I think It is fine to skip the Fox broadcast....Why give Fox the chance, if even for one night, as protraying themselves as a credible news source.
Yes it would be terrible if people had to see Senator Obama operate in an environment with the potential of having adversarial questions posed. That isn't something anyone should be interested in regarding a potential top office seeker. Must all reporters at news conferences be pre-screened for asking only questions he is prepared to answer? Will he only allow those who only think and believe as he does to serve in his Cabinet?
Maybe if he gets elected he'll follow through with the desires of those here wanting to eliminate the sound of any conflicting viewpoint. I imagine most of the politicians would prefer a constituent where "good intentions" met reelection criteria instead of pointing to the failure of results. Without a source to point out the failures our country could be bankrupted by "good intent".
Cowards and hypocrites expose themselves more by what they won't do versus what they do. The poles have very limited populations on both sides because by their very nature they are inhospitable. Who, living closer to the equator on either side, wants silence and aversion from anyone wanting to lead them after these last eight years?
If Nickelodeon, BET, LOGO, or the KKK channel if one existed, wanted to ask questions to ascertain your position on issues what is to be feared? Have our candidates become so enamored with the technology of the internet in that, as some do here, they suffer "pain" at a written word of disagreement, carrying it forward to the spoken word?
