Democrats Won’t Debate If Writers Strike
Wednesday, November 21st, 2007Democrats, in a move to shelter themselves from angering the biggest donors to their campaigns, are refusing to debate if the CBS News Writers go on strike:
NEW YORK (AP) – A potential strike by CBS news writers imperils the last debate among Democratic presidential contenders before voting is to begin.
In a statement Wednesday, Hillary Rodham Clinton said she would not cross a picket line to participate in the debate, scheduled Dec. 10 in Los Angeles. Most of the other candidates quickly followed.
CBS is to broadcast the debate, which is co-sponsored by the Democratic National Committee.
Point 1: It’s a debate; what do they need writers for? Oh yeah, that’s right: its a Democrat debate. They need writers to create favorable questions for the planted Democrat operatives, posing as undecided voters, to ask Hillary. Silly question; never mind.
Point 2: Can you believe that the Democrats think that bowing down to the labor unions is more important than debating important political issues for the enlightenment of the voting public? In a word: YES.
