John McCain has promised to bring up Barack Obama’s relationship with 1960’s activist/terrorist William Ayers in their debate this week.
I guess that’s good, but on the off chance that Obama has a glib reply prepared, McCain may want to find something else to ask his opponent. Some things I would like to see discussed:
- How will Obama cut taxes for 95% of Americans when 33% don’t pay income tax? What, is he just going to start printing money?
- Given all the issues surrounding ACORN, isn’t this lofty rhetoric just a slick veneer on politics as usual? Or is there a canned talking point that says bringing that up is “erratic”?
- Isn’t paying for your health care plan by raising a death tax a conflict of interest? If the health care system is funded by death rather than life, that might shift the incentives.
