Opening statements by David Sirota and Dennis Prager, from their September 22, 2008 Debate in Denver Colorado on What's Better for America, Liberal or Conservative Ideas?

by John Gaudio, Posted 2:55 PM, found by Google 4:07 PM  (under 2 hours)Dennis Prager loves this country deeply.  He grew up in a liberal Jewish home in New York.  "Liberal Jewish is redundant."  "One of the aims of my life is to unredundantize liberal and Jewish."  He never voted for a Republican until Ronald Reagan.  For Dennis, that was even harder than the first time he ate non-kosher food.  That's how he was raised, believing that it's a sin against God and Man to be a Republican.  He went to graduate school, and there he began his long long trek away from the left when he realized that he was taught mostly things that were not true.  Dennis Prager has come  to realize that most foolish things are said by the well educated.  "It's a very serious problem in America, and it is one that I fight a great deal.  Only the well educated believe that men and women are basically the same.  Only the well educated believe that the Soviet Union and the United States were morally equivalent.  Only the well educated think that Israel is the villain in the Middle East.  Something happens in college to warp ... the moral compass."<hr />David Sirota welcomed Dennis to Denver and appreciates the grass roots nature of this event.  He hopes the libertarian conservatives attending didn't feel uncomfortable driving on roads to get here, and hopes that they don't feel uncomfortable being in a public school. :-)  David grew up outside of Philadelphia, went to college at Northwestern for journalism, and went to work on Capital Hill for "the only independent in the United States Congress, Bernie Sanders, who is now a Senator from Vermont.  One of our best allies on Capital hill happened to be Ron Paul."David Sirota tells us that he is not an orthodox big D Democrat.  He considers himself to be a progressive, which he differentiates from being a liberal.  He moved from Washington DC to Montana, where he helped a guy name Brian Schweitzer to become the state's first Democratic governor in sixteen years, then moved to Denver.  His brother is a Dennis Prager listener, and a progressive, who likes a diversity of opinion.  "I too love our country.  I think our country is going in the very very wrong direction.  I think there is a major silver lining of what's going on, in terms of what's going on bad in this country, and I think this is a moment of opportunity for America to be the country it can be."<hr />The two hour debate was sponsored by Colorado Prager Fans, with a great deal of support from KNUS 710, and will be available on DVD in mid October.  For more information please call John Gaudio at 303-870-1044, or send email to <a href="mailto:john@gaudio.com">john@gaudio.com</a>.  Also, I'd love to hear your comments.  9 application/xml false David Sirota Dennis Prager John Gaudio Liberal Jewish is Redundant unredundantize liberal Jewish What's Better for America Liberal or Conservative Ideas Prager Radio Look over Dennis Prager's site to learn more about his generally conservative views. http://PragerRadio.com David Sirota's web site Learn about the liberal, (progressive) side of the debate at David Sirota's site. http://DavidSirota.com Colorado Prager Fans Check out this site to learn more about opportunities to get together with fans of Dennis Prager here in Colorado. http://dennisprager.meetup.com/2 710 KNUS News/Talk KNUS Radio carries Dennis Prager and many other conservative shows at 710 on the AM dial. http://710knus.townhall.com/ Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; Media Center PC 4.0) 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 johngaudio 67.176.89.238 false true false false true 176085 false false true false false false true 262731 Resource 176085 173239 1071 1291986632724 1292007517052 Controlled RE: Dennis Prager and David Sirota on What's Better for America, Liberal or Conservative Ideas?

You Guys

The only thing that scares me about you people is the sheep that follow you ! The statement that it takes all kinds to make the world go around, is the only reason I can think of to let you guys stay in America. And Joseph R. McCarthy thought communism was dangerous, he never met your kind. Where is McCarthy when we really need him                                                                      J.S. Slocum  <from JG>  You manage to criticise without saying anything of substance.  And we scare you? ;-) 10 application/xml false Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; GTB6.6; InfoPath.3; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.648; .NET CLR 3.5.21022; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729) 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 johngaudio 174.51.205.183 false true false false true 262742 Resource 176085 173239 1071 1292036492008 1297715957168 Controlled RE: Dennis Prager and David Sirota on What's Better for America, Liberal or Conservative Ideas?
