Didn't see the debate, but I wish they would not attack one another and present themselves in a more civil manner. Try and explain what you would do better than your opponent w/o trashing him. I guess I am old fashioned(and would probably lose a debate)

This debate was very civil actually. Nobody really attacked anyone personally. Both remained very calm and made their points. It was a good debate.

I counted 3 references to Kerry's Vietnam service. There wasn't any mention of how he ended that war though. Seems that would be a selling point. Then again the troops are popular these days and calling them baby killers would probably be a big faux paux. Hmmm, if elected maybe that's his real plan to end the war?

Here's the text...

"Now, as to this question, let me say first that I think the vice president and his wife love their daughter. I think they love her very much. And you can't have anything but respect for the fact that they're willing to talk about the fact that they have a gay daughter, the fact that they embrace her. It's a wonderful thing. And there are millions of parents like that who love their children, who want their children to be happy. "

Now we decide - what point was Edwards trying to make...

A: Cheney and his wife love his daughter.
B: All parents love their children and want them to be happy
C: Cheney's daughter is gay.


Now lets put another developmental obstacle in place of "gay" (and believe it or not homosexuality is a genetic developmental obstacle).

----Now, as to this question, let me say first that I think the vice president and his wife love their daughter. I think they love her very much. And you can't have anything but respect for the fact that they're willing to talk about the fact that they have a [dow syndrome] daughter, the fact that they embrace her. It's a wonderful thing. And there are millions of parents like that who love their children, who want their children to be happy. ------

Wow - he's impressed  and *respects* the fact they love (and even EMBRACE!!!) their daughter  who is not the same as 90% of the  population. Well gosh, Edwards, we should submit you for cannonization for your understanding that parents love their children even if they are differnet. Such a profound notion.

He's a snake. He's a redneck Dixiecrat.

This is Cheney's response. Its obvious he was bowled over by Edwards slimey tactic, and it came through gritted teeth.

"CHENEY: Well, Gwen, let me simply thank the senator for the kind words he said about my family and our daughter. I appreciate that very much.

IFILL: That's it?

CHENEY: That's it. "

If you think that was a  cordial acceptance of a compliment - you are naive. You may note there was no contact between the two after the debate, probably because somebody would have went to the hospital.

Are you purposely being dense? That what you took from the above post - a mispelling and some screwball conclusion my efforts are to equate homosexuality with downs syndrome?

What do you call trying to make a point out of pasting the same quote twice, but changing one of them to read "retard" instead of "gay".... and equating the two?

Nash, explain level you are on. I need to know if I should use different perspectives, metaphors or allegory in responses to you. If you're going to go six-year-old, Ill keep my responses monosylable four word sentences.
