    Bloody f*cking Hell Mr. Cheney, even MY math isn't that bad. Observe...

    1066 / 1205 = 0.884647302904...

    So roughly 88%, pretty close to an even 90%. Go cheney yourself, dickhead.

    I don't feel well today, so I'm not going to watch the rest of the debate until later (recording it). I just wanted to get this off my chest since I had a math test this morning. I may have flunked the math on that test, but I'll be God damned if I can't figure out how to find a simple percentage.
    You need to count Iraqi security forces. Are you even listening to the debate?

      Hmm. They both seem to be repeating what we've already seen in the previous debate, but Cheney does a better job at it precisely because Bush did such a horrible job.

        That's because Bush is Cheney's lap dog. :rimshot:

              Edwards response to Cheneys response was really weak.

                Giancarlo has entered the debate and says and I quote (through PM):

                I believe Cheney has totally shredded and embarrassed Edwards and not even the most liberal democrats could deny that. Cheney has dominated the debate, and really pounded Edwards with facts. Edwards is too simplistic and is not conveying his message properly enough. He doesn't respond well to the Vice President's attacks and has stumbled many times.

                  Anyone notice how everytime Cheney corrects Edwards' facts, Edwards just repeats his incorrect facts again.
                  'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

                    Very true.

                      Lots of good Haliburton stuff. About damn time Cheney's called on that.

                        Though some of the "corrections" are a bit dubious....I'm not the best at math, but I'm pretty sure 68+70 != 1,000+

                          diplmat, well, for example the 90% claim is really not a non-fact, it's a way of counting. From his point, he is right and his facts are correct. But so is Cheney.

                            Because Cheney misunderstood what he said. 90% of the COALITION casualties were American. Cheney said that Iraqis make up a big part of casualites. Edwards reiterated because Iraq wasn't a part of the coalition to invade...Iraq.

                            On another note...Edwards made a pretty damning case against Halliburton. I'm glad to finally see it put so coherently on the national stage. All Cheney could say is "you know we're not guilty". Yeah, and neither was OJ.

                              So...Kerry's invading Palestine?

                                Nelson Mandela! Didn't think Edwards would bring that up. Nice.
