The Meet the Press debate is full of tough questions

Many very pointed questions, throwing candidate's own words in their face and such.

Unfortunately it is not much more enlightening than usual.

It is a little fun to see Santorum asked, "When you voted for the medicare perscription plan were you advancing socialism?" but since he's not going to give a straight answer to any question it's ultimately unsatisfying.

Bonus: The whole panel claiming that they stand up for gay rights because they all accept the definitional humanity of GLBT persons. "Hey, I said you are a person... just not a person deserving of the same rights as most persons. What the fuck do you want?"

This mess will be replayed on MSNBC at 1:30 PM EST (or is it 1:00?)
