Live Now: Third Party VP Debate

• I think whocares has Gonzalez confused with Gavin Newsom. Newsom is the one who had an affair with his top aide's wife. I have been an SF politics watcher for many years and have heard tales of Willie Brown and Newsom chasing "tail" as whocares so rudely puts it, but never have I heard of Gonzalez, Daly, Peskin, etc. chasing "tail." Personal attacks rather than substantive usually lead one to conclude the blogger may agree with the substantive issues.

• I watched the debate and I found Gonzalez, Castle, and at times even Wayne Root refreshing. All three VP are against FISA and warrantless wiretapping. Warrantless wiretapping is Un-American. Gonzalez is against the war. Gonzalez made a great point on Afghanistan--does the Democratic party really think they are going to win a war in Afghanistan. No one ever has! Not the Russians and not the U.S. I even agreed with some of Root's points on civil liberties, which was unexpected as a progressive. The above comment is laughable. Just because Gonzalez, Castle, and Root are not complicit in the 1 million Iraqi deaths, just because they offer you a choice better than the lesser of two evils--which still leaves you with an evil government--they are ridiculed. I wonder if the poster is planning on enlisting anytime soon? He or she should if they are voting Democrat or Republican. Quit letting other people fight the wars you support. By the way--all three VP candidates said they are unequivocally against the bailout. I liked what Castle said about bankruptcy court being the place to deal with these companies. Gonzalez is for the people, for health care, for peace. Root and Castle are better candidates than the Republican and Democrats. I enjoyed the debate.

• Hey guess what? I just figured out how meaningful this bullplop is! I filed it under "who gives a crap what a dirty hippie skirt chaser things versus a bunch of bullshitters with no chance of winning" and Matt "trim coordinator Gonzalez" can seriously take his pursuit of "pussy" and cloak it in all the bullshit he likes but in the end, he's just a pussy hound who loves sex and could give two shits about principle.
