Last Friday, Media Matters issued a new report, Debate Moderators overlook Key Questions, about the content of the 1500 questions asked in the 17 presidential debates so far this year. There was not a single question about FISA. Not a single question about renditions. The words "habeas corpus" have not once been spoken by a debate moderator. Not one question about telecom liability. No moderator has asked a single question of a single candidate about whether the president should be able to order the indefinite detention of an American citizen, without charging the prisoner with any crime. There was exactly one question about wiretapping.
