Apparently, LaRouche supporters interrupted the Democrat debate tonight. I watched about three minutes of the debate, and the pander factor was so high at the historically black college that I could not take anymore (really- when Dean announced his favorite song was by Wyclef Jean and Lieberman vowed to keep fighting for ‘Dr. King’s message,’ I knew it was over the top). At any rate, some Democrats see a consipiracy with the demonstrators:
Members of the Morgan State community worried the hecklers’ exposure on national television would reflect poorly on the university.
“I think they gave Morgan a bad name, even though it wasn’t us being disruptive,” said junior Danielle Cotten, 20.
Deanna V. Ikhinmwin, the university’s director of community services, said the hecklers made her uncomfortable.
“You feel paranoid, with homeland security and terrorists – anything out of place, you get nervous,” she said. “Before the terrorists, you could laugh at this.”
Morgan State, a historically black university, was the site of the debate co-sponsored by the Congressional Black Caucus and the Fox News Channel.
“This is a historic occasion – the first time that the CBC has hosted a debate at an HBCU,” candidate Al Sharpton said after one interruption. “Will you respect our time the way we respected yours?”
“Do they do that to Republicans?” asked former Illinois Sen. Carol Moseley Braun.
No, Carol- they don’t do that to Republicans. Normally the people interrupting Republicans are DEMOCRATS AND GREENS, with their assorted riff-raff ANSWER friends and other members of the Trotskyite left.
At any rate, from what I saw, the only thing that would make any of those candidates on stage look electable is a favorable comparison to LaRouche supporters, so all of them should be grateful those clowns showed up.
