I am claiming your claim that he is the least biased person I could find is clearly ridiculous and wrong.
I am also claiming he is in fact very biased and it calls into question and undermines the integrity and fairness of debates that have already had severe bias issues.

The fact that they chose a Biden intern to moderate a debate between Biden and the Republican president is absurd.


Ah I see, you're just unfamiliar with his content. If you can show me where he demonstrates significant bias (bias that would disqualify him) in his body of work, feel free to link me.

Incorrect assumption.

His known ties and bias toward Biden are troublesome and exist even if he is perceived as a fair and patient host in his other work for C-SPAN

I could agree with that. Even IF he demonstrated professionalism throughout his career, there will always be a perceived bias due to his work experience. Frankly, it's why I thought Kavanaugh would be difficult to confirm (White House counsel during Bush). It's a little unfair because you will be judged with more scrutiny.

Right.
Even the most respected judges have to recuse themselves sometimes.

If a hyper-partisan Trump supporter that lived in his beach house was the moderator I would fully expect there to be people on the left(or auth-center democrats) questioning it too.

No amount of 'hes fair though' would suffice.
Particularly when they want to start cutting mics and the previous debate was a biased dumpsterfire.

If Chris Wallace had a mild bias for biden, the next guy is going to be a dumpster fire.

Solid idea.
Multiple sides getting to ask the candidates tough questions is an interesting balance.
But i imagine they would still interrupt and cause chaos.

However, the neutral should be someone who wants all presidents jailed for war crimes

interrupting is part of conversation, Anyone who has ever been in a situation where quick problem-solving has to happen knows this. debates are an unnatural method of communication. that said the debate was a shitshow which needed some legit moderation. one guy interrupting another guy who wasn’t answering any questions :zzz:

lol @ the neutral part, good luck there

The best summary of the substance of last night's debate is probably this article:

:rofl:

Biden also asserted that the Green New Deal would pay for itself while insisting that he doesn’t support it and that he has his own “Biden Plan.” This mess is further complicated by his own website — where the third paragraph of the “The Biden Plan for a Clean Energy Revolution and Environmental Justice” begins, “Biden believes the Green New Deal is a crucial framework for meeting the climate challenges we face.”


what kind of dumb dumbs find this confusing?

1. political speak 101, elude to things, dont commit to those things.

2. the green new deal is a good framework for ANY competent plan. a framework isn't a blueprint, it ranges from inspiration to a semi viable plan to follow. in this case on nearly all lines of the green new deal they're all worth improving. air travel reduction, coal emission reduction, electric cars and buses, etc. all good goals, the green new deal was just highly unrealistic on timeline, avoided prices, and was vague on who would make it happen or even if the govt could try.


this is trumps entire strategy, and its as LOW iq as u can get. create boogey men, "socialism", "antifa", "Green new deal", "marxist", "BLM", etc. He's trying to make this election a witchhunt all driven by fear, against Milktoast Joe. its gross to watch, and will likely work.

but its like if Obama made Romney out to be the most racist right winged evil POTUS candidate ever. absurd.

No one said this is confusing. Like you said, anyone with more than two brain cells sees what Biden was doing there, how he was equivocating to avoid committing to tangible policies which would piss off one part of his base or the other. This is the criticism.
