Too Chicken To Debate?

INDIANAPOLIS, IN -- Those cries by Hillary Clinton loyalists for a Dem debate in the May 6th states haven't died down, as evidenced last night by a report on the local news.

With a band of like-minded area Clinton supporters, Dannie Chandler rented a yellow limousine, attached a chicken head to its roof and parked the avian display in front of the Obama office field office.

"He's just a chicken if he doesn't want a debate," Chandler, 64, said when reached via phone.

About 10 volunteers stood outside Obama's office for an hour and a half yesterday in the pouring rain, holding signs that read: "Too Chicken To Debate?" and "Running Scared In Indiana." Chandler and his poultry brood had to wear yellow parkas to protect themselves from the pouring rain.

"And we kinda looked like chickens, too," he chuckled.

Obama can't debate without a teleprompter and a moderator who doesn't have the guts to ask him hard questions. Or Rezko and his hoodlum political buddies from Chicago running interference for him.

Calling someone "chicken"?

Wow - real mature. Just the sort of maturity we need in the White House.

oh wait - we've already had that for the last 7 years...

Even as a non-Clinton supporter i think this is pretty funny!

Does anyone see the parallel imagery to the Minnesota National Guard in Iraq responding to John Kerry's comments? "Halp us, John Karry. We R Stuck in Irak"

Great photo, even if the yellow outfits were coincidence.

This is so beneath a candidate for president. The world is watching with some derision, I'm sure. We should be embarrassed by these sort of antics.

Are you out of your mutha cluckin minds .. Obama isn't scared to debate, he's just brighter than Billary ... Just how many new topics can be generated after 20+ debates .. this debate would be used to tar and feather Obama (pun intended) by Hillary .. she has nothing new on this man other than innuendo and the fact that Rev. Wright isn't wrapped too tight ... Hillary would waste the debate time, just like last time, to interrogate him on the nutcase Wright .. If and when Hillary is wants a debate, she should stick to topics that are of interest to all Americans, not just her ego ... Obama is the agent of change our Country is in need of ... Clintons had 8 years, Bush another 8 ....8 more years of Clintons is about as palatable as KFC serving up a hot dish of BS using Wright as the excuse for racism in America ...Celebrate the fact that we are very close to having a Democrat in the White House rather than dividing and conquering the Party ...we must unite this party or McPain will get the nod ... God Bless America ..

One more thing ... Hillary worries about his inexperience ... she can't even keep her own husband in control .....how will she control our Country ....I really do wonder who will answer the phone at 3 a.m. ..... will it be Hillary or Bill ... I can see the arm wrestling event ...Hello, it's Hillary .. no,it's Bill .. no, scouts honor...it's Hillary ...only to find out it's the Clinton Concubine dailing the wrong number .. run a Country .. almost laughable ..
