Bush-Kerry Debates Offer Sharp Contrast in Style

By John Whitesides, Political Correspondent

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The debates between President Bush (news - web sites) and Democratic rival Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites) promise a sharp contrast in rhetorical styles, with the steady and disciplined Bush dueling the deft but sometimes rambling Kerry in a showdown of proven performers.

Ok, that's when I stopped reading the article, but you can continue here:

Steady and disciplined? Well, that's one way of putting dumb and stubborn and arrogant.

3. What Debates? Kerry needs to CLEAR HIS NAME of Smears, Hammer Bush

and get out of there.

Trying to pretend to debate with all the restrictions which prevent
real debating would be a waste of time.

What you really want to watch is a little something called "substance", 'cause with all the problems we got today, I'd kinda like to have a President whose got "substance", Okay?

Now go back and re-write it.......assh*le!!!!1

On Edit: Noticed that I had footnoted the last word by mistake, so in the interest of proper journalism, let me corrct that error;

1 This is specific to Mr. Whitesides and not to be confused with any other journalistic posterior body orrifices.

5. Truthful sharp contrast: One is intelligent

The other one, er, isn't...

And has the author of this article ever seen Bush when he is caught off guard about something he doesn't know anything about? (the Black Journalists speech comes to mind)

Ramble City....
