Oprah=Yes, Ifill=No?
First they were upset because Sarah Palin hasn’t been invited to appear on Oprah Winfrey’s program, even though the latter has openly stated that she supports Barack Obama. Several Republican women’s groups have asked viewers to boycott Oprah’s show.
Now they’re upset because PBS’ Gwen Ifill, who is scheduled to release a book in January which analyzes the new era of black political leaders (obviously including a section on Barack Obama), is moderating tomorrow night’s Vice Presidential debate.
They want Sarah Palin to appear on Oprah. They don’t want Sarah Palin to be questioned by Gwen Ifill.
Hmm!
Let me see, the neocons are trying to discredit both Oprah Winfrey and Gwen Ifill.
What do Oprah and Gwen Ifill have in common?
?????
Still Thinking …….
Still Thinking …….
Ah yes, they’re both members of that evil, elitist, left wing media.
Well, if Sarah Palin is worried about Gwen Ifill being biased she can always ask John McCain to sit in the audience. That way he’ll be able to run up on the stage and answer any questions that he feels are too hard for Sarah to handle. After all, Sarah has been listening to Joe Biden since she was in the second grade and seems to be in awe of his experience.
This is getting to be too ridiculous

Um, there’s a big difference between a DEBATE and a talk-show appearance.

“evil, elitist, left wing media” that’s a new term. I kinda like it and it reminds me of the “evil right wing conspiracy”. Did you coin that term yourself, or is just another one of the Moveon.org talking points?
Whatever the case, your reasoning and critical thinking skills are lacking.
That’s fine if both Oprah and whatever the heck her name is are both Obama supporters. The difference is that Oprah has “reach” and “influence” and it’s only fair that Palin get some love in her show. After all, her viewers want it.
From a strategic perspective, it makes perfect sense, no. Ifill is relatively unknown but it’s only fair that someone objective be the moderator, or at least PRETEND to be objective. What if it was Sean Hannity moderating? What then?
