Thread: Debate Questions

Since the Presidential debate is coming up. What would be the one question you would ask Bush and Kerry.

Mine would be.

For Bush

Since you declared that the war in Iraq ended over a year ago, what would you say to the parents, wifes and childern of the soldiers who have been killed in Iraq since you declared the war won?


For Kerry

You have stated that President Bush has done a poor job at managing the economy and the war in Iraq. What would you have done differently and why should we believe this would be any more effective than what President Bush has done?

I would ask Kerry if I could borrow his Sun Valley pass.

I bet those debates are going to be as interesting as watching eggs fry. There is a 35 page agreement that outlines what they can and cant say, or can and cant talk about, what they can and can wear, what they can and cant make reference to. For instance, if one of the candidates says vietnam...The debate will be over. Its too bad really, I was looking forward to watching them actually slug it out, but I guess thats too much to hope for.

Bush - Originally we went into Iraq because you considered they were an "imminent threat" to the US because of WMD's. Then it was because of the Al Qaeda connection (cough "flip-flop"). Now its because Sadam was a brutal dictator (cough "flip-flop"). Since WMD's have not been found and there really is no link to Al Qaeda that threatened the US it seems that now the only reason we went into Iraq was because Sadam was a brutal dictator. First, why could we not have not learned the first two reasons were false before we went to war with Iraq? Second since the only factual reason we are in Iraq is because Sadam was a brutal dictator, how come we did not go into Iran or N. Korea because the also have brutal dictators and either have WMD's or are actively pursuing them?

Kerry - You originally voted For NAFTA and now you are against it. Why the change in opinion? By the way I liked the picture of your daughter (or is it Edward's daughter) in the black dress.

Sure the question's are biased, but then I have already made up my mind.

Anyone watch the Daily Show last night? Bush's interview with O'Reilly was hilarious. O'Reilly was praising Bush for answering questions that "weren't scripted, weren't planned, and answering 'off the cuff.'" What a jackass.

Bush- how has male chreerleading made you into the man you are today?

Kerry- Do you need any quality work done on your beacon hill townhouse? i know a guy......

Same question for both:
What exactly will the world look like when we have won the war on terror and how exactly are you going to achieve this?

Question to both:

Both of your parties have intelligent, respectable, experienced members.

So how in the hell did you two knuckleheads end up being the nominees? I mean, come on. The kid's on the local Jr. High student council are probably better choices for President than you two fartstains.

Yes, but did said Jr. High Student Council member serve in Vietnam?


My question would be to both.

The situation in the Darfur region, Sudan has reached a point that by any reasonable measure would be called genocide. President Bush, you have let the UN handle the situation and the international community has praised the administration's handling of this "situation". Stressing US's ability to work within the bounds of the UN and International Law.

There are 50,000 dead and counting. What will be done to stop this? UN condemnations don't seem to be working.

Anyone watch Conan last night? I love it when he has these guys on the screen with only the mouthes moving.

Bush: "word rodeo"

To both candidates:

Tits or ass and why? Each candidate will have three minutes to respond.

Bush

Could I get your daughters phone number?


Kerry

So why the long face John? It'll get longer in November.

Qs for both:

How do YOU intend to stop runaway budget exepnditures?
How do YOU intend to pay down/pay off the national debt?
What are you going to do to curb and reverse unfunded Federal mandates?
If you were trapped on a desert island and could select either Club International or a Jenna Jamison retrospective, which would you choose and why?

for bush- do you love Dicks gay daughter? and if you do, how does god feel about that?

for kerry- you want to teach me how to kite board?

Fuck that. Here's what should be asked:

Does Dick's Gay daughter love Gephardt's gay daughter? Do either of them love Alan Keyes' gay daughter? Have the twins ever gotten involved after enough drinks (aka - 8pm)? And.... have ya got pictures?

I think the writers from the Daily Show are the only true winners in the current Presidential election. I remember listening to a political cartoonist explaining how he was always torn at election time. He had to choose between the candidate that would be the best for the job and the candidate that would provide the most material for political cartoons. Don't think that will be the problem this time with the two major choices for 2004.

For Bush,

Our founding fathers said "Those who would give up liberty for security deserve neither. Given that maxim, and that America is supposed to be an example of liberty and freedom, how can you justify your continued support for opressive laws such as the USA Patriot Act and the Domestic Security Enhancement Act despite constant defeats by the courts that find such draconian measures unconstitutional?

I'd ask him the same thing! (I've been wondering if he even knows or has a plan.)

I rescind my previous questions in favor of this... and the T&A questions.

The Daily show has made great gains. The Main Stream Media (the three major TV networks), Newsweek and Time, and the Gray Lady have shown exactly how close they are to extinction.

The interweb is kicking their collective asses and rubbing their proverbial faces in the dirt.

Totally agree. I will be laughing through the debate every time the word fartstain pops into my head.

Did you know that last night's debate was a foreign polity debate?

Here is a question for Mr. Bush:

"Mr. President, are you working hard?"
"Yes, I am working hard!"
"No, seriously, are you working hard?"
"Yes, we are working hard for the American people"
"I just want to make sure that we are working hard"
"I can assure you that even though I made some wrong decisions, the important point is that we are working hard!"

How many times did he say last night that he is working hard!
