Welcome to My (And Not Sly's) House
http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/republican-campaigns-lay-out-their-debate-demands-n455466
So in case you haven't seen it, the Republican candidates for President are freaking out (again) over what they call biased questions designed as GOTCHA moments in the last debate. This has since turned into the candidates banding together, basically revolting against the entire process. They've put together a list of demands for how they want all future debates (like the one they're having in eight days, their fourth of the election cycle, as opposed to one by the Democrats so far) to proceed.
One such demand is that the debates only go two hours, but they seem to want to keep 10-12 candidates on stage. Their other main concern: not getting enough time for everyone to speak of course. This sounds like they just want a string of infomercials about their campaigns (which are all SO different) and a bunch of softballs thrown at them which they can aim at Hilary Clinton.
We're supposed to vote for these people as President but they're bailing because they don't like questions being asked. So if they're elected, we can fully expect them to bail out of all press conferences and meetings with foreign heads of state because they don't like someone questioning them?
Again: this is what America has come to. "WAH! YOU HURT MY FEELINGS! If you don't play nice I'm going home! VOTE FOR ME!"
