Folks, I think the time has come: Sarah Palin MUST challenge President Obama to a televised debate on Health Care reform, especially as it pertains to the bill before Congress. Now, I know for a FACT that Obama would NEVER accept the challenge, but it is a challenge Ms. Palin has to make. A refusal by the President exposes him for the intellectual fraud that he is. Accepting the debate challenge would expose him even further, because the bill is indefenseable. Former Gov. Palin: I urge you to make the challenge to the President, the only condition being that the debate would be held SANS TELEPROMPTERS. You can take the lead in this debate! Fellow Freepers, I implore you to forward this post or similar posts to ALL your friends, neighbors, local talk show hosts asking the former Alaskan Governor to CHALLENGE the President to a debate....
She’s doing it the smarter way, by getting her statements out coherently on her own terms. To challenge Obama to an actual, in-the-flesh debate would be taken as impertinent grandstanding.
bttt
“Shes doing it the smarter way, by getting her statements out coherently on her own terms.”
Coherent flame thrower is what’s needed...she got off a good eye-opener with the “death squad” pronouncement that the Kenyan Mutt had to defend against...she has to keep the pressure on...and keep him off guard and defensive...he needs to be pushed hard, so he goes into petty tyrant mode like the petulant little girl he really is...
Just like the people who submit court requests for zero to produce a valid birth cerficate, Palin would be considered as “having no standing”. Now if she was still a governor, perhaps so.
She already has- just by a Facebook posting.
‘bama doesnt debate- he preaches. Scripted. His handlers would NEVER let him do a real debate. He can’t even risk taking real questions from 11 yr olds.
God I hope not, she would get destroyed.
GO SARAH BUMP! She has already won the death panel debate.
Yep. No need to challenge via debate. Obama is losing the debate without saying a word. Never give a sinking politician the chance to grab a buoy. Let them drown on their own.
That would be dumb.
Al Gore had a “debate” with Ross Perot on Larry King about NAFTA and “won” the debate back in 1994.
At no time should Palin make this about “Obama v. Palin 2012 Smackdown”. That would be stupid. The MSM would immediately crown Obama the winner, no matter how well she did.
Palin should keep doing what she’s doing. She should make a major, Reaganesque, speech on the subject, but on the whole, she’s doing rather well. She’s inside his OODA loop. She needs to stay there.
Best,
Chris
No, she wouldn’t.
Do you honestly believe little “o” can string together coherent sentences without his teleprompter?
You are correct she has no standing — we have the same standing. He didn’t want to debate McCain during the campaign and got it so that he was favored with the moderators — Sarah wanting a debate would make her look stupid. No matter who the person is in the WH, you don’t ask for a debate when you are not their opponent.
When’s the last time a sitting President has consistently acted so un-Presidential?
The point of the challenge is to keep “o” on defense.
If he screwed up and accepted, she would mop the floor with him.
Sarah got her statement out.
O chose to dissemble when he replied
That she spoke the truth is why O felt the need to respond.
I cannot stand ZERO but he is the President and she is a citizen. McCain had a hard enough time getting him to debate and now you want Sarah to make a fool of herself for asking for a debate from the President.
I would have had a fit if ZERO wanted to debate Pres Bush when he was in office — it would have been out of place.
