当地时间10月8日晚，美国总统布什和民主党总统候选人克里进行了第二次面对面的激烈辩论。布什对伊拉克战争进行了辩护，攻击克里立场不一，克里则指责布什善用欺骗技俩。外电报道如下：President Bush and John Kerry sprinted¹ back to the campaign trail, trying to build on their performances in an argumentative second debate that saw the presidential candidates colliding over war, jobs, education, health care, abortion², the environment and prescription³ drugs. Argumentative的意思是“爱争论的、好争吵的；论证的”，常含贬义。例如：He is an intelligent but argumentative child.（他是一个聪明但爱争论的孩子。）
