		<description>If you both (Republic and Shane) had the slightest bit of intelligence, you both would be pleased to hear the question, because it gave Sen. Obama a chance to show that he is looking to the best and most innovative minds in order to solve our problems, without regard to what the person did 40 years ago.

But the two of you are both too stupid to look at the real issues and instead you play right into Hannity. Hannity should put both of you on his payroll, since you are doing EXACTLY what he wants you to do.

Look at the original post here. Was it “BILL AYERS AND EDUCATION”? No, it was &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.batteryfast.com/sony/pcg-gr270.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;sony pcg-gr270 battery&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.batteryfast.com/toshiba/pa2457ur.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;toshiba pa2457ur battery&lt;/a&gt; about Hannity. You are playing his game and you are too stupid to even know it.</description>

		<description>Oh, how I despise that little turd Sean Hannity... I really don&#039;t have anything constructive to say, I just take every opportunity to bash this silly little twit and his ilk whenever and wherever I can. If Hannity were at least a little bit macho he wouldn&#039;t be quite so sickening. I wonder if he realizes just how fem he comes off? He is SUCH a whiny little b*tch.</description>

		<description>Geo. Steptnoplis, should ask his very good friend. Hannity about his buddy and soul mate, Hal Turner; and and is he as patriotic as hannity is? Does Hannity and Hal Turner have the same views on race.? Did Hannity ever visit Hal turner at his house in N.J.?  Stephtenopolis is A disgrace to his profession.</description>

		<description>This is a guy that doesn&#039;t serve in the military but decries wearing the flag pin for proof of patriotism.

 He attacks out of falsehoods of his political opposition.

 Demeans others while demanding respect.  

 Relishes in earning money for disrupting democracy.

 Finds it personally uplifting have such media influence with the childish mind that refuses to become a responsible reasonable adult.</description>

I kind of find them ... well full of s--t. Beyond that by the time I get home to watch this stuff it&#039;s old news and therefore irrelevant. Oh and now on to my point ... just look at that picture of hannity .. now if there ever  was anyone who looked like a real dick this is it.</description>

This is less than important.  People want to hear about policy changes that will be coming when the Whitehouse has been vacated of the rot that infests it today.

		<description>ABC News just lost a lot of its glimmer in my eyes. What a waste of time! And, asking that question from Hannity? How could George be so stupid? I have no problem if it was a relavent question, but that? I&#039;ve watched &quot;World News&quot; for years and I&#039;m terribly disappointed in what I saw the other night. Our news media takes another jolt to the stomach. We are rapidly becoming a 24-hour joke. What we dwell on is moronic. This is what we decide to give to the voting public?
These are the issues we spend our 22 minutes a night on during the national news or 45 minutes in a debate? This is what Obama was talking about. If you don&#039;t ask about the real issues that worry small town (or any town) America, then the only things they have to base their votes on are whether or not a candidate is for or against guns, abortion, same sex marriage, etc. What else do they have? Debates aren&#039;t giving them any substance! Shame on every one of these debates. ABC, CNN, FOX. They have been worthless. A pox on all their houses! Bring back the League of Women Voters. They knew how to produce a debate.</description>

		<description>To find any good in these types of questions, one would have to assume that they are ONLY questions.  They are not.  They are suggestive STATEMENTS and therein lies the bias, disinformation, and unfairness.

For example, I could ask Mr. McCain:  &quot;Sir, do you regret your traitorous behavior in denouncing your country while a prisoner of the Viet Cong?&quot;  Mr. McCain could provide a coherent, even debunking, response to the question.  However, the underlying notion that &quot;McCain is a traitor&quot; is a horse already out of the barn.</description>

They prefer to deal with these non-issues because they have nothing else.  When McCain goes up against Obama, it will be a landslide, despite that the RNC will throw mudballs, dredge the gutters for innuendoes,and emply the swiftboaters.  They simply cannot play the game without playing dirty -- it&#039;s their strategy.</description>

&lt;i&gt;It is a matter of shifting the debate.

The question has been asked.

You can continue to whine about it, or you can toss it back in Hannity’s curiously perfect hair and talk about education and what Obama is going to do for education as opposed to what McCain is going to do about education.

Okay, I see your point, and it is a valid one.  And one of Obama&#039;s skills is his ability to turn &quot;gotcha&quot; questions into opportunity.  But I don&#039;t think the braindead soundbite media will cooperate.  Obama can talk pedagogy all he wants, but all that&#039;ll get filtered to most audiences is the fact that he once borrowed a cup of sugar from a neighbor who bombed something.</description>
