I find it terribly funny that you went to all the trouble of writing such an intelligent post using words like jocular and fruition when at the same time the context of said post was on Kerry having a pen and Bush having extra paper. Egads! No! Those cheaters! |
Always glad to give you a chuckle.
I'll assume you didn't know the true context of what I posted, so I'll indulge you quickly and give you a quick background:
Immediately after the 1st debate, Mr. Drudge posted a quick flick on Kerry, and had someone speculate as to what exactly Kerry flipped out of his hand. Drudge, being the evil speculative genious that he is, insinuated that Kerry was possibly cheating - because under the strict guidelines of the debates, no extra sheets of paper could be used other than the clear sheets of paper on the podiums for the debators to write notes on.
Well not only was it clearly shown that Kerry wasn't cheating, because he had a pin withdrawn instead of some sheet of paper, but it seems as though it was, ironically, Bush who had drawn out and unfolded a piece of paper that had come from his side pocket. Hence, the irony of Drudge actually possibly busting his own personal candidate. And hence, my turnabout is fair-play sentiment about demonstrating how Bush may have possibly be cheating not in one, but two debates so far.
Now you can take that for what it's worth (not much, I'll assume), but personally I just like pointing out the lovely irony and contradiction of the conservative media/mouthpieces, and turning the tables a bit on them. But do I personally think much of this issue enough to cry "foul!" and take off my tin foil hat here?
As I stated earlier, my answer is a resounding, "no". And that answer would be the same for either candidate, and the supposed conspiracy theories surrounding both.
