Debate Spotter

Saturday, October 02 2004

I find it intriguing that during the entire debate between Bush and Kerry, that no one ever said meat. Not even Jim Lehrer! I know this because I used Cameron’s new tool, the Debate Spotter.

Bush said got killed twice. If I were the pedantic sort, I’d cry foul, seeing that you can’t get a verb in past tense, or any tense for that matter. I can die, or change it to “was killed” but “got killed” just doesn’t work for me.

Kerry said maimed. Lehrer said die. Bush said he forgot Poland, and here’s a picture of him saying that.

I’d like Cameron to open this up for weblogs so I can see how many times I’ve said rancid milk or haircut.
