The Obama campaign is all kinds of gung-ho about the debate Friday. They really, really want people to tune in. Why, I don't know. If, uh, you know, I, um, were, well, uh, you know, uh, Senator -- hold, hold, hold on a second -- um, you know, Senator Obama, I, uh, you know, um, wouldn't, uh, um, uh, want to be, uh, debilitating, I mean, debating, uh, you know, um, Senator McCain, uh, um, uh, on, uh, national Univision -- damn it!! -- national television, that's it!, uh, you know, without, um, a, uh, teleprompter, uh, that, um, you know, he could, uh, read his, you know, um, prepared, uh, lines off of.
But, apparently they still want everyone to watch. They must be pretty anxious about it, judging by the two e-mails they sent Michelle Malkin urging her not only to watch the debate, but to host debate watch parties. And, miracle of miracles, Michelle Obama is telling us that Barack is finally going to tell us what his plans are!
Transcript:
Hi everyone, this is Michelle Obama. The first presidential debate is coming up on Friday, the 26th. It's gonna focus on foreign policy. The candidates will debate their different views on how to keep America safe, strengthen our relationships with our allies, and restore our role in the world. Many Americans still don't know much about Barack or his plan to bring the change we need. They don't know about his timeline to bring troops home from Iraq responsibly, or his plans to rebuild our military and to achieve energy independence so that we can end our reliance on foreign oil once and for all. And they don't know his plan to restore the middle class, to cut taxes for 95% of American families, to provide healthcare for every American, and to improve our schools. They also don't know that John McCain shares many of George Bush's views. In fact, he's voted with George Bush more than 90% of the time, including not investigating the government response to Katrina, not supporting college benefits for returning veterans, and passing tax cuts for the rich at the expense of the middle class. So, this debate is a great opportunity to introduce Barack to your friends, family, and neighbors. That's why all across the country, people are coming together for debate watch parties. A debate watch party is a great opportunity to get together with other people who support Barack, and to reach out to folks who are undecided. That's what this movement's all about: people coming together to talk about the issues that matter to them. So, I hope you'll host a debate watch party in your home, or attend one in your community. Visit this website to get more information: my-dot-barackobama-dot-com-slash-debate. You know, there are just a few weeks left 'til election day, so now more than ever, we need to come together. Thank you.
The "no one knows about Barack's plans!" line was a little odd to me. Considering how vague and unspecific Obama has been throughout this entire campaign, you'd think they didn't want to go there. And lies and mischaracterizations about John McCain aside, the plans she speaks of are just plain odd. I'm really, really curious how Barack Obama will manage to "rebuild" the military, "give" healthcare to EVERY American, "improve" schools, and "restore" the middle class -- all without raising taxes. Either he believes in money fairies or Michelle is lying.
Oh, but wait! He's finally going to get specific about his plans this Friday! He's going to finally tell us exactly how he's going to raise taxes, enforce socialism, make the standard model for "big government" seem like a libertarian's dream, and ruin everything we've fought for in Iraq.
I'm so excited. I can't wait to hear all these great plans Obama has. It's going to be so awesome.
Hey, you guys laughing in the back -- can it. He's for real this time. I know he's said he's going to get specific for a long time, but this time, he means it.
I think.

2)He's going to make Wall Street pay back the bailout out money (actually, that could be interesting; wonder if there is room under that bus for Raines, Gorelick and Johnson?)
3)He's going to throw Biden under the bus.
4)He's going to pardon computer hackers.
5)He's going to veto McCain Feingold (oops, I meant pardon those in violation)
6)He's going pardon AstroAxel.
7)He's going to raise taxes on Wall Street (after they pay back the bailout money).
8)He's going to name Rubin bail out Czar. Rubin will then give FNMA immunity.

His plan could be "I'm not nor have I ever been George W. Bush" and he'd still be a better, more popular candidate than John McCain. But as Brian mentioned, the specifics of his economic plan are on his website. You can go check it out; don't worry, you won't be forced to give your e-mail address or pledge your allegiance to Gay Liberal Satan just for having a look. Words won't hurt you.
For instance, his tax plan will only raise taxes on the 2% of Americans who earn more than $250,000 per year. That might seem unfair to some people here, but this crowd is way out of the mainstream so it doesn't matter.

He's Arabic, Scrapiron? (By the way, Arabic is the adjective, Arab is a noun. Write that down for future racial bomb throwing, mmmkay?) I think the unsubstantiated rumour you're trying to puke up is that he's Muslim. Muslims and Arabs are not the same thing.
Re-read the second paragraph of your post there, and then ask yourself: 'Should I really be huffing this much glue?' Unless you make more than $250,000/year (no offense, but that would come as a surprise), you would pay less taxes. Yes, the evil sorta-kinda-black-and-maybe-Muslim guy wants to lower your tax rate, while making your psychiatrist pay more.
You want to hear about an incredibly stupid and unrealistic plan for the economy? Find a single economist that could make any sense of McCain's plan to cut taxes while balancing the budget. Such horseshit, but go on, lap it up.

His plans are vague, point out problems he says he'll solve (usually by throwing large amounts of money and Federal bureaucracy at the problem, and we all know how successful that approach has been in the past) and panders to the voters he wants. BFD. No more substance to his plan. McCain's site looks about the same, but has at least specific information about his tax plan compared to the vague overall plan with a few anecdotal examples in the Obama site. Neither have a real handle on how to reform healthcare, but the Obama plan is REAL scary from what is listed. I doubt the debate will answer these details for either candidate.
HOWEVER, it will be interesting to see each one show his ability to project an image in the "debate" setting, which resembles a real debate about as much as a pig in lipstick resembles a hockey mom wielding an automatic weapon.

Maggie, as for capital migrating to friendlier climates, so what? That's fine. It's called globalization, via capitalism. Welcome to the year 1980! Hire a Mandarin tutor for your kids, they'll thank you when they're rich by 2008.
I'm aware that reducing tax rates can sometimes increase total receipts. I also know that if John McCain's plan will give working class people $200 in annual tax savings, and Obama's plan will give them $800 (rough approximations of what I learned from Brian's link, which is based on the Tax Policy Center's research), that John McCain will lose the election. His wife doesn't need a tax cut. Do the American people agree?
By the way, I owe you an apology, Scrapiron. I asked an Israeli friend and Arab is indeed an adjective. Arabic is usually used to refer to the language. But the point stands: nobody that I'm aware of except you has ever asserted that Obama is part Arab. Muslims are of many ethnicities, including 'black', like Obama's father. (Arabs are not 'black', though some Afro-Arabs live in Africa, like the Janjaweed in Darfur.) Straighten out your religious and ethnic bigotry, please.

Libs seem to think that BO's tax increase on those who earn more than $250K will solve the worlds ills. As a small business owner, I and thousands like me would be in that "out of the mainstream" group, and would likely be forced to shut down and lay off our employees. How will that help the economy?
What it will do is this: close down small businesses like mine and allow me to drop back under the $250K bracket and ultimately save me money. Is that how we plan to "rebuild America"? By destroying small and medium businesses? Tell me that won't hasten the switch to moving companies overseas.

Rob, the Left doesn't think anyone will really move overseas to avoid taxes. Alec Baldwin and Susan Sarandon ruined that one for them.

They should change their last name from Obama to Teleprompter.

Wow, all this discussion of Obama's plan. It must be known, then. That's enough by itself to obliterate Cassy's theme.

Actually, Willie, I went to bed, then I went to work. Hadn't read this blog all morning as I had a presentation at a client's office. (It went well, thanks for asking! I'm going to get a *huge* bonus this year...)
I don't hate the rich. I am one of them (marginally, compared to most people in my country), and yet I want to pay high income taxes. Does that make me stupid? Or unselfish?
Maggie, don't lecture me about Catholicism or Christianity. I was part of it, and I have studied it. You have your views on it and I have mine, and neither can be said to be definitive as passages can be cherry picked to support any bizarro notion of morality one might choose to subscribe to.

Hyper,
You can always pay more. But why do you feel the need to raid other people's wallets?

Provided his teleprompter with information on his "plan" doesn't mess up on him.

Really hyper, you've got a lot of nerve and
arrogance coming on anothers blog and telling
anyone what to do.
As to the lecturing, there was no lecture.
I don't give a flip what you have purportedly
studied, understudied, or non studied.
Jesus was here for one reason only, and it
wasn't to emulate Obama as a community organizer.
And the only thing bizarro about any of this
is you.

How would Jesus emulate somebody born nearly two millenia after he died? Okay, he walked on water, resurrected the dead, and changed water into wine (awesome!!!), but dude invented a time machine too? That's it: I'm buying a Jesus Is My Homeboy t-shirt and wearing it unironically.
