Wow, Michelle Maglalang REALLY has a major tic going about Gwen Ifill.

:rofl:

My first syndicated column of the week, filed this afternoon, shines light on PBS anchor Gwen Ifill, who will moderate Thursday’s only vice presidential debate. Try as she might to deflect questions about her impartiality, her biases — and her conflict of interest — are clear. But don’t you dare breathe a word about any of this. You know what will happen if you do…

RACIST!

Sidenote: TVNewser reports that Ifill has broken her ankle, but she’s still going to do the debate. But will she disclose her conflict of interest? Inquiring minds want to know.

1. Okay, so what's the conflict of interest?
She's a woman and so is Palin, therefore she may give the 'cuda preferential treatment?

2. She's black.
Michelle lives a life of denial, about the fact that she is a minority as well.

4. I guess you missed the subtext of my post...
...which was...there IS no conflict of interest.

She's every bit as female as she is black, so even if sharing an ethnic background with a presidential candidate DID represent a conflict, sharing her gender with a candidate from the other side should offset that phony-baloney conflict.

Ifill's book was made public weeks before McCain agreed on her choice as moderator.

Carry on...

11. IMO there is a conflict of interest
but too late now. John is more than a little challenged in the vetting department, isn't he?

6. It's that old wingnut philosophy in action... wingnuts never lose unless it was "fixed" against them
And of course, the media is in on the fix. So they never have to acknowledge how awful Palin is as a veep nominee. They can keep telling themselves Palin was awesome, but the "fix was in" against her.

9. This woman is starting to make Ann Coulter look sane

10. She's written books about white politicians.
Ergo, she's not to be trusted.
