ABC under criticism for crappy debate

ABC News Coming Under Criticism for Focus of Obama, Clinton Debate
ABC News is coming under intense criticism for its handling of Wednesday's Democratic debate in Pennsylvania. During the first forty-five minutes of the debate, the moderators focused on Senator Barack Obama's comments that some voters in Pennsylvania were bitter, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright controversy, Senator Hillary Clinton's Bosnia "sniper fire" story, flag pins and the Weather Underground, before later turning to the issues. We play highlights of the debate.

Oh my god. Is she behind on her rent or something? Give the woman a day off. If I don't have to hear that mucus squelch down her throat, I wouldn't care if I had to watch FOX for a day.

[IWantDemocracyNow]

Dude, she probably is barely making rent. Independant media in america means a life time of not making much money. THose who get ahead do it by being tirelessly dedicated.

They are not scandal ridden. Its a scandal that its considered debate worthy. Bush getting our people killed is a scandal. The national deficit is a scandal. Torturing is a scandal. Need I go on?

[DaddyCaldwell]

It all boils down to the same thing:

These people aren't ready for a intelligent black man to take office and fix this obviously fucked up nation, thanks to your George W Bush.

I'm so glad I'm old enough to vote this time maybe me and the other soon to be 18 year olds can fix what you "wise ones" fucked up

p.s. THANKS FOR THE RECESSION!!

DaddyCaldwell:

And yet we DID elect him! Yes We Can became Yes We DID!

Now if the Repubs and RW Democrats (DINOs) would just get out of the way and let him fix things...

[CrocodileAvoider]

Thank you so much Reverend Wright for telling it like it is. Obama's just another lying politician, and I'm glad your insanity is helping to take him out of the race!

"Barak Obama a candidate so perfect he's retarded"

This message was approved by Peter Griffin.

Typical bitter white people clinging to there guns and bibles.

I guess I hit a nerve with your latest rant. You are just an uneducated moron, a piece of shit, a mindless puppet in the hands of the far right. You take Fox Noise as Gospel and thinks that Hannity is a thinker. You are a fucking asshole and I'm sure your anger comes from having a tinny pecker. I'd tell you to go fuck yourself but with you 1 mm dick the only thing you can fuck is a bug.

[82pendragon]

I BET THIS IDIOT 'loismarill' NEVER WORE A FLAG PIN BEFORE ALL THIS NONSENSE.

IF HE WERE NOT BLACK, IF IS FATHER WASN'T FROM KENYA AND IF HIS MIDDLE NAME WERE NOT HUSSEIN NOBODY WOULD CARE ABOUT A PIECE OF 'PATRIOTIC' JEWELERY ON HIS SUIT.

GROW UP RACIST!!

[loismarill]

TO MASTER SPINNER OBAMA: ( RE: Last debate)

There were not ANY MANUFACTURED issues Senator!

THESE VIDEOS SHOW YOU ARE A BIG LIER!!

SEARCH: Obama Stops Wearing American Flag Pin

SEARCH; Obama is NOT telling the truth !

SEARCH: Obama No flag pin for him

YOUR OWN WORDS! YOUR OWN VOICE !

YOU ARE UNELECTABLE IN NOVEMBER

You use your lawyer skills to give a favorable twist

to ALL your faux pases !!

[logansGT]

Lol @ lifter - Your home page tells us everything we need to know about you.

Now we know why you're an imbecile. You prefer your politicians to be like your pro "wrestlers," phoney posers puttin' on a show.

Go away and come back when you're grown up and learn how to think, shithead.

NObama in '08

I guess you are one of those far right loons who want to bomb the Muslim world. You are a disgrace and a fucking piece of shit. Israel has to stop being the agressor, they've been bombarding the shit out of Palestine for decades. Check anti-war hero George Galloway! He is a man! unlike you, who is only a mindless puppet controlled by the far right. Pathetic piece of shit.
