I dont know for sure. I plan to TRY but I <\/p>\n<p>really like how Obama talks about stuff so I have a bit of a soft spot for the guy. And I cant even think of one thing where i have really <\/p>\n<p>paid attention to McCain (oh dear&#8230;..) so yeah. I apologise if i get all Obama happy on you all! Please dont hate me Republicans!<\/p>\n<p>first question &#8211; where do you stand on the recovery&#8230;i thought they both say nice things first up but did mccain ANSWER???<br \/>\ni liked what he said about the greedy lil money makers taking responsibility and being held accountable.<br \/>\nbut obama &#8211; you rock&#8230;.i agree with you too &#8211; they should have accountability even when things are going well, not just during a  <\/p>\n<p>crisis. <\/p>\n<p>fundamental differences on how to solve the financial crisis. the wasteful spending on is it earmarks?? that mccain wants to cut <\/p>\n<p>back on sounds good, but the tax cuts obama wants to do for the lil people instead of the big money makers sounds good too. cant you <\/p>\n<p>both do those? \ud83d\ude00 <br \/>\nwhat the heck is pork barrel spending? ah <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pork_barrel\">thanks wikipedia<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>i agree with Obama that they shouldnt have gone into Iraq.<br \/>\nIraq is such a touchy subject. i dont like the war at all but as long as troops are there you gotta support them. <br \/>\nomgawd so funny &#8211; obama is talking right at mccain about where he was wrong about stuff in iraq and mccain is refusing to look at him. <\/p>\n<p>lols <\/p>\n<p>in fact Obama is more willing to look straight at McCain and say stuff but mcCain never does it back. makes him look a bit wimpy i think. <\/p>\n<p>okay its really frustrating me the way McCain always takes something Obama says and goes &#8216;look he said this &#8211; and its wrong because&#8230;&#8217; &#8211; dude you are twisting what he is saying. its driving me nuts! <\/p>\n<p>most of the debate is about foreign policy stuff. its really interesting. good ol&#8217; oz only has a very small area of influence in the <\/p>\n<p>world&#8230;.america has an impact on the whole planet. its crazy. i feel sorry for the people who run the US and have to deal with this stuff.<br \/>\nand that the american people cant just vote for someone who will look after them at home, but also on an international level. <\/p>\n<p>anyways overall i thought they both had awesome points. McCain definately knows his foreign policy stuff, though i think Obama is <\/p>\n<p>gonna be more diplomatic when dealing with problem nations and helping to garner respect from other nations around the world. <\/p>\n<p>\nlike the VP debate &#8211; i seriously believe anyone on the fence is gonna have a really tough choice. <\/p>\n<p>onto the second debate:<br \/>\n<object width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/VkBqLBsu-o4&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><\/object><\/p>\n<p>after taking almost 24 hours to get this to load i am too lazy to give  comments to specific questions. just giving an overall comment.<\/p>\n<p>It could be bias but the way McCain creeps around and goes up to the person who asked the question but then wanders back and <\/p>\n<p>forth&#8230;.he is giving me the heeby jeebies. sorry McCain dude. <\/p>\n<p>seriously these debates are a shocker&#8230;if you like McCain then you are gonna love what he says, if you like Obama you&#8217;re gonna love <\/p>\n<p>what he says.<br \/>\ni dunno i feel like McCain isnt really answering the questions half the time.<\/p>\n<p>hmm &#8211; 90% of what they are saying was already said in the first debate and i am getting annoyed with them both.<\/p>\n<p>lol the end made me laugh where they both got in the moderators way.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.galacticmuffin.net\/day17\/2008\/10\/first-2-debates-i-swear-the-interweb-hates-me\/?share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email this to a friend\"><span>Email<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-2868\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.galacticmuffin.net\/day17\/2008\/10\/first-2-debates-i-swear-the-interweb-hates-me\/?share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\"><span>Twitter<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-tumblr\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-tumblr sd-button share-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.galacticmuffin.net\/day17\/2008\/10\/first-2-debates-i-swear-the-interweb-hates-me\/?share=tumblr\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Tumblr\"><span>Tumblr<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-pinterest-2868\" class=\"share-pinterest sd-button share-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.galacticmuffin.net\/day17\/2008\/10\/first-2-debates-i-swear-the-interweb-hates-me\/?share=pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Pinterest\"><span>Pinterest<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-print\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-print sd-button share-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.galacticmuffin.net\/day17\/2008\/10\/first-2-debates-i-swear-the-interweb-hates-me\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to print\"><span>Print<\/span><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#\" class=\"sharing-anchor sd-button share-more\"><span>More<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"sharing-hidden\"><div class=\"inner\" style=\"display: none;\"><ul><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-2868\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.galacticmuffin.net\/day17\/2008\/10\/first-2-debates-i-swear-the-interweb-hates-me\/?share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\"><span>Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-reddit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-reddit sd-button share-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.galacticmuffin.net\/day17\/2008\/10\/first-2-debates-i-swear-the-interweb-hates-me\/?share=reddit\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Reddit\"><span>Reddit<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><li class=\"share-linkedin\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-linkedin-2868\" class=\"share-linkedin sd-button share-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.galacticmuffin.net\/day17\/2008\/10\/first-2-debates-i-swear-the-interweb-hates-me\/?share=linkedin\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on LinkedIn\"><span>LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"excerpt\">These took FOREVER to download.
