Internationally-syndicated Editorial Cartoonists Ted Rall (from the left) and Scott Stantis (from the right) discuss the pressing issues of the day.First up, there is an asteroid headed for the Earth and will pass the closest to our planet in the history of our species. Happily, the asteroid will miss us but how would humanity react if the next time we weren't so lucky? Ted and Scott reveal their sense of how our species would respond.Next, Ted and Scott handicap the upcoming presidential debate. With a combined 80 years of experience observing and commenting on presidential politics they project  what each candidate needs to accomplish and what the risks are for both.Lastly, with the Ten Commandments law enacted in Louisiana, the question of the separation of church and state is more pressing than ever.
