Laura Ingraham doesn’t really want to debate David Hogg
Washington Post ^ | March 30, 2018 | Callum Borchers

Posted on 03/30/2018 8:20:14 PM PDT by Innovative

Two reasons could explain Laura Ingraham's decision to mock Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg for his college rejections. One is schadenfreude, but it is seems overly cynical to think that the Fox News host takes pleasure in watching more bad things happen to a teenager who lost 14 schoolmates and three educators last month.

The other, more plausible reason is that Ingraham wants to remove Hogg from a national conversation about gun control. Rather than debate him, she would prefer to disqualify him.

Why should she debate him? He is nothing but a loudmouth idiot.

You don’t “debate” the Left. You destroy them. When will “conservatives” ever get this through their thick skulls?

The anti-gunners were on the ropes until Laura had to play their stupid game.

Their march had backfired, and Justice Stephens let the cat out of the bag and their real agenda was out in the open.

Now instead of debating why the Left wants to repeal the 2nd Amendment, the narrative is now Laura and Fox are picking on the poor children - just as they wanted it.

That's why Hogg is out there flapping his gums, so conservatives can get into Twitter wars with him while the Bloombergs keep chipping away at the 2nd behind the scenes.

Utter, incomprehensible stupidity

To hell with the “narrative.” And to hell with “the children.” Stand up and fight.

Of course fight. But you don't go after the yapping poodle humping your leg seeking attention. You take down the big fish.

Bloomberg and Giffords' groups are behind this crap. TAKE THEM DOWN. Don't worry about the kids.

I see. So when a “kid” is busted for drunk driving the cops “don’t worry” about it? Nothing different here. He is a partisan combatant and should be treated as such.

Your analogy is specious. It's simply not the same argument.

Who is “going after” Bloomberg and Giffords? Nobody. Your suggestion is fantasy. The GOP is assuming their usual doormat submissive position in any heated media battle. Therefore, I’m not going to criticize anybody who chooses to engage any of these Alinskyites.

Pro-gun folks should. They're the real villians behind all of this.

Your suggestion is fantasy.

Your General McClellan strategy is weak. You want to engage in high school spats in the playground. I want total destruction of my enemies. That means going after the left-wing groups funding and organizing the kids, not the kids themselves.

The GOP is assuming their usual doormat submissive position in any heated media battle.

So don't wait for them to save your ass. Fight your own battles.

I would LOVE to debate David Hogg. And the article is WRONG about Ingraham - she invited Hogg to appear on her show, and HE refused.
