The ABC "Debate"

Ouch!Just a quick word about this — I only watched the first five minutes or so, so it wouldn't be fair for me to condemn the entire proceedings — I'm glad to see the Huffington Post and elsewhere filled with vitriolic criticism of ABC for practicing fake journalism. From the few minutes I watched I knew it would be a waste of time. Loaded questions. Trivia. Sensationalism. Grandstanding by Clinton (assuming Obama gets the nod and Clinton offers to campaign for him his response should be "please don't trouble yourself until I call back"). Almost torture to watch. ABC: you should be ashamed! Peter Jennings would never have countenanced such a travesty...

I keep thinking that Obama should have simply said that this election is too important to waste voter's time on such trivia and that he would refuse to answer questions unrelated to serious issues and call on Hillary to do the same. That would have shut the two morons up. Why should the Democratic candidates be forced to respond to inane Republican talking points for an hour? What purpose does that serve? Why would ABC do such a thing? Hmmmm.

That damned liberal media.
