[BodyProSite]

how come the public finds it ok that when the bull shit left wing media conduct interviews that they never ask any real questions , they pussy foot around the issues and beat around the bush?? and then they just simply will not allow fox reports on the property when there are good chances at random questions that the liars havent had time to practice there answers

Can't upset the apple cart, remember the Presidential and VP debates, every question that was asked was given a rambling, incoherent answer that had absolutely nothing to do with the question asked. Yet you had the dumbass shaking their head and drooling like a Pavlovian response to the dinner bell.

There's no difference between the parties without abortion & gay marriage.

There aren't many realquestions to ask.

Oh yes there are.  Its just thatt he moderators are far to lenient in letting these windbags get away with rambling garbage.

Ignore the labels, LOL!

Republicans grew the govt. post 911 and started this whole bailout nonsense. Obama could have never gotten the votes or public support to piss away that much money without Bush setting an ugly precedent.

They're all whores determined to redistribute wealth. The only real argument between them is who should get our money.

Barring gay marriage and abortion there's no substantial difference between the parties in their current forms.

bush started a stimulous package that was nothing compared to obamas, but still under bush people were getting back 600 and 1200 dollars ,  what did obama give only a handful of people? 7 dollars over the course of 4 pay checks ?  i dont quite think those should even be compared

I think often times they are asked, but when the politicians side step, they often don't hold their toes to the fire.

Moderating a debate isn't the easiest.  The moderators don't have time to just keeping pushing for a real answer and a seasoned politician will often just keep side stepping no matter how many times they're pressed.

People would rather deflect or label things than answer questions. Take healthcare as an example: Ask "where is the money going to come from?" or "How can people who can't coordinate one vaccine distribution or clunkers for cash handle nationalizing healthcare?" will only result in rhetoric. It's a lot easier to say whoever asked the question "hates children and poor people" than admit "I don't have a clue".

Hard questions don't get asked because we wouldn't like the answers. It's a lot easier to argue back and forth over labels.

Even when "real" questions are asked Politicians are very skilled at spinning or drawing out their answers.   It has nothing to do with who is asking them or what they are asking.
