Debate #2

I thought Kerry clearly won both debates. But there are immensely bigger questions than who won. Here is a small part of an Oct. 8 commentary by Wm. Rivers Pitt (www.truthout.org):

"Bush was every inch the angry man on Friday night, which is dangerous enough. But to witness anger combined with belligerent ignorance, with a willful denial of basic facts, to witness a man utterly incapable of admitting to any mistakes while his clear errors in judgment are costing his country in blood, to see that combination roiling within the man who is in charge of the most awesome military arsenal in the history of the planet, is more than dangerous. It is flatly terrifying."
