DEBATE #1

If I were to comment about last night's debate it would go something like this:

BRAVE PRESIDENT FIGHTS OFF SLEEP, FINISHES DEBATE BEFORE NODDING OFF

Heroic U.S. President, Barack Obama, despite being heavily drugged by a Fox News analyst posing as a backstage orderly, soldiered on and finished this year's first presidential debate using only the 25% of his brain that remained awake.  Despite this handicap the president was able to point out that his administration had made some gains while still being unable to make headway in the caffeine gap; a gap, he promised, he would address and close first thing in the morning.  He also noted, as his chin slumped onto his chest, that naps were a presidential prerogative and, having said so, demonstrated the fact by taking several during the course of the debate, most often while his opponent was speaking, but not always. He also caught a wink or two while moderator Jim Leherer  tried unsuccessfully to shut up Republican candidate Mitt Romney who droned on incessantly in an effort to put both the President and the audience into deep sleep.  

Although independent analysts declared Romney the debate victor by a narrow margin, Fox News and radio anal-ist Rush Limbaugh, called it a landslide. 

Unconfirmed reports say that the President's last words Thursday night were, "Annniversary annishmersery, we'll shoot hoops in the morning."

But, of course, I'm not going to comment, so you;ll have to get your news somewhere else.
