(CNN) - Half of the first presidential debate between President Barack Obama and Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney will be focused on the economy, the debate's moderator announced Wednesday.
The first three of the October 3 debate's six segments will focus on the economy, moderator Jim Lehrer said in a statement provided by the Commission on Presidential Debates.
The other three segments will focus on health care, the role of government, and governing, according to the release.
Each segment is to be a 15 minute portion of the 90 minute program.

There should be three debates. Each four hours...commercial free. No studio audience. No media involvement (except for the actual broadcasting). No stupid "Twitter Ticker" at the bottom of the screen for morons to post moronic things. All questions derived by the moderators and not available to the media until asked of the candidates.
Debate #1: Moderated by corporation and business owners.
Debate #2: Moderated by a ten-panel team of random citizens via lottery.
Debate #3: Moderated by a four-person committee. Two Occutards. Two Tea Partiers.

Have you forgotten that Mittens said the same thing?
Mitt Romney Says Big Business ‘Doing Fine’ After Criticizing Obama for Similar Remarks - ABC News
It was doing poorly before he thought it was doing fine....or maybe his etch a sketch was off that day.

The amount of people on food stamps has increased by 3 million since last year.
So tell me, why don't we hear Obama campaigning on his record?
What does that have to do with the post? Nice dodge dude.

My understanding is that ever since Perot the donkeys and elephants took over the debate commission which means they control the format and who is in the debates. If they control the format and who is in the debates the best you can hope for is a good one liner because the topics will be incredibly narrow. You won't hear any conversation about removing sanctions on Iran, explaining why earned income is taxed higher than capital income, Why the TPP a good idea, Why nobody went jail for the financial meltdown when over 1000 went to jail for savings and loan scandal, why is it good for the FED to buy billions of assets from the banks, what will be the impact if the us dollar is replaced as the petro dollar, explain why executions of American citizens without trial is the right thing to do, explain why indefinite detention of American citizens without trial is a good thing, explain why warrant-less wiretaps is a good idea, what other civil liberties should we throw away in the name of “safety”, explain why partnering with "terrorist" as we are in Syria and did in Libya is a good idea, why should we fund foreign armies etc... Watch debates if you want but here what it's going to be...
Romney: "He's a commie who wants to take your money." "I love America more"
Obama: "He's a silver spoon elitist that doesn't care about anyone but corporations." "I love America More"
Meanwhile they both will give everything to corporations, keep starting wars, continue spending billions on the drug war and do nothing about Bernanke digitizing billions for the banks. Hooray! I can't wait!
The right wingers here keep harping on this increase in disability recipients. Let's get this clear, is it your contention these people aren't disabled and, if so, what makes your opinion more valid than the medical professionals who examined them and declared them so? I'm betting the flood of returning servicemen from the Iraq debacle has more to do with it than any other factor.
Μολὼν λαβέ;1060936001 said:Then please post a link showing what you believe is fact. Iraq? I think you mean Afghanistan.
Well, since even the official figures(which many think are greatly understated) list twice as many injured service personnel in Iraq as Afghanistan, the odds are 2-1 that any resulting disability claims resulted from the Iraqi Adventure. The only proof I need is that each person who makes a disability claim has to go through a process that usually takes about two years. They not only have to show medical records from their own physicians but have to be examined by doctors chosen by SS who are rarely overly sympathetic. Unless you can prove that this process has suddenly altered to allow people without any proof of disability to qualify then your assumption that Obama is responsible is pure wishful thinking. I guess when it becomes increasingly clear that Willard's ship is sinking the rats aboard will clutch at any straw they can.
