Heard on the morning news about the fawning, pro-Obama book that VP debate moderator Gwen Ifill is producing.
I then googled "vice president debate moderator", and found exactly two sources confirming this - Michelle Malkin at Hot Air, and an article at W0rld Net Daily. That's it - two admittedly partisan sources. Literally no other news articles in the first two pages of Google hits.
Contrast this with the coverage of the Democratic candidates for refusing to participate in debates covered by Fox News. Plenty of press there...
And yet, the person moderating the only debate between the two vice-presidential candidates has written a book about one of the presidential candidates, a position affording her significant access to one side of the campaign. And this is supposed to be a "fair" debate.
Right.
I wonder how the questions are going to run?
[Ifill] Senator Biden, when Barack Obama wins next month, he's going to give every child in America a pony, and every adult will receive a new Lexus. Just how awesome is Barack Obama? Can you explain in 5 or 10 minutes, or should I give you 20?
[Palin] Excuse me, but -
[Ifill] And that's all the time we have for the evil environment-killing, baby's blood-drinking, Big Oil loving Rethuglican side of the debate.
That is all.
