I See Stupid People: The Nevada Democratic Party Edition

Can someone explain to me why the Nevada Democrats want to host a primary presidential debate on Fox News?

I guess the Nevada Dems are rewarding Fox News for its fair and unbiased portrayal of Democratic...aw, fuck it. This is so stupid, you can't even mock it with sarcasm. I had thought that after the 2006, the establishment Democrats had removed the giant "Kick Me" sign welded to their collective posterior.

Oh, and here's a description of the hatchet job Fox News did to the Democrats the last time Fox News hosted a Democratic debate:

For an example of how disrespectful and counterproductive such Fox News-sponsored Democratic debates are, consider the September 9, 2003 Democratic debate in Baltimore, Maryland, hosted by Fox News in partnership with the Congressional Black Caucus. Fox News graphics, as well as a banner over the stage, titled the event as the "Democrat Candidate Presidential Debate," a misconstruction of "Democrat" used as an epithet. Fox News then summarized the debate with a story titled, "Democratic Candidates Offer Grim View of America," continuing with such jabs as, "The depiction of the president as the root of all evil began at the top of Tuesday night's debate...."

I swear every Democratic political operative must have fallen out of the Stupid Tree and smacked into every damn branch on the way down. Intelligent Designer, save us from such stupid people.

An aside: I'm sure this is TEH ATHIESTS fault...

They're probably stupid enough to think this is going to bring their message to the other side, not realising that other side doesn't give a good goddamn about their message.
