Liveblogging Debate Night Pre-Show: What Do Dumb Anchors ‘Predict’?

That’s WALNUTS! after downing his fifteen nightly Ambien. What a nut. But, he showed up for tonight’s debate, and that’s more than he was planning on yesterday! So give him credit HE WAS IN THE WAR FOR CHRIST’S SAKE JESUS. Anyway: tonight’s debate is about race. No. Foreign policy… of race? we have four 40s for the night but still have some vague idea of what’s going on at the moment. Let’s watch, uh, MSNBC CNN or something, sure, and get drunker faster better before the “show” starts. We’ll be having a new liveblog every half-hour tonight.

8:32 — How totally freaked out are you by that Blingee? Ha ha suckaz. No just kidding PLEASE STAY.
8:33 — We’re doing CNN. MSNBC is just that Olbermann ranting about, uh, Bush or rape laws or killing waterfowl or whatever the Liberals whack off to these days.
8:35 — WOOOLF. Oh hai Wolf. Oh he is “going” to Soledad O’Brien. Where is she? In a brown cave in Columbus, Ohio, Afganistan. They — the “focus group” attendees each have wires attached to their arms so as to kill them for information about the 9/11 Wall Street Financial Crisis.
8:37 — Soledad O’Brien shows them the special Buzzer Dildo they will each use. If you don’t press yours, the person next to you will and you will die! CNN got the idea from the dead Joker, Heath Ledger, in the latest Star Wars anime movie.
8:39 — If you have an HDTV, you can somehow test Bill Bennett’s pulse or something. Does he have a brain tumor? Does Paul Begala have kidney stones. “This is only open to HD customers,” Wolf says.
8:40 — Wolf “goes” to John King on the Great Wall, which is just a Chinese ripped version of Microsoft Paint for Windows 3.0.1. “Ohio” is important. Everything about this Mississippi debate is about Ohio, according to CNN.
8:42 — Ah, commercial. Let’s do our favorite Wonkette Liveblogging Commercial Activity: copy-pasting a funny Kathryn Jean Lopez post from The Corner.

Obama Discriminates Against the Internet!! [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

I just got my Obama text message (how much do I regret signing up for the veep text?). I’m told to watch “on any of the major networks or cable.”

K-Lo: the “Sarah Palin” of The Corner.
8:46 — Let’s “go” to Jeff Toobin, the teevee New Yorker lawyer. “I think the whole concept of expectations is bogus,” Toobin says. And he criticizes the media! Everyone shouts at him. He will be in CNN Gitmo (Larry King’s hobbit-filled handjobatorium) for the next few days, as punishment.
8:48 — McCain is a “street fighter,” sez CNN. How’s that working out for him?
8:49 — Wolf has breaking news! “Uh uh there’s Michelle, uh, Obama, there she is on the uh, platform, the stage, uh uh uh, there she is, uh, walking, uh, sniff, uh there’s our CNN, uh, reporter, internet writer, uh reporter, uh uh internet reporter uhhhh.”
8:50 — CNN has some random foreign gal, “Abby,” looking and touching a 20-foot diameter screen of some Internet comment board. “You can see what they’re thinking on the Internet.” And we all know how edifying an experience that can be. Wolf: “Uh uh uh neat, uh, yeah.”
8:52 — HA HA, they made black Roland Martin of CNN go to the black caucus party. “You know how to talk to them, right?” was the producer’s rationale.
8:54 — Oh shit. CNN has taken its massive budget to crash in some rotting wood-paneled ass castle of Republican voters in Nevada or something. They are all 1,000 years old in floral shirts and weigh more than Earth. Can’t wait to, what is it, “go” to them later for their opinions. “Why is George Jefferson debating Hero?”
8:58 — Yay, Ted Kennedy isn’t dead yet. Well that’s enough for now. KEN LAYNE your bearded editor loser will liveblog the first half hour of the debate. GO THERE.

    I’d just like to say that Radiohead’s “Treefingers” came up on the ipod shuffle just as I came here and saw this picture of Walnuts. I think the combination of the two has permanently altered me.

  9. Is it just me, or does his face look a little lopsided? Never noticed that before.

    Ummm… PETA should throw blood on that ladies pink boa.

  27. I am not liking Michelle’s dress but I am sure Cindy will wear one of her expensive monstrosities.

  28. Bramlet Abercrombie says at 8:51 pm, September 26th, 2008

    OK, I’m here with the boozes.

  29. A lot of people don’t know this, but this blingee of McCain is actually a stillshot from the alternate ending of 2001 a space odyssey.

  30. shortsshortsshorts says at 8:52 pm, September 26th, 2008

    Blingee is taking over the world.

  31. The only good thing about Bennett on the TV is it reminds me to keep exercising and watch the cholesteral.

  32. “What Do Dumb Anchors ‘Predict’?”
    The bailout plan: just a piece of paper.

  33. eastcoastliberal says at 8:53 pm, September 26th, 2008

    columnv: Jealous! Me=home alone while kids are at a football game and husband and dog are in New Hampshire canvasing for Hopey. BUT I have vodka and the tv retards and all of you…so…Phew!

    BTW, we must all remember that Walnuts! had no Blingee for FIVE AN A HALF YEARS! (he didn’t have a table either)

  35. PoliTacky says at 8:54 pm, September 26th, 2008

    JUMP on it.

  42. whiteasasheet says at 8:56 pm, September 26th, 2008

    Teddy’s back home…no scotch allowed in the hospital tv room.

  43. I’m on MSNBC. I spent nearly four hours on the damn riding lawnmower and my ancient, arthritic body (I am the oldest person here except for Walnuts) hurts so I’m doin’ hydrocodone and muscle relaxers and it just took me three tries to type that.

    I am so nervous, I could be debating myself. No, I mean I could be debating McCain myself. See? I’m loaded.

    Oh, Mr. Obama–PLEEeeezzee quit tipping the moron voters off to the fact you are the most brilliant person to run since the other Land of Lincolner. We like our president stupid.

    Damn, at this rate all I need is one more painkiller and I’ll be ready to mud wrestle that Snobilly bitch and throw her to a bear. Or possum.

    I cannot stand Bennett and Wolf is creeping me out–I’ll get my share of creep out of McWalnuts.

  44. graceless says at 8:58 pm, September 26th, 2008

    Ted Kennedy’s back home from the hospital…

  46. chascates says at 8:58 pm, September 26th, 2008

    I wonder if Walnuts cheeks will pull out about a foot or so like in that movie Brazil? Can someone try that just to see?

  47. Sonic Former Youth says at 8:59 pm, September 26th, 2008

    Did that shot on MSNBC with Olbermann and Biden look a little too Barry wannabe?

  48. ifthethunderdontgetya says at 8:59 pm, September 26th, 2008

    The Armada cacked it, tho.

  117. The New Cassius: “Fis-a-cal” crisis. All believes in Jaheezuz pronounce it this way.

  118. Walnuts, I knew Ike. I worked with Ike. You are no Ike.

    Ikey, maybe.

    But no Ike.

  119. C’mon, John, sigh loud.

    If you have an HDTV, you can somehow test Bill Bennett’s pulse or something. Does he have a brain tumor?

    Could be he’s a scanner. Could be that he is computing whether he has enough time to call his bookie and change his bet.

  127. “I also warned about… yadda yadda yadda.”

    Going back to Ike’s time as a general… not realizining that what Ike was doing by writing TWO letters: he was hedging his bets.. covering his ASS. And Johnny-Mac wants to fire someone that the president doesn’t have the power to fire.. unless there were some secret provisions in the Patriot Act.

  151. Spending is out of control… yeah, nothing like an un-nessesary war to break a budget.

    John McCain just said he would veto every spending bill….. well, close down the government, that would sure save some money!

  152. I love how McCain is talking like he hasn’t been in the Republican party for 200 years.

    “It’s broken. It’s a mess.”

    Hey McCunt: it happened on your watch.

  153. Cogito Ergo Bibo says at 9:15 pm, September 26th, 2008

  232. Weeping Jesus says at 9:36 pm, September 26th, 2008

    Yes! The Republicans had no part of the deficit! Bush has always submitted balanced budgets and the Dems have caused the debt!

  233. Orgy of spending! That’s the greatest line ever.

  234. Weeping Jesus says at 9:37 pm, September 26th, 2008
