Palin / Biden debate Afghanistan @ Washington University

[atoz25]

Biden kicks ass.

[brainslurper]

over emphasis on your words does not make you correct palin

[conzaradikal]

Where's Iraq?

[frankgrimes17]

I dont like Palin, but if Biden said this back then, then why are we surging in Afghanistan now?

[colezuk85]

shes so stupid, does she know whats going on in afghanistan SHE SURE DOES!!! theres a PTA bake sale!

[52appaZ]

she needs to squat

[loquatiousbadger]

Fighting terrorists AND killing civillians, oh and friendly fire. Busy work in the army.

[dolfandan]

Don't care for Biden...but who cares if he got botox.

[Fersommling]

Looks like a little Botox took care of that famous scowl, eh, Joe?

[loubayou]

He says we spent more during 3 weeks in Iraq than total in Afghanistan. In 2008, we that would be $9B for 3 weeks in Iraq, yet, the total for Afghanistan is near $180B.

We need to spend more money on the infrastructure in Afghanistan. Look, we have spent more money -- we spend more money in three weeks on combat in Iraq than we spent on the entirety of the last seven years that we have been in Afghanistan building that country."

[jonathan1stewart]

And more money on schools . . . an alternative to the madrases. Ignorance of the world is institutionalized over there. We need to provide an alternative to win their hearts and minds.

[KwautLizard]

I live in Vietnam ... I ask you to please never use that term 'Hearts & Minds' ever ever again. Just the hint of it, I find offensive. REALLY!

[jonathan1stewart]

My point exactly . . .

[KwautLizard]

Understood ... thanks.

[StevenShields29]

I don't know how anyone can believe anything such a compulsive liar would say...but I do have to admit, he looks evil, kind of like the devil, after his botox, it really creeps me out. It's those eyes...Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

[JiveDadson]

The Drudge-linked article from Oct 13 is right. He's had botox or something. His corrugator and frontalis muscles are frozen. When he tries to look stern, all that happens is that his eyes squint (orbicularis oculi). No, I'm not a face doctor, nor do I play one on YouTube. I'm a portrait painter. :-)

[pamscott7]

Holy Crap! How can you debate a man who knowingly, flat out lies? You can't argue with insanity. biden and Obamessiah are the worst candidates in over a century. The #1 and #3 most liberal members of the lowest rated senate in history. God help us!

[biboibaggins2005]

Palin is the new Reagan.  Go Palin Go. Keep up the faith. Don't let the dems take us back to the Jimmy Carter era....high taxes, gas shortages, and double digit inflation. Let's stick with the Reagan revolution that brought about all of the recent prosperity INCLUDING that during the "clinton years".

[MakeItJungle]

Um, did anyone else notice that Palin referred to general Mclellan (!) That's a CIVIL WAR general. The guys name is McKiernan. Eesh. And she said it more than once... Oh my goodness gracious. You know, I think McCain has some interesting ideas and policies. I don't think he's all bad, and he's certainly not another Bush. BUT IF HE DIES, and this lady becomes president? WTF!? I feel like I'm taking CRAZY PILLS....

[joyful2326]

um, did you notice that Biden referred to war spending in Iraq in 1 week equals war spending in Afghanistan from the last 6 years? Palin's mistake is silly. Biden just outrageously lies. Biden deliberately REPEATED and wanted EVERYONE'S attention of this outrageous statement THREE TIMES. that's only one lie, there are countless others.

[MakeItJungle]

Ha... the video is right there, and you've still misquoted him. He said (more than once) that we spend more in THREE weeks on COMBAT in Iraq than we have in the last 6.5 years BUILDING Afghanistan. Their point on the matter that I've also heard from Obama has been and is that we defeated the Taliban in Afghanistan, and then all but abandoned rebuilding that country in to a stable regime before turning attention to Iraq. Now the Taliban is stronger than it was before.

[Shlomo789]

warning : Yahweh will destroy American economy more and more if America will not invade northern pakistan as soon as possible .......

[toughterrier]

Obama as President isn't so bad. He belives in the Bush Doctrine of pre-emtive war - his words about attacking Pakistan without consulting them. He is now saying 16 months for "combat troops" to be out of Iraq not support and training troops which is what Bush is doing without a date certain. He is for expanding the war in Afganistan. So it will be good to have a continuation of the Bush Doctrine under an Obama. Biden is the problem - hack and air bag!

[CanadianTakeOnIt]

Sad, sad, sad.......I'm so glad this transparent bimbo was chosen for VP on Mcsame's ticket.

She is killing Mccain's chances thank god.

Did you know that over 80% of people outside of the United States would vote for Obama.

Why? Because he is highly educated. We, outside the United States see the GOP for what they really. War mongering racists.

Wake up my America. The GOP needs to be destroyed at the polling booth.

[joyful2326]

do you also know that the ENEMIES of the United States would LOVE Obama to be president as well? Hamas publicly stated fondness of Obama as well as Nations of Islam did so as well.

[SCE2AUX]

"Again, we spend in three weeks on combat missions in Iraq, more than we spent in the entire time we have been in Afghanistan."

BULLSHIT, Joe. You're off by a factor of TWENTY.

[missycop133]

Joe Biden for V.P. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[eksdem]

JOE BIDEN is The FACT WHISPERER

Facts listen to Joe Biden when he commands them to -

"Play Dead!"

"Roll over!"

"Stand on your head!"

"Scram!"

[joyful2326]

can someone explain to me how Biden got away with lies after lies in the debate??? not just logical errors but factual errors. This is the most biased media coverage of presidential election ever lmao

[SCE2AUX]

Biden lies so often that they are hard to distinguish.

[joyful2326]

but then again, this is typical of their supporters; even when facts stare at them in the face, they will still follow the media and ignore records. Oh, but when it comes to obama's opponents, media will expose the most trivial detail about them lol. Even Fox!

[chris42424]

An accusation, but no examples? No proof? Ah. You must be a conservative.

[joyful2326]

chris42424 you are the epitome of a typical ignorant left wing supporter lmao do some research on fact check groups and you'll find biden spoke of 14 lies and 16 exaggerations. I don't even know where to begin! LOL again, do your research from third party sources. you sound pathetic

[LancerJak]

...........Lincoln, Kennedy, Palin.

[kavay71]

SHE IS A BUG.

[imrational]

Palin brought up Afghanistan herself... and in my eyes, it cost her the debate. Biden slammed it home.

for what it's worth, I was a McCain supporter until Palin and the Bailout.

I'm voting Libertarian.

[canadianzainab]

Glittering generalitieeeessss!!! This lady's talks have no substance.  She sounds like such an unsmart doofus.

I would cry if she became my country's vice president.
