Open thread: Armageddon
posted at 8:27 pm on October 2, 2008 by Allahpundit
A few people have e-mailed to say that the livestream in Ed’s open thread complicates comment discussion by slowing refresh times, so here’s a no-frills alternative. Take your pick.
While we wait for the main event, “enjoy” the last installment in her series with Couric. They saved a doozy for the finale.
Game face!

Biden wants to build schools along the border along with 7,00 madrasas? LOL!!! Talk about a bridge to nowhere! First, who and how are we going to build the schools? Good luck finding non-extremists to do it. Then, where are you going to find teachers that are non-extremists? By Biden’s logic (and likely inaccurate numbers as a base), we would have a whole bunch more than 7,000 madrasas in the end.
He still thinks we can talk to these people.
MarkABinVA on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
OMG bidens pants are on fire!
custer on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
Palin is in total control of this debate and has had Biden on the defensive for the past half hour.
CanadianGuy on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
Israel is still there. No America? Russia, for the win.
Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
we need to “talk to iran”
that’s worked out just great joe
ikez78 on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
Biden blew that one…big time.
He lied.
dugan on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
Is Spain in Afghanistan? In NATO?
Anyone?
swami on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
looking for the jewish vote!
anna on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
Israel IS our strongest and best ally. We WILL support Israel. Two state solution is a mistake, though.
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
Gov. Palin keeps taking biden to the woodshed.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
israel-palestine
sarah–2 states is the solution
israel is our strongest and best; we will support israel; build our embassy in jerusalem
she is better than joe, younger, less experienced and WAY better
james23 on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
Good one Sarah!
anniekc on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
She is answering well on this….
Static21 on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
emb assy in Jerusalem Yes!!!!!
Bullhead on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
YOU GO, GRRL!!
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
He is using third person!
carbon_footprint on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
LOL, Israel has no better friend than Joe Biden
El_Terrible on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
haha, joe biden talks about himself in the 3rd person.
anna on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
“Joe Lieberman’s gonna be pissed off about that tomorrow.”
BRET BAIER STRIKES AGAIN.
jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
is Palins left nostril bigger than the right one?
custer on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
does joe really think him declaring someone or something a failure that it is so?
ikez78 on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
Palin is holding her own. She came to play.
Will McCain get off the bipartisanship bull and wrap the current crisis around Obama’s neck.
Biden just used the third person for himself.
BuckeyeSam on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
“something to that effect”…don’t ya listen to the questions?
uncivilized on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
I got to say it! She is hot right now (no silly, not that type of hot). She is being strong on foreign policy
lsutiger on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
…and how can you have any coherent Middle East policy when you’re hamstrung by the Democratic Party, the “zionism is racism” crowd not only in the UN but on college campuses (who’re also Obama supporters), and our anti-Semitic EU allies (like France)?
Puritan1648 on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
Well, color me impressed with Palin! Maybe we can attribute it to the Vatican calling out the “Death Party” today?? :)
MarkABinVA on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
last year, obama essentially told Israel they have to accept the Palestinians.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
GMTA!
carbon_footprint on October 2, 2008 at 9:53 PM
Not a 2-state solution, Sarah!!!
tikvah on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
Such warmongers Obama/Biden!
SouthernGent on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
joe said this on hezbollah and lebanon? i call bs…again
ikez78 on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
He keeps addressing Gwen…she adresses America.
Over.
1GooDDaDDy on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
Biden is getting angry
John Doe on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
It’s called Lebanon :-)
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
Is Obama learning that he’s said ten more things than he ever did?
BuckeyeSam on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
Should we get you two a room?
tickleddragon on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
Hezbullah is still a terrorist supporter.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
sarah can’t be too much of the bush admin defender. she and mac should go their own way on this
james23 on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
Two things:
- Do you think it’s fun for Joe, knowing that he can go up there and just make up stupid shit, and no one is going to call him on it, or remember it in two day?
- Do you think it’s just killing him that he’s on the debate stage with a leftist moderator, and rank rookie on the other podium, and he’s getting absolutely nowhere?
Jaibones on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
What the hell is he on about?
We kicked Hezbollah out of Lebanon along with France????!!!!
Too bad Sarah probably won’t know enough to call him on it
EnglishMike on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
diplomacy = cureall
and Israel should “talk” with Iran?
ikez78 on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
what’s that dot on biden’s head?
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
the only problem with biden lying is that the press will give him a pas, he can say whatever he wants, truth, lie, whatever..
JustTruth101 on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
haha we both love israel. oh gawd.
anna on October 2, 2008 at 9:54 PM
Biden fix your sinuses!
jencab on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
But, as he just said..Ahmedinijad doesn’t control the nukes…right, Joe???
Static21 on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
“Don’t Look Back”
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
he’s gonna suck that mic up his nose!
SCGOPgirl on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
Wow! Did you hear that deep breath from smokin’ Joe? Wow!!
MarkABinVA on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
Get out and text people!
jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
OMG…I’m so glad she is saying this.
SouthernGent on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
…Joe’s talking as if he and his party have been sealed in carbonite during the Bush Administration…it’s all their fault that “Iran’s on the march”…they were too busy screwing up the mortgage market to deal with Iran, I suppose….
Joe’s losing his cool….
Puritan1648 on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
finger pointing backwards …
wonderful line.
yo on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
In your face, BIDEN!!
anniekc on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
You know, it strikes me as quite interesting that on this foreign policy stuff the little governor from a small little state is not only holding her own but going toe to toe with a 35 year senate veteran!
JonPrichard on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
Palin is amazing.
CanadianGuy on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
Wow, what a great way to flip the McSame argument around. Good deliver, great line.
Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
McCain/Palin – REAL Change
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM

ikez78 on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM

james23 on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
Nice! Very Nice answer!
gator70 on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
No joe. You and obambi will go to iran and kiss ahmamadjihadi’s ass. You’re useless.
Great answer, Sarah! Too much fingerpointing backward!
techno_barbarian on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
For someone who talks about change….LOL!!
repvoter on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
TAP! TAP! TAP!
She just won!
lsutiger on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
Did he just say that Obama called for NATO troops in lebanon in ’83?
rw on October 2, 2008 at 9:55 PM
MWA HAHAHAHAHA!
Too much looking back. Good gravy on a stick, that’s gonna get some play.
Jewels on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
Palin is on her A game.
CanadianGuy on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
bushES. He pronounces that funny.
jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
LOL!!!
MarkABinVA on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
God…Bush, Bush, Bush, Bush, Bush…*hick*
SouthernGent on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
MUST. BASH. BUSH. OBAMA. SAYS.
anniekc on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
Palin has been solid thus far. Biden can’t help himself and just flat out lies
saltydogg14 on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
Joe is getting strident. How long is this debate?
Bishop on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
He’s a dork
CinnamongirlUF on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
we’ve heard what obama’s policy will be… surrender.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
Well, Bush has been negotiating and McCain wants to “bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran..”
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
Did I hear an audible sigh from Biden there?
carbon_footprint on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
Change we don’t need, Joe!!!
Static21 on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
And how does he respond?
BUT! GeorgeBushGeorgeBushGeorgeBush!!!
Jewels on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
Past is prologue? Now who did Biden rip that off of? Same as Bush’s Same as Bush’s Same as Bush’s, yadda yaddah
JonPrichard on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
Is Biden reading a poem? “George Bushes”
Who is more respected then us, btw?
Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM
That’s because those policies are actually the correct ones, you moron!
Fu7k world respect!
techno_barbarian on October 2, 2008 at 9:56 PM

MarkABinVA on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
Joe, baby…
George Bush isn’t running this time.
Repeat that to yourself.
Tell your boss.
Tell your campaign.
uncivilized on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
Last time I checked, we still are the most respected nation in the world. Fuck you, Biden.
BuckeyeSam on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
She said nucular.
jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
did she just say, nucular?
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
So, was the Couric interview an intentional train wreck, to lower debate performance expectations? Because this does not look like the same woman.
Go Sarah!
brirodg on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
Joe Biden on the silver lining of the U.S. military failing in Iraq and not being able to stand up to Iran:
econavenger on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
Sorry, all. Gettin’ a little pissed off here at the lies.
techno_barbarian on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
Didn’t he start? Why has this turned around that he always gets the last word?
unmeritedfavor on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
taking a breather, but I would like to post NOW a big FU to Brooks, Will, Noonan and the other stuffed shirt Republicans , incuding some on thisw blog, who have been trashing this terrific candidate fr the last 3 weeks. FU
james23 on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
SURGE!!!
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:57 PM
He totally fell for that trap. He kept repeating Bush…lol.
