Rush would be an excellent choice, and at least he is clear about his bias but will let the other side explain their point. There has yet to be a debate involving liberals/democrats where they don't try to dominate the conversation and always be talking over the conservative in the room. The day has come when liberals no longer control the information people are getting, and the public are able to recognize bias when they see it.

I removed the email and domain addresses since they were obviously false and profane. The ethnic connotation never occurred to me. LaQuanna was the name in the first post I had in my list to review. I think I will leave it though just for fun. The juxtaposition of faith and facts is only contradictory if one assumes a worldview of 100% Naturalism. Curiously, this is an article of faith in itself since it cannot be proved by natural means. We loved Hanauma Bay but were unable to visit any of the other islands. Your views and dialogue are always welcome. blessings, b Hi Elliott,

Have a nice day! Also, the juxtaposition of “faith” and “facts” in your title is inherently contradictory. Have a nice day!

I wonder why you did that... I guess you believe your readers would more readily ridicule a message from someone named "Laquanna" than someone with a "white" name like Elliott or Kelly. Racist?

The question is tongue-in-cheek, which I guess you missed and designed to point out the hypocrisy of the MSM. #2 - The current problems and Fannie and Freddie should get your attention when it comes to distorting the truth but you are entitled to your own opinion. #3 - Why are you shouting? If God is a myth then why are you so angry about it? And yes, Gay people have tried to convert me but I have never killed anyone and try hard not to ostracize anyone. And I do think Harry Potter is very interesting but still less so than Jesus Christ. Nice to meet you. Have a blessed day. Hi LaQuanna,

HAVE GAY PEOPLE EVER TRIED TO CONVERT YOU? NO. HAVE YOUR PEOPLE KILLED GAYS AND OSTRACIZED THEM AND TRIED TO CONVERT THEM? HMMM.... OH, BTW GOD IS A MYTH. JUST LIKE HARRY POTTER.

Fail to deliver coherent policy proposals and a consistent message? It's the liberal media's fault! They're always distorting things! It's so unfair! How dare they point out the myriad contradictions that spew forth every time we open our mouths? Get over your victim mentality, please. Thanks. You are not, in fact, under siege by "secular-progressive liberals." You are the ones damaging this country, and you are the ones who use your power to strip the rights away from those who don't share your narrow-minded religious dogma.

You conservative christian republicans are so pathetic. Why are you so scared of competent, secular leaders from a background that doesn't example resemble your own sheltered upbringing? Limbaugh is a hick. Ifill is an intelligent, competent journalist. The questions tonight are going to be fair, and if Palin stumbles she has only herself to blame.

There just is no such thing as unbiased reporting any more. May as well make it fair and open. I don't know that Limbaugh would be my first choice, but someone like Michael Medved would do a great job. If you pay careful attention to his show and have listened for a while, you see right away he is good at moderating two people arguing with each other, is abundantly fair, and manages air time well. I'd also like to see a format where the candidates are separate and can't see or hear what the other is saying. They really need to completely re-do the whole format.
