Hah. Foreign policy at last!!

by edo 10/23/2012 1:47:08 AM
I grant that foreign & domestic policy is inseparably intertwined, but I think deficit & jobs have rather hijacked debate.

Obama getting in all of Romney's pro-Israel points.

sarcasm is necessary to being a unique character.

Why do we always have to have Israel's back? Haven't we done enough for them yet?

are we watching the same debate: Romney presidential?

by lori 10/23/2012 1:52:24 AM
Romney should stop smirking, like Biden should stop smiling.

by AFPRC 10/23/2012 1:52:29 AM
I am waiting for the candidates to discuss Iranian cyber-warfare efforts like Stuxnet.

Obama: Sanctions only work when other countries are involved.

When it comes down to brass tacks, on so many details, Romney seems to align with Obama policy.

You know Election Day is near when Democrats in debates try to talk like Republicans and Republicans in debates try to talk like Democrats.

by Stephen Thompson via twitter 10/23/2012 1:53:01 AM
Based on the comments here, it sounds like we've all already decided!

by dpo 10/23/2012 1:53:04 AM
No, no, no. I've seen that movie. And it's just horrible. RT @NPRmelissablock: Battleship mention: good for Hasbro?

by Kai Ryssdal via twitter 10/23/2012 1:53:10 AM
Obama needs to smile more. Looks too inetnse

by frankloss 10/23/2012 1:53:13 AM
@wOpx: The candidates won't talk about Stuxnet. The U.S. hasn't officially acknowledged it.

by Frank James / NPR 10/23/2012 1:53:32 AM
8-year-old swings by and says he liked last week's debate better. Me too, pal, me too.

by Kai Ryssdal via twitter 10/23/2012 1:53:41 AM
in other words, the debate does not matter, we would vote on who we already made up our minds to vote for. If we haven't decided, that's another issue

by Elias 10/23/2012 1:53:49 AM
Sigh, the world must be watching this and laughing, you call this a debate?

God, really? RT @JeffreyGoldberg: Hard to believe there's another 39 minutes to go.

by Kai Ryssdal via twitter 10/23/2012 1:54:13 AM
@frank thank you!

by joekay 10/23/2012 1:54:16 AM
What about foreign policy regarding china?

by Richard 10/23/2012 1:54:24 AM
Well, it certainly seems that the moderators have made up their minds.

by Dan 10/23/2012 1:54:25 AM
RT @davidgura: Romney says Ahmadinejad is guilty of "direct and public incitement to commit genocide." See Article 3: goo.gl

by Kai Ryssdal via twitter 10/23/2012 1:54:30 AM
I think the president has trey to keep our money at home and not engage in More never ending wars

Romney uncorks the "apology tour" attack. Factcheckers have said no such tour happened.

by PolitiFact via twitter 10/23/2012 1:54:44 AM
53 mins in Romney first mentions "Apology Tour". Favorite of stump.

by Don Gonyea NPR via twitter 10/23/2012 1:54:53 AM
These issues are so complex, how could anyone claim to have the answers? Give him another four years to work on it.

Haven't we already tanked the Iranian economy? I think the sanctions are tight enough for the time being.

Here goes the "liar" game again.

by edo 10/23/2012 1:55:28 AM
I like an intense president. most of this is no joking matter.

by sswj 10/23/2012 1:55:40 AM
Obama factchecks Romney on the "apology tour" as the "biggest whopper." I guess "pants on fire" was taken.

by Frank James / NPR 10/23/2012 1:55:40 AM
@Frank - The "fact-checkers" are partisans. Read Obama's speeches.

by TomKaz 10/23/2012 1:55:48 AM
Thanks, Mark!!

by Dee 10/23/2012 1:55:57 AM
Every fact checker I've checked says Romney is lying about the "apology" tour, yet he just keeps saying it.

by RolloMartins 10/23/2012 1:56:00 AM
Where's the other presidential candidates... oh, yeah that's right...

by Matt Skeels 10/23/2012 1:56:09 AM
Obama is too nasty, can't he make his point without irritating Americans?

by 1steinlover 10/23/2012 1:56:20 AM
Romney says Obama did an “apology tour” of foreign nations after becoming president. Not so. ow.ly
