Obama's stuttering in debate...Why

[GiGii 4]

McCain looks like his next job might be the Santa Claus at Macy's.

But you must say, he's an ignoring Santa Claus. He keeps ignoring Jim's questions, and answers the thought in his head at the moment in stead. He ignores the 5 min rule. He's just trying to run the show, and looking like a jackass.

I disagree. I am sitting here with two Dems and they agree that McCain is making Obama look like a schoolboy.

Obama is making the right points for the best direction of our country. But for you, he isn't singing about bombing Iran.

The most ironic point made by McCain is that he will not allow another holocaust, but i don't see him doing anything about the genocide in places like Sudan.

er what?? where have i ever supported bombing Iran? I think you might be mixing me up with someone else or you are just a little confused?

I had to listen on the radio and couldn't see them but I was very surprised at Obama. He is usually a much more polished speaker and (The other one was right and it is stammer and not stutter) to hear him stammer so much was strange to me.

Ideas?

That's not stuttering...it's stammering and they both do it. Most people do. Do you judge people who stutter or stammer?

Yes I do. I think they're generally stupid and unable to coherently get their point across. Is this not what you think?

I take it you've never done public presentations yourself.

Those who rarely ever do it are likely people who sit in front of the camera all the time and talk to audiences, like talk show hosts or news anchors.

Politicians do, and so do average Joe's. I wouldn't mind giving it to politicians when I could, but the stuttering/stammering is perfectly normal. Of course, kaydee's having a ####### over something perfectly normal so I guess that means he secretly wants some manly love and is courting Obama's voice. Get out the tape recorder and vasoline..

No teleprompter.

I had a horrendously stuttering professor for a POLYSCI course at Va Tech. You bet your ### I judged him. I judged him as unworthy of my time and a terrible waste of money I paid for that class. It was horrible!!! There is no way he should have been permitted to give lectures. While he may have been a brilliant man, he was a complete waste in the classroom and providing a quality learning experience - esp. considering the cost of the class. We probably only got 25% of the lecture that students in similar courses received.

Ouch, I won't go too much into criticizing the ignorant points made in this particular post. Nobody goes without stuttering / stammering across points especially in debates where the topics were not given ahead of time. I am pretty sure unless you were American born, or English is your first language, that we will have to ask you to repeat yourself a few times to completely understand what many of you are saying. The problem with these debates is that they have to dumb down the intelligence so that the person with the average intelligence can understand exactly what their points are. That is the unfortunate part of the debates. McCain made some some valid points, especially regarding the surge. The problem is, that we should have never needed the surge in the first place because we should have never been in Iraq until we have completed our mission in Afghanistan. Obama made clearly more points (stammering or stuttering across)... especially regarding the failed policy. McCain also clearly misquoted or tried to misrepresent Obama in several points, and Obama clearly had to truly represent his points. Where as Obama didn't do the same with McCain. Obama is going to be a diplomatic president, who will take on the concerns of our country, and try to develop working relationships with many of these countries we have failed to connect with during the Bush years. I'm sorry but if you feel McCain will the job, if you feel we are bad now, let us continue this trickle down theory of giving the money to the rich, and see how much of that shakes out of the tree and continue to spend on a war, in which we as country are gaining no benefit whatsoever. There is so much more to discuss, but it appears that when you speak about this particular subject, people are so closed minded, that they are unable to see great points even if you pin it to their forehead.

With this 700 billion goin out the door all Barry's programs are never gonna get through. When asked what he was gonna cut, he never gave an answer.

McCain on the other hand talked cutting spending and getting rid of pork.

Obama is and as always been pie in the sky. Obama as built is candacy on promises that can in no way be kept. The saddest part about it is the people that blindly follow him no matter what.

Oops, my bad.

I guess civility goes out the door with you. Its unfortunate when adults try to use insults to get a point across instead of try to use facts. Its very obvious that when you remove $700 billion from the economy due to failed policies of a Republican president and continue to spend $10 billion on a war that we shouldn't have been in to begin with, I guess you blame it on the guy who is trying to make change.

Its a shame that I see this from all many Republican supporters. Smug and very insulting people, who instead of bringing new points to the table, use insults and slander to try to bring someone down.

I really wouldn't worry much about the insulting, these insults were like Pee Wee's "I know you are but what am I".

I don't see smugness, I see someone trying very hard to justify their political sycophantic-like cheerleading.
