What do you mean that's NOT the QUESTION?
"No argument here: These debaters are in top form; Students hone their skills with Boston league" by Emma Rose Johnson, Globe Correspondent | February 8, 2009
.... The Boston Debate League organizes meets for eight Boston public high schools. The competitions are held on Friday evenings and all day Saturday. At each meet, teams debate over a given resolution. The resolution for the city championships this year asked whether government "should substantially increase alternative energy incentives in the United States."
That's the debate? Pfffft! More agenda-advancing crap!
Each team takes turns arguing for, and then against, the proposition and uses their hours of research to buttress their case....
--more--"And look at what debate the Globe is pushing this day:
Repeal of 'Don't ask, don't tell'
Open door creates problems
Military just catching up
And look at where I find the word "conspiracy."
Ticketmaster is sued for conspiracy
