Does the phrase "curb stomped" mean anything to you, Mr. President?

Jesus God, that was ugly. Kerry was poised, articulate, and got right to the point. Bush hemmed, hawed, hesitated, eye rolled, smirked, sighed and stared blankly so much he looked like an unholy genetic crossing between Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest and a sewing circle at a retirement home for the terminally befuddled.

And let's not forget the line of the night "But what about Poland?" (or something like that)

I had a feeling he was going to wipe the floor with him. Loved how quickly Bush turned away to go to the podium at the beginning, knowing how conscious he was of the heigh differential. *smirk*

Kerry's been doing this kind of thing for years. He managed to get Georgie boy worked up and flustered - not too much, but JUST enough to let him know he can do it. Mwahahahaa.

Oh I have a feeling that this was Kerry's opening salvo. There's lots more fun to go...can't wait till next weeks open forum!
