So, Obama won that debate, says the media.
I have observed that his "victory" had nothing to do with what he did or did not say,
nor was it anything Romney did or did not say. That's unfortunate.
It did, however, have a lot to do with what the moderator said AND what she did not say.
She did not review the rules of debate for the television audience - this might have
held both candidates a little more responsible for following them. She also did say
before the debate that she would break the rules herself. At that point she ceased to be
effective as moderator. And, btw, she broke the rules on the FIRST question.
Why was she still allowed in?
There is an overtone here that is not being exposed:
no respect for authority
She didn't show it, and as a result neither candidate showed it.
But this debate is not where that began. There has been a serious decline
in respect for authority since the beginning of time. If we are to prosper as a people,
then we must return. We must teach our children. We must set the example.
We must hold one another accountable and agree to be held accountable.
So President Obama argues and complains better than Governor Mitt Romney.
Does anybody feel better?
Why do people think that Joe Biden won last week's VP debate?
Because he took the focus off of the actual debate. He drew attention to himself.
He looked like a fool. (Proverbs 29:9). The Hebrew word is eviyl, it translates
"silly."
Do we want the President of the US Congress to be silly?
I don't even want my children to be silly!
I also don't want my President's best characteristic to be arguing.
