If the FCC fines per station, per word, ...that's twice he said it, and it was on every station! I'd love to see Mccain go down in flames over his rudeness!

[Warren Stupidity]

1. Now I want those odd colored boxes back. Skinner!

[FirstLight]

2. ...???

why?

[TroglodyteScholar]

3. You're hearing what you want to hear rather than was was actually said

I'm no fan of McCain, but he was clearly saying "Of course..." in an attempt to begin a response to Obama's calling him out on Spain. Probably trying to say "Of course Spain is a NATO ally..." You know how his "S" sounds tend to whistle a bit.

This has no legs.

[JTFrog]

4. Exactly. Of course... cuts off and he starts again... of course and cuts off again.

So many legitimate things to criticize about McFart's performance in the debates without this.

[lonestarnot]

10. But I like this one.

:evilgrin:

[Left Brain]

14. Agreed

Besides, I'm not convinced this is a great idea. The rednecks in this country would just LOVE to see that McCain "called horseshit" on Obama's statement.

Never underestimate the power of bravado. Look how far it has carried Dumbya.

5. Here's what I wrote...

John McCain said "Horseshit" twice as Senator Obama was speaking about Spain.
The transcript says "of course" but the second time he says it it is audibly "horseshit"

Please pursue this, it is disrespectful to the American people to mumble and whisper obscenities as an opponent is replying. I would also think it is a violation of debate rules...


(kick this folks!!!)

[adamuu]

8. good letter n/t

[undeterred]

6. done

[FirstLight]

7. I disagree - to those who say this is something else -

the second outburst was picked up by the mike and was clearly "horse..."

of course doesn't match the context, nor does it match the fact he was mumbling, NOT trying to respond

nope, this has legs, and I think it is a good thing to pursue. So there!

[Phentex]

9. It's not clear to me...

It sounds like "course" to me both times. His lips don't appear to go for the h sound.

[TroglodyteScholar]

19. I keep seeing responsed like "lip readers agree..it's horseshit"

I challenge anyone to pronounce the word "horseshit" while making the F/V formation of the bottom lip and upper teeth like McCain does in both instances of this utterance.

I don't know who these supposed lip readers are that claim he's saying horseshit, but I can say with certainty that they suck at reading lips.

[Dr.Phool]

11. I say Horseshit!

:evilgrin:

[bmbmd]

12. McCain knows horseshit.

He is the horse's ass.
Did I hear chuckling from the audience?

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

13. Done!

[golddigger]

15. What a load of "Horseshit!"

:eyes:

[RufusTFirefly]

16. Sorry, but this idea is horseshit

He tried to say "Of course" twice. He didn't say "Horseshit."

Please. You need to get out more.

There are so many truly devastating things that can be said about McCain. Please don't suck all the oxygen out of worthwhile issues by focusing your attention on this fantasy, which is the secular equivalent of seeing Jesus' face in a toaster waffle.

[barbtries]

17. lol

i would, but i don't really give a fuck. it's just that he did it on national tv you know? i'd be a hypocrite to go complaining about someone using a word i use several times daily.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

18. Great except for one little tiny thing ....

He didnt say "horseshit".

[dgibby]

20. signed, sealed, and delivered! K&R

Thanks for posting. As for "did he or didn't he", let the FCC figure it out.

[pepperbear]

21. I take it that you were also outraged by the "nipplegate" fiasco.

Are you kidding? Frankly, I don't care if he did say "horseshit". What everyone needs to be talking about is the fact that the statements about mccain and Spain are true.

And then you want to punish the NETWORKS using the same fascist tactics the "values-appointed" FCC used back in 2004? That's a bit of a double standard.

For the record, you can't really hear the second thing mccain says very clearly. It could have been another "of course" as in, "of course you'd bring that up".

This kind of stuff makes us look petty and feeble, and is great fodder for the conservative echo chamber.
