HERE'S YOUR NUTZ

Here’s Your Last Debate Liveblog, Ever, Part IV

He is a squirrel tooWell hey people, this is the last liveblog of a debate — the number is actually 50, no joke — in this election season. This has been a complete abortion of time. Ours, yours, God’s, ACORN’s. Remember Mike Gravel yelling at Joe Biden and really everyone else in that debate last April, which was 40 years ago? Well, that was actually in this SAME ELECTION CYCLE, and now it’s over forever because of the Economy, here’s a send-off into the hobo space jungle. And now we wait for the day…

10:00 — McCain’s health plan: make less fatties.
10:01 — HAHAHAHHA here comes Joe the Cummer again, John McCain wants to help Joe the Cummer have more employees, for cumming.
10:01 — Oh wow, Barack Obama says Joe the Cummer will have to pay ZERO in penalties if he doesn’t offer his employees health care. McCain stares at him like, “ZERO DOLLARS, HENNGHHHH?” And Obama says yes, because my plan excludes penalties on small businesses, such as professional cumming.
10:03 — McCain: “Hey Joe, you’re rich, HENNGHH, congrats, now Black Beauty over here wants to, uh, spread your wealth around, HENNGHH?” Has John McCain ever heard of a progressive tax system, which is what we have and what everyone has? Maybe everyone should pay zero taxes! Then we can just, uh, save America that way, with the no tax thing. HENNGHHHH?
10:05 — Joe the Cummer is cumming so much now, with all the attention he’s getting! His name is Rich Lowry, and he is the plumber of the toilet that is the National Review.
10:08 — Look everyone, it’s Joe the Plumber, we found him on a porn site for donkeys:

10:09 — John McCain would hire LITERALLY FUCKING ANYONE to the Supreme Court, no Litmus Tests for liberals, but he wouldn’t, uh… maybe… eh… well it’s a tough question… carry the zero… he would half-nominate someone who may have supported Roe v. Wade ever or never.
10:11 — Joe the Plumber, we found his website — traffic must be SKYROCKETING.
10:12 — McCain was born as a failed abortion, McCain says about himself. Would’ve worked better nowadays, but back then abortions were done with onions and a lot of them failed.
10:13 — Obama voted present for killing babies and such, why would he do that?
10:14 — Obama: When I voted present that was really a SECRET MAGICAL UNICORN VOTE for actual global peace and happiness, so fuck you Senator McCain.
10:15 — McCain: When the black talks about provisions for “saving the mother’s life” for opposing abortion bans, he doesn’t understand that all women are dumb sluts.
10:16 — LAST QUESTION OMG we’re so early no?
10:18 — It is about education. Eh. Higher education. Obama talks about his thing to give college kids money if they put Country First. Screw college. More people have college degrees now than ever, and look how that’s worked out. Our biggest achievement in the last ten years has been credit default swaps.
10:20 — McCain wants to BUS THE BLACKS into white neighborhoods with their fancy gay vouchers! Now who does that help? Hitler. It helps Adolf Hitler.
10:22 — Fixy the educations, fixy fixy fixy. What does Joe the Plumber want to do about want to do about vouchers? He doesn’t want to pay the Obama “Money Tax,” alright!
10:24 — McCain explains how vouchers helped the Washington D.C. school system. You remember that, and how it fucking was worthless saved America, don’t you Senator Obama?
10:25 — Obama says no vouchers bitch.
10:26 — McCain: “You listening to this idiot, HENNGHH?”
10:27 — Important Closing Statements. McCain spits his poo first.
10:28 — McCain: We have to fix all of this country’s problem. I recommend Joe the Plumber to fix them, we’ll write up a contract. But My Friends, Joe the Cummer, Plumber, needs a new caulk gun for his cumming. And he can’t do that with the Obama Money Tax. Fuck all this shit. Bye.
10:30 — Obama: We have to invest, baby, invest. Invest in money. Invest in the various taxes. It’s not going to be easy. Now watch me slam-jam this trash can on old Schieffer’s head. [Does so]. Look, look at how stupid Schieffer looks now. Bye.
10:31 — Bob Schieffer tells everyone that his mom is making him vote.
10:32 — McCain tells Obama “good job.” Meh. This is over. Bye kids!

    way to mock joe, mccain.

  23. Is it just me, or is McCain totally incoherent on health care?

  24. captainjuice says at 10:05 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Joe the Plumber will be the first plumber to make over $250,000 a year since the Mario Brothers.

  25. chascates says at 10:05 pm, October 15th, 2008

  37. redwoodflyer says at 10:05 pm, October 15th, 2008

    yeah! Why should Obama decide if you as an employee should have basic needs such as healthcare met?

  38. Jesus christ on the cross, stop talking about the damn plumber…

  39. matineeidol says at 10:06 pm, October 15th, 2008

  40. superfecta says at 10:06 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Plumber Joe is rich now! So McCain is admitting he doesn’t give a flying fuck about anyone else (and still clearly doesn’t know that health insurance is actually expensive).

  41. hockeymom says at 10:06 pm, October 15th, 2008

  47. wolfcatcher says at 10:07 pm, October 15th, 2008

  49. smashtheduck says at 10:07 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain wants state to kill babies.

  50. Know what is lame? The conversation between Obama and this “Joe the Plumber” was actually very reasonable, intelligent, and civilized. And now McCain is ruining it, of course.

  51. Ilikepigeons says at 10:07 pm, October 15th, 2008

    FTW? Senator Government!

  52. captainjuice says at 10:07 pm, October 15th, 2008

    The Democrats have been in charge of the world for the last like 4 seconds and therefore are responsible for Bush’s government expansions. Joe the Plumber meanwhile will host the final debate between Senator Government and Senator Mc-in-the-Tank-for-Joe in a town hall in Columbia with free drugs for everyone!

  53. The libruls - don’t trust ‘em! They’ll give you a healthcare plan that only covers green-tea enemas and acupuncture!

  62. choinski says at 10:08 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain: “The Senate was about to blow up” - its still about Ayers, isn’t it.

  63. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:08 pm, October 15th, 2008

  71. FreshCliches says at 10:09 pm, October 15th, 2008

  90. Queen Regine says at 10:11 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Hello, My name is Joe Plumber and I have no employees. I work by myself, like most plumbers. So WTF are you talking about?

    Bob Schiefer: best moderator of any of the debates.

  92. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:11 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I really am starting to dislike McCain…

  93. redwoodflyer says at 10:11 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Here’s where I disagree w/abortion: Why pad the wallets of those abortiontologists when it’s cheaper to buy a dyson, an osterizer, and an icepick?

    We’re all Lilly Ledbetters tonight.

  99. Are we still on Joe the fucking plumber? Does he not understand that plumbers rob homeowners blind, and that anyone who has ever called one wishes ill upon them? So yes, fuck you John McCain and your terrorist plumber friend and I hope Barry takes all of his money.

  100. rightonthekisser says at 10:12 pm, October 15th, 2008

    hopey = cary grant
    walnuts = jerry lewis/spencer tracy combo

  101. redwoodflyer says at 10:12 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Way to warp it numbnuts…that bill claimed that any bay the could breate is live…live != viable.

    McCain doesn’t know how someone would vote present??

  102. estrangiero says at 10:12 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Why are the men in Ohio so against abortion?

  106. superfecta says at 10:13 pm, October 15th, 2008

    ‘We have to change the culture of America’ - Senator McCain, why do you hate America?

  107. FreshCliches says at 10:13 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Please, Walnuts, say “compassion” as much as possible. It reminds me of the glory days of 2000.

  108. Floggy Bottom says at 10:13 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I wonder, who’d be who is the roles were reversed and it was Barack’s whose wife who stealed drugs (only the good ones, mind you) and it was B.O. who graduated fifth from the bottom of his class at the navel academy…*hic*

  109. redwoodflyer says at 10:13 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Screw joe the plumber….Americans need to get off of their ass, go down to Costco, and buy some damn Draino.

  110. Eastcoast Elitist says at 10:14 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Why won’t you let Lily Ledebetter and Joe The Plumber have their abortive same-sex marriage officiated by Hugo Chavez with free drugs for everyone?!

  117. I loves me my Senator Government (D-IL)

  118. redwoodflyer says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I really hope to hell that no one votes for prez on abortion views…on the scheme of things, it’s the least of our phucking concerns.

    McCain’s about to say Obama supports sex ed for preschoolers

  119. Clancy_Pants says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    “Health of the Mother” in quotes you fuck!!!

  120. magic titty says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    This debate is a partial birth abortion. Barack is stomping him like I have never seen.

    Did McCain just blow his nose?

  121. FreshCliches says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Adoption Option, what’s your function?

  122. Cookie Guggelman says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I’m pro-abortion…too many babies. Please, breeders, just stop it.

  123. Tito Puente says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    “lasers” of the mothers

  124. StripesAndPlaids says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Whoa. Sexuality is sacred? Do it Jesus style? Missionary position? Or am I drunK?

  125. LuckyJim says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Dreams of Joe the Plumber’s ass crack are making Walnuts lose it further. Watching this is like watching some beautiful slow-motion train wreck, on ecstasy.

  126. thwanger says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    someone give mccain a sudafed. he’s purposefully sniffling to defeat barack.

  127. I oppose Cavalier activity, but then again I’m Cromwellian.

  128. smellyal8r says at 10:15 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Hardy har. Cavalier sex. A DIRECT shot at Palin (Bristol, not Sarah).

  129. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain is like the crazy limo driver I get at Newark Airport!

  130. Is Hopey hinting Bristol Palin engaged in “cavalier activities”?

  131. OzoneTom says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Thanks for the heads up Sara.

    McCain sounds passionate about this abortion thing. And yet he tells us that he couldn’t imagine a litmus test. Makes ya wonder.

  132. redwoodflyer says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Dumbnuts, pro choice != pro abortion…it’s not like people are getting recreational abortions for fun

  133. middlewest says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Shit, “health of women” is extremism. Fuck, I don’t even know what to do with that.

  134. chascates says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    How dare Obama be for the health of the mother? FUCK her!

  135. adopt me john!!!!!

  136. AnnieGetYourFun says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I didn’t know that there was an extreme pro-abortion group in this country. Would that be people like me, who believe in a woman’s right to chose? WE ARE SO FUCKING CRAZY, we radical pro-abortionists.

  137. onefingersnapping says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    what if Joe The Plumber rapes his infant daughter?

  138. JoethePlumber says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    99.9% of plumbing problems are caused by the unborn.

  139. hehheh listen to that eloquence….”health has been stretched by abortionists to mean breathing…really hehehheheh”

  140. hockeymom says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    That barry, he’s got a silver tongue.

  141. What does Joe the freakin’ Plumber think about education?

  142. Weeping Jesus says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Education: Why doesn’t Palin’s family ever finish high school?

  143. Bitch's_Brew says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    “The extreme pro-abortion position..Health’”

    Yeah health is definitely one of those eloquent words we can’t trust, Walnuts.

  144. matineeidol says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    me n stop smiling are gonna engage in some cavalier activity, adopt late term abortion columbian babies and raise them as plumbers.

  145. Texas2Step says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Yeah, McCain and Cindy are so proud of their adopted little brown baby that she’s never seen on stage, especially at the racist rallies they’re so proud of.

  146. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:16 pm, October 15th, 2008

    It’s because AMERICA HAS THE STUPIDEST PEOPLE!!!

  147. prison rodeo says at 10:17 pm, October 15th, 2008

    The implications of this are…

    …oh, is that tapioca?

  148. Your hooker trollop wife sprung that kid on you - don’t act all sanctimonious about being an adoptive parent.

  149. John will take care of all extra babies.

  150. GideonGlib says at 10:17 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Subtle jab at Willow or Stick or Algebra or whatever that Palin girl is named there Barry.

  151. OzoneTom says at 10:17 pm, October 15th, 2008

    One implication is that every one of those coutries have SOCIALIZED HEALTHCARE.

  152. We don’t need education, we have guns!

  153. FreshCliches says at 10:17 pm, October 15th, 2008

  155. I know I know!
    Privatise all schools!
    Don’t let poor people go to school!
    Poor = Stoopid!

    Hooray!!

  156. mCain adopted a kid from another country…. why does JohnnyMac hate American orphans??

  157. StripesAndPlaids says at 10:17 pm, October 15th, 2008

    My wife is a woman. I like her health.

  158. beezie687 says at 10:17 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Dammit, now when I refresh the page I have to look at Joe’s plumber crack. Damn You Wonkette!!! :waves fist:

  159. FreshCliches says at 10:17 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Education is SO elitist.

  160. Floggy Bottom says at 10:18 pm, October 15th, 2008

    He was in the Potomac, ….but where did Carl Rovey wade?

  161. Dr. Zoidberg says at 10:18 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Johnny Zhivago: What, only now are you starting to dislike Grampa McCain?

    Where have you been? In a cave, on Mars?

  162. Chad San Marino says at 10:18 pm, October 15th, 2008

    If the schools weren’t so shitty, Joe could have gotten a job with benefits.

  163. TheNavOne says at 10:18 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Ohians don’t like college much.

  164. prison rodeo says at 10:18 pm, October 15th, 2008

    $60K was my college coke bill, nevermind tuition…

  165. Army of Teachers - I loved their first EP.

    Joe the Plumber must die.

  169. FreshCliches says at 10:18 pm, October 15th, 2008

    prison rodeo: New Rule: only one tapioca reference per debate.

  170. smellyal8r says at 10:18 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I do hate to say it, but this debate wasn’t bad. Mostly because Shieffer wasn’t channelling the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland with a stop watch up his butt. And, he didn’t have the flu/surgery or a broken ankle like the PBS dynamic duo. Hat’s off to Schieffer. He should take over the CBS Evening News from whatshername.

  171. memzilla says at 10:18 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Q. Whats the difference between Sarah Palin’s vagina and her mouth?

    A. Only some of the things that come out of her vagina are retarded.

  172. OzoneTom says at 10:18 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Eastcoast Elitist: I thought that he was a Garden Gnome.

    My Dungeons and Dragons co-workers tell me that there is a difference.

  173. Education—yeah, right, check out Texas 8 years ago—Thnx W!!! This will f*** up the US for YEARS to come!! Yahoo!!

  174. JoethePlumber says at 10:19 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Plumbing school costs 50k per semester, y’all.

  175. Our Education is substandard? Why does the Moderator hate America? He surely does not believe in “American Exceptionalism.”

  176. Chief Grinning Eagle says at 10:19 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I’m adopted and it makes me cringe every time I hear that rap about adoption. Talk about a sick institution. . .

  177. Wow… Obama NAILING the Education!

    And McCain… not so much…

  178. WHAT THE FUCK?

    McCain calling people who support allowing abortion to protect the health of a woman “extremists” makes me much, much too angry to snark.

    INDEPENDENT ANGRY, john. You won’t like me when I’m angry.

    I’m going to go find an ACORN rep now so that I can vote against you as often as humanly possible.

  179. fuckinredneck says at 10:19 pm, October 15th, 2008

    It’s sad to think that Bridget would get booed at her dad’s own rally. :(

  180. Polly Sigh-Entist says at 10:19 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Floggy Bottom: Easy. B.O. would have never graduated had he been fifth from the bottom of his class at the Naval Academy. I know from ’sperience…

    That is, unless he was on the football team. Then he’d be exempted on that little known ‘five year plan’ at good ol’ USNA…

  181. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:19 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Proven in New Orleans until it was wiped off the map!

  182. magic titty says at 10:19 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain talking about the ghetto school kids again?

  183. knoxtheharpy says at 10:19 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Yes, free market competition is totally going to address the achievement gap, Walnuts. Charter schools to the rescue!1!!1!

  184. yeah, it worked in NOLA, we wiped all of the fuckers that sucked up the schools!!

    Great work there, Brownie!!

  185. chascates says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Schools fail when they don’t have money to sustain them.

  186. More Dirt Please says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I now, at this point, would do ANYTHING Obama says, so I’m glad he didn’t include blogs in his score improving media ban.

  187. amobogio basketball-jones says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    bad teachers for the senate!! or maybe governor of alaska

  188. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    chapka: I caught that - what the fuck?

  189. Fighting Bill says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Joe the plumber put the plunger up McCain’s butt. The guy is choking, snorting, huffing and looks completely uncomfortable in his own skin. Hopey? Mr. Cool.

  190. tunamelt says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I miss last april

  191. Darehead says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain just called education a “civil rights issue” after he slammed the “great society” 20 minutes ago!

  192. Chief Grinning Eagle says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    If your kid goes away to school on a full scholarship do you lose your deduction for it?

  193. Parents need to turn off the TV, put away the guns, tear up the NASCAR tickets, lock up the ATVs.

  194. isn’t norleans still under water? scuba magnet program?

  195. hockeymom says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Is that dandruff on McCain’s shoulders…or did he sprinkle on some glitter?

  196. New Orleans Public Schools are the worst schools in the world. Brother Martin was no great shakes eithe, ya herd?

  197. Pop Socket says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Support of education = letting poor black people learn to read
    Walnuts is against it.

  198. The bitters loved the idea of parental responsibility, but promptly got turned off when he mentioned turning off the TV and video games. This, more than anything else, sums up the state of America right now. We love freedom and responsibility and all that, as long as it does require our fat asses or our kids’ fat asses off the couch.

  199. rightonthekisser says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Obama is sooo good tonight i want to dance the hustle with him tonight.

  200. Undeterredbyreality says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Education is the civil rights issue of the 21st Century? New Orleans charter schools work! Cindy and I get to send our kids to the school of our choice. Anybody with millions of dollars can do it! What’s the problem?

    Affirmative action for all blacks to get into our kids schools!

  201. Walnuts, you stick in my craw.

  202. knoxtheharpy says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    No litmus tests for ex-soldiers with PTSD who want to teach the children, eh?

  203. tripsydaily says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    GergenEmoticon:Bored

  204. StripesAndPlaids says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    No Wonkette crash. Nice server.

  205. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Spoken like a person who graduated 894 out of 895.

  206. Itsjustme says at 10:20 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Wait a damn minute! Of course the rich throw the money at the problem to solve it. What rock has grampy been under?

  207. choinski says at 10:21 pm, October 15th, 2008

    So McCain’s black baby had a choice of schools? Where’s she go? Switzerland or Hogwarts?

  208. I’m sorry, but WTF?!?!
    Did he just say that we should bring soldiers over and give them teaching jobs without any testing or training?????

    FUCK!!!

  209. chascates says at 10:21 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Troops to Teachers really helps those who’ve been maimed and then forgotten by the government. Good program.

  210. ClothCoated says at 10:21 pm, October 15th, 2008

    No teacher certification = better teachers? Walnuts is really moving the blithering idiot vote his way.

  211. Floggy Bottom says at 10:21 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Hell, Walnutz is al for teaching, but let ‘em go get their masters degrees in kissing their ass adios in Falluja before they come back to teach in Bed-Stuy.

  212. noidiotsplease says at 10:21 pm, October 15th, 2008

    just let anybody teach, regardless of their qualifications. that is the scarest thing mccain has said all night.

  213. Find bad teachers another line of work!
    How about plumbing? John’s friend Joe could hook them up, but then he’d have to get whatever health care plan Barry told him to.

  214. captainjuice says at 10:21 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Troops can go right to education without certification???? WHY ISN’T JOE THE PLUMBER PROVOST PROFESSOR OF STANFORD YET???

  215. soldiers teaching without certification? that is weird.

  216. McCain: “I will send PTSD-suffering Iraq vets straight into the classroom when they return. Screw these certifications and exams and attempts to prove competency at teaching.”

  217. Big winner of this debate: Joe the Plumber.

  218. Panderfinder says at 10:21 pm, October 15th, 2008

    snap! “they left the money behind with no child left behind!”

  219. Chief Grinning Eagle says at 10:22 pm, October 15th, 2008

    When you’re adopted people will patronize you by saying you look like your parents.

  220. smellyal8r says at 10:22 pm, October 15th, 2008

    What about a young man I read about just yesterday who had to drop out of high school because he got his girlfriend pregnant and her mom, the Governor of Alaska, insisted they get married. So, I guess we’ll be talking care of that little family for the rest of their ruined lives. Sweet.

  221. memzilla: WIN.

  222. You GO BARAK… as a teacher, NCLB is FUCKED UP…… expects kids like Trig to perform as well as normal kids…

  223. prison rodeo says at 10:22 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Has the Hopester been below the line with the CNN-Bitters wimmens even *once* tonight?

  224. I would not have refreshed if I knew that hideous picture was waiting for me. That was not fair Jim – isn’t enough that we are enduring McGrumpy and his facial ticks.

  225. tunamelt says at 10:22 pm, October 15th, 2008

    jagorev: That is the most depressing and most true fact about our country.

  226. Obama said schools are “strapped”. His new plan will “yoke-up” our schools

  227. matineeidol says at 10:22 pm, October 15th, 2008

    go charter schools hopie go go go competition in public schools fuck yeeeah

  228. Texas2Step says at 10:22 pm, October 15th, 2008

    BARRY!! STOP AGREEING WITH MCNUTS!!! I know he’s doing it to make a point, but don’t give the Wingnuts soundbites!

  229. joyshine says at 10:23 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain is sooooooo angry! Fuming old codger! Next to Jesus, Barry is the sheeeeeeeeeeeet!

  230. captainjuice says at 10:23 pm, October 15th, 2008

    prison rodeo: You obviously didn’t know any Colombians.

  231. TheNavOne says at 10:23 pm, October 15th, 2008

    You know who else believes the children are our future?

  232. McCain’s 11th Commandment: thou shalt not be eloquent.

  233. StripesAndPlaids says at 10:23 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Find bad teachers new work: US Senators.

  234. her name is michelle, dammit!

  235. Pop Socket says at 10:23 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Let’s send all the poor kids to McCain’s haughty taughty private school.

  236. memzilla says at 10:23 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain’s smirk and his smarmy tone has cost him this election. It’s the equal of Nixon’s beard shadow in 1960.

  237. “Voucher” is a delicious word.

  238. rightonthekisser says at 10:24 pm, October 15th, 2008

    HEY HANDS OFF DC…god he’s a condescending asshole

  239. Undeterredbyreality says at 10:24 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Kids today want the same advantages that I and Cindy and you and Michelle had.

    WTF?

  240. McCain thinks that ANYONE can be a teacher….. and that is why we have FUCKUPS as teachers….. they can’t handle college, so they get pushed into education.

    I’ve worked with more morons that came from other majors and fields

  241. Chief Grinning Eagle says at 10:24 pm, October 15th, 2008

    If I use a voucher to go to Punahoe does it include an expense account for Hawaiian green?

  242. TheNavOne says at 10:24 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I would love to see Obama’s marriage invitation in McCain’s imagination:

    That one to wed your wife.

  243. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:24 pm, October 15th, 2008

    New program: Bring our troops home to teach, send our teachers to Afghanstan to fight!

  244. hockeymom says at 10:24 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain is so pissy…he’s not likeable. Why are people on CNN scoring him so high? Why are they not in the tank?

  245. is it impossible for mccain to say “michelle”….I am surprised he doesn’t say “that one you are married to”

    make it stop old bitter asshole

  246. Texas2Step says at 10:24 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Nice. McCain’s wife has a name, yet Obama’s does not. Ranks right up there with “That One.”

  247. airvault says at 10:24 pm, October 15th, 2008

    How about Plumbers to Teachers? I think I know a guy who’s looking for work.

  248. captainjuice says at 10:24 pm, October 15th, 2008

    OMG MCCAIN CAN’T SAY MICHELLE OBAMA’S NAME BECAUSE SHE IS A WOMAN WHOSE HEALTH IS AN ABORTION WITH JOE THE PLUMBER WHO ADOPTS INDIAN CHILDREN ON COKE.

  249. What about the Leg-Up Program?

  250. GideonGlib says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    So, what’s the Drudge poll at now on who won this one, Walnuts 178% think won, Barry 12% ??

  251. I’m now drinking heavily, even in the middle of the week, b’cause the thought of McCain & Bible Spice in charge is really sickening………. and I HATE McCain’s smirk!!! worse than W., if that’s possible….

    Oh, and he’s running on @ great first beginning for “no child left behind”– here in the South even the die-hard Reps who own our newspapers and everything else are saying yeach right : Every child left behind!!

    Sarah Palin again!!!! ARGGGGGGG!!

  252. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    New Program for Joe Wertslburger: Plumbers to Teachers!

  257. well almost 90 minutes and NO MAVERICK!

    How does sarah know about autism??? Trig is what all of 6 month old and in Mogoliod, NOT AUTISTIC!

  258. AngryBlakGuy says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    …ummmmmmmmm, I thought Trig had Downs Syndrome not Autism?!?!?!

  259. walnuts confuses autism and downs syndrome. “Sarah Palin knows about Autism”

    senile.

  260. chascates says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Give every mother a Down syndrome baby!

  261. Itsjustme says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Sarah Palin is the only person in the World that knows Autism.

  262. Texas2Step says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    OK - TRIG HAS DOWN SYNDROME. NOT AUTISIM. WTF does Palin know about Autism?

  263. prison rodeo says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    FreshCliches: But there are *two* geezers on this one!

    If only Anderson Cooper was up in this bad boy…

  264. nyjewess says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Wait…. Walnuts is wearing a blue tie and Barry is wearing a red tie….
    Does this mean they can both “work across the aisle”?

    Sarah Palin knows about Moose better than most…. that don’t mean she should be one melanoma away from the presidency???!!!

  265. JoethePlumber says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I unclogged a toilet at a town hall meeting. It was clogged with broken dreams (mostly mine).

  266. her kids not autistic

  267. Hooray For Anything says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Somebody help me, I keep on missing Bob Schieffer’s questions about how to stop the rise in autism for kids.

  268. onefingersnapping says at 10:25 pm, October 15th, 2008

  269. smellyal8r says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    joyshine: And these cheap shots/low blows are just annoying: “I’m surprised you didn’t know that Senator.” This is what passes for “humor” in jamakane’s world. That’s why the press loved being on that bus with him, but it doesn’t translate through the teevee. Plus, McCain’s locking up the Autism vote tonite.

  270. Bitch's_Brew says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain loves precious children who have autism.

    I will die now, I will die.

  271. magic titty says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    why does sarah palin know more about autism?

  272. FlipOffResearch says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    God! Sometimes my dog wants out, and it just stares at me and fidgets around. It’s annoying as hell. Watching McCains reaction shots reminds me of that.

  273. tripsydaily says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Chief Grinning Eagle: No shit!! My sister is adopted - seems to be quite a mind fuck if you as me - of course my parents are giant assholes, but at least they didn’t rape her so I guess she lucked out compared to most children that have “been in the system”….

  274. Panderfinder says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    both of you–stop giving michelle rhee a free pass.

  275. Nathalie08 says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    walnuts needs to stop the eye-rolling. It’s creepy

  276. PioBaroja says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    On the edge of the apocalypse, it appears that the actual issue, important to US Americans, is autism. I concur. Also, where is the flag pin, Walnuts? Where’s the flag pin?

  277. And fuck Sarah Palin and her concern for autistic kids. We need politicians who care about issues even if it doesn’t affect them personally.

  278. Oh Jesus America will solve autism with charity, what garbage. American science is just gonna sit for the next 20 years broke and let Europe and Asia make all the discoveries. We’re tired its their turn.

  279. Chief Grinning Eagle says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    What about Holden Caulfield? What if you go to a really great school that molds young men and women and you find out it sucks?

  280. Palin knows a heckuva lot about autism because she has a child with down syndrome. Same thing.

  281. tennessee Jed clampett says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    whiny magoo is scattered, rambling, and severely challenged in the vision-thing department.

    i’m getting my earplugs out now.

  282. Does her son have Autism? I thought it was Downs Syndrome – why is the old guy keep talking about Autism?

  283. OzoneTom says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I’m looking forward to hearing about how this looked. I am on radio here in my NW unibomber cabin, so am probably missing some of the best parts of this debate (kicking shins under the table, throbbing veins, googly eyes, melanomas, etc.).

  284. Luke Warm says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain ad from earlier today:
    “Joe the Plumber wins debate.”
    quote Famous Person

  285. Acmadeninejgaaad says at 10:26 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Joe Plumber just got laid-off Walnuts!…he doesn’t appreciate you trying to make political gains from your feeble attempts to identify colloquially with his trauma! You rich fuck!

    Joe just pooped in has hand and rubbed it on your face, (on his TV).

  286. McCain is a rude fucker….. God, McCain had a scary jack-o-lantern smile…

  287. wallythepug says at 10:27 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Funny, Walnuts wants to take care of all the babies…isn’t that welfare?

  288. Frankly, I do my own plumbing. Does this entitle me to some kinda tax deal?

  292. Damn, I was really hoping McCain would call him a ‘young whippersnapper’ or ‘wisehenheimer’.

  293. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:27 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Time for everyone to go to PlumbingHelp.com for Joe’s plumbing, heating and ventilation tips.

  294. AngryBlakGuy says at 10:27 pm, October 15th, 2008

    …everytime WALNUTS! smiles, the debate meter crashes on CNN.

  295. I am quite concerned that McCain doesn’t know that Downs Syndrom is not the same thing as autism.

  296. memzilla says at 10:27 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Let’s have a big round of applause for Apache and PHP, which have sucessfully powered wonkette.com to a non-crash finish. DRINK!

  297. Jesus Christ McCain, Palin’s baby has DOWN’S SYNDROME not AUTISM. Have you even met her family?

    Also, yeah, I’m sure that Palin knows more about special needs children than “anyone” since she had a child with downs for, what, a year?

  298. knoxtheharpy says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    My goodness Walnuts’ teeth are yellow.

  299. justshocking says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    nyjewess: they’ve been switching off.

    What the fuck is up with McCain going on about Palin and autism. Trig has Down’s.

  300. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain: I have a record taking on my inner demons.

  301. robaralis says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    What a great debate , HENNGHH!

  302. GreenThieves says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain won the Debate AND cured autism!!!

    Record of Reform. Country First. Seething Anger

  303. Hofstra! Bless you!

  304. HuskyMescan says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Texas2Step: In the olden days, you never called your servants by name. It’s an old habit like calling folks “fellow prisoners.”

  305. airvault says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    damn liberals hiding behind “HEALTHy discussion.”

  306. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    We have to stop spending our future and start spending our vouchers!

  307. knoxtheharpy says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    “We have to stop the spending.” You mean, like, the war and stuff?

  308. socalgalinVB says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    YES!!!! It’s Down syndrome…where did he get Autism???? Stupid man!

  309. lets see what Obama does he gets to go last….

    Say something to piss of McCain so he goes apeshit and attacks him….

  310. LuckyJim says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Somebody get a picture of teh Walnuts saying “I got it!” There’s yer election losin’ money shot, right there…

  311. Is Walnuts having a stroke in his closing comments or is he just showing us that he isn’t eloquent UNLIKE CAPTAIN GOVERNMENT … you know THAT ONE.

  312. Fighting Bill says at 10:28 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McJoe wants to get all up in women’s plumbing.

  313. azw88:

    um, make that Down’s Syndrome; PC alert.

  314. mirrorball says at 10:29 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Not only does her kid not have autism, but how would she be an expert anyway? The kind is only four or five months old, right? Not like they have to deal with the special needs just yet.

  315. Quarterback says at 10:29 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Had anyone watching the CNN feed noticed that the happy-sad-o-meter has the highest values for Obama coming from Republicans? And McCain seems to be getting the highest ratings from independents. It looks like Obama is winning the dems plus some big part of the republican base from McCain.

  316. forgracie says at 10:29 pm, October 15th, 2008

    America’s new direction…toward Hobo Land. Really, it’s just south of Orlando. They’re all safe and prosperous there…

  317. chrisinnc says at 10:29 pm, October 15th, 2008

    You know who I think we can all begin to reach across party lines and form a unified opinion on?
    Uncommitted Ohio voters. Moreso than fake ACORN registrants, these schizophrenics have proven that they should not be able to take part in elections.

  318. my friends bend over if you can still stand after being screwed for 8 years, i am a maverick who, if you elect me, will do all this so called “change” that “that one” brought to your attention and i have neglected for the last 3 decades…did i mention that i was a pow?

  319. EWWW! Hideous snort-laugh from Walnutz!

  320. Honored and Humbled.. Humble is the last thig mcCain is is Humble…

  321. superfecta says at 10:29 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Well, since John McCain has re-diagnosed the Palin offspring with autism instead of Downs, perhaps Jenny McCarthy can come employ her magic cure. No government money needed!

  322. GideonGlib says at 10:29 pm, October 15th, 2008

    So the Tundra Queen is going to be the Vice President of Special Needs Kids?

  323. matineeidol says at 10:29 pm, October 15th, 2008

    let’s get that avoidable healthcare.

  324. CNN snap poll - 90% say debates have not changed their minds.

  325. nietzscheprojectile says at 10:29 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Oh not another FIVE and a half years. Pffft.

  326. Itsjustme says at 10:30 pm, October 15th, 2008

    JoethePlumber: You are rich!

  327. keepinitrealyo says at 10:30 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Kittens: Most of what McCain said was racist code for “wisenheimer.”

  328. slappypaddy says at 10:30 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Hello, hey, Joe, you wanna give it a go? If you’ll plumber, I’ll voucher.

  329. JoethePlumber says at 10:30 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Oh….A long line of McCains! He’s not one of those new Americans who mess up the rest rooms with their foreign habits and make it hard for simple, humble plumbers.

  330. Pop Socket says at 10:30 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain wants to be a teacher but is too stupid to pass the PRAXIS.

  331. Sorry WORDS…. I was trying to aviod saying retard.. it is much easier to type.

  332. FreshCliches says at 10:30 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Given the high bandwidth surcharges and the Slashdot Effect, http://www.joetheplumber.com is no longer rich.

  333. robaralis says at 10:31 pm, October 15th, 2008

    omg there is a joetheplumber.com that business is set

  334. McCain’s on teh drugs.

  335. smellyal8r says at 10:31 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Wow, what do OH men want to hear?

  336. Damned.. I wanted McCain to go APESHIT!!!

  337. No, no, it’s SARAH who is autistic. Hadn’t you guys noticed?

  339. magic titty: Maybe she can see autism from her window in Alaska?

  340. even walnuts said good job; he’ll probably vote for him, too

  341. chascates says at 10:31 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Joe the Plumber has just been robbed by people who were convinced that he is wealthy and was carrying a lot of cash.

  342. prison rodeo says at 10:31 pm, October 15th, 2008

    OMG, McCunt is *shaking*. Not just hands. All over.

  343. Bob Schiefer did a good job. Is McCain going to blast out to the mens’ room now?

  344. airvault says at 10:31 pm, October 15th, 2008

    “Good job! Good job! KLENGHHH!!”

  345. McCain mad SURE to say GOOD JOB very LOUD and shake his Hand vigorously!

  346. Was McCain over-miked? It sounds like Obama projected a lot more but had the same level.

  347. chascates says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Atoz: win

  348. Itsjustme says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Mittens gave him the thumbs up! Ass kisser

  349. gliberal says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Live blogging continues now from Sarah Palin’s giant cottage cheese butt.

  350. Whitey Did Katrina says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain has to pretend to like our Barry AND his wife?? On the same night?? Debate closings are so in the tank.

  351. socalgalinVB says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    did McCain say “you got ‘em?”

  352. chascates says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    GOd, Cindy’s outfit blew out my TV screen.

  353. P Drizzle says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

  354. prison rodeo says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Whoa, Ms. Hopey’s Monica Lewinsky Special is bootylicious!

  355. Chief Grinning Eagle says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain needs to visit Joe Biden’s stuttering coach.

  356. Johnny Zhivago says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    McCain Wins Debate!

    - Some Person

  357. forgracie says at 10:32 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Do Cindy and Michelle really have red and blue dresses on??

  358. smellyal8r says at 10:33 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Boy, WALNUTS does not want to be any where near He who is. Cranky weirdo.

  359. OMG that Michele butt I’d cheer too.

  360. tripsydaily says at 10:33 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Crazy old man dance!!! McCain wins cute demographic -

  361. McCain did much better tonight, but Obama held his own… so a tie goes to the Black dude..

  362. nietzscheprojectile says at 10:33 pm, October 15th, 2008

    And Bob Schieffer wins the debate. He’s the best.

  363. superfecta says at 10:33 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I like that under McCain’s plan, my ex-Marine brother with multiple convictions and no college should be teaching schoolchildren. That should solve the problem!

  364. Itsjustme says at 10:33 pm, October 15th, 2008

    smellyal8r: about buttsecks

  365. Credit Bob Schieffer. This format also worked a hell of a lot better than the two previous debates. They actually, you know, engaged each other at times.

  366. William Bennet… he is such an ASSHOLE.

  367. StripesAndPlaids says at 10:35 pm, October 15th, 2008

    We are all Joe tonight.

  368. smellyal8r says at 10:35 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Initial roundup from CNN…McCain wins first 30 mins…Obama wins last hour…good enough for me. I do love D Gergen, for some odd reason.

  369. CometHasTheFloor says at 10:36 pm, October 15th, 2008

    His real name is actually Joe Hussein Plumber.

  370. “Grumpy McNasty” Love that line…

    Gergen has best balanced perspective on CNN

  371. CNN can only get Carl Bernstein? Not even Charles Barlkely?

  372. nietzscheprojectile says at 10:36 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Mittens and Hillz are going head to head on MSNBC reaction. Hello.

  373. OzoneTom says at 10:37 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Thanks to Ken, Sara and Jim to your insightful, and possibly drunken, stewardship.

    And of course to “Joe the Plumber” — have fun with your six-pack and cruel taxes.

  374. Why did John McCain just stick his tongue out at me, twice?

    Why doesn’t John McCain know the difference between Down syndrome and autism?

    And, most importantly, will there be a picture on Wonkette tomorrow of the weird little tongue-sticking-out dance John McCain did at the end of the debate?

  375. HuskyMescan says at 10:37 pm, October 15th, 2008

    I need some good cup of joe’s buttcrack tonight, thanks Wonkette!!
    FUCK, McCain sucked balls ..AGAIN.

  376. I don’t know about the rest of youse, but C-SPAN is showing endless after-debate footage of Smug Reptile Man and his Reptile Queen wandering around pretending to like the spectators.

    NO, CINDY NO!! DON’T EAT THE SPECTATORS! NO!!

  377. Early More Socialism Needs Bigger Communism dot com poll - Obama winz 82+ perscent.

  378. Oh man!!!! a Navy vet goes after McCain for the Liberty incident!! (CSPAN)

  379. Bill Schneider: “McCain is falling into the weeds.”

  380. “Behind The Scenes” bit after the debate is not very sexy.

  381. Schadenfried says at 10:42 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Clancy_Pants: I was gonna say that. I haz a sad :(.

  382. RobPetrified says at 10:42 pm, October 15th, 2008

    FOX just described the debate as a tennis match, with McCain running back and forth sweating, and Obama cooly standing there lobbing the shots back.
    Even these people seem to agree that while McCain didn’t do too badly, he didn’t score the kill that he so desperately needed to win.
    And this is FOX!

  383. Communiss Broadcasting Service.com poll 84+ for Barack.

  384. P Drizzle says at 10:43 pm, October 15th, 2008

    This debate changes absolutely nothing. The End. Insight of the DECADE!

  385. Well, bedtime for me. I’m old and need to get my rest–after all, you now khow important a woman’s “health” is.

    I still cannot believe he put air quotes around a woman’s “health.” He belittled women dying.

    I can’t think about anything funny about that. Walnuts deserves to go back for another fucking 5 1/2 years.

  386. tripsydaily says at 10:56 pm, October 15th, 2008

    [re=136403]Chief Grinning Eagle:LOL!!! I don’t think I could help myself in Bridgette case, just to fuck with Cindy’s ego… try to get under her tightly stretched skin….

  387. Schadenfried says at 11:02 pm, October 15th, 2008

    azw88: I used to work at a place where they gave the PRAXIS teachers’ pre-certification exam, many a person had to do a re-take. I was all but speechless when a woman called to register to take a re-test in Reading.

  388. kellykapoor says at 11:02 pm, October 15th, 2008

    This debate made me want to abort my fetus. Jebus.

  389. schvitzatura says at 11:04 pm, October 15th, 2008

    redwoodflyer: Americans need to stop dumping their waste fat skimmings into their sinks.

    Joe the Plumber is in the tank for the non-lean meat cuts industry!

  390. ThePuckStopsHere says at 11:05 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Here, by the way, is the skinny of “Joe the Plumber.” McCain didn’t get his name right, but you know…

    http://patriotboy.blogspot.com/

  391. ThePuckStopsHere says at 11:08 pm, October 15th, 2008

    Joe the plumber speaks:
    http://confederateyankee.mu.nu/archives/275632.php

    Really nice interview by Cavuto who asks, I swear, “What’s the deal?” That’s hard-hitting journalsim is what that is.

  392. OzoneTom says at 11:17 pm, October 15th, 2008

    chapka: Look up “tongue-jutting”…

  393. OzoneTom says at 11:21 pm, October 15th, 2008

    To be more precise, it’s what a jackass does when he/she (mostly “he” obviously) when he thinks that it’s gotten away with something.

    I’m sure that John McCain has been doing it all of his life.

  394. boyhowdy says at 12:51 am, October 16th, 2008

    Sarah Palin’s sister has a kid with autism, in fact.

    But she would still be the worst vice president ever. Or second-worst. Rock botton somwwhere.

  395. Ugh, someone make me a chick so i can abort despite that mean, stupid, senile douchebag. Anti-woman, parity, progress, gay, etc. Spending “freeze”. Spending fucking what? Dill-douche weed.

  396. And fuck joe the plumber. Pay your taxes like everyone else and SHUT IT.

  397. Dave Nalle says at 12:00 pm, October 17th, 2008

    Am I mistaken or didn’t Wonkette try to be funny once upon a time?
