The Democrats finally had a ‘debate’ last night. Sort of.
The three lesser lights would’ve made Elmer Fudd appear dazzling by comparison. I’ve been more excited by hat racks.
Anderson
Cooper, a Clinton Foundation member,
moderated/hosted the debate. No problem there. What conflict of interest? He
and CNN made it clear before the debate that, unlike what transpired during the
Republican debates, they would not be pitting the candidates against each other
nor attempt to trip them up by asking them tricky questions such as the names
of various world leaders. Also, candidates past statements about each other
would not be brought up in an attempt to cause discomfort and rancor.
This
was in stark contrast to the Republican debates on Fox News Channel that illustrated
real differences amongst the candidates, most of whom were animated, engaged,
passionate and real. Personality and policy differences were often clear and
compelling. Megyn Kelly famously went after Donald Trump. And after him. And after him. Unlike CNN and,
worse yet, MSNBC, Fox News really is ‘fair and balanced.’ (It is no wonder
polls reveal the network to be America’s most trusted news source).
Hillary,
as per usual, blithely dismissed her scandals. However, this most wooden of
people/candidates actually appeared somewhat animated and almost human at
times. The curmudgeonly old socialist helped her out by ranting about how sick
he was of hearing about the ‘damn’ e-mails, occasioning the front runner to
thank him and shake his hand. Yes, Bernie wanted to talk about “the issues.”
What he
really was saying was,” the hell with honesty and character, the hell with fair
play and transparency. And the hell with national security! Let’s talk about
things that matter!”
To
Democrats, the only ‘issues’ are how much freedom and money they can take away
from working people, how many illegal new voters they can import and how easy
it is to exterminate babies.
Ironically,
while the Republicans in congress preemptively surrender to their Democratic
counterparts, the Republican presidential candidates squabble amongst
themselves in a vain attempt to give the people choices.
The Democrats never jeopardize- nor waiver
on- the issues that matter to them.
The fix
is in.
There
is no debate.
