"FRIGHT NIGHT"


Folks, excuse me if I make even more typos than I usually do tonight. I am still a little winded from riding my exercise bike in preparation for my little au natural Broad Street run. Was it me or did Halloween come a couple of weeks early this year? Mr. Morton, what the fuck? I watched the debate on CNN and they had a split screen up the entire time. Honestly, Mr. Morton scared the shit out of me. That man is seriously becoming unhinged. I swear if his eyes bulge anymore they will pop out of his head. The man looked like he had a helium pump in his suit. Poor Bob Shieffer. I bet he was seriously contemplating ending that bad boy a little early for fear of his life.
Forget pumpkins this Halloween, how about a Mr. Morton likeness in every window?


Now his O ness didn't do anything earth shattering. He was his usual cool self. A little too much smiling for the kid. But I get it; A-merry-ca likes their black men to be smiling. Mr. Morton, of course, was his usual salty self. But then he could afford to be. A-merry-ca is used to grumpy old white men. In fact, we kind of like them.


But it was bad for Mr. Morton tonight. The poor guy is desperate and it showed. You know you are having a bad night when your best line is a slip of the tongue. When he called the O man "Senator Government" I had to really check to see if it was a planned line or not. That was classic. But down playing the health of a woman on the abortion issue, and saying that the average cost of health care is $5,800 per person, were gaffes that he won't be able to come back from. "Sweep out the old boy network"? Mr. Morton, have you looked in a mirror lately?



But O man I have to give it to you, you are one cool character. Always disciplined, aways sticking to your talking points. How you resisted taking a shot at the beauty queen, I have no idea. But you did. When you slammed FOX NEWS, you got me. (FOX NEWS, isn't that an oxymoron?) I would have called the debate for your ass if you sang "Mary Had a Little Lamb" the rest of the night.


So go ahead on Obamaholics, with your bad selves. I guess this will be a "Yes We Can Night" for you all. Thank goodness Mrs. Field is an Obamaholic, because this will be a "yes we can night" for the kid as well. :) Thank you O man!

YES WE CAN!

Field, McCain looked like a angry old man. He let the American people get a good look at those temper tantrums he has periodically. McCain needs to take a chill pill as my grandkids say. For a minute, I thought he was gonna jump up and put Senator Obama in a choke hold. Whew!

Okay Field, I thought Old Dude was going to turn into the Incredible Hulk all that heavy breathing and snorting he was doing.

Yes you may not be President Bush Old Man but your policies align with his and we can't overlook that.

Woo-hoo! The Obama-Biden team is 4-0!!

I was not able to watch--I am struggling with a term paper that just doesn't want to get written. (I can write a letter to the editor in 30 minutes that will be exactly 300 words long, but writing for school gives me brain freeze.) But I knew I could count on Mr. Field to get an objective account. No rose-colored Obama glasses for him, nosirree.

Here's another picture of Hope that I just found, in case anyone else missed it, too.

A thought just occurred to me. You notice how Obama didn't put Palin down and was polite and complimentary. He didn't badmouth her and was respectful. In other words, he shows he is skilled in interpersonal communication skills. He knows how to get along with people and is likeable.

Whereas, McCain badmouthed Biden and to be honest that seems to be all he does is badmouth people. He lacks interpersonal communication skills and the skills it takes to get along with people. I see why he has a lot of enemies in the Congress. Picture him in control of that button. It would be WWIV & WWV & WWVI...

Obama is calm and doesn't take stuff personal, he lets it roll off his back. Whereas, McCain takes everything personal, is quick temper, grouchy, and rude.

Obama is in sync with the times, Whereas, McCain is so old fashion and stuck in the past, until it's like he is stuck in a time warp, and doesn't know how to adapt with the present times.

McCain is too old fashion for me, and I'm a senior citizen.

Preach Granny, Preach. i am glad the debate stopped on time because Mr. Morton would have stroked out if it did not.

And field, in the words of my favorite redneck white guy..."Get summmmm"

At first, I would have called this a draw. But then I saw how McCain's answers to the women's rights questions resonated throughout the blogosphere. To be honest, my mea culpa is that I probably tuned out the old codger at that point.

To make up for it, I hope you like my new avatar. :)

Oh Field that was such a funny post from start to finish!!!! I am watching the Matrix right now and LMAO. McGrumoy really showed his ass tonight, though it was his debate out of the three. All his whining and complaining didn't look good though. If you are a leader you just roll with it and he just looks WEAK. But they've got 20 days to come up with enough shenanigans to steal the election like they've planned all along. We can't give them an inch!!

Unknown said...

Man... That "Senator Government" was such a missed opportunity for Obama. He should have replied with a "Senator Oil Companies, I mean, Senator McCain."

GrannyStandingforTruth said...

BTW, did you folks read those two articles on huffingtonpost? One said McCain called Hillary and ask for economic advice just recently, but Hillary just thanked him, listen to him, but she didn't give up nothing. That lets you know McCain is erratic. How you gone ask someone on the Democrats side for advice to use against someone on their team. That's like calling a woman and asking her for advice on how to steal her husband from her. Yup, McCain and Palin are definitely soul mates, both are not too bright.

Now, the second article was about Rush the drug addict telling his listeners that black folks are training their kids to be militants. My kids are grown. I never taught mine to be militant, I don't know any black folks teaching their kids that. I hate to disappoint Rush, but I taught mine to get an education, think for themselves, be responsible, business before pleasure, family before friends, and God before ALL, treat others like you want to be treated and try to get along with people, and to help those less fortunate than them when they can, and a lot of moral values, but being a militant wasn't on the list. On the other hand, I didn't tell them that they had to be anyone's punching bag, either. They have a right to defend themselves, because they have a hand and arm just like the other person does, but don't pick and start fights.

Rush, Hannity, Palin, and the rest of their gang want to have a racial war so bad. They need to quit. I bet if you said boo to them, they'd probably pass out or have cardiac arrest. The majority of Americans want to live in peace and harmony and get along with each other. People with Rush, Hannity, and Palin's mentality are menaces to society.

GrannyStandingforTruth said...

Another thought occurred to me. That Joe the Plumber was another paid shrill for McCain. That was suppose to be booby trap, but the trap had a defect in it, and didn't work.

McCain bragged on how he was going to whup Obama's you know what. That reminded me how a kid would brag on how they were going to whup another kid's you know what, and always winded up getting the soup beat out of them. I guess, McCain's mother didn't teach him that all the bad folks are in boot hill and it's always someone badder than you. I know I taught mine that, and my mother taught me that too. It just occurred to me these are some violent thinking people, it's like violence is all they know. Have they ever heard of the word peace before or ever heard what Rodney King said?

GrannyStandingforTruth said...

McCain said that he was proud of those people that came to his rally. Okay, so does that mean that he agrees with all of them shouting "Kill him! Terrorist! Off with his head?" Because that is what those folks at his rally was shouting. For him to say that these people were retired veterans and military moms shouting those threats out, makes it even worse, because he is smearing, blaming, and labeling military folks racist. McCain is one sick cookie. Lawd, the man is deranged and has no respect for veterans or military moms, because that was low and degrading.

Black Diaspora said...

Obama skillfully outmaneuvered McCain in the debate tonight. He did so because McCain made a few fatal mistakes.

Mistake one: McCain didn't know where the campaign trail ended and the debate began. He should have suspended his campaign on the way to the debate.

Rather than debate Obama on substantive issues, he merely brought to the debate, from his campaign trail, a saddlebag of tired, hackneyed talking points about Obama's association with terrorist, and ACORN.

Mistake two: McCain kept his campaign face on too long. He should have put his adult, game face on, and put his kindergarten one aside (the pouting, the peevishness, the petty, childish complaining), and dealt with Obama on an adult level.

"Since you didn't play the way I wanted you to (all the townhall meetings), I told every one who would listen what a dirty liar you are."

"Since you didn't play fair about accepting public money, to punish you, I went negative on my attacks."

"Since you don't like my voucher plan, saying that since I don't have enough to go around-- like they're so much candy--that I shouldn't give any away at all, I'm going to roll my eyes, and look incredulous."

Mistake three: McCain went overboard. He should have resisted the temptation to attack Biden after first praising him. He came across as McBitterman--someone who finds it impossible to pass up an opportunity to diminish his opponent, if given a chance.

Obama praised Sarah Palin, and left it up to the American people to decide if she is qualified to be president in the event something happens to McCain, if elected.

Mistake four: McCain didn't suppress his Mr. Hyde side well. He shouldn't have come across as condescending, snide, combative, and grumpy looking.

This did not make him look presidential, but petty and small.

Obama wisely saw that this final debate would be less about substance (after two debates, the nation pretty much knew where each candidate stood on the issues), and more about style, appearance, self-control, and the projection of leadership.

Obama won by not throwing a punch, allowing McCain to punch himself out, to show all that he had in his arsenal, even baiting him to do so, so he would say again:
"I got him just where I want him."

Now that the American people have had the opportunity to see the two candidates side by side, one spent--with nothing more to offer--and one still fresh from a three round fight, and still willing to go nine more rounds without needing a second wind, the results are in--three rounds for Obama, zero rounds for McCain.

That pretty much sums up McCain's run for the White House: he had zero to offer, and with no plays left in his play book, zero chance of being this nation's next president.

Mr. Noface said...

You want to know when it becaome clear to me that McCain lost the debate? No? I'm going to tell you anyway. It was after the first 25 minutes, when the questions about personal attacks came up. that's when McCain's temperment was brought to the fore (which seemed to be a theme in these three debates).

Talk about eratic. First he's whining about why Obama won't repudiate John Lewis' statements (why would one repudiate the truth), then he defends the people at his rallies whose hatred for Obama was palpable, finally he mentions the Ayers thing (oh lawd...though I must say, dude really had no choice since he's been promising to do so for the longest time). At each phase of the McCain meltdown Obama remained as cool as the dew in the morning. This coolness of course continued to peel away any remaining facade of civility that McCain had. So has Mccain lost his cool he lost his message and the undecided voters.

In this post visual media world, you would think after two debates McCain would have learned that its not only what you say, but how you say it as well.

GrannyStandingforTruth said...

black diaspora:

That was an excellent analysis. You broke it down. Your a scholar!

McCain was having a hissy behind Obama's speaking abilities, he felt that he has no right to be so eloquent. It sort of made me feel like McCain resents that deep down within him and mad because Obama doesn't speak ebonics.

McCain, also, seem to be upset about how much money Obama's campaign has raised.

Whelp, tommorow McCain and Palin will be claiming a victory and slinging more smears, inciting more hate, feigning these three things-->innocence, victimhood, and truthfulness.

Thanks, Granny. Coming from you, I'm doubly honored and humbled.

GrannyStandingforTruth said...

You know what got me was how McCain sat there with a straight face, lying, and said that he has always stopped those folks from shouting those hateful things every time. Also, when he got all huffy and puffy and felt like Obama should apologize to him for John Lewis calling him on his and Palin's klan rallies. Now, I'm beginning to believe that McCain is having some serious psychological problems in the area of reality. Is there a doctor in the house? Correction is there a psychiatrist in the house? I am going to say this one more time, DEMENTIA.

GrannyStandingforTruth said...

Webster's definition of Dementia:

1. Deterioration of intellectual faculties, such as memory, concentration, and judgment, resulting from an organic disease or a disorder of the brain. It is sometimes accompanied by emotional disturbance and personality changes.<--McCain's actions and behavior.

2. Madness; insanity.<--McCain's actions and thought patterns.

Brown Man said...

They used to have a wrestling hold called "The Sleeper".

That's what we call the debates at our house, cause after forty five minutes we are both on the couch, and after sixty minutes we are struggling to stay awake.

The only thing that would have woken me up would have been Joe the Plumber calling in, like they do on Larry King - now THAT would have gotten my ass to sit up and watch.

I love the "O-Man" to death, but he could have used a little more pep in his delivery - these two had me thinking about Bill Clinton they were so morose.

But it doesn't really matter, because in three weeks, J-Mac will be back in Arizona where he can browbeat Cindy for the rest of his life.

Barack Obama is so poised, informed, smart and yes, cool.

Campaigns are a bitch and yet, Barack Obama looks younger as the months go by. It's as though his soul is energized by the process.

Meanwhile, the Old Coot just looks and sounds more and more mentally ill. When he showed up last night in Kabuki white face paint and red lip gloss, I thought he was auditioning for Pacific Overtures.

Well, 20 days to go and the then Barack Obama will be our president-elect. To all the naysayers and doubters, I say, see -- America will vote for an African American and in large numbers.

Everything changes in 20 days.

The arduous clean up after 8 long years of Bush/Cheney can start and this country will be a better place with Barack Obama in the White House.

Add to that the Donald has endorsed the old guy instead of the O-man. That's HHN (honorary house negro) behavior.

From the debate one of my favorite parts was when McSame brought up how the Oman supposedly never said what the fine would be for small businesses not offering healthcare. The O-man said "I'll tell you John... ZERO!" McSame looked like a deer in the headlights I laughed out loud and cheered for the first time in the 4 debates. McSame's healthcare plan scares me.

I think Obama did say something about Palin, but it was very subtle. Rather than say the woman is not fit to be dogcatcher, he said that if anything God forbid, happened to him, that Joe Biden could step right in. And that they shared core values.

McCain did look like a figure in a wax museum. Obama looked calm, cool and self assured. He looked presidential.

@Anonymous:
The Republicans are really not getting their monies worth from you. I bet I could go to many other Black political blogs and find the same tired diatribe. So grab another juice box, scratch your balls (sorry they probably haven't dropped yet) then call mom to give you another plate of mac and cheese.

Trying to discourage Black folk from voting? That tactic won't work nor will trying to sway centrist moderate white voters.

McCain might have had a chance considering the "Bradley Effect" about two weeks ago, but blew that with the Klan rallies.

The "Good" white folk don't like to be viewed as racist, beer swilling, undereducated, knuckle dragging, myopic, religious zealot, nonlinear thinking hillbillies by the global community. With the exception of the Republican base of course, because basically the above description is more than apt.

The moderate, centrist Republican and independent white folk will vote for Obama for three reasons:

1. Republicans are sick to death of the religious right and the neocons high-jacking their party and laying it to ruin, the independents are just sick PERIOD

2. To salvage whatever credibility the U.S. has in the world community

3. To retain their belief that American is still a "Great Society" capable of embracing "the other" as their President.

I might be wrong but I don't think so.

"You hurt my widdle feelings!"
"You voters, get off my lawn!"

"Joe the Plumber" isn't really a plumber. He's getting a little bit more attention than he bargained for.

Re Colin Powell, better late than never, I guess. After Christopher Buckley's endorsement, almost any other Republican endorsement will be an anti-climax. Now what would really be cool is if Condoleeza Rice announced her endorsement!

Folks,why should I ban people like Anon.--who made the ignorant statements about Michelle Obama--when you folks lay such a good smack down on him/her/them? "timid creatures" indeed.

Oh "the secret squirrel" that is too funny, but after I saw some of people talking in those videos, there are people that actually are this afraid.


Hey "Allheavens" said "The "Good" white folk don't like to be viewed as racist, beer swilling, undereducated, knuckle dragging, myopic, religious zealot, nonlinear thinking hillbillies by the global community."

I would like to know what you have against "beer swilling." Up to a point it can breed a certain muzzy kind of tolerance.

The Secret Squirrel's linked to article was so funny I just had to go back and get a copy for historical purposes. I hope to God that I am chuckling over this all the way through President Obama's presidency.

P.S. Read it all the way to the end, it only gets funnier.

Actually, my favorite is the part in Plank #5 where Muslim is going to be declared one of the three official languages. That idea came from one of my commenters, and it was a prize!

I can certainly understand why people are nervous, but I assure you that the wingnut blogs that banned my for posting my notice about Obama's SECRET PLAN to declare BLACK SOCIALISM knew that they are being mocked, and don't like it one little bit!

"Forget pumpkins this Halloween, how about a Mr. Morton likeness in every window?"

Hahahaha! You had me drooling with that one. I think Mr. Morton was high on something. I think they changed up his meds from the last debate. If you think I'm joking--I'm not.

It also looks like Joe the Plumber may be out of a job:

"But the county Wurzelbacher and his employer live in, Lucas County, requires plumbers to have licenses. Neither Wurzelbacher nor his employer are licensed there, said Cheryl Schimming of Lucas County Building Regulations, which handles plumber licenses in parts of the county outside Toledo."

There's also an article about him owing a couple of thousand in taxes (link not handy right now), as well as speculation into whether he is related to Robert Wurselbacher--one of the Keating Five.

In other news:

"The latest newsletter by an Inland Republican women's group depicts Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama surrounded by a watermelon, ribs and a bucket of fried chicken, prompting outrage in political circles." My favorite was the kool-aid.

Sorry about all the links, but there's a lot of shit going down today!

Muslim is not a language (I can't believe I'm typing this) it's called Arabic, like the Arabic numbers 1,2,3,4, etc. Thanks for the laugh!

I watched all three presidential debates. I was amazed that the undecideds consistently broke in favor of Obama by large margins. I didn't think that Obama dominated the debates, so it appears to me that people are truly sick of Bush and his campaign tactics, which McSame now represents. Obama will win this election and it will NOT be close. Sorry wingnuts, your delusional fantasies are about to get pissed on by cold reality. Sucks being you in 2008.
