Debate or Debacle…


 


I want to come home,


Eat dinner and relax,


Put on a pair of warm slacks,


Sit on my sofa and watch the tube,


Instead I am subjected to watching the two boobs…


 


Bush and Kerry or is it Heckle and Jeckle,


They both make me see spots, yes speckles,


Maybe it is my glasses that need to be cleaned,


Maybe it is trying to figure out which one is the real fiend…?


 


Supposedly the last of the debates this night,


Why couldn’t it be in the daytime, when out it is light?


Then my favorite shows won’t be pre-empted,


Just to watch these two jerks do one upmanship on each other, oh brother…

Leno said it well one night: Martha Stewart sits in jail for lying, and these two clowns are loose.

there are more jerks under heaven and hell we could ever imagine ... one upmanship is for those who are always looking at things from the down side ...

I hope your 'favorite shows' don't keep you from voting...but from the sound of things maybe I do.. :?

One upmanship? How about my seven inches compared to your three electrons? I agree, though. Let's look at what the hell they've done to benefit the American people throughout their political careers. We do that, and long-faced Kerry falls off the planet. That's just my opinion, and if you don't like it, take a flying leap into eternal stupidity.
