		<description>Let&#039;s face it, these questions have been asked on blogs all over. The debates aren&#039;t supposed to be a liberal love fest. Republicans and Independents are watching as well and forming their opinions about candidates who could very well be the next POTUS. Obama was given a chance to answer these questions and personally, I think he failed miserably. Judging from the WHINING coming from the Obamanation, they think he failed miserably as well. I wonder how many realize they have been hoodwinked. 

Fit fit: Surely you can&#039;t compare this to the NYT article on McCain and lets not even bring up Dan Rather. These are legit questions that were asked of Obama. Some may find them &quot;trivial&quot; but I feel they go to character of a man we really no little else about.</description>

		<description>&gt;&gt;The only one I see as trivial is about the lapel flag.&gt;&gt;

Not so trivial.  However the reason it isn&#039;t trivial isn&#039;t his patriotism, as is frequently stated.  His statement was that he objected to wearing the lapel pin as a substitute for patriotism so as a statement of his objection, he removed it.  Now, we could disagree with his point about patriotism, but that&#039;s what he said.  He objected, and he responded by doing something.  He also sat in a church listening to the &quot;hate Whitey&quot; sermons of Rev.Wright, and he socialized (even if not &quot;regularly&quot;) and sat on boards with Ayers ... and did what?  nothing.  Exactly nothing.  Why not?  either he wimped out, or he didn&#039;t object.  Neither response is particularly desireable in a president.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not whining about anything.  I am trying to encourage you to have a more meaningful discussion.  Was the purpose of your blog entry for discussion or to start an echo chamber?

I for one had no problem with the debate questions.  The only one I see as trivial is about the  lapel flag.  I agree there is an overreaction to the debate.  However, I disagree that this is something unique to Obama or his supporters.  I see it all the time on both sides.</description>

		<description>Mike, 

There is very little in the way of &lt;em&gt;facts&lt;/em&gt; in the post.  I see opinions. 

This is a fact:

&lt;blockquote&gt;nearly 60 million people dead in World War II&lt;/blockquote&gt;

This is an opinion:

&lt;blockquote&gt;the Obamatons were all whining like spoiled brats today&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It is my &lt;em&gt;opinion&lt;/em&gt; that you are unaware of the difference.</description>

		<description>Fit: Where did I say or imply that I &quot;alone can see the truth?&quot;

I understand your evident and transparent desire to hide from the facts of the post here. But it doesn&#039;t change the facts.

Hard for you to face up to it, but Obama is toast!

		<description>Mike, 

You will likely have a frustrating life if you simplify your worldview into assuming those who see things differently are stupid and you alone can see the truth.</description>

		<description>Fit Fit: I do think cult followers like the Obamatons are STUPID! Too stupid to think for themselves and see past the empty rhetoric and lies.

You&#039;re attempt to get me off point here and play another of those lame equivalence cards won&#039;t work. The issue here isn&#039;t so much how dumb the whiny Obamatons are, but how Obama attempts to claim that any inspection of his character is a &quot;distraction.&quot;</description>

		<description>Whenever McCain gets criticized (if they ever get around to it) it won&#039;t be called a distraction but &quot;Drive-by Liberal media&quot; bias.  There  will be just as much whining that will come from the right.  

Calling people stupid does not further a intelligent discussion.  I have no problem with anyone slinging insults, I just think you should try to elevate it to more of a level that W.F. Buckley Jr. would approve of.

&quot;I won&#039;t insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said&quot;.</description>

		<description>Fit Fit: Look beyond the Obamaton&#039;s whining for a moment. The pattern here is clear. Everytime Obama is criticized he claims it is a &quot;distraction&quot; (looks how many times he has used that word in this context) from the issues.

Tom Redhunter nailed it. The Obamatons think that just because they are so blind to the nature of this man that the rest of us should accept the lies as well.

But not all of us are as stupid as the Obamatons.</description>

		<description>Ha! This as how all politicians (and their supporters) react to media criticism.  It&#039;s not being a &quot;crybaby&quot;, it&#039;s gaming the refs.  McCain (justifiably) did them same thing with the New York Times.</description>
