Default Why is it so hard to ANSWER a question?

After watching the Sarah Palin interview on ABC and watching EVERY SINGLE republican being asked a question that they might look a bit retarded on avoid the question I have started to get pissed. Is it really that hard to answer a question. It is like they are embarrassed to answer it. Just grow a pair and face the facts. You all are wrong on a good 95% of subjects. And I am being nice with that number. I dont want to hear your lies anymore!

It infuriates me too (I'm easily infuriated). Our politicians here - all sides - will be asked a question and then will spend two minutes speaking about something else. Sometimes the interviewer will give them a spray for it but most just ask another question. It shows contempt for the electorate and it's across the board.

What question. It is nice to see fake anger without addressing any real issue. What is the question you want an answer to?

Politicians have their own questions that they are going to answer regardless of whether or not the interviewer asks them.

ONE question that really mad me mad was when McCain was asked his view on abortion and it took him like 10 minutes to just say yes i don't want any abortions not even in the case of rape and incest.

Well explain how it is an innocent child's fault that he/she was conceived via a rape? Why does he/she deserve to die a horrible death being torn limb from limb by a high powered suction device?

So you think that its ok, to take a woman that is already completely emotionally scared and force her to have a child that she has nothing but ill will and anger...yeah thats a mental case and a youth that will end up in the system...or maybe you "fiscal conservatives" dont think thats a burden on your tax dollars. Dont get me wrong, i dont agree with abortion but if you are raped there is no reason that our women should have to endure the never ending turmoil that their life would become.

Yes, he is losin' it as well as the election.
Palin proved to be a minor "bounce" 'n now reveals she is ill informed 'n to make matters worse, she lies like a Republican. People have had 8 years of that, we won't elect another liar.
