This time they're attacking veteran journalist Gwen Ifill, who has built a career off of trust and objectivity, and is moderating Thursday's Vice Presidential debate. She's written a book called Breakthough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama. Now, anchor Greta Van Susteren seems determined to prove that Ifill has written a pro-Obama book, and thus her journalistic objectivity is jeopardized, causing a conflict of interests.
Hello!?! McFly?!?!
First, the book isn't even out yet and Ifill herself said the book is about black politicians rising up after the Civil Rights generation. The theme is not an endorsement of Obama, and has little to do with his campaign. So after you see the video below, you'll either deduce that Van Susteren (as well as Klansman Michael Savage) is a freakin' idiot, or she's just jealous that her wooden ass will NEVER get a shot at moderating so much as an eighth-grade class president's debate.

Gretta Van Busstern !! She is a freakin idiot since she got her facial done. Maybe, you should spend less time on your knees for the FOX and maybe you can see the light again. Since the OJ case she has been less of a great lawyer and instead she comes off as a huge racial pig!! Maybe if you got a big black dong in your life you will see why all women love black men and why us white men fear them!
OOH by the way her book is about blacks rise in the political arena and not Obama!!

Ms. Ifill is highly respected journalist and those conservative commentators could not be more wrong and unhinged. I thought Ms. Ifill was perfect moderator who was incredibly fair. In fact, she let Palin off on several issues when she could have pressed for clarifictations.

I wonder what people's reaction would be if Ann Coulter were the moderator?
As far as the book goes, it sounds as though when it is published, it will be Even Handed and show all of the positives as well as the negatives of the cantidates.
Somebody, Somewhere must NOT be AFRIAD to point out the as much as they detest John McCain, there is some good worth mentioning. Coversely speaking, Senator Obama is Not without fault, he's human:He REALLY is!
You would never hear about it though. You just cannot go through life with Blinders on.

Fox news is the most racist news organization on television and should be taken off the airways and Greta is she a transexual or what?

It is sad and indicative of this country's racial agenda that someone would impunge the intergriety of a well reknown jouralist such as Gwen Ifill without sufficient proof or any evidence. She was not writing a book endorsing or promoting Sen. Obama. It is my understanding that the book was about all post-civil rights African-American politicians. Is the Fox News channel implying that George Steponopolic (?) should not have moderated the debate between Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama because he once worked in the Clinton White House? Somehow, whites, even the moderate ones, blow everything out of context and out of proportion when they believe that African Americans are in a position to "pull a fast one"! Shame, shame, shame on not only the Fox news channel but America! The race issue is going to destroy this country because we will not or cannot move beyond it!

To the undecided Americans: this presidential race is not that difficult. It is not a difficult choice to make. Listen, Bush was voted in 2000 and again in 2004 due to the GOP’s swift boating and fear tactics about home security. Now, almost 8 years later look at the state of the country. It’s criminal what Bush has done and I think he should be thrown under the jail for it. Bush is a C- and look at what that idiot has done. Now, you have McCain, who is a D- looking to continue Bush’s policy. People, the math isn’t hard here. If a C- minus is leaving this country in shambles, what the h-e-l-l do you think D- is going to do to improve things? The D- can’t change anything. He’s too dumb and hot-headed. You don’t have to be a rocket science to know that the best choice for this country is Senator Obama who is an A+. Senator Obama who will lift us out of this ditch that the C- put us in, and that the D- minus wants to continue digging us into.
Let’s make the right choice this time. Let’s make an intelligent choice.
OBAMA\BIDEN ’08.

What is with Fox News. I have just turned off whatever that garbage was about Barack Obama having something to hide? How can this station get away with these kinds of smear tactics. Do they really think that the American people will change their minds about Barack on the basis of this mindless tripe?
#8 above has the right idea. I cannot watch this mess, it is beneath me! Phewey!!!
