McCain Rolls Eyes At Obama In Debate (VIDEO)

The disdain for Obama is nearly dripping from McCain's mouth.

"I admire so much Sen. Obama's eloquence," he said, "and you really have to pay attention to words. He said we can 'look at' offshore drilling. You got that? 'Look at.' We need to do it now."

He then criticizes Obama for never traveling to the southern hemisphere, citing it as a reason why he doesn't support the Colombia Free Trade Agreement.

"Maybe you ought to travel down there and visit them and maybe you can understand them a lot better," McCain said, disregarding the fact that his running mate has only been to two other countries and just recently got her passport.

As Obama gave his response, McCain rolled his eyes dramatically.

Looks like he's now lost the mutant vote as well:

Barack Obama has received the political endorsement of America’s favorite precocious mutant: Bat Boy.

“This boy is a shining example of the American dream,” Obama said at a small press conference held after the meeting.

“Coming from meager beginnings, cast out for who he is, he now enjoys the freedom and limitless possibility granted to every American.”

Was he rolling his eyes at human rights?

This sums up the debate best, methinks:

Okay, first of all, WHO CARES if Sarah Palin recently got her passport? She isn't running, NObama and McCain are. If you're going to bring Palin into this, lets talk about all of Biden's gaffs. Or how about the fact that NObama thinks there are 57 states... and he's actually been to them all. Wow, I don't even know what to say about that one.

And as far as the "eyeroll"... did you count how many times NObama smirked and laughed when McCain was talking? Not to mention how many times he interrupted. I didn't actually count, but I can go back and do that and let all the NObama kool-aid drinkers know if they are interested. But unfortunately you are all so brainwashed it won't matter.

BTW, by letting the Bush tax cuts expire, those "95% of Americans" who's "taxes will be lowered", will actually end up paying more.

Talk about brainwashed! Obama didn't chuckle nearly as many times as I guffawed. Some of McCain's statements were quite funny. Every other sentence he added another spending plan: buying up mortgages, providing school vouchers, special needs reasearch funding, but failed to say how he would pay for them and also promised a freeze on spending and tax cuts galore. He's also not good at math.

Listen people, McBush AKA Mc L i a r and his trusty side kick and VP choice Sarah McBlunder and his gang of thugs are gonna hit us with everything they have this month! We need to flood Obama's campaign through the home stretch with as much money as we can give through October. We all started very strong and now we all have to pick up even more steam and finish what we started, our families and our soldiers are counting on us to fight the good fight to the end! Let's continue making this about the Economy, Health Care, Equal Pay, Education, Etc and we will win this Election! My family and I are struggling like many other American Families, we have donated a $150 dollars every month even though we really cant afford it but if we lose this election to McCain, the loss will be much bigger. Even my thirteen year old daughter and my seven year old daughter are engaged in this Election and have took money out of their piggy banks to help invest into a better future for not just them but for everyone that believes in Fairness, Justice, Equality and Hope in America. I've always told my children, that the rule is in everything they do in life, you always start strong and you always end strong. Obama/Biden/08

Did any body notice the couple of sighs that McCain made during the debate?

[LoloZ]

09:53 AM on 10/16/2008

A COUPLE??? It was like Darth Vader! All you could hear was McCain breathing heavily, kind of snorting, and sighing. Ugh...

[cyndie1030]

09:58 AM on 10/16/2008

Not to mention the snorting and grunts, the every second eye blinks and the rude interrupting and talking way more than his allotted time.

[cdhinkle]

Why don't you go back and recheck. I'll bet you anything NObama talked way more than McCain. But oddly enough, he still never says anything.

McCain was a P.O.W for 43,800 (5 yrs.) consecutive, incessant, relentlessly harsh hours of horrendous existence.

Does that individual return from such a horrific experience in the same mental health he entered it with? How does the residue of such a horrific experience, hidden from view, express itself? How does the residue of such a horrific experience currently influence this individual’s world view? This individual’s thinking process?

Suppose it was it his maverick thinking that led him to place himself in danger during a mission getting himself shot down? How much does an F14, or whatever he was flying, cost tax payers?

Or was it his need to differentiate himself from papa? You know, earn a medal, and get out from under papa’s shadow.

Or was he over-compensating for his graduating in the bottom of his graduating class?

Erratic behavior. Impulsive behavior. Self-destructive behavior.

Does McCain have Tourette syndrome? His smirks, blinks, groans, raised eyebrows, rolling eyes during the debates suggest this may be so.

Is this an individual prepared to lead hundreds of millions of human beings? Over see a fragile national economy? Command the largest national armed forces on earth? Be a rational guardian of a nuclear arsenal?

Can this individual be trusted not to act against the best interests of humanity?

What is his true mental health?

[cdhinkle]

10:55 AM on 10/16/2008

Wow, you are pathetic. To even suggest that he may have purposefully become a POW is sickening. And the fact that you're more worried about how much the plane he was flying costed than how he was tortured and all that he went through, shows what kind of person you are.

Go drink your kool-aid.

[lolee]

12:04 PM on 10/16/2008

Gee we haven't heard that one before.

The drink the kool-aid line is so tired.

Is that the best you've got?

Just because someone doesn't agree with you or your choice of candidate
they are automatically under some spell? What an over simplistic way to make sense out of things.

Tell yourself what you must to feel better - denial and stubborness

You just can't bring yourself to consider even for a minute the strong points of
the Obama/Biden ticket.

He did act happier last night than the last 2 debates but this guy has something internal going on with him. I don't know if its PTSD or what. He just appears like he can't deal with life in general without blowing his stack. I know it took all of his will to appear happy.

If this is the sort of non-verbal communication that McCain will bring to his negotiations with foreign leaders on key military and economic strategic planning, we will end up even more isolated from and hated by the international community than we have been during the W administration.

McCain wished the debate were held in a bus so he could sit in the front and ....

What is he now? A 72 year old teenager?!?!

Obama's as unflappable as a paralyzed penguin wing.
Obama's so cool he sweats Cherry Garcia Ice Cream.
Obama's as collected as taxes in Nottingham.
Obama's as smooth as a turtle-waxed margarine.

McCain looks like the guy who steps into the lifeboat and immediately starts trying to decide which of his fellow passengers he will eat first.

And NObama is as experienced as a 6 month old learning the alphabet.

[TchoupitoulasCanal]

11:32 AM on 10/16/2008

This is the type of comment that is typical of the GOP.....quick to attack with a statement that makes absolutely NO SENSE

How many six month olds, who are barely able to sit up unassisted, have scant neurological development, and can barely make out primary colors have mastered the alphabet? I mean, really.....

Your VP candidate barely has a handle on basic geography, so you may want to check yourself before you end up looking just as ridiculous as your party does at this point in time.

McCain has seen some "talkies" but most of his favorite movies are silent ones. I think that's where he gets his facial expressions from.

He looked totally unprofessional and un-presidential
all night long. Hard to watch.
