Over a million dead in Iraq? Collapsing economy? Constitutional Criminal in the White House?

"Senator Obama, why do you think the American flag is so icky?"

My apologies to Tim Russert for thinking he couldn't be topped in the class of terrible moderators.

1. Because Gibson must be racist and anti-Obama

Charles Gibson's obvious dislike of Obama must have been motivated by racism. There is arguably no other reasonable explanation. Gibson has no prior track record of being strongly pro-Clinton. In addition, Gibson was reasonable as a moderator in the Kerry-Bush (two white guys) debates in 2004. Now, in 2008, when Gibson moderates a debate involving the first black Democrat who has a serious chance of becoming president, Gibson goes after Obama for the entire debate. From my viewpoint, Gibson must have some hidden, anti-black feelings that motivated his horrendous treatment of Obama tonight.

5. Wow. I so disagree. I think he was doing his job. Trash Obama, pump

up Clinton. It benefits his bosses to do that, and we know 'big media' has its marching orders. And it's all big now.

7. I don't know enough about him to make that kind of judgement

But regardless of his motives, the questions were, as Obama attempted to point out, not relevant to the very real issues Americans are facing. Why don't we just turn the entire process over to the Midnight Star tabloid if this is the best they can do?

8. Not racist, a rich asshole who has adopted GOP policies to keep his taxes low

Gibson is an example of how money has corrupted even our news.

Now they parrot the GOP party line because they are wealthy themselves, and so see nothing wrong with the fiscal policies of massive deficits and low taxes since they want to keep as much of their own money as they can (and they no longer care that results in a deteriorating country).

Obama threatens his type, as he isnt beholden (like Clinton and McCain) to the top income brackets.

9. I think your response is closer to the actual problem we face

The MSM is the de facto public relations department of the Republican party and big business. Why would they want to piss off the boss?

2. Are they paid by Rupert Murdoch?

3. Totally absurd. What were they thinking? nt

4. Democrats should refuse to attend TV debates

Pundits are Republican, in their majority.
