The split screen really gave so much more depth to the thing, so much more information somehow.

The Daily Show is hilarious as always, and of course they're not looking to spin Bush's abysmal performance as manly or something. It's a great relief.

I dunno, I thought Bush kicked Kerry's ass handily in the debate. I despise Bush as much as the next person, but Bush simply trounced him.

Bush is gonna win, Kerry needed the debates to pull him ahead and he failed miserably.

Huh? For real?

Will someone let me know if they'll re-air that Daily Show segment?

Thankfully, even the usual suspect mainstream media whores are so far not seeing this victory you've seen, dantonac. I myself saw a borderline-retarded simian being called "Mr. President" between spastic bouts of words strung together like shiny little beads of puke, but as I keened above, I don't expect the rest of the country to see what I see.

The derisive snorting laughter, 10-second pauses, mangled words, mangled names, sputtering, stammering, flushing, smirking and robotic repetitions didn't seem, I dunno, unpresidential to you?

No way?

All y'all, please post what your media says about it tomorrow. I know you will anyway.

Headlines here: Kerry trounces Bush. I read the headlines waved at me while I was driving home, but I didn't check which newspaper and can't find it online.

The BBC article sits on the fence, terminally balanced as ever, but their graphic shows 45% of people thinking Kerry won vs 35% thinking Bush won.

The ABC poll also showed that 89% of Mr Kerry's supporters thought he had won, compared to only 69% of Bush supporters who thought the president dominated.

This is fun:

No beating about the bush on these walls
October 1, 2004

Al-Asad air base, Iraq - The US military, which traditionally avoids meddling in politics, is expressing its views about the US presidential race in the one place where a soldier can speak his mind freely: the latrines.

Here, in graffiti, young soldiers wax philosophical - albeit crudely and with a fondness for four-letter words - about God, death, President George Bush and Democratic rival John Kerry.

And if one straw poll is to be believed on this gigantic air base in the western Iraqi desert, Kerry is due to rout Bush in the November 2 elections, after the Massachusetts senator picked up 73 votes to 58 on the bathroom wall.

The toilet wall vents a surprising amount of anger over Bush, considered by many rank-and-file a great wartime president, and heaps a mountain of cynicism on the US presence in Iraq.

Much of the bile is dedicated to denigrating Bush's home state of Texas.

"Here I sit cheeks a-flexin'. Bout to make another Texan," one rhyme reads, repeated in multiple stalls.

In black felt pen, one soldier scrawled a maxim from Plato that rings true whoever wins the November election: "Only the dead have seen the end of war." - Sapa-AFP
