Many of you out there have seen the McCain-Obama presedential debate as I have, I'm sure of it. The other day it was impossible to see anything else on any station besides this debate. I mean it was on EVERY channel! What I just discovered however was the use of racial slurs on internationally broadcast television.
"'That one,' Republican John McCain said contemptuously of Barack Obama, pointing" in his direction (as Canoe.ca reported). Seems this happened amid a heated discussion regarding energy policies.
Racial slurs aside, from what I can decipher regarding this debate is that: Obama seems to be prone to his share of 'trash talking' (if you will) but at least he addresses the questions put forth by the speaker. McCain on the other hand, simply kept reminding people how many times his opponent voted in favour of tax hikes (true or not, I can't say), rather than addressing any questions.
And did I mention McCain's main strategy for evading each question- he started each ellusive sentance with "my friends.."
Well "my friends.." this is politics for you!
