Watching Tonight's Presidential Debate Online

farkinga writes "For those of us that no longer have a television, live TV events can be a challenge to watch. Fortunately, tonight's Presidential Debate has attracted the attention of most US broadcasters, many of whom will provide online viewing options. Leading the way is Hulu, a joint venture between NBC Universal and News Corp, who will stream the Fox-branded feed tonight — assuming they worked out the bandwidth issues that came up during the second debate!"

    News for Nerds. Not news for Republican Talking Points.

    It must be the liberal bias. Have you noticed that Anonymous Coward is always bringing up Republican Talking Points(TM)? I'm pretty sure your astroturfing howto specifically requested that you go on the record with the Official Talking Points. Posting them Anonymous Cowardly just dilutes the brand.

    • Do you really foresee an Obama administration twisting words like Terrorism, Freedom (fries), Patriot, etc?

      Absolutely not. Well, maybe Freedom. In general, though, leftists like Obama have a whole different set of words they twist to coax your liberty away. Obama won't be interested in HomeSec (but he won't be interested in doing anything about it, either). He will instead focus on taking your treasure and giving it to administrators of programs which claim to help poor people.

    • Do you foresee him installing crazy supreme court judges that have and will continue to fuck our country until they retire?

      Yes. Although, both parties have put some crazies on. In fact, I was extremely disappointed in Bush for not elevating Thomas to chief and adding another "regular" justice. Who says the new guy has to be in charge?

    • Do you foresee him installing a vice president who refuses to talk with the press and cannot answer basic questions?

      Nope. Obama chose Biden. He loves to talk to the press. What he says is another matter. It was quite disappointing that Palin was unable to call him on his brazen statements. He was nearly Clintonian in his ability to use true statements to fabricate erroneous impressions in the Debate.

      Palin on the other hand was clearly not quite ready for the national stage. I'm glad she's not running for President. But she is clearly intelligent and passionate, and McCain appears to have chosen a lieutenant he can train to fill his shoes. Obama seems to have chosen one who can train HIM.

    But.. Please stop forcing me to defend McCain. He's done some scummy things to this country in the name of "crossing the aisle" during his term as Media Darling and Maverick Senator. Unfortunately, he's the only thing standing between us and the terrifying efficiency of "Same party Congress and President."

    Charlie is one of the three ladies who live with me, Robyn is an ex-girlfriend who has stuff stored in my basement. I see you don't read my journals... caution, nsfw.
