Democrats in DeLay's dist challenge Republicans to debate on Iraq War


The Bay Area New Democrats, an active club in Tom DeLay's district, has challenged the local Republican club to a debate on the Iraq War. The debate has been organized by the Clear Lake High School Debate team with invitations sent to the Presidents of the local political clubs. The President of BAND (me) has already accepted the invitation, but the counter part of the local Clear Lake Republican's Club has declined.

In a letter to the President of the Republican Club the members of BAND state "As President of Bay Area New Democrats, I have already accepted the invitation from the debate club and I am ready to debate at their convenience. As President of the Clear Lake Republican Club and of the party that initiated the war in Iraq, you should also be willing to accept the invitation and eager to defend the actions of your party and this Administration."

We are awaiting his response.

1. They're scared of your freedom John
Maybe if you told them they could bring written notes and you would just debate them with your knowledge off the top of your head. You have to give them a handicap, since the can't defend their position.
