I'm not being "polar", I''m pointing our the obvious. If the sky is blue, you aren't polar for stating it. Given, Bill O'Reilly is rude, but their news people I don't find rude. And lets be honest, people rail against Fox for its bias, not its rudeness. The diference between CNN and Fox is that Fox is obvious and open about the messages their columnists send, while CNN hides them in selective reporting and manipulation.

As for the bribes from white supremacists, I'm rather surprised it hasn't come up myself. Although I don't see how the speech Rudy's been giving since 9/11 (the same speech, over and over and over) capitalizing off of of the tragedy for campaign funds is any less questionable.

Actually Rudy was asked specifically about this in the debate and he articularted very well all his other, non 9/11 credentials. Just because Rudy discusses 9/11 doesn't make him a one issue candidate, and its also far better than ignoring it like the Democrat candidates do. And comparing 9/11 rhetoric as being no worse than racist rhetoric is a little rediculous IMO.
