WEAK? Cheney talked about attendence. Edwards talked about actual votes on topics that I would think matter to million of Americans. Against a Martin Luther King Holiday, against banning plastic weapons that can pass through metal detectors, against meals on wheels, against Head Start, against Department of Education? Please Cheney was so destroyed he had no response.

Are you kidding? We were all just laughing about that!

5 million people don't have to pay income taxes...probably because they don't have jobs to need to pay taxes with!!!

They are owning each other. Cheney scores a point, then Edwards comes back and nails him on the next question. Back and forth we go.

Exactly...that was a terrible comeback by Cheney.....they can't afford to pay their taxes cuz they don't have a job, dumbass.

 

[Fritzo]

Maybe Kerry and Edwards should use Clinton's health care plan to bring costs down and....oh....wait.....

edit: Edwards will mention his growing up in a mill, etc.

I don't believe he mentioned anything regarding that.

I'm surprised he didn't. Kudos

So, where is this money coming from Mr Edwards? How can you cut the deficit in half by only increasing taxes for the rich and closing a few loopholes?

 

[Engineer]

Best answer by Edwards all night (on the budget, taxes and cutting the deficit in half in 4 years)!

 

[Ninepepper]

tax cuts for everybody

Hey Cheney, thanks for the tax cut. Because my taxes went down, I now have to pay the AMT so in the long run I pay more in taxes.

LOL "closing a few loopholes". Have you ever heard of something called the Cayman Islands? Well please read up on how this simple "loophole" still kept in place by the current administration has sucked billions of dollars from the United States in taxes.
