Debate Commission Blues

Who the heck picked the commission on debates?  Who put them in charge?

Why not let each side choose an equal number of moderators?  Imagine Rush Limbaugh and Ann  Coulter paired with Ed Schultz and Rachel Maddow. Put all four candidates on stage for at least 12 hours with all four moderators questioning them. Now that would be a debate worth watching!

It is time to stop bowing to the left-wing media machine. If Romney and Ryan can't stand up to these idiots, how can they lead America?

If you go to the commission website here's what you'll find:

Co-Chairmen

Frank J. Fahrenkopf, Jr.
Michael D. McCurry

Honorary Co-Chairmen

Gerald R. Ford†
Jimmy Carter
Ronald Reagan†
William J. Clinton

Co-Chairman Emeritus

Paul G. Kirk, Jr.

Board of Directors

Howard Buffett
John C. Danforth
John Griffen
Antonia Hernandez
Reverend John I. Jenkins
Newton N. Minow
Richard D. Parsons
Dorothy Ridings
Alan K. Simpson

Executive Director

Janet H. Brown

Deceased

Only ex-presidents not named Bush can be on the list.  I remember Newton Minow calling TV "a vast wasteland" 50 years ago. Allen Simpson is the left's favorite token faux conservativeI haven't heard of any of the others, but surely somebody has.
