ok i was watching AndersonCooper360 and i think it's terrible how they give free reign to Anderson Cooper simply because he's rich and powerful
sometimes rich and powerful and awfully gossipy people can be a major pain in your a**
the low blow at Gov. Sarah Palin is so lame- he was making fun of her religious practices
dude- she's not a devil worshiper and she's running for VP- not the presidency,
and her speech during the RNC proves that she is more than capable of handling a VP's responsibilities
i think just because Anderson Cooper might vote Obama/ Biden because he's gay doesn't mean that AndersonCooper360 should lean the same way...
or that CNN should lean the same way, for that matter...
ugh... |

So reporting on a story that makes your candidate look bad is now "making fun of her?"

1. She attended a church that prescribes speaking in tongues as a way of getting closer to God.
2. She has a history of using religious rhetoric in campaign promises.
3. She gave a sermon about how she prays that people will follow "the will of God" in agreeing with her on her policies.
4. The chief responsibility of the Vice President of the United States is to be ready to step in as President of the United States at a moment's notice in case of an emergency.

How does reading a speech written by somebody else off a teleprompter qualify someone for the responsibilities of VP (which is being ready for the responsibilities of President)?

Obviously you've forgotten about the Rev. Wright coverage. Or, more likely, you're a troll. |

A speech that was, as admitted by the McCain campaign, mostly drafted before she was even selected as VP. Pawlenty would have given 70% the same speech, just changed the home details.
If these two are elected, I'm going to wake up every morning after January feeling like Lehman's stockholders do this week, wondering whether McCain made it through the night. |

i'm really disturbed by the curve-balls thrown at Gov. Palin on AndersonCooper360
Anderson Cooper is probably voting Obama/ Biden because he's pro- gay rights |
while I don't condone media bias, being hard on candidates and engaging questioning on delicate subjects is a must.
If being hard on a poor lil' candidate hurts their ego it shows they aren't anywhere close to facing the music when they'll be confronted to world class affairs.
And this is not an elephant or donkey issue. They should all be bombarded and answer the questions.
Look at the Palin fiasco. The republican party has denied press access to her and in return they are coating her under this blanket protection system to which she isn't being held accountable to allegations of previous mishandling. Somehow the supporters don't seem to mind it ... probably because they live in ignorance, love the story and only want to be fed what they want to hear.... this is making me so pissed off. |

was Sen. Obama directing the comment to Gov. Palin or is it a misunderstanding? |
