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!

Iran is not close to gettting a nuclear weapon? Oh, really?
SouthernGent on October 2, 2008 at 9:46 PM
Biden loses points for using “game changer.”
BuckeyeSam on October 2, 2008 at 9:46 PM
Do you think Joe has fundamental problems with things?
gator70 on October 2, 2008 at 9:46 PM
keep it clean, my friend.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:46 PM
GO PALIN!!!!!!!
jencab on October 2, 2008 at 9:46 PM
Biden’s getting shrill – I think he knows he’s on the verge of getting his ass handed to him.
uncivilized on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
The more flustered he gets, the more he flails his hands about
anniekc on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
“below the belt” my a$$.
Django on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
Biden is doing well and has a handle on the issues for sure, but Sarah is gaining in confidence and has hit him hard a couple of times. She is doing more than holding her own!
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
now pakistan–see if sarah has done her homework
sarah–call him out, they will NEVER go to war in pak or do anything in afgh other than retreat
james23 on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
Because we defeat Al Queda in Iraq…madrasses (sp?)..how many in America?
lsutiger on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
Why do Biden and Obama have such a hard on for Pakistan?
ctmom on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
Hey Joe! Osama bin laden disagrees with you on the central front on the war on terror.
techno_barbarian on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
A madrassa IS a school you moron
EnglishMike on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
if we have actual intelligence?
he’s an idiot.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
Favoritism: Ifill is saying Pockiston.
BuckeyeSam on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
Thank god she went after him for that “Central war on terror” LIE. She should have said Osama Bin Laden, though. That would have struck harder.
jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 9:47 PM
she pronounces it newkewler like bush, lol
anna on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM
She told him techno!

I Stand With Israel.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM
Palin says Ahmadinejad is “not sane or stable.”
CanadianGuy on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM
Great point!!!!!
carbon_footprint on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM
The issue with Iran is Israel. Pakistan has other concerns before Israel. We must defend our allies.
Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM
quoting petraues….awesome
ikez78 on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM
Heh…calls A’mad insane…love it.
SouthernGent on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM

Good Lt on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM
He just can’t help being condescending. That’s right Sarah- slap him down!
anniekc on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM

CanadianGuy on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM

SCGOPgirl on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM
Ahmedinejhad is not sane or stable, but Obama wants to meet with them! Sarahcuda is calling Obama dangerous! NICE
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:48 PM
…nu-cu-lar…nu-cu-lar…we’re gonna hear the chattering classes tomorrow say something about nu-cu-lar….

Puritan1648 on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
Hows she doing so far guys?
Cardiganfox on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
Neither’s mentioned that Pahhh-kistan has an Indian counter-balance, where Iran does not.
yo on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
sarah–iran cannot be allowed to acquire nuke weapons. She is awesome–wacky Imadinnerjacket, she pounds on obama, as well or better than mac
james23 on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
Nu cu lar. ugh. Is she trying to sound like Bush?
tickleddragon on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
Yep!
Heh. Wonder what the SNL sketch will be like this week?
techno_barbarian on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
6 sec states endorse McCain – say it Palin :)
Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
The Iraq central front of terror comment by Palin is gonna leave a mark.
swami on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
Isn’t that where Obama visited in 1981 for three weeks. He said in the spring that it gave him a great world perspective.
BuckeyeSam on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
She knows more about national security than the whole democrat braintrust
John Doe on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM

anna on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
Damn, maybe she should debate Obama too.
SCGOPgirl on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
At least she doesn’t pronounce it nook-U-lar…..
Static21 on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
Some level of engagement yes, but not at Presidential level Gwen
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
She’s winning the foreign policy portion of this debate.
CanadianGuy on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
Woo, way to go on women’s rights!
jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
She is clearly connecting. Women’s rights…wow…great line.
SouthernGent on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
diplomacy does not mean without preconditions.
biden just doesn’t get it.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
I love how she is looking at the american people!
ctmom on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
“Pakistan has nuclear weapons – they built 7000 madrassas – let’s give them money for schools – It’s the central war on terror – we will attack in Pakistan with good intelligence” – Biden paraphrase.
What the hell is Biden talking about? How does all this add up to a rational policy?
forest on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM
OMG, I’m loving Biden
El_Terrible on October 2, 2008 at 9:49 PM

CinnamongirlUF on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
There it is…”unconditional”…
uncivilized on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
she should say obama meetin our enemies one on one is probably one of many reasons biden said obama wasn’t qualified
ikez78 on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
Who is Biden looking at? LOL…he looks shell-shocked.
SouthernGent on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
That’s a punch at KCouric.
Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
Nuclear is a tongue twister for some people. I know plenty of people who pronounce that way. I have to slow down and focus or else I would, too.
CookeyD on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
Biden is lying AGAIN.
jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
“Oh sh*t- why’d she bring up women’s rights? I can deal with women’s rights!”
anniekc on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
Biden hearts lying for Obama
econavenger on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM

SCGOPgirl on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
He DID say it! Biden is lying for his new boss.
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM

EricPWJohnson on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM

CanadianGuy on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM

uncivilized on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
Dang!! No wonder she has done so well politically.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM

Static21 on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
ooooo, joe is soooo smart on iran because HE knows who is in charge and noone else does
ikez78 on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
He keeps trying to bait her with lies. I can’t wait to see the number of pinocchios he’s going to get tomorrow.
Jewels on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
Say the SecStates endorse McCain. Win this section right out.
Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM
Biden said what? Oops.
dugan on October 2, 2008 at 9:50 PM

PaCadle on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
Get out the You Tube debate clip.
BuckeyeSam on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
Biden AND Obama don’t know diddly about how Iran works.
sulla on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
Maybe they should STAND UP, huh Biden?
jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
Good hits from Palin on diplomacy and Iran, Biden’s back peddling, now trying to get back on message
EasyEight on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
Another easy ad, “Barack Obama did not say he’d sit down with Ahmadinejad.” I think his quote on that would be easy to find.
mikeyboss on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
joe spins barack sitting down with the hate america crowd.
swami on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
Did Carter talk with Iran during the hostage crisis?
Done.
yo on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
Yes he damn well did! He’s lying his ass off.
Bullshit Joe. Our allies have been talking with iran for 5 friggin’ years and haven’t gotten anywhere.
Idiot.
techno_barbarian on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
We HAVE gone the extra mile in diplomacy!
Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
“even” bush met iran now….

ikez78 on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
Joe is getting flustered, he’s losing it
james23 on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM

anniekc on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
America has been working the middle east since I was in grade school.
A lot of good that has done.
madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 9:51 PM
Biden is fidgeting and grimacing like he’s got Tourette’s!
mikeyboss on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
Biden’s hair plugs will answer his next question
Physics Geek on October 2, 2008 at 9:52 PM
The Spain line is lame
