Pro-Lifers 2 Questions -- Pro-Choice 0 Questions....

[Junkdrawer]

Yep. Representative audience alright, :eyes:

And did you see the adoration in the young blond woman's eyes when Bush said "No Federal Money for Abortions" :puke:

[quinnox]

1. yea

Bush is her god, it must have been quite a moment for her.

[Supersedeas]

2. TIMING is everything--wrapping it up by rallying the base (coincidence?)

[Geek_Girl]

3. Good Point

The Audience was picked by gallup more proof of Gallups biased bull shit.

[KittyWampus]

4. I Thought The Questions Were Very Good. And The Two Freepers

well... Kerry dealt with them.

The questions were substantive and wide ranging.

Put Ifill to shame.

[Junkdrawer]

7. I posted earlier that it wasn't as bad as I feared, but....

never the less, there was definitely some bias.

[Rose Siding]

5. That's a good point

Kerry was able to affirm the complexity of the issue in a polarized society. Bush, the simpleton, says "can't run, can't hide"

[theHandpuppet]

6. I see I'm not the only one...

... who noticed that the questions were slanted towards the anti-choice crowd.

[fob]

8. Gibson got to choose the order of the questions and it's clear

that was the only way he could find to give bushsh* an advantage. He kept all the cultural issues to the end for when bush*s meds evened out.

[Junkdrawer]

10. Yep. But on an unlevel playing field, Kerry still won...

Even Faux acknowledges that "Kerry is a good debater. Debates don't play to Bush's strength".

And what would be Bush's strength, then? Is "thinking" just not one of them?

[Carolinian]

13. Bush's strength is to repeat talking points over and over and over.

Maybe he can get a job with FOX after the election.

[Kat45]

9. And the moderator chose to put that question at the end of the debate.

That pissed me off. It would cause it to stick in people's minds more and give the issue more play than it should.

[Carolinian]

11. I swear she was a plant.

[Junkdrawer]

14. We know it's one of two things...

1.) A large number of Pro-Lifers were admitted and Gibson had to let two speak.

--- OR ----

2.) Gibson wanted to give Bush his "one easy question" for the night and had two Pro Lifers confront Kerry.

[Carolinian]

12. Bush's "maternity group homes" - Women be very afraid!!!!
