So many liberals, so ****ed off about the one and only decent question asked
during the entire conference. You have, I'm sure, noted that very few of the
articles about Gannon actually quote the question he asked. That's because they
are too ashamed to do so.

Well, Jim (with a comma after your name), here is the question:

Thank you. Senate Democratic leaders have painted a very bleak picture of the
U.S. economy. [Senate Minority Leader] Harry Reid [D-NV] was talking about soup
lines. And [Senator] Hillary Clinton [D-NY] was talking about the economy being
on the verge of collapse. Yet in the same breath they say that Social Security
is rock solid and there's no crisis there. How are you going to work -- you've
said you are going to reach out to these people -- how are you going to work
with people who seem to have divorced themselves from reality?

Good one, no?

Now in my (not so) humble opinion this is a statement of opinion, rather
than a question (and partisan opinion at that)!

A well stated, honest opinion, followed by a question. Also, about the only
non-stupid question asked.
