And Americans Wonder Why Other Nations Hate Us?
Just look at the hypocracy that this country displays to the world.

Let's take a look at some hypocrisy, shall we?
The Obama campaign are the ultimate hypocrites.
They have been demonizing Hillary all along, and Hillary has not demonized Obama.
Latest example of Obama playing political games and "silly season," politics. Obama playing the old games of Washington:
"That was the rollout of the Republican campaign in November," he said at a town hall meeting in Raleigh, N.C.
"They will try to focus on these issues that don't have anything to do with how you're paying your bills at the end of the month."
At the town hall meeting, Obama said that New York Sen. Hillary Clinton "looked in her element, taking every opportunity to get a dig in there." Calling her campaign "a textbook Washington game," Obama said, "That's her right, to kind of twist the knife in a little bit."
His campaign is the one playing much more of a game.
Demonizing Hillary, characterizing her like she is a vicious gang member is just another example of how Barack's campaign employs an insidious, hypocritical double standard against Hillary.
Clearly saying: "That's her right, to kind of twist the knife in a little bit," has nothing to do with policy issues, and "how you're going to pay the bills at the end of the month."
Here is Obama playing his own version of political "games" and "silly season," far worse than any way Hillary has ever characterized him. Hillary has only focused on issues of experience, policy knowledge, potential weaknesses against Republicans, but not vicious character attacks.
And the Obama campaign has focused most all of their time and energy not on policy issues, but on tearing Hillary down.
They are constantly and relentlessly "framing" her in negativity and blame - no matter what she does.

Why, thank you. I just got my law degree with honors from Harvard, thanks to you, and in real life I have a mere BA from the university of California. Thanks for the upgrade, lardass.

@deepertruth
Quit your whining. If HRC can't take the heat, she has no business running for the office.
Her bellicosity vis-a-vis Iran in the debate, and her absurd further-to-the-right-than-W notion of a NATO-like security umbrella over a variety of Middle Eastern nations - not to mention her support of Kyl-Lieberman - shows conclusively that she's both a foreign policy hack and chickenhawk.
She's becoming far more scary than McCain - who, by the way, will rake her over the coals. Perhaps then she'll shed a few tears, insinuate sexism, and boo-hoo her way to an even higher negative rating.
Come to your senses.

Fizzle??? More like Sizzle!!!
It is funny how you write that everyone ganged up on poor Senator Obama. I didn't hear your cries when the media was ganging up on Senator Clinton??? I guess you missed those 8 months. The reasons the questions on Rev. Wright (who by the way is moving into a 10,000 square foot mansion on a golf course in a predominantly white neighborhood) keep coming up, is because Senator Obama still has not explained why he belonged to a separatist afro centric radical church for 19 years if this is contrary to his beliefs. As for the "Bitter" comment, if Senator Clinton said that about the African American population in PA, Rev. Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson and an army would be on the steps of the PA capital calling for her head on a platter... Let's get real folks. The republicans are going to drag Senator Obama through the mill. We will lose in November if he is our nominee!!!

Wrong, Walter, Obama Lost It
Obama won by not losing? You wish!
To me he came across as a fumbling, dissembling, arrogant jerk who was terribly offended at being asked questions about his associations. And he still hasn't given decent answers. And now the Obamabots are in a huff (as in huffingtonpost.com) over the fact that he was even asked such questions. Gosh, isn't St. Barack above having to deal with such things?
Bush has taught us one thing: the character of a president is of utmost importance. He got into office as a kind and gentle compassionate conservative. He's nothing of the kind, as we well know. Why is it not legitimate to ask how Obama reconciles his inspirational rhetoric with his continuing association with Rev. Wright and Wm. Ayers? He has tried to have it both ways and gets petulant when people challenge him on that. I'm not confident that such a person can be a good, or even an acceptable, president.
As Hillary said, "You get to choose your pastor."
Question for Obamaniacs: would you have remained a member of that church?

ABC Boycott
The debate did a disservice to both of the candidates and the viewers. In order to help assure future debates focus on issues of importance (to most of us) we need to send a strong message. May is a sweeps month for television ratings, ratings that determine what advertisers pay to air ads. Boycott ABC News AND entertainment for the entire month. If enough of us do it and ratings drop the debates in the general election may be more focused on what matters to most in the electorate. Please spread the word.

Hey Mickey...
A question for our resident Inquisitor: Should every Catholic politician leave the Church or resign their position? Wouldn't you say that the sexual abuse of young children and the subsequent cover-up is FAR more egregious than a few fiery sermons? Nah, of course not...better to get all riled up about the "angry" black guy right?
(moron)
(as an aside: is anybody else getting sick and fucking tired of all these Republican trolls who pretend to be Clinton supporters clogging up this site? It's really starting to grate)

Focus on the issues!
Amen!
Instead of focusing on the issues that the average American is interested in, moderators George Stephanopoulos and Charlie Gibson focused on the "gotchas," verbal gaffes and divisive trivia that only the average bigot, zealot and ideologue is interested in.
I hope and pray that--if and when Messrs. Gibson and Stephanopoulos get another chance--they will help the national poltical dialogue, not muddle it up.
