What, Me Debate?

Last Thursday night, April 17, Democrat Presidential candidate Barack Hussein Obama (www.townhall.com/michaelbarone/ 08/04/19) debated with his opponent, Mrs. Bill Clinton, preparatory to the important Pennsylvania primary this coming Tuesday. One of the two moderators was George Stephanoupolos, press secretary in Democrat President Bill Clinton's administration - hardly an antagonistic participant. But Stephanoupolos had the nerve to go beyond Obama's general campaign talking points, raising issues of substance important to an informed vote.

Stephanoupolos probably intended to give Obama the opportunity to add substance to his rhetoric. But Pastor Wright's protege' - the popular Chicago pol who announced his
Senate bid only two years ago from the home of his friend, Weather Underground terrorist William Ayers - is widely considered to have made a fool of himself. Without going into detail, this Harvard Law graduate held a press conference next day and announced that he would not engage in further debates, because the questions were "unfair."

A leading contender for President of the United States now refuses to discuss his position on matters of vital public policy! "Trust me!" smirks Obama. So here's another question for the man who disdains to wear an American flag pin: Why should we? Are half of all Americans really that stupid? What will
it take for Democrats to wake up and smell the snake oil?
