Odd indeed, I was going to test it but Time Warner won't let me.

Anyways, sounds like they might be lying to you to make you think your internet is better than it really is. That's not the provider is it?

And that's cool Peter, wish I could have been there with you guys, glad he was able to meet up with you and talk about the things you are both in to.

Obviously, that's just your DL speed for the server chosen during speedtesting. Speedtesting is all about choosing the nearest servers and checking out the maximum of your connection.

Romney looked more comfortable out there and Obama did look rusty on debates. Romney was vague on a couple things and Obama took a few jabs. I do think Romney had the better debate and his campaign has not been very strong so this was needed for him to look good in the debate and aggressive.

Before I comment, for the record im a moderate.

I think overall Romney won the debate, but did so purely because he was more aggressive not because he was more substantive. He stepped all over the moderator and Obama whenever he wanted to make a point, thus had more air time and could prove his point for longer. Obama in the mean time was trying to remain more presidential and explanative, did a good job at that and made more sense but simply failed to drive home on some key points that he could have pointed out.

Clear case in point. Obama asks Romney how he will be able to make 5 trillion in tax cuts (which Romney has said he would mutliple times) without sacrificing key government programs.
Romney responds he never said he'd do that and will not do that.
Clearly I guess when you cant answer a question simply lie about it or deny it. Smooth..

Yeah, smooth. So smooth that only a total jerk could try it.

I think it's pretty obvious that the winner of the debate was Big Bird. 8)

^^ I think Dennis Miller's rapidfire-wildly-all-over-the-spectrum-of-human-thought-stream-of-consciousness humor is quite funny. I also like both beards and Bordello of Blood.

As for the debate, I don't have a TV, and don't care that much, really. I'm not apolitical, but I don't think the debates reveal much more than what we all already know. Besides, I long for escape; I am not one of those people who believe paradise is to be found in this world.

The tax issue seems like a trick. If I were running for president, I'd say very clearly that I think the problem with government today is not too much force, or too little, but the improper application thereof. Either they apply too much force where it's not needed, or too little where it desperately is. Ergo, I would abolish most taxes, but use almost the entire amount of the revenue collected to help the poor and the sick, and then use what's left over for reasonable defense. Everything else should be left up to the states. The federal government ought not be the endless moneybag of a continent-sized federation; that is nothing else but institutional bribery on a massive scale, hence our pitiful condition today.
