7:32 Brian Jennings can’t move his face. He may have recently had botox. Tom Brokaw is sort of talking shit on Palin. He seems to have some liver spots on his head.
7:33 Gwen Ifill is wearing a stunning bed quilt. Her face doesn’t move either though…botox?
7:34 Palin walked out and asked if she could call Biden “Joe. Goddamn her.
7:38 First question goes to Biden. What a soft ball opening question. Biden looks like hes having an allergic reaction. Oh fuck. Biden already deffered to a Barak Obama answer; can we leave that to Palin please? Ok, he mentioned middle class.
7:41 Palins talking. Bitch has already mentioned going to a “kids soccer game”. Shes not really answering the question. maybe she wasn’t listening. To be fair, I don’t know what the effects of face lift scars are on ones hearing. She is wearing waaaaaaaay too much lower eye mascara.
7:43 Biden is calling McCain out on having little to no understanding of the economy. Oh Palin has had her blush airbrushed on.
7:44 Palin said Obama is only voting his party line. Her lipgloss is so….sticky looking.
7:45 Alright Gwen! Sub Prime meltdown question. Shit. Bidens body language is amazing.
7:46 Biden has done his homework. I love him. I love his turkey neck and how it waddles. Uh oh, he keeps saying de-regulation. Palin probably doesn’t know what that means.
7:48 Palin can’t finish a sentance. Wow, does everyone have capped teeth?
7:49 Biden called out Palin on avoiding the question.
7:50 Wow, she just avoided the question huge time…rambling…crazy eyes, like that lady astronaunt who tried to kidnap the other lady.
7:51 Danielle is very upset about taxes. “I know the numbers!” Danielle is the Whitney Houston of my life.
7:52 Biden just invoked Regan. Regan shuts everyone up. Its like having a warp zone.
7:53 Palins makeup team needs to tone her shit down. And dye her hair all one color. Oh christ. Shes already talking about States.
7:55 Biden invoked Scranton. Uh oh, Biden’s talking about the internets. He just lots middle america.
7:58 Palins suit is fierce. I hate that I have to say that, but it is.
7:59 Palin just said “bless thier hearts in referrence to exxon. Gavin just yelled “she has said nothing in the past minute”
8:00 Danielle just yelled “we hate you”
8:02 Palin has not stopped talking about the “toxic mess” on mainstreet. I hthink she means wallstreet.
8:05 Biden is loosing his patience with Palin. I don’t blame him. He is a good man, I would have lit her on fire 20 minutes ago.
8:07 Madex just yelled “Solar Bitch!” in relation to Palins speach about energy. Shes not answering any of the questions. Not just dodging them, just talking about whatever.
8:08 oh no, I think Ifill wrote these questions to entertain herself at Palins retarded answer.
8:09 Man, Palin doesn’t understand the environment. Please jesus, please let her say jesus made global warming
8:11 Biden just bitch slapped pallin with his awesome powers of logic.
8:12 Erin just yelled about co, pal and coal mining and coal related layoffs in appalacia. That might be the fastest way to my heart. I want to marry that girl.
8:14 At least palin can pronounce nuclear.
8:15 Crap, Biden just lost 70% of people watching this debate.
8:15 BIden completely supports same sex benefits. Biden just sayed the constitution calls for same sex benefits. OH no! he accidentally said same sex marriage. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO….fuck. Fuck. Fucking fucking fuck. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCk.He just lost a shit load of people. fuck.
8:17 Palin came back by immediately slamming gay marriage.
8:19 Biden brought it back by saying he doesn’t support gay marriage. Thank god. yes biden…lie to the american people and then legallize sweet sweet gay marriage nationally.
8:21 Thank god we are finally on the foreign policy questions. Palin just referred to Mc Cain as an american hero. That really shouldn’t be allowed.
8:27 Im loosing steam. On glass of wine #3. I’ve lost count of the Danielle cookies I have eaten.
8:31 Palin is talking shit that makes no sense. oh christ. Uh, did I hear wrong or does she believe we are working with the Taliban? I mean, I guess, technically a couple decades ago we did arm them, but it seems like we may have parted ways.
8:33 Palin just got served. Where is Kfed? He needs to dance up in this piece and maybe pump his crotch in everyones face.
8:34 I wonder if she could find Pakistan on a map without a prompt?
8:39 has Joe Biden been to a spray tan salon in the last 48 hours?
8:40 How was Palin not on a “real Housewives” episode? Biden is the most. I feel really bad for him. Hes basically saying the sky is blue and palin is screaming something about chickens. Im drunk. damn, palin’s shoes are pretty great too. You know, I hate anyone who makes me nostalgic for hillary clinton. Palin makes me nostalgic for hillary clinton.
8:46 Biden just tied Bush to Mc Cain vis a vi no new policy.
8:48 Danielle has only now expressed the desire for palin to drop dead. I am impressed she lasted this long.
8:49 Pappa Joe Biden is controlling himself well. Seriously, who wouldn’t love this man? who I ask you? Hes like the grandpa who shows you his butterfly collection and teaches you all the latin names of their subspecies and then slaps you in the face for drinking and driving. I love him. Also…hes hot.
8:51 Palin becomes less attractive the longer she speaks.
8:55 Biden doesn’t have the “stomach for genocide in darfur” has anyone ever said anything hotter? no.
