I don't care if both candidates were given the questions ahead of time

[Hugabear]

In fact, in Obama's response to the question about orphans, he said that he had researched this topic beforehand. This suggests that Warren did provide the candidates with at least a list of topics, if not the questions themselves.

What is important here is that Warren and the McCain campaign are LYING about this. We all know the premium rethugs place on lying and technicalities, after all they impeached a sitting president over this. There are no too ways about this - when Warren said McCain was in a "cone of silence", the implication was that he would not be able to hear the questions and get an unfair advantage. That is a LIE. And now the McCain campaign is saying that he did not have the questions ahead of time, that is also a LIE.

2. The whole 'debate' was just another example of the monopoly of men over...

religious discourse in this country, and the world.

They should have had Franklin Graham, Rev. Wright, Pope Ben, Rowan Williams, and the Dali Lama there to complete the male monopoly.

Who gives a shit?

4. I would think that the advantage would be hearing your opponents answers!

5. Don't forget on Larry King, Warren said he did the "coin toss" months ago

when the men were not around. Saturday he also made it sound as if the coin toss happened backstage.
Then there is the matter of the phone calls to each candidate personally. We will never know what was said to each Candidtate but I personally suspect he made a point to give McCone more information than he gave Obama.

Oh and the 40 million Abortion since Roe V Wade, referring to that as a holocust with McCain "nice touch"

What they fail to point out is Abortion were happening long before they were legal, and Pro-lifers are delusional if they think Abortion will stop just because they want to make it illegal.
Obama's appoarch of lessen Abortions is much more realistic, than simple trying to make them illegal.

6. It is the purpose driven lies of Rick Warren

The purpose was to trap Obama and they were deceitful in that agenda.

But since they are self proclaimed "sinners" they will forgive themselves and continue to do as they have always done. LIE, CHEAT and DECEIVE.
