Demand Question Time
posted at 9:30 am on February 3, 2010 by Ed Morrissey
A group of bloggers from the Left and the Right have launched a new effort to demand more substantive engagement in Washington. After last week’s meeting between Barack Obama and the House Republican Caucus wound up benefiting everyone, we have begun a petition drive to demand a regular Question Time to have the President available to engage in meaningful discourse with his opposition in Congress:
A politically diverse group of bloggers, commentators, techies and politicos on Wednesday will launch an online campaign, Demand Question Time, urging President Barack Obama and GOP congressional leaders to hold regular, televised conversations like the extraordinary exchange in Baltimore on Friday. Supporters include Grover Norquist, Joe Trippi, Mark McKinnon, Ed Morrissey, Ari Melber, Katrina vanden Heuvel and David Corn.
Original endorsers include Grover Norquist and Eli Pariser, Joe Trippi and Mark McKinnon, Markos Moulitsas and Ed Morrissey, and many more, including Ari Melber, Katrina vanden Heuvel, Ana Marie Cox and Nate Silver. The steering committee is made up of Micah Sifry, David Corn, Mike Moffo, Mindy Finn, Jon Henke and Glenn Reynolds. …
Demand Question Time invites visitors to sign a petition: “We live in a world that increasingly demands more dialogue than monologue. President Obama’s January 29th question-and-answer session with Republican leaders gave the public a remarkable window into the state of our union and governing process. It was riveting and educational. The exchanges were substantive, civil and candid. And in a rare break from our modern politics, sharp differences between elected leaders were on full public display without rancor or ridicule. …
“So we call on President Barack Obama and House Minority Leader John Boehner to hold these sessions regularly – and allow them to be broadcast and webcast live and without commercial interruption, sponsorship or intermediaries. We also urge the President and the Republican Senate caucus to follow suit. And we ask the President and the House and Senate caucuses of his own party to consider mounting similar direct question-and-answer sessions. We will ask future Presidents and Congresses to do the same. It is time to make Question Time a regular feature of our democracy.”
Last week’s event was an all-around win. Obama got a chance to look presidential and to get away from scripted responses. His presence there forced the media to cover the substantial policy proposals from the GOP caucus, coverage that had been all but nonexistent before now. It coincided with Rep. Paul Ryan’s attempt to reintroduce the Republican plan for health-care reform, a bill that the media ignored throughout 2009 while helping Democrats call the GOP the Party of No.
Obama promised to put ObamaCare negotiations on C-SPAN. Regular appearances such as this would go a long way toward providing the transparency he promised but failed to deliver in his first year.
If you agree, please sign the Demand Question Time petition here.
Update: The petition site is already overwhelmed; you may want to try a little later today, when they can get the site functioning.

PBHO felt lucky to escape with his skin during the last question time, he won’t be willing to do that again because it’s way outside his comfort zone.
Bishop on February 3, 2010 at 9:37 AM
I’m not convinced this would really work, but if you can get Obama to participate, hey, give it a try! Just keep in the back of your minds that just because he SAYS he’ll participate doesn’t mean he actually WILL.
I’d love to see him squirm.
Mad Mad Monica on February 3, 2010 at 9:37 AM
List of bloggers… does that mean that AP is actually listed by name in that group? Ed’s part of the group!
Oink on February 3, 2010 at 9:37 AM
Win/win. Either it happens which benefits everyone both now and in the future; or it doesn’t, and thatt’s an embarassing postition to try to defend when you’ve placed so much emphasis on transparency.
Even the MSM could get behind it since it makes for (relatively) compelling TV and they can still spin it any way they like afterwards.
DrAllecon on February 3, 2010 at 9:38 AM

Unfortunately, the Far Left (Obama’s true base) believe that bipartisanship means that Conservatives will allow every bill they propose to pass.

On first blush, this is something I can learn to live without… and, after a few of them, I wonder whether it wouldn’t get out of control.
Can you imagine some of the Dem bombthrowers asking questions: “Ok, Prez Bush, exactly when did you stop beating your wife?”
Or, I can do without another Townhall thang – certainly considering that there will be no actual people attending; merely politicians/lawyers telling the peeps what they think they want to hear measured with what they can get away with.
Shivas Irons on February 3, 2010 at 9:41 AM
What? Obowma needs more TV time?
We know he is incompetent already, he doesn’t need to prove it anymore than he already has. Obowma will continue his lying ways with or without the cameras on as with the C Span healthcare issue.
The benefit would certainly be to the republicans in helping to get out their message and their policies by bypassing the media which is a great idea.
dthorny on February 3, 2010 at 9:42 AM
Great idea.
But…Obama is a serial liar. He knows nothing else. Any questions directed at him will not be answered. The only benefit this will provide is exposing his character, which may be than we could have asked for.
katy on February 3, 2010 at 9:43 AM
This action is completely unnecessary!
‘Da Preziment’ will voluntarily come out and lie to us, all on his own terms…… No formalities necessary……

Here’s a suggestion. A mandate that any President with an 8% or greater unemployment rate must work at his desk in the Oval Office five days a week. For every 1% that the unemployment rate is lowered below 8%, the President does not have to go to work a day of his or her choosing.

bridgetown on February 3, 2010 at 9:48 AM
I don’t think that session went as well as everyone seems to think. Obama looked like he was crawling to the GOP for votes on his disasterous agenda because even his own party refuses to vote for it. Obama isn’t going to go centrist and the GOP has, so far, refused to give an inch in their principles. Washington in gridlock is probably the best thing for our country while Obama is president.
Q&A sessions like that are heroin for political junkies, other than that they are a waste of time. When one party is so radical that their own members refuse to support it’s agenda, we need to clean house, not have feel-good media soundbites and gum-flapping sessions to help the President look “Presidential”.

Oh, it sounds terribly “democratic,” in the larger sense of the word; however, those of us who’ve lived under parliamentary governments such as in Canada, where there is a daily “Question Period” in the House of Commons, realize its limitations. The main beneficiaries are the MSM, who always have a supply of sound bites.
Most important, I came to realize that the best debater is not necessarily going to be the best leader.
No, I think we enough bread and circuses already. Anybody who doesn’t know what Obama’s voice sounds like hasn’t been trying very hard.

DeMint too….all the rest of our critters suck it.
nondhimmie on February 3, 2010 at 9:55 AM
one problem I see is ObaMao and Clinton both answer questions in away to appease both sides. They restate the issue or problem so that both sides see him as agreeing with them.
Policy is what is important not what he says. Like right before meeting with bankers he stated that he was sick of fat cat bankers but that was to cover him from being seen as being in bed with bankers. He says what is popular but is a hard core communist. All this recent discord with China is cover or diversion. You cannot trust what he says. At least we can get our view heard and call him on his agenda.
Ed Laskie on February 3, 2010 at 9:56 AM
Really? What is the evidence for that claim?
The fact is that it benefited ONLY President Obama. The liberal MSM had selective quotes that made the president look good and the Republicans look like Washington insiders and obstructionists opposing any “compromise.”
Some Republicans, like Ed Morrissey, will NEVER learn. So Ed is now pushing bipartisanship and engagement with the president? Does he think that Democrats are that stupid? Has he learned anything from the eight years under Bush? If the Democrats agree to it, it will be on their terms and their buddies in the MSM will help them out.
Gabe on February 3, 2010 at 9:56 AM
We don’t need to dialogue with them. We need to defeat them.

Exactly. Bipartisanship is a beltway circle-jerk.
Mord on February 3, 2010 at 9:57 AM
Forcing the media to cover it is most important. At the present time Obummer can lie, exaggerate, obfuscate and no opposition is heard.
Herb on February 3, 2010 at 9:58 AM
Right, and MSM will pick the bites that are most unfavorable to us and most favorable to the Omamatards. That’s one big reason why putting this stuff on TV is likely a big mistake.

dhunter on February 3, 2010 at 10:01 AM
I’ll have to think about this…
We’re not a Parliamentary system, so does the Legislature have the right to require this type of interaction from the Executive? (Isn’t that what the State of the Union was originally supposed to be for, before it was reduced to a fawning spectacle?) And as far as the media being able to demand/require more access to the Executive, I’d rather see them all quit/fail than give them any more power. Without a doubt, the weakness of our constitutional system has been the failure of the media to do it’s duty.
JiangxiDad on February 3, 2010 at 10:02 AM
sometimes, I see comments like in this thread and I can’t help but think that President Obama is really too good for us. We don’t deserve him.
Palin Steele on February 3, 2010 at 10:03 AM
When is the last time he had a press conference with the White House press corps?

Oh goodie, another threadjacking troll.
katy the mean old lady on February 3, 2010 at 10:05 AM
I am not going to say that I’m outright opposed to this, but I have concerns. Demanding that the president make himself available to congress for questioning, or vice verca, raises separation of power issues. In a parliamentary system, the prime minister is a member of the same body that is questioning him. What is in the petition might not be a bad idea, but where does it lead with respect to the separation of powers? It’s something to think about.
Mark1971 on February 3, 2010 at 10:07 AM
My petition is already in place under millions of Tea Party signs. I don’t need or want to petition milquetoast bi-partisan bloggers holding hands and engaging with Obama to “change him”. Quit being abused women and man up.
Fletch54 on February 3, 2010 at 10:07 AM
LOL yeah we definatly do not deserve Obama. We need Captain America!
Mord on February 3, 2010 at 10:08 AM
Well, it can’t be like Question Time in the House of Parliament, in terms of tone, because the Brits are used to both aggressive questioning and audience heckling of the questioner that makes Joe Wilson’s “You Lie!” line look wimpish by comparison.
Do it that way, and you’ll lose all those moderate swing voters who were suckered in by Hope and Change in the first place, and who are fleeing from Obama and the Democrats both because they don’t like his policies and because they’re angry about the lack of bi-partisanship shown by Barack, Harry and Nancy, with the brunt of their wrath actually going towards the latter two. So Republicans can ask their questions and make their points politely, but they can’t be seen as ‘picking on’ poor President Obama, because the voters you’ll need come November don’t want aggressive confrontational politics.

thomasaur on February 3, 2010 at 10:11 AM
I’d like to see “Question Time” be limited to one broad topic. An hour on health care reform could produce some real debate on the issues.
Otherwise both sides will just be rolling out their best talking points, and then move on to other topics.

The fraud hasn’t held a press conference since last July. What makes any one think he might subject himself to real questions like this?
He pays no attention (nor does any one in DC) to all of the public opinion polls, why would a few million signatures on a petition bother him?
The fraud has an agenda and he’s much too busy trying to ram that agenda up all of America’s a$$ before he runs out of votes in the Senate and the Blue Dogs in the House finally wake up long enough to realize he’s sacrificing them on the alter of Heath Care.
GoldenEagle4444 on February 3, 2010 at 10:14 AM
But even if Obama talked to the press, they wouldn’t ask him any useful questions. They’d want to know what he had for dinner, what sort of soap he uses to keep his skin so healthy, how is the dog doing.
Good thing the Constitution protects the press, eh?
hawksruleva on February 3, 2010 at 10:14 AM
Yes. I didn’t even think of that side of it……but you’re right!
NewJerseyGirl on February 3, 2010 at 10:16 AM
The MSM is running out of things to cover since most of what The One is doing is failing. These discussions would be great for them.
You can only run so many “prosperity is right around the corner” and “Camelot” pieces before people turn off the news entirely. Or go to Fox.
But we can trust the Republicans to do exactly the wrong strategic thing. Pistol, foot, aim, fire!

Callin a liar a liar, refusing to debate when the premise is flawed or started so far to the left that it can never be drug to the middle will not lose enough voters to make a damn bit of difference.
The Dems demonized, lied about and obstructed George W. Bush for 8 years and it worked.

The media will do anything for their guy. It is incredible
I was sent a small collection of articles from the MSM about President Bush and the Iraq War by a liberal some time ago which were reviewed by a conservative.
If you were a Republican and you reviewed them, you would stay very quiet until one or two of those outlets changed. And changed a lot.
Look at what they are doing to former Governor Palin.

Exactly. And Ed Morrissey, if he is advocating this hare-brained, “bipartisan” scheme to have Obama look presidential and engage with Republicans, he is extremely naive. Ed says:
Drudge has a headline that 10 Senate seats could switch this year. So what do the stupid Republicans do? Follow the same successful agenda of opposing with no compromise Obama’s socialist agenda?
No, they and Ed want to change course and suddenly become bipartisan and give Obama a “win.” As IlikedAUH2O said:

If something like this does happen I think the Senators need to ask Zero hard hitting questions that the people want to hear not softball crap. They need to call him out in a nice way on the stimulus and say what happened to the 8% unemployment. What about the unions getting a better deal than the people for healthcare. I don’t think zero is going to open himself to these kind of questions. During the townhall yesterday the questions were all cherry picked. All he did was blame Bush. It that’s all he’s going to do is blame Bush then it’s not worth it.

RustBelt on February 3, 2010 at 11:02 AM
You know cable news = Fox News. He doesn’t want people watching Fox because for the most part they are telling the people what’s going on. When he’s called out on his lies he doesn’t like that so if you don’t watch Fox you can’t know he lied.
Brat4life on February 3, 2010 at 11:03 AM
The GOP leadership in the House and Senate is weak weak weak. They need to know how to debate. Let us not underestimate the Liar. He was not a law prof for nothing. Fortunately, he is peddling Bulls*** so he can be called out easily if someone from the GOP could call him out. Unfortunately, the GOP, except DeMint and Paul Ryan, are wimps. Can the Liar answer Glenn Beck? Can he answer Sarah? I think not. But we should not underestimate the Fool. We underestimate him at our own peril.
