Fox News Morans Think Lincoln Debated Emancipated Slave





So a couple days ago on Fox and Friends they were talking about Hillary Clinton challenging Barack Obama to a "Lincoln-Douglas debate." They referred, of course, to the grueling series of seven three-hour debates held in 1858 between Illinois senatorial candidates Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas, who was a shrimpy pro-slavery jackass. But those silly graphical artists at Fox thought the Douglas in question was Frederick Douglass, the former slave and abolitionist who basically agreed with Lincoln even if Lincoln had to hedge a bit to get elected! The point is, Hillary Clinton wants 21 more hours of debates which is why she must be stopped.

But I think it's a mistake. First, having a moderator-free debate will help Obama, as it's less likely Hillary would bring up garbage like the Bill Ayers connection. And he could really challenge her on the stupid gas tax proposal.

So I'm guessing you're sipping the Obama Kool Aid with ____.


Actually I think he thrives on the crap questions.
That way he gets to harrumph that "The American people want to know who's going to end the war educate the children bring back the good jobs and give them health care."

And therefore sidestepping the details on any of them.

I hate these (all of them) stupid debates anyway.
Might as well just spin a wheel with "Stump speeck a b c d e f etc" on it.
