[Peace-discuss] Framing the question(ers)

[C. G. Estabrook]

Best example of the Limits of Allowable Debate (LAD) I've seen in some time:

"The Economist is hosting a debate on the proposition:  'This house believes that 
Obama’s America is now an honest broker between Israel and the Arabs.'  The 
online debate includes comments and voting by the readers. Daniel Levy of J-
Street and the New America Foundation is taking the affirmative, and David Frum 
of the America Enterprise Institute is taking the negative. "

eries/debate28/events/hp/panel/?source=hpevents

Phrased that way, it puts me on Frum's side...! But he's "arguing the position that 
Obama is an anti-zionist Arab/Iran/Muslim-lover."
