Cheney certainly seems more confident then Bush was, although that is hardly a revelation.

Bush and Cheney are really attacking the "global test" statement from Kerry, don't they understand that there IS a court of world opinion, to quote Stevenson, and that the U.S. is failing in that court.

Hehe, the actions of the US in Central and South America during the 80's were hardly shining examples of humanitarianism.

They are both better sparrers then their "better halves."

Edit: I guess my perception comes from their relative lack of rhetoric...they are sniping on the details.

Ahh, here comes the truth at last...Cheney also wanted to dissolve many of the same weapons systems that Kerry did.

It looks like it's gonna be "flip-flop" all the way through.

Cheney repeating himself just like Bush....Edwards keeps calling Cheney liar just like Kerry did

It's like a mini-me of the first debate (I guess that's to be expected)

errrr, Cheney just said our coalition in the current Iraq war was equal to the 1991 gulf war coalition? What's he smoking? Poland is not Germany or France or Spain or etc.

Not to mention that a normal person who doesn't "flip flop" is consdiered a stubborn asshole.

off topic: The more Cheney talks, the more constipated he looks.

Lets ignore Iraq. Lets ignore no WMD's. Lets ignore 200 billion. Lets ignore no Osama. Lets ignore no connection between 9/11 and Iraq. The only thing that is important here is that Kerry is inconsistent, therefore vote Bush again.

So is Edwards suggesting we invade Iran? I just want a clarification about that. However, we do have two able launching platforms to strike quickly and furiously in a pincer move upon Iran...

Where Bush and Kerry seemed to be civil and actually respect each other... Cheney looks like he wants to kill Edwards. He keeps with these "you dumbass snot nosed kid" looks. And Edwards looks like he wants to say "bring it Dick".

I don't know these 2 men are showing me they are both hotheads (Cheney by far moreso).

Makes me glad it's Kerry and Bush and not Cheney and Edwards.

My take Cheney is a very greedy, angry man who does not like to be questioned and is constantly on the attack. Edwards is a little laidback homey type that is prepared to defend what he believes in.

IMHO ONLY..... IT's like watching a self righteous Archie Bunker debating Sheriff Andy Taylor. No matter how deep a hole Cheney/Archie refuses to accept any responsibility for anything. And Edwards/Andy is trying a down home folksy approach but can't get to a point and hammer it down.

Think Kerry and Bush need to switch running mates to match their style better.

Kerry/Cheney vs. Bush/Edwards

Cheney is owning this debate, he keeps putting Edwards in his place. It is so funny to see Edwards keep trying to interupt.

Edwards theatrics are amazing. He must think he is in the court room.
He comes off so fake.

Realistically there is no way we could win a conventional war against Iran by ourselves. Considering the nuclear capabilities of Iran you can pretty much kiss Jerusalem goodbye if we invade Iran.

Yep...taxes are about percentages of income, not gross amounts.

Neither one of these guys wants to back gay marriage.

Edit: Would marriage by any other name smell as sweet?
