Here is what pissed me off about tonight's debate, and it was the last question. It was a question that was meant to give an opening for Kerry to pound on the President. Why in hell should Kerry get to respond to a question that asked president Bush to name 3 mistakes he made and then give Kerry 90 seconds to respond to such a question.

Gibson showed his true colors with that selection. I WILL be firing off an email to ABC and complain about that loaded question, and I suggest everyone do the same

I just made that very same point to my hubby. The bias couldn't have been more obvious if it had been stated in 10-foot letters.

Absolutely! I was furious. But Dubya was prepared this time,, not like the time almost the whole press corps beat up on him with the same question over and over.

Yep, that was a very unfair thing to do. It was one of the only questions I thought was not a good one. And to put it right at the end.

I also saw a shot of Kerry and Gibson yukking it up after. Bush handled it very well.

Did you notice, also, that the people surrounding the President and Laura after looked much, much happier than those around Kerry, who was still pontificating??? I don't think I'll ever watch MSM again. NOt that I have been, but this and Danny boy clinched it for me.

I also thought it was very disrespectful of Charlie to keep trying to talk over the President. I was very proud of the Preisdent for not giving in, to insist on having his say. IMO he made a very big point there, as in "don't mess with Texas."

That last question was defintely a Dem plant slam against the President.......and it was designed to give Kerry the opportunity to again claim that Iraq was a mistake!

GWB answered that question very well.

Bush won the debate tonight but the MSM is, as expected, claiming a Kerry win. However, I believe that Bush won because he connected with the people. He had a zest & fighting spirit tonight!

He answered every question and he exposed Kerry's record & the corrupt food for oil program which proved the scanctions were not working.

Bush did better than expected....Kerry worse than expected!

Thanks be to God!

It was disgusting what is the ABC email address we have to register our displeasure in both the Presidential debates the moderator has not done their job probably. We got a semi fair shake IMHO in the VP Debate purely because the moderator was a woman who seemed IMHO to warm to Cheney but even in this debate questions skewed against the Republicans.

WE were yelling at the t.v. when the woman asked that question! they wanted a sound bite for a Kerry ad. These questions were so skewed against G.W. it made me mad...but thankfully he did a very good job against lurch. I was pleased with his performance last night.
