    He absolutely does not want his real positions exposed! How can a man who aspires to be president of the greatest nation in the world (and undoubtedly one of if not the most demanding jobs in the world) that has free and equal access of the press refuse to debate on Fox News? I think Leno put it very well, how can he propose that he can deal with terrorists but not want to answer questions proposed by Fox? What a true coward Obama is!

    Fox, news would ask hard questions, that require answers. He finds it impossible to answer questions that are not prescript-ed. You need also to ask what news program has he gone on? Then you will realize he cannot/will not attend any media event where the questions have not been sent to him prior to the scheduled event. Think about the debates prior to his nomination. He fell apart and showed his true colors. Fox news is the toughest of all of the networks, and they call them as they see them. That is why the Lib's hate them so much.

    I totally agree with Jay Leno.He wasn't just being funny. We have a right to see how Obama will handle himself under pressure. We are in perilous times in America. and we do not know this man. Think about it. This is not the time in History for playing president. we need a leader with experience where we we like the man personally or not. Our very lives could depend on it Let Georgia be a lesson to you Look how Russia just went in on them and attacked them and over 2000 dead. wake up people.

    isn't it interesting, He'll gladly sit down and talk with known terrorist but he's afraid of Sean Hannity. He feels a lot more comfortable with his friends like

    William Ayers - American Terrorist

    Raul Reyes - Colombian Terrorist

    Antonio Rezko - Muslim Slum Lord

    Professor Khalidi - Muslim Terrorist Supporter

    Reverend Wright - Racist N.O.I. Muslim Supporter/Preacher -racist - anti-American

    Reverend Otis Meeks - racist

    Reverend Louis Farrakhan - Racist Nation of Islam / Faux Preacher

    Reverend. Jesse Jackson - racist - adulterer - anti-Semitic

    Nadhmi Auchi - Muslim Billionaire

    Sohaib Abassi - Muslim Millionaire

    New Black Panther Party - became home to many former Nation of Islam members a black supremacist organization

    "We like Mr. Obama, and we hope that he will win the elections," Ahmed Yousuf, Hamas' top political adviser in the Gaza Strip, said in an exclusive interview with World Net Daily and with the John Batchelor Show on WABC Radio in New York.

    Fox news is the ONLY major television news cast that is NOT owned by George Soros---he would likely go on fox news if some left wing liberal like Chris Matthews where the questions and answers were scripted out and hand-picked to give him greater curb appeal.

    Obama is terrified of FOX News for the same reason that Obama is afraid of McCain & frightened of 7 year old girls.

    The common denominator between FOXS news & McCain & 7 year old girls is that they all expose Obama as the stuttering buffoon that Obama is and, as such, Obama is scared to death.

    Amazing that all the Obama supporters say fox isn't fair and that is justification for him to avoid it.

    If Obama cannot face a little criticism and bias on Fox news how in the hell will he face the likes of dictators and anti-American leaders who would be a hell of a lot harder than Fox would ever be.

    Give me a break. This guy is so afraid of criticism and confrontation he would not last 10 minutes in an unscripted debate.

    Because ... they will NOT kiss his "celebrity" backside !!

    IF .. he has to give a response without the aid of a teleprompter and / or his speech writers, he will show that he really is an empty suit !!

    JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama wants to END WORLD POVERTY on ... OUR NICKEL AND SURRENDER THE United States ... to THE United Nations.

    .

    Please, search the ...

    Global Poverty Act (S.2433), ... and it is being sponsored by none other than JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama- -

    - - who has a total of 143 DAYS of experience

    - - believes that HE DESERVES to be THE President of THE United States of America.

    .

    WE NEED to start doing the "REPORT ABUSE" Button on the ABUSIVE Obama Supporters for EVERY LITTLE ... POSSIBLE ... Violation, like they do to the rest of the people on here !!!!

    .

    JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama, the Unions, and the Democrats are sending messages to big business to downsize in America and send more jobs to foreign countries.

    Brilliant ideas from JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama, the Democrats and the Unions (SARCASM) !!!!

    My answer is;

    Why would anyone walk into the Den of his Enemy? Can we have a Neutral Ground Like Bristol Motor Speedway? room for All Major stations to carry it. 10 People who score as "Centralist" will win the opportunity to score each question like they do on Monster Jam and then vote on who gave the best answer! Asking the Questions will be one "Quizzer" for the Right and one from the Left.

    I think Rush Limbaugh and Big Ed Schultz will do fine.

    Now we can have a Real Debate scored by middle of the road Americans and know who really won according to Americans who aren't crashed off in a Ditch somewhere.

    Gentlemen, Start Your Debating!

    that is my answer.

    Cause Hannity wouldn't get that "shiver up his leg" like Matthews and because they would be "racist" and not let him use a teleprompter or go second. Maybe if Hannity asked Alan the question first and then Sen. Obmama could go second it would work out. Just my humble thoughts and you can thank me later.

    YOu have some incredible answers on here that are insightful and thoughtful, then you have some stupid ones, i think you can figure them out.
