There were no questions on Environment? No questions on corporate maleficence?
The first question in the domestic policy debate was about foreign policy.
Any the questions about faith? Any legitimate Supreme Court would have struck down those questions based on the fact that any answer provided violates the establishment clause. Those questions were sheer pandering to religious zealots who want to establish a theocracy, and not politically relevant.
And gays? Why not ask about blacks and Jews too? Should they be allowed to marry? Are they "born" that way? That question was pure pandering to bigotry, and not politically relevant.
Notice that Bush did not answer the Roe v Wade question. He just dodged it. I hope that cost him votes among his rabid religious base.
And the guns question. Again Bush blew the handling of his own wedge issue. Which does not mean it, or any of these other irrelevant questions had any place being asked in a formal presidential debate.
