Basically our favorite clown said he would call the debate and give a scorecard. Now he says that would be too haughty. Basically because EVERYONE knows Kerry won.

:D

Read the transcript. Bush clearly won on substance.

But after watching it on TV, Kerry creamed Bush on style. He was very polished ... but he didn't say much.

Bush had alot of good points, but I just wanted to smack him and say "spit it out already".

"Uh...um...uh..." is substance?

Most Americans disagree with you but even if you're right, it doesn't justify the O'Reilly flip-flop.

"Who still takes this guy seriously?"

Clearly you do, Infohawk. It's not like I started this thread.

What debate were you watching? Bush had very little to say beyond waving the flag and talking about fighting evil. I did in fact read the transcript, and while Kerry didn't answer all my questions about his plans, I got a much better idea of where he stands. Bush, on the other hand, failed to bring a coherent plan about anything to the table. If you read carefully, most of what he talks about are broad ideas (like fighting evil) but he never gets specific, because I believe the facts are against him.

That doesn't mean he doesn't have those plans, I don't believe he's as stupid as he's made out to be, but that debate certainly didn't showcase them.

No, you just responded to it and bumped it. :roll: And nice assumption that posting a thread means you take something seriously. :thumbsdown:

Stop wimpering and justify the flip-flop if you can.

Justify it?!? Why? I don't even watch the guy. You're the one with the weird O'Reilly obsession. Show me where I've ever brought him up in any thread. Good luck!!

I stopped taking him seriously when he started saying "the will of the people" when referring to laws that are overturned by "left-wing judges."

You're right. I don't watch O'Reilly much any more, but if he promised it, he should produce.

You are veering wildly off-topic. If you don't care about O'Reilly (or think he's a dope), don't post. ;)

You might try the same, pal. Good advice to me is even better advice to you.

Uh...Infohawk was merely pointing out the hypocrisy in O'Reilly's actions. He's now a flip-flopper.

If you don't care about O'Reilly, why are you posting in this thread?

I already do follow my own advice. :roll: I don't post in threads I don't care about. Since you don't care about O'Reilly or seem to think he's a dope, don't post. I think he's a dope, so I'm posting. What part of that don't you understand? ;)

Stop acting like a panzy and justify the flip-flop. Or are you too scared?

I don't have to "justify" anything, as I did not "flip-flop" on anything; and, for the record, how about trying to come up with something original....the Republicans have already played the flip-flop-card...as usually, you guys just borrow from their ideas and lack originality of your own...pretty sad, if you think about it.
