Watchin' the debate

Drinking game anybody?

I'm drinking a whole bottle of wine, if either one says "I'll get back to ya on that one."

Eta:

Ding.
-1 to Obama for saying "Main Street". That's just my little pet peeve.

9:07
Ah! They're even!
-1 to McCain for Main Street.

I need a drink.

9:36
Poor Jim Lehrer. Will they answer his question?

He needs a drink!

9:45
Ooh. Slam. Lookin' like a jerk there?

Also, pork barrel spending..

McCain has one!

Make that 2!

Make that 3! McCain loves to dig pork barrels!

And Barry uses the same idea, but they are earmarks... obama's mentioned them about 4 times.

[identity profile] lisette-1528.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
Good Idea!!! Let's see, what other phrases???? "Corruption" "American Worker" "Let's be clear"

Hehehe too bad I can't drink right now...

[identity profile] zihuatanejo.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Every time McCain says "Friends"

[identity profile] lisette-1528.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Or Obama says "Tax Cuts"

Or Voting records

Or Alternative energy

For every reference for his time as a POW.


"Maverick"

Oh, wait, just did it!

OMG, did you see the PM I just sent you? Great minds think alike! ;-)

[identity profile] chargirlgenius.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Trying to pull it up now.

[identity profile] dona-violante.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
I thought of you the moment I heard it. Until I read your rant about Main vs Wall Streets, I hadn't even noticed the phrase, and now I am hearing it *everywhere*.

[identity profile] noxcat.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
Same here. But my problem with is trying to find someone who lives on this mythical Main Street. Most of my associates are too educated or actually have stocks to fit there.

[identity profile] chargirlgenius.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry! ;-)

[identity profile] zihuatanejo.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Drink every time they say main street? It's not even thirty minutes in and you've gotta be hammered!

[identity profile] chargirlgenius.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
I'll just groan, I think. I'm making patterns. Wonder what they'd look like if I got hammered on "main street"?

i don't imagine mccain's tie would have improved. who let him go on tv with that? i couldn't look at him.

Eliminate Cost Plus contracting?

[identity profile] jurgenzuvols.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Fixed cost contracts destroy defense subcontractors. Lockheed won't bid firm fixed, they'll sit on their hands first. McCain is crazy!

No government spending except defense and a few other key things. The Washigton DC economy would collapse. What is he thinking???

Re: Eliminate Cost Plus contracting?

[identity profile] jurgenzuvols.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... you work for department of commerce... you're frozen... Who needs commerce...
or agriculture?
or parks...

Yes, I think what he just said is "non-DoD federal contractors are at risk of losing their jobs if they vote for me." :-/

Re: Eliminate Cost Plus contracting?

[identity profile] jurgenzuvols.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... I think so... Of course, the government employees get paid eventually, regardless of whether they are asked to show up at work, or stay home...

Re: Eliminate Cost Plus contracting?

[identity profile] chargirlgenius.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
Yay! Let's just not spend money!

That'll be great for the economy. At least we'll eat. Everybody else want to come over for dinner?

Sure, but for now, I'm going to go grab my cheap whiskey flask, and a jug of OJ.

[identity profile] lisette-1528.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
OMG

That's a new one..... "orgy of spending"

[identity profile] chargirlgenius.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Oooh, missed that. Who said that one?

[identity profile] lisette-1528.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Obama... I was sipping Coke at the time. My nose still burns.... :D

[identity profile] lisette-1528.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry, but one of my worst pet peeves is someone who interupts another while they are speaking. It's just rude, and Obama has done it every single time McCain has been given time to speak.

Does he not realize that this is a debate, and he WILL get his turn to talk???

"Let me just say this...." Grrr... that makes me twitch.

What do you all think of Barry's makeup?

[identity profile] jurgenzuvols.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
The purple highlights, and the lipstick?

[identity profile] isabelladangelo.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
the word "fundamental" came up too many times to bother counting through the debate. If you just took a sip for every time either candidate said that word, in some form, you'd be done with the bottle in about 10 minutes...
