Let the following serve as a lesson to organizers of the current snoozers that somehow pass for presidential debates:
First, take a controversial learning institution. Say, Regents University in Virginia, founded by evangelical politician and broadcaster Pat Robertson.
First, take a controversial learning institution. Say, Regents University in Virginia, founded by evangelical politician and broadcaster Pat Robertson.
Pick two pairs of debaters. Put former U.S. senator Max Cleland and retired Army general Barry McCaffery on one side. Set up ex-White House guru Karl Rove and former Florida governor Jeb Bush opposite them.
Toss in a question: “Should America bring democracy to the world?”
Then let the feathers fly, leaving the preservation of civilization to a single moderator, PBS journalist Charlie Rose.
This will happen on Oct. 26. Witnesses will be charged $40. Splatter sheets will be provided to occupants of the first three rows.

So far as we know, this will be the first time Rove and Cleland have met. Many supporters of Cleland believe that Rove — during Cleland’s unsuccessful re-election campaign — was behind the TV ad that paired the triple-amputeed, Vietnam veteran with an image of Osama bin Laden.
Rove was asked about it as he exited the White House last month. “We’ve got better things to do than write television ads in Senate campaigns in Georgia,” President Bush’s brain said.

This discussion is fruitless as Putin is now large and in charge.
The World sees what the Bush Administration calls Democracy and it's the same of Saddam. Rove just needs the money right now for his lawyers he'll say anything for a buck. Rove might say he's related to Harold Ford Jr. It's so funny now the US has all the answers are we lie, torture and steal. We order countries to do things by threatening to bomb their countries. Talk about Democracy.
