For those of you passionate about the future of the European Union, Google has hosted a live debate on the upcoming Lisbon Treaty.
Prionsias de Rossa, MEP (campaigning on the "Yes" side) goes head-to-head in a debate with Joe Higgins MEP (campaigning for the "No" side). Renowned radio show host and journalist Karen Coleman (Newstalk 106, ex-BBC) chairs the debate.
The bias of the compare is disgracefull, she never once questioned the yes guy like she did the no guy.

The vote for right-wing former social democratic parties went down. The vote for genuine left-wing parties, such as the Socialist Party in Ireland and Die Linke in Germany, was significantly up, you fucking idiot.

1:00:05 Joe - "I didn't actually use the term mass destruction, you used it"
Prionsias - "U can look at the tape Joe and you'll find that you used it first." Well I looked back at the tape, and Prionsias was the one and only person who said it.
So Prionsias,
well what can I say,
you're a bit of a bullyish prick.
this is the way you try to win a debate? focusing on somethink small and arguing off the point.schoolground tactics, heightened by the sight of Joe sulking afterwards
