Obama knew in the first five minutes that he was not going to be allowed to lie to Gov. Romney's face.

He waited until the next day when Romney was not there to defend himself to spew more lies.

He's sent his surrogates to lie lie and lie some more.

Pathetic loser.

What did anyone expect from a lazy, disconnected from his job, puffball president. He doesn't do his job, he only parrots what his handlers put on the teleprompter, and when it comes time for him to man up - nothing, vapid and empty, there is nothing there.
An empty bag of hot air is about the best we can explain it. Heated up by who knows what others are pulling this puppets strings?

tut tut!! Juan Williams completely defended Obama. He looked right at the camera soon after the debate and declared Obama the winner. He did not back down.

He is fighting for ME?? Don't think so. He can't even fight for himself. The governor was Batman and oh dark won fell way short as Robin....some super hero, huh? Unable to even drive the bat-mobile.

"The realization that another rant by a liberal commentator could cement the reputation of Obama as an incompetent and add to the image of a hopelessly inept president will temper post-debate media anger. The moderator cannot afford to be laissez-faire in the fashion of Jim Lehrer, and will prove far more partisan." Count on it. This is war, and they will not go down without a bitter fight. The headlines for Oct. 17 have already been written. Obama will be the winner, your opinion be damned.

From historian Victor Davis Hanson and thoughtful description of the melting credibility of Teleprompter Obama.
And, the leftist media are mad and feel betrayed.

I loved Mark Steyn's description of BHO during the debate as "the listless sourpuss staring at his shoes." Perfect description of our CinC last week. America should be ashamed!

Someone compared Juan Williams to a crash dummy. When I'm forced to look at him that's all I can think of. Between him and Bob Beckel I can't think of anyone more obnoxious. Oh wait, I just thought of one more guy.

A razor-sharp analysis by VDH. The media will now pull out all they have to rescue their boy. It's going to be disgusting, folks, take an extra blood pressure pill. I think we have an October surprise similar to the George H.W. Bush lies about an affair coming. It was a lie but they ran with it in the weeks leading to the election. After all, lying for the 'right cause' is acceptable to these POS.

#3, Juan Williams was still claiming Obama won the debate several days later on Hannity's radio show. I couldn't believe it, but then I realized it was Juan Williams, and that's what he does.

Romney made his fortune in part by squelching fatuous fools who had run businesses into the ground.

Juan Williams has offered himself in sacrifice upon the Alter of Amorality. In wondering why, I have to assume it's all about ethnicity. How sad, because that makes him a hugh racist.

The presidential debates are nothing more than an set-up to play 'gotcha' with Mitt Romney and, for that matter, all Republican candidates who came before this day. Only Newt had the guts to tear them apart during one such debate .... to great applause, I might add.

I have little doubt that the moderators will continue to 'rescue' their lame candidate when necessary. Who can forget Georgie Porgie's interview with Obama, who referred to his 'Muslim faith?' Georgie quickly reminded the president that he meant to say his 'Christian faith.'

Someone told the bamster -- he could be "king".......

He believed it -- and enjoys all the "extras" perks that come with being the prez. He didn't know -- however -- being prez is a JOB and he would be called on to lead. Not from a teleprompter -- but -- from his ability.

Nuff said!!

LZK

Romney has always been better positioned than the biased media and their captive pollsters were willing to allow. Now they are seven months pregnant and they can't hide it anymore. I predict a bouncing eight pound Republican baby on Nov 6.

....remember Valerie Garrett's first interview with Tim Russet?

She made slip of tongue an said, ".....when we rule....."

Obviously, that debate format was raaaaacist.

More than anything, Hansen calls attention to the most horrible aspect of our culture- children brought up (like Obama) without having much of anything demanded of them. (They even tried to make kids stop working on their parents’ farms???) If you just paid attention, and understood that, you knew better than to vote for him. (137 “present” votes??)

One poster here, who teaches, said on another article that his urban students were horribly disappointed in Obama’s debate performance. Tragic.Those kids (and their parents) don’t get it –nor do the host of liberal idiots Hansen names. You get to success, to self-realization, empowerment, whatever –through trial and error. By doing –doing it wrong and then doing it again until its right. So many kids are being deprived of that! (And the ones that aren’t stand out by a mile!)

That’s why our parents did things like gave us those piano lessons, etc. –to learn, not the skill of piano playing, but competence, to learn discipline and how it builds success. Good schools do that. Bad parents don’t.

Anyone looking at Obama’s life –including the last three years-would be an imbecile to expect anything else of him.

two things I noticed in the debate that haven't been talked about or reported that I've seen.

First, did you notice that when the question had something to do with how each of them would work with members of the opposition party TOTUS got in his obligatory, I got Bin Laden soundbite - apropos of nothing pertinent in the current discussion. That's his crutch right now and it doesn't even belong to him; the SEALS and the army pilots are the heros.

Second did you notice how often TOTUS was nodding his head in agreement with Gov. Romney? It was so weird, he was being slammed and he just kept nodding in agreement. He's so use to sycophants telling him what he wants to hear that he didn't even register what was being said to and about him.

As 0bama, Williams has now moved to mute-button status on my TV.

The leftists in the Democrat Party and the MSM are furious with Obama because they have taken their best shot in 50 years at transforming the Republic into Euro-America, and their meticulously groomed and prepped ball carrier has fumbled the ball. And they realize too late in the day that they made a fool’s mistake to think that an unaccomplished, undisciplined, untested lazy Choomster was not Presidential material, but rather a certain failure waiting to happen.

The left’s most excellent Presidency has proved to have feet of sand, and the once-and-for-all American Socialist Reformation is not to be.

Twas the alpha male vs. the metrosexual. Obama was just having a low testosterone night.

Lehrer: "Mr. President do you have a response To Governor Romney's assertion that you are lacking on the facts?"

Obama: "Present"

Victor Davis Hanson is on target once again. As he points out, Obama has been so pampered and protected by the MSM and opinion-shapers in general that he is actually unable to perform on his own unaided. Hanson's point that Obama sees himself as the representative of the preoccupations and neuroses of the liberal "intellectual" class is right on.

#17, speaking of the teacher's black students being horribly disappointed in The Won's debate performance - I live in a large southern city among many blacks, and the shame is palpable. I actually feel sorry for them.

Here in Houston, for decades there was a sign on the back fence of a home off of Westpark, which is a road locals use to avoid freeway traffic because it is unusually fast and wide. The sign said, "Vote Democratic."

About four months after Obama's election, the word "SUCKERS" appeared in black paint. I very much regret not getting a picture.

Mensch vs. illusion.

Doesn't matter the 47% of the nation.

And the other 210% the Democrats will get to the polls who don't exist, are dead, are aliens, or who were dogs and cats until 20 minutes before voting.

To bolster my point - just saw this elsewhere ...

On Twitter

If Romney wins Ima Shoot his *** Its Gonna Be another JFK insident

Romney is trying to ban tampons. Omg. I’m not even kidding, someone go with me so we can shoot him dead.

If i could i would murder mitt romney #idgaf #hatethatwhiteracist****

I’ll shoot mitt romney & both of his knee caps & smack his *** with the BuRner til he die

I just wanna assassinate Romney… I hate him.

Romney need his white *** kneecaps blown off black ppl ain‘t the problem it’s lazy rich ******* like him who never scrubbed a pot before!!!

The rest are definitely unsuitable to post here

I hadn't noticed that 18. It seemed to me that often when Romney was speaking, Barry's attention was somewhere else: like looking at his Blackberry, disguised as notes. He was probably nodding in agreement as ValJar or Axelrod told him what he was to say when next it was his turn to speak.

It's completely understandable that the leftist media machine would feel betrayed by Obama - especially front line propagandists like Chris Matthews. Here they've been working 'round the clock for years, making up and selling the fiction about his brilliance and wonderful leadership, and then he shows up at the one crucial event where he alone has to run with the ball and he drops it like he was sedated.

He'll give a better performance next time but only in style... and with the help of an audience allowed to participate as his hallelujah choir.

Just thought of something--just went to Yahoo home page, debate/campaign is still in the news--but no mention of the Great [Phony] Leap Forward in employment...

I was amused by a comment made by some idiot on TV that biden was a real debater and would be all over Ryan. I am sorry, but Ryan will have him for dinner. Biden is a freak show and picked because he would not upstage the magic one.

#28, maybe you should forward those tweets to the Secret Service.

Again, remember WAG THE DOG, Dustin Hoffman the crazed movie producer priving to his secret agent Robert De Niro, that he could CONTROL the Diane Sawyer LIVE on the air.
She was wearing an earphone and repeated exactly what he PHONED IN. Ray Bradbury, Jerry Sohl, George Clayton Johnson readers KNOW an ear piece can be implanted in one's ear. Is that better than a teleprompter?
It's his only way out, listening to his commie comrade Valerie Jaret's every word.
Also, Biden, being the top intelligence man for the Jesuit army, will do brilliantly. He is a life long Catholic with incredible memorization training. His bluster is cover.
Brilliant cover.

And, #24, what a shame it is that the affirmative-action candidate, Barack Obama, undeservedly received the honor of becoming our first black president.

(For that is what Zero is ... affirmative action all the way.)

Think what true pride black Americans --and ALL Americans-- could have taken in a bona fide, qualified first black president.

We all know there are better-qualified, conservative African-Americans out there who could wipe the floor with Obama in a debate. Allen West, for one.

God help us if what #28 posted happens. I can just imagine the explosive response that will spread over the land. There will be change beyond their wildest dreams. Talk about arousing a sleeping giant. They won't know what hit them.

Whinerman vs Winnerman,

obama would be toast already but for the 47% and the nearly 100% media. Here's to their diminishment if not full demise

Zerozipnada was humiliated to have to been called to stand on a stage with a mere human. It, Zerozipnada, simply felt betrayed by his subjects to have to stoop that low.

I think one of the reasons the person dressed up to be president failed at the first debate is because he got confused and thought he was playing the part of Kingfish from the old Amos and Andy show and was speaking at a meeting of the Knights of the Mystic Sea. That would be a role he might possibly be capable of pulling off; acting like a president is outside of his range IMHO.

35 - Sure, there are intelligent, honorable blacks who'd be great political representatives. Blacks don't want them! Obama IS what they want. The shiftless, lazy, uncooperative, venal, careless, scofflaw bum: that's the pefect winning black politician. They want their leaders to embody their ideal: the worthless layabout who suddenly wins the $10 million lottery. Hard work? Self-sacrifice? Integrity? Don't make me laugh. Those are all "whitey" traits, and will get you absolutely nowhere when it comes to selecting a leader among blacks. Why do all black-run communities end up as dumps? Because the people in them are irresistibly drawn to flashy conmen instead of sober, moral workhorses. It could have been predicted that, when given a chance to have a black president (and you only get ONE chance to be the first at anything) blacks would throw up this cheap little nobody.

My...my...what a difference one debate makes. The anatomy of a disastrous debate performance is easy to explain in Obie's case:

Ability to Lead = 0
Ability to exhibit high character = 0
Ability to exhibit good judgement = 0

Bottom line - 0 + 0 + 0 = 0 according to my math. As I said the other day, no rounding required.
