#1 Obama would wipe the floor with you anyway - even being weal as he is.

Looks like the Iranians may hang you from a streetlamp anyways so whats the use?

Good for them by the way.
Good people they are.

#2 How about Sarah Palin against both of them? They can even go two-against-one against her.

#3 Live? TOTUS not invited? Fuggedaboudit. Besides, how do you debate someone who has sunshine coming out of his head instead of his butt?

#4 Obama would lose, horribly, without his teleprompter and a lot of help - if you take the blinders off, you can see that he is, after all, a fucking idiot who can read lines well and that's about it.

Remember, US presidential "debates" are NOT real debates -- they are dumbed down press Q&A sessions. They do not question each other, nor do they have to defend their position against others questions or analysis. US Politicians are wimps compared to parliamentarians when it comes to this.

#6 Having a 30 minute 'Question Time' in the US House once every other week, in which the President would walk in and answer the opposition, would do wonders for this country.

#7 Agreed, assuming there were an effective and articulate opposition ...

#9 Unfortunately Barry cannot make it President Ahmadinejad so we are sending Ambassador John Bolton instead. We hope this will be alright.

#10 I watched all the Iran Presidential debates on Press TV links. Ahmadinejad is an inarticulate and insufferable bore, and a poor liar in spite of all his practise. Liars look down when they utter deceit; Ahmadinejad did exactly that. And he refused to explain his claim that angels accompanied him at his UN speech. He didn't want to have to say: I made it up to appeal to pious idiots. Then there was the $1-3 billion in unaccounted state funds. Actually he might have a kindred spirite in Hussein O. But all they would be debating would be the content of Obama's apologies.
