Too funny! The president of Air America writes a letter to Republicans offering to host their state presidential debates.
Liberals are just so kind-hearted!
Republicans filtered through the critical liberal lens . . . is there any other way to view the tired old relics from yesteryear?
Will the angry old white men at Fox News rise to the challenge?
Recall that when the Democrats cancelled the Fox News hosted Nevada debates, the fair and balanced in your dreams channel responded by charging that the Dems were acting like big bad ole' Stalin. More recently, O'Reilly said the Dems were acting like Nazis. Seriously.

Tweaking the Fox News Channel, the president of liberal Air America Radio this morning sent a letter to the chairmen of four state Republican parties, offering to host and broadcast the state parties' upcoming presidential debates.
Agreeing to the debate “would allow Republicans to differentiate themselves from Democrats,” Air America President Mark Green wrote to the Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, and South Carolina Republican chairmen in a deadpan communication provided this morning to The Politico.
The Nevada State Democratic Party dropped plans for Fox to broadcast an August debate after furious pressure from online activists, a move that drew attacks from Fox and the label of “Stalinist” from one Fox News commentator, Mort Kondracke.
“Should you accept Air America’s offer, Republicans would both embrace free debate and stick it to Stalin at the same time,” Green wrote.
