Debate Postmortem

Wednesday's debate solidified an opinion I've had for a while that the so-called liberal media is going to try its damnedest to shove a McCain presidency down our throats. The "Democrats Debate" was, to paraphrase Shakespeare, a program moderated by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

"Let me turn to the economy. That is the number one issue on Americans' minds right now." That line came from George Stephanopoulus...over an hour into the debate, long after "bitter" and flag pins and Reverend Wright and Bosnia sniper fire and the Weather Underground and so many other things that don't matter a hill of beans when you consider two on-going wars, 47 million Americans without health insurance, rising food prices, rising gas prices, or the vice president and the top officials in the cabinet sitting around the White House discussing whether the president could order someone's eyes gouged out.

Barack Obama offered his own debate postmortem at a town hall meeting in Raleigh, North Carolina on Thursday...

FEATURED QUOTE

"It is the logic of our times
No subject for immortal verse
That we who lived by honest dreams
Defend the bad against the worse."


-- Cecil Day-Lewis from Where Are The War Poets?
