Nov 22, 2008 - Your name is Gwen Ifill and you have ZERO INTEGRITY.You have a financial stake in the result of the race. In the real world, that's called a Conflict Of Interest.
Caucus83 Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - Conservatives live off fear and negativity. They are cynical and have little since of history. Neocon rein is almost over folks lets get ready to rock out with a renewed sense of Justice and Liberty

Nov 22, 2008 - It's a debate that will be televised. You and everyone who watches can decide how the candidates do. Shouldn't both candidates have been vetted enough that there would be no curve ball questions? This is a pretty big job interview.
CatapultYourMom Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - Yeah, Maria. Whites have run America into the ground. Blacks, of course, have done a cracking job with Africa.
boisterousbob Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - Blacks in this country have no integrity anymore. No pride in anything other then their racism.if Obama is this idiots idea of a Black Leader, we will see an acceleration of the demise of this country.I sick of these whiny black racist!
boisterousbob Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - Yeah no one argues that but based on percentage of population, your a fucking liar. And those white trash women you mention are usually living with black boyfriends...Blacks have lost all pride in themselves... they sit around a blame whitey. Maybe in another 40 years somebody will give a shit.

Nov 22, 2008 - Interesting that Michelle Malkin and the McCain campaign just discovered this October 1 or so. This video was added on Sep 17. Ifill talked about he book in the Washington post on Sep 4. And there were reports as far back as July and August.Either the complaints about Ifill's book and her moderating the VP debates are completely phony, or the McCain people are not very alert. Can they really be asleep at the wheel?

Nov 22, 2008 - This woman has said nothing that is that alarming -- talking about black accomplishments in the recent decades. Please lets not trash this womans reputation over nothing.
mariawhat757 Says:

mariawhat757 Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - Ya know its funny how you all aregetting on her about barack! when she is a registered Republican and been so for a loong time Read the book its about how Black politcians view on Republican and democratic how some come up while others choose to stay behind thats what its about it says nothing about KILL WHITEY! We dont want to Kill anyone! we want to be HEARD!! its a difference than wantingto destroy us verbally and physically shame!
ScottyDog2 Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - MariaWhat affirmative action is not good enough for you that you have to constantly raise the race issue as an excuse for your performance?The book has not even been published yet and you know what it is all about?She is not a Republican, she is a leftist pundit on PBS.You are a moron and a race baiter.
freedomthinker7 Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - Gwen Ifill lied to the debate committee and stands to profit enormously if Barry Obama wins. She also deliberately confused the issue when she said, how do you know it is a pro Obama book. Of course another lie by a left wing elitist, but her comment is irrelevant. Pro and anti Bush books sold well because he is the President.

Nov 22, 2008 - I love how Fox is rolling out with preemptive attacks against the moderator...just in case Palin tanks. They're not even waiting for Palin to screw up, they're just skipping ahead to attacking the media so that by the time she's done sucking so badly they have an excuse ready just in time for the debates. If Palin fails, no need to scramble for an excuse to her poor performance like conservatives have had to do for the past few weeks! Shows how much confidence they have in their girl...
jlgrounds Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - You know she lied because???? Oh yeah - Greta Van Sustren - you should go to amazon and read an exerpt idiot - it's a commentary on several different black politicians. God you people make me tired - do your own research so that it matches your handle for gods sake... OBAMA/BIDEN 08

Nov 22, 2008 - There was no questioning the abilities of Palin. Any moron would question a moderator who has a financial incentive in the opposing side on the debate winning. And at this point, we know she did well, and of course that further disgusts all the liberal women who should see her as a sister, not a villian.
edwardvondoom Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - There's certainly no questioning Palin's abilities. Her SUBSTANCE, on the other hand...Didn't Gwen Ifill adequately moderate the debate? What did you expect, Sean Hannity?
1000buffalos Says:
Nov 22, 2008 - The philosophical equal to Gwen would have been Sean Hannity. Are you asserting he wouldn't have moderated the debate well?As far as Ifill's moderating goes, she could have pressed Joe about that gaffe regarding Hezbollah being thrown out of Lebanon...

Nov 22, 2008 - ZOMG our VP candidate is a moron and every time she opens her mouth the entire world falls out of their chairs laughing. BLAME THE MODERATOR!!!!!
