Please Obamabot!

Stop copying my words!

Obamabot! I said Venezuela first!

Obamabot is on the loose, stealing ideas and policies from each and every blog and politician (Main Street/Wall Street).

Obamabot is the new Bill Gates...takes the credit...steals the idea...

Go back to trolling VB forums.

But, if it makes him look stupid a la the Howard Dean scream and that means it's that much more likely that Obama wins... well... fine.

Frankly, McCain's countless different crazy-faces during last night's debates were not endearing to me, but moreso worrisome. That man has a horrible poker-face. He wears his thinly-veiled frustration and anger like a spoiled five-year-old trying to hold back his screams of indignation.

A man with an inability to control his emotions or expressions, a man whose silent responses go from Bug-Eyed-Crazy to Bug-Eyed-Insane and back again, is not someone I want representing my country to the rest of the world. it is not someone I would want in the role of negotiator.

What you may see as an endearingly-wacky expression I see as an obnoxious loss of control and mannerisms unbecoming of someone who represents our nation.

You just very eloquently explained my feelings on McCain last night in a way I've been grasping for since the first debate. Thank you!

Rewind the videotape in your Betamax and have another look.

McCain composed a thoughtful answer.

Obama began his response by EXACTLY repeating the answer McCain created!

I didn't say that his expressions during the debate were cute/endearing. Just the one in the picture. I thought the weird expressions and bug-eyes during the debate made him look crazy.

the first thing that popped into my mind when i saw this picture was that mccain was going in for an obama-grope. tongue out, hands reaching...ew.

but still, i agree with julie. it's just a bad picture. kind of a cheap shot.
