Debate: Man to Man

[bookman]

Forget the town hall format if * is afraid of it.

Suggest a man to man debate. Kerry vs. Bush. Challenge his manhood.

[BJ]

1. Dubya'll wet his pants.

[elehhhhna]

3. methinks you just explained all that "sweat" at his public appearances!

[daddybear]

5. Gross huh?

Geez, you would think the RESIDENT would at least DRESS like a Resident and cover all that sweat!!! Of course, he is used to shoveling sh** in Crawford in the sun (so he says anyway)...

[cheshire]

8. That would be CHICKEN sh*t.

[elehhhhna]

2. YES YES YES! Keep this kicked! Superb idea!

[Spiffarino]

4. Kerry should debate * on horseback.

The pre-debate show could feature the duel between Tweety and the Zell-iphant.

Now that's entertainment!

[Doctor Pedantic]

6. No! No!

Don't challenge W's manhood! Remember the bulge in W's flight suit on "Mission Accomplished" day? (Is that a weapon of mass destruction in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?)

[daddybear]

12. Bulge?

That was more than like Cheney!!!!

[cheshire]

7. Man to Man? Who will Kerry debate?

[Rob in B_more]

9. How about mano y mano, just like the old days.

Wonder what Poppy would say to that.

[Doctor Pedantic]

16. Zell would approve. n/t

[Bernardo de La Paz]

10. Good format: 90 minutes, no moderator

90 minutes, no moderator. Presidential persons will listen to the other respectfully and give them time to make their points. Or maybe have a moderator to give them equal time. But let them say what they want and ask their own questions of the other candidate.

Of course, that is too free form for Bush and his handlers to contemplate, so they'll never agree to it. Bush is too scared to answer real questions and has a tendency to get petrified.

[cthrumatrix]

14. I like that... and no cocaine either...you must be sober

[daddybear]

11. First of all

First of all, it would be a Man to Bush event... you need TWO MEN to make it man to man...

[bringbackfdr]

13. This should be one day's drumbeat

Make this fraud look like the weak-kneed witless wonder that he really is. If Dick Halliburton is going to go off the deep end with his "Vote for us or die" speeches, Kerry should simply say "I want to debate this man one on one, no moderator, no panel, no audience. Me, him, a camera and two microphones.''

[madmom]

15. shrub is afraid...

the selected people won,t read the questions they were given.

[realcountrymusic]

17. Kerry should be saying:

"Just as I did when called to serve, I will be there. My opponent appears to be using power and influence to avoid combat. How interesting."

And then Kerry should go to St. Louis and give a fiery policy speech next to an empty podium, with his band of brothers behind him.

You know what else? He should offer George the option of bringing Dick Cheney with him, as he did at the 9-11 commission session, in case he is "worried about appearing by himself."

Do you suppose Kerry's "new team" has the balls for this? Gawd I hope so.

PS - And by the way, "mano a mano" does not mean "man to man." That is a mistake I hear all the time, and I suspect that's what GWB thinks it means.

[Shuck and Jive]

18. A Joust on Jet Skis

might be more fun than a debate.

However, Kerry would knock probably Bush in the water then rescue his sorry butt. Then Jet Skier Vets for Truth would run an add claiming it never happened and that Kerry is unfit for navigating the country.

Strange World. Maybe cow-pies at ten paces would be better. But how would we know Bush was hit?
