About the Presidential Debate . . .

[lavendertook]

Leave it to the US media (liberal media, where?) to consider a rude, lying bully, running rough-shod over the officiating moderator and refusing to wait his fair turn a winning debater. The look Romney gave the President at the end of the debate gave me chills--I could see just the hateful expression he must have used when he assaulted that teen in high school.

When will the US press get over its love affair with abusers?

Just had to get that out of my system. I return you to the usual bully-promoting programming.

Well, it's the mainstream media that's a joke. You can find reputable reporting, but it's outside the mainstream now. I'm not sure there is any liberal mainstream media around anymore. :/

What is the fascination with bullies? People in NJ think Chris Christie is so wonderful because he 'tells it like it is'- i.e., harasses and bullies anyone who dares to contradict him. He's just a typical Republican with a much louder mouth. It's on a par with all those shows where shouting at and over each other is supposed to be somehow admirable and desirable.

The only thing the media cares about is ratings. They aren't particularly interested in the truth and they're clearly not interested in fairness. It's irrelevant to them who gets elected.

So, SO true. :(

omg, I only watched a small part of the debate, but the smirk on Romney's face when he was talking about the middle class was VERY hard to miss. And yes, he's a bully.
