So You Think You Can Be President? - Debate Remix (widescreen)

A new reality television show where candidates compete for American votes!

Presidential hopefuls must present their positions on major issues in front of our live studio audience then face hard-hitting critiques from our panel of judges. Viewers at home will delight in the spectacle as candidates are challenged in ways never before seen in mainstream media.

In this week's episode, only two weeks before the election, Senator Obama and Senator McCain have their feet held to the fire over shockingly similar positions on energy and foreign policy.

Who will be this season's champion and take home the grand prize? You'll have to watch and decide for yourself, then participate in the show by casting a vote* for your favorite performer on November 4th!

@TacticusPrime Oh, and I appologize, it 3.4 million. But I said state, not states, in this case it was Florida that bought the Turtle X'ing signs for 3.4 million. Still, that is a pretty steep cost, and in my opinion (remember that word) wrongful use of the stimulus package.

[skulldugg65]

@TacticusPrime ... our country. You seem to be extremely frightened of actual facts, that may be why you lash out with name calling. Maybe you should attempt to actually listen to the news instead of watching it, because then you would of heard what each state used it's stimulus money. I believe a Government list was also released. Again, remember what I said about ignorant idiot.

[skulldugg65]

@TacticusPrime I'm sorry, I received that bit of news from CNN actually. Again, why do you find it necessary to "try" and insult people? I'm not sure if you realize you're on the internet, why take it too serious? No, I don't think it is completely Obama's fault, and as a matter of fact, there are thousands of people to blame, including ourselves. We operate as a unit, (whether or not we agree with one another beliefs) and we should all assume partial responsibility for what happens to ...

[TacticusPrime]

@skulldugg65 Oh yeah the recession is totally Obama's fault... o wait you'd have to be a complete and total moron to believe that. Congratulations. Also, you think states have spent billions on turtle crossing signs? Who told you that? Rush Limbaugh? Glenn Beck? If you're too frightened to watch real news and confront the facts of how the world works then you're going to remain stuck in the redneck shithole mindwarp that's sucked you in.

[skulldugg65]

@TacticusPrime ... Like an ignorant idiot.

[skulldugg65]

@TacticusPrime Actually, yes "unemployment" (correct term, not job loss) has slowed, but it went from it's average 4.5% to an astounding 10% (at it's highest) months after Obama entered the office. Taxes have gone down, but national debt continues to rise with stupid ideas that cost hideous amounts of money. Example, the stimulus package. Some states spent Billions! on turtle crossing signs. It may be you who is truly ignorant. Try being courteous of other peoples beliefs, you sound less...

The thing I don't understand is that Nuclear Energy is the CLEANEST forms of energy hands down.
