"I own a lumber mill? :confused, looking around: news to me!........(looks at the audience) Need some wood?

(yah i kno someone said it up some posts) that was the funniest thing i think ive hever heard on live tv from someone that isn't a comedian.

I think im votin for bush just on that note now.. BAHAHAHA

The wood joke was funny...but, he does in fact, list a tree growing company on his financial disclosure. Check out factcheck.org for the details.

Edit: heres the article for the whole debate
Fact Check

Synopsis of Bush's answers last night:
"Yes, no, yes, no, kick thier a$$, don't mess with Texas....want some wood?" I bet Kerry insulted some people asking the questions last night when he insinuated that only he, Bush and the moderator made over $200,000 a year. What,he thinks everyone in Missouri lives in mobile homes and works at the Piggly Wiggly? I wish we had a "moron" icon. ...and as the other post stated, he never answered a question. My favorite line was" I'm a lawyer too. And John Edwards and I have a plan for tort reform."





...yeah, sue everybody.

WTF is the Piggly Wiggly?

A Grocery Store chain in mostly the Deep South and tends to be in very small towns that can't support today's big super stores.

Piggly Wiggly owns you.

That Bush was NOT stuck behind a podium that came up to his chin (while Kerry was tall enough to have the podium come up to his belly) was a MAJOR improvement for Bush. This time, Bush did not look like a head mounted on a podium, contantly shown in split screen.

Both debaters were lean on specifics. No big surprise there. But as many of Bush's responses were recitations on his resolve and vision and optimism, his stay the course lines and how he'll leave it to history to judge his mistakes, still leaves him vulnerable. Neither guy got a TKO, and it seems the judges' cards don't agree on the punches thrown/landed and rounds won.

But this one has to help Bush (and a few Bush fans here) feel better about how he'll do at the next one.


Only one more for all the partisans to sweat it out through, and then the superior funds available for Bush will kick in with a TV ad blitz. There must be a few Bush ads about to roll out that are better than those now running, and Kerry will have trouble responding in kind to the new ads. Even if the legitimacy of the election in Afghanistan is contested and turns messy in a week or two, Bush is still better than 50-50 to win.

We had a Piggly Wiggly in the town I grew up in in Wisconsin. The pig on their marquee gave me nightmares and haunted my youth.

I was completely shocked by Kerry's rendition of Michael J. Fox....the fact that insensitive prick would stand there and shake his own body as he described Fox was absolutely disgusting. I hope Foxs people get on the horn and make him appologize!
