Much of the world will be watching the debate on CNN International.
I would imagine that CNN International will broadcasting the debate all over the world.

Wonder what our sisters and brothers around the globe will be thinking?

They are counting on us to remove a madman & his criminal administration from power.

1. Indeed...
... but we will be getting the CNN US spin afterward. My brother-in-law is going out tomorrow instead of staying home to watch (he's unemployed at the moment, and it's on in the middle of the day here) - he can't bear it (every poll puts his blood pressure up these days).

5. If I was living somewhere else I'd be keeping an eye Bush
to see if he mentioned my country next on his laundry list of countries to illegally invade.

That's why.

9. Kerry should spike the camera and say "There is one question here
And that question is do we want this two faced incompetent deserter bumbling from crisis to crisis for the next four years? We have seen the effects of his corruption and cronyism. We have to take control of our government and return to the company of civilized nations.

10. I'm excited!
I've got the Dramamine and barf bag all ready for when the Fox cameras do their close ups of the chimp. I'll have to remember to stop by the liquor store because I don't think I can listen to Bush while of sound mind. I need a serious buffer between the inane jingo-spew and my brain.

Kerry is going to kick ass. We know this. Of course, the naked Emperor will have all the media sychopants atwitter, but we'll know the truth, and so will any American who isn't a pod person. Speaking of which, it seems as if 'The Invasion of the Body Snatchers' wasn't just an anti-commie era paranoia flick. We're living it.

11. Is CNN International any better than our CNN?
I get it but have never watched to see.

12. Not really...
About half of it is from overseas centres and the other half from the US. We also get BBC world (much better) and Sky News Australia (not great but better than CNN as they don't kowtow to Howard generally).
