Democrats Duh-Bate

“Is Reverend Wright as patriotic as you?” “Why can’t you wear a pin with an American flag?”

There is a line in Billy Madison where after Adam Sandler speaks for a while, the principal gives a stark reply that I think should be applied to tonight’s moderators: “Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to (you). I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”

It’s become popular in the blogosphere to ridicule these debates, but with good reason. And this one especially. There was barely any thing on environment, health care, human rights in Darfur, or most issues that are or should of value to most us. I am of the view that it’s time to get rid of the moderators. It’s time for a good old fashioned “Lincoln-Douglass” debate where the candidates go head to head without being spoon fed politics-lite crap that is making everyone in this country dumber. What is, essentially in the way of this happening?
