Look in the GPB election archive, scroll down in the menu to APCD-1st Congressional District Debate, and press play.A very few snippets are below. You've already seen some other impressions. Now you can watch for yourself.
Bill criticises Jack for not doing anything for the soldiers in his district, and compares Jack to Colonel Sanders: good for the fast food industry; not so good for the chickens.
Jack keeps shifting ground on Iraq and Afghanistan, sounding more like Barack and Bill all the time.
Bill: "This was a war of choice." "We can leave honorably in eighteen months." "Listen: this is a sinkhole." "The Iraqis can start taking care of themselves, and we can start focusing on our own internal problems."
Reporter to Jack: "Wouldn't it be a benefit to connect south Georgia to Atlanta and other cities?"
Jack: "You know there could be a time." "...the critical mass is not there."
Bill: "The time to fix the roof is when the sun is shining." But Bush didn't do that. Ties Kingston to DeLay. "We need to make public transportation a part of our public stimulus package."
Reporter to Bill: How do you propose to pay for the things you want to do?
Bill: "It's time we look at investing in skills for the 21st century."
Reporter asks Jack about earmark reform, given his many earmark requests.
Jack: Why yes! It's all the Democrats' fault that we don't have earmark reform. Jack: #1 have to have strong military! Decisions by generals in Baghdad! "vigilant military" etc. Worked for Tybee beach erosion. (Yet Mr. Zero on the Environment wants offshore drilling.)
30 second closing statements
Bill: Not set up for 21st century. Champion of middle class and working people. Change.
Jack: "He wants to kill No Child Left Behind!" Thump thump!
I'm pretty sure he said something else, but the blatancy of "kill" "child" was over the top even for Jack.
Jack must be scared!
