    Your critiiciam of Rick Santorum was fair , but where was the criticism of Barak Obama back in 2008 where he referred to his Grandmother as a "Typical White Person" , or the fact that he sat through 20 years of Rev Wright's racist rants . It seems to me that everytime a Republican has a gaffe it becomes big news. When Obama does it it's glossed over and not brought up again. I consider myself a moderate who leans right , and it's pretty clear that the Media has chosen sides and has lost all objectivity . Santorum is a good man , and I'm sure the Liberal Press will do everything they can do to de-rail him.

    John,

    You and Anderson should be ashamed of yourselves. Are you members of the political shoot-m-down team? I can't agree with most of what Santorum says, but agree with him this time. I listened three times and never heard the word 'black' I heard "b'lite of ..." Why don't you two get back to what your suppose to be doing (reporting news) and leave the Paparazzi crap to Pierce.

    A daily viewer, Edward
