Well, if you can't beat 'em, might as well knee-cap 'em and reload for 2012.

The sad thing is that we've had an illegitimate pResident for the last eight years, and he's spent the political capital of about ten Presidents. And yet it's all turned out so very very bad.

Seriously, can we get Plouffe and Axelrod to run every Democratic campaign for the rest of their lives? Not to discount Obama's contribution, but these guys are just too good.

if they heard anyone yell nasty things about Obama after the MSM feasted on those reports?

Isn't that sort of like asking a bunch of arsonists who started the fire?

on a walking tour of anti-America, pinko-liberal Boston (yes, I'm a Masshole) and just point out all those sites that made America, well, America.

Palin, you got Main Street Wasilla? I'll take Bunker Hill, the Old North Church, Old Ironsides, and the oldest democratic constitution in the world (MA state constitution).

And just so you know that Northeast liberals are still fighting for "pro-American" ideals like equality before the law, we can go to city hall and watch a same sex marriage.

THAT'S America.

With a little luck for the Sox this weekend, we might just have the pro-America-est World Series ever!

You say "make it interesting" but what comes out instead "makes it terrifying".

But even against my better jesus-hope-i-don't-jinx-these-guys instincnts, I'll take that wager: loser declares undying love AND respect for Sarah Palin and FedExes one "dontaion" per week (I hear lots of snowmobiling can make you sterile anyhow) in the hopes of conjuring up just one more prop, er, kid. Hey! They can name the next one Prop Palin!

a "donation"

what would happen if the liberal "illuminati" (odd choice of words) control everything come January 2009?

let's see, we've had the conservative illuminati turning everything it touches to shit for the last 8 years.

i'd vote for the opposite of abject failure, wouldn't you?

They're losers.
