These people just don't get it. Their attitude really gets people mad. Mad enough to make sure they vote against Kerry.
Blame the Republicans for agreeing to this slug as a moderator.
How about some new faces? Enough with sad sack Jim Lehrer already!
"Bob Schieffer is scheduled to be the moderator for the October 13th debate between President Bush and John Kerry."
A couple of ways to play this:
1) Bush to demand a different moderator, or
2) Bush to let it all hang out at the debate, like..."well, Bob, I know you are for Kerry, against me, but I'll still answer your question. But first let me restate your question in a fair and nuetral manner. That way listeners can have a fair debate."
And he doesn't think CBS/Dan Rather did anything wrong. A fool.
Never watch the communist/clinton news net. larry king is one of its worst propagandists, lobbing softballs to lefties -- from what's on conservative radio sound clips and written in the new media.
bob schieffer was interviewed by Sean Hannity on radio last week. Another mutual-admiration, softball interview. schieffer said he'd play the debate right down the middle; no bias for either side. What d'ya expect from a professional propagandist paid by cbs? A cbs prerequisite is to speak as a forked-tongue LIAR and be a licentious libertine.
Unbelievable.
Nobody from that scandal-plagued disgrace known as CBS News should be allowed to moderate a debate for dog-catcher, let alone a Presidential debate. I cannot understand why the Bush team doesn't twist the dagger on those scumbags, finish them off once and for all, and demand a "non-partisan" moderator.
The Moderators are not yet finalised. It would be strategically stupid to have Bob Schieffer as a moderator when CBS are still running hit pieces like the Draft on Bush even after the fake memos. Schieffer would just give softball questions to Kerry, just like in the first debate.
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.
This is without a doubt the most frighteningly biased election coverage I have ever witnessed. I am almost speechless sometimes. To this day, nobody in the mainstream media has made any effort to critically analyze Kerry's senate record. None whatsoever. The AP sues to get Bush's records, but isn't interested in Kerry's (which he won't release). CBS talks to an ex ANG officer critical of Bush, but has no interest in the Swiftboat vets. It's absolutely amazing. I doubt that many of Kerry's own supprters have any idea just how leftwing this guy actually is!
Tonight I heard Howard Dean on Letterman claim that Bush created the North Korean nuclear threat, when in fact NK already had nuclear weapons before Bush even took office. It was Clinton's stupid policy that created the NK threat, but nobody is interested in that answer. Letterman didn't challenge him on it.
The 'rats are trashing the economy even though the unemployment rate is very low, and the economy according to Alan Greenspan is in very good shape. Under Clinton, the MSM could not get enough of Greenspan's comments. Now, any good news (and there's a LOT) goes virtually unnoticed. Instead, any bad news (however slight) is usually reported on the front page with a reference to it being a "problem" for Bush. The enormous amount of good news is just reported in the business section and rarely makes it to the front page.
I'm just incredibly saddened by what we're seeing. This president, a really good man who cares deeply for this country, is being vilified by the media and Hollywood for no good reason other than their own self interest. If Kerry gets elected, I will hate him from the minute he takes office, until the day he leaves. Kerry's treachery, and that of his party and their useful idiots in the media, is putting the US on a course frought with disaster. But hey, as long as they can get their liberal judges in that's all that matters to these people. It's sick.
Layruh and now Sheather...what was James Baker smoking?

Another media lib to give some facetime to
I can handle it
I saw just a little of it b4 I turned it off. I heard most of what you heard, what's next, the Pope endorses sKerry?
Will some one please explain to me why the "elite" media talking heads feel the need to refer to their audience as terrorists??
They were the ones that pushed FORGED DOCUMENTS on the public
Pat Buchanan has said that a journalist cannot be unbiased. I agree with that. But they can and should do their best to not show their bias (Brinkly was the best at this).
For a journalist to give an interview to Larry King, or O'Reilly or whoever is just as good as throwing their credentials in the mud.
BTW, the items in question are high-grade aluminum rods, not fuel rods.
I read the transcript. I found the part where he said the NYT piece was well-written and researched and I didn't have a problem with him giving that opinion.
I didn't find the part where you said "Bob Schieffer said that he was pleased that John Kerry is up in the polls."
I may have missed it. I want to believe you, but you'll have to find it and show me.
