Another important story about Gwin:
PBS’s Gwen Ifill: No Moderate Moderator

[1curiousmind]

Sarah Palin 1 minute ago on Hannity

“we’re underdogs”

“her comments are motivating”

“makes us work that much harder to connect wih the electorate”

[kbennkc]

Gwen has her work cut out for her if she thinks she can stop bin Biden from showing his donkey .

[From The Deer Stand]

Hannity questioned the huge media stink that would be raised if he were the debate moderator. Wow, that would be ugly!

[markedmannerf]

Brit Hume: "She has written a book “The Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama ” is the title. The book’s release date is on Inauguration Day…this gives her an unmistakable financial stake in the outcome of the election. After all, a book about “The Age of Obama” is going to be worth a lot more if he becomes President, than if he doesn’t."

My bet is on Palin..

[SECURE AMERICA]

Friday’s Washington Post carried an ad from PBS touting their two TV debate moderators: “Objective. Impartial. Independent. The NewsHour’s Jim Lehrer and Washington Week’s Gwen Ifill bring PBS’s tradition of integrity to the most important conversations in America – so you can make up your own mind.”

Okaty its PBS EVERYONE knows they lean to the left, sometimes so far they fall over themselves...

Ifill should do the right thing and recuse herself. That said she should have done it when her name was first mentioned. She is a shameless, unabashed Obama supporter with no business - NO BUSINESS - faking a role as a remotely objective party.

But to question her is racist, right?

[El Cid]

For example, she pressed Cheney to attack Democratic nominee John Edwards personally: "President Bush has derided John Kerry for putting a trial lawyer on the ticket. You yourself have said that lawsuits are partly to blame for higher medical costs. Are you willing to say that John Edwards, sitting here, has been part of the problem?"

Now I grant your premise that Miss (Mrs?) Ifill should be declared ineligible to 'moderate' a debate -- given her clear-cut support for one side of the debate. However, the question she posed to Cheney, above, seems pretty fair to me. Because frankly, John Edwards, 'sitting here', was a big part of the 'problem'. I suppose Mr. Cheney was too polite to say so, but I rather liked the fact that Miss/Mrs Ifill invited Mr. Cheney to whack the erstwhile ambulance chaser upside the head...

Jim Lehrer (PBS, D): "Ifill is the best, most impartial, moderator EVER."

[Dream Warrior]

He/she who phrases the question wins the debate.

McCain has had trouble with the base of the party, he is my Senator and even I have not voted for him isince he first ran as a congressman. I only sent $ to the campaign after he selected Sarah Palin.

I have testified many times as an expert wittness, and if I had any…ANY conflicts of interest it was my duty and responsibility to recuse myself. THAT IS PROFESSIONALISM… to stay on, as Ifill will do, shows a total disregard for professionalism.

McCain is just being the fool I’ve seen for 20 plus years in Arizona.

Pray that Gov. Palin can pull McCain’s cheastnuts out of the fire.

But to question her is racist, right?

Exactly. Howie Kurtz was on CNN playing the race card today regarding this story.

[Mr. K]

Here is something I would like to know...

DID OBAMA KNOW she was writing a book about him? Did she do interviews?

[freekitty]

Public BS. How and why do they get to moderate?

[Dream Warrior]

Ifill question;

Senator Biden, what is you favorite color and as a followup, why is it your favorite color?

Ifill question:

Gov. Palin, what is the wing velocity of a South African Hummingbird?

Poorly.

Sorry, could not remember the entire script. Give me a break, I'm old.

Defund PBS and do it now!
