Just so you know Dumbya wasn't the only cheat ... :sarcasm: and wasn't it nice of the Dem. Subcommittee Chairman to postpone the investigation so as to not appear partisan during an election year :sarcasm:

Circa Jan, 1984

1. wouldn't that have been 1980?

[hadrons]

2. It was the 1980 debates, but the news story is from 1984

3. Carter was sooooooooo screwed by the Repukes. lt is almost a Shakespearean tragedy.

[awoke_in_2003]

4. Well, get ready...

it is going to happen again. Carter was saddled with a staggering economy, high unemployment rates, and high oil prices caused by the previous administration. He was the fall guy for Nixon/Ford policies, and was a one-termer because of it. History repeats itself.

5. I hope and pray that you are not right..

10. Well Take this Quiz...

Obama becomes the 44th President of the U.S.... He tweaks and changes George W. Bush failed policies and Wack we are hit by another 911 type of attack.... What possibly can he say to the American people?

The Repulbicans will play the Fear card they will criticize any change that he made. They will blame the Democrats... Think about it... It is a lose... lose scenario for us. The country may very well fall apart and this may very well be what the Radical Islamic Terrorists want to happen.

Study your adversary.

6. History repeats itself...

only on the History Channel. And there it is incessant.

7. Republicans always cheat and get inside Dem info before debates. As we just seen McCain do.

Republicans simply can't win without cheating, lying and stealing votes they know that and they spend money and time making sure they can manipulate, mislead and steal.

8. REPUGNANTS HAVE BEEN WICKED FOR SO LONG....

...it's incredible!!

9. George Will-that is how he got his start

George Will stole it

Will's detractors complain about instances when Will has blurred the line between independent journalist and political advocate. Will helped Ronald Reagan prepare for his 1980 debate against Jimmy Carter, breaking with the journalistic tradition of neutrality. Immediately after the debate, Will—who was not a member of the ABC News staff—appeared on ABC's Nightline. He was introduced by host Ted Koppel, who said "It's my understanding that you met for some time yesterday with Governor Reagan," and that Will "never made any secret of his affection" for the Republican candidate. It was not explicitly disclosed that Will had assisted with or been present during Reagan's debate preparation. Will went on to praise Reagan, saying his "game plan worked well. I don't think he was very surprised" (Nightline Special Edition, October 28, 1980).
