I am watching. Bush has had a goober on the side of his mouth for about the last 10-15 minutes so far.
One question: What is the reason for the shortage of the flu vaccine?
Bush said (paraphrased) that the supplier in England was sending contaminated vaccine's over.
Kerry went on a rant about how under Bush millions of people lost their medicade.
Answer the bloody question..
I think Bush is doing fine. But then I thought Bush won the second debate. But then I am biased. B)

Bush is getting killed. He's been caught in three major lies in the first half hour. Kerry is carrying the debate and Bush is looking constipated again. Bush is back peddling like crazy and Kerry is taking questions in stride. He doesn't look flustered. Bush looks like he's reaching for every single answer. [/b][/quote]
It is easy to take questions in stride when they are "floated" to you.
1 question in particular was the assult weapons ban. Under than ban, you could still buy an assult weapon weapon. It just couldn't have a folding stock.
Ok, but I can still buy an AK-47 legally as long as it has a wooden stock, even under that ban.
The federal assault weapons ban (AWB) prohibits the manufacture and sale of specific models of military-style firearms. Despite the ban, many gun manufacturers have evaded the law by making minor modifications to banned weapons. The Bushmaster XM-15 used by the Washington DC-area snipers is one example of an assault weapon that remains legal, even under the ban.

If some one wants an illegal weapon, they are going to get one. They already don't care about laws.
