Is Bob Schieffer a moron or does he only play one on TV?

Never mind who won or not, everyone has an opinion, and I'm comfortable with the fact that no opinions were changed by the debate, I know mine wasn't!

However, what was with Schieffer's first question to Kerry:

"...And that is, will our children and grandchildren ever live in a world as safe and secure as the world in which we grew up? "

I don't know how old this fucking idiot is, but I'm 53 and when I grew up we had "DUCK AND COVER" drills monthly in school and when I was 11 I thought that at any fucking moment we were going into "thermonuclear" war with Russia over missile in Cuba!

What a fucking moron!

I generally don't agree with your stuff but I gotta admit you've got a nice point there.  But, I wouldn't attribute the stupid question to a stupid moderator as much as a public with a really short memory and attention span.  Shit, most people, me included (sorry, i'm only 40), didn't even pick up on your point.

Bob Schieffer comes from Texas, and he’s a long-time personal friend of George Bush. Indeed, Schieffer used to play golf with Bush. He used to go to ball games with Bush. The two men even went to spring training together, according to Howard Kurtz’s profile. And Schieffer’s brother, Tom Schieffer, is a long-time, close business associate of Bush. Indeed, after Bush found his way to to the White House, Tom Schieffer slept in the Lincoln Bedroom! Today he serves as U.S. ambassador to Australia. Family friend Bush sent him there.

... which makes me an even older fart since I'm 60.

Hopefully, 9/11 will be an anomoly in the way the world conducts it's business (at least in the US).

Harry.

Wow, I think you are pretty dense after all- I think that was his point!  That MAD was a more secure environment than today's free-for-all. At least the actors(participants, not thespians) were all assumed to be sane.
