I've been thinking about the upcoming town hall debate

with President Obama and Robme.

Even if the questions are pre screened, we need to find someone who is going to attend and is allowed to ask a question. When the person stands up, s/he can hold the card as if they are going to ask the question on the card. Then, no matter what is written on the card the person says this:

I have a two part question for Governor Romney:

Were you granted amnesty by the IRS in 2009 for not paying your taxes on your offshore accounts?

Will you release the last 10 years of tax returns within the next 3 business days? If not, why not?

If we could just get someone from our side into the auditorium it just might work.

They much prefer serious policy questions like:

Is it true you were born in Kenya? or

Why won't you admit that you are a Muslim?

(and addressed to both candidates)

Would you be willing to swear on your holiest books, on the life of your children, and in a court of law, that you received no tax amnesty?

Or, one Jim Lehrer could have asked: Why did you lie that the President cut $700 billion from medicare, when these are cost savings that are in the Ryan plan you endorse?
