Good Faith and the Defrost Diva

Yesterday, health care wonk Ezra Klein issued a challenge.
Let's have a good faith argument. I will debate Michelle Malkin anytime, anywhere, in any forum (save HotAir TV, which she controls), on the particulars of S-CHIP. We can set the debate at a think tank, on BloggingHeads, over IM. Hell, we can set up the podiums in the shrubbery outside my house, since that seems to be the sort of venue she naturally seeks out. And then if Malkin wants an argument, she can have one. We'll talk S-CHIP and nothing but -- nothing of the Frosts, or Congress, or her blog.

This seemed like exactly what Malkin was asking for. She keeps alleging that "leftists" refuse to debate the issue of SCHIP, instead choosing to hide behind children rather than defend their arguments. Here was a chance for her to have some face time with someone well versed on the subject.

Naturally, the Defrost Diva melted.
“Debate” Ezra Klein? What a perverse distraction and a laughable waste of time that would be. And that’s what they really want, isn’t it? To distract and waste time so they can foist their agenda on the country unimpeded.

Yes, can't be having these petty "debates" distracting us from the far more important issue of slandering and destroying a family already struggling to make ends meet who were lucky enough to have been eligible for help from the government when a life altering event could have easily forced them into true destitution.

Now if you'll excuse her, Ms. Malkin needs to go dig through her sources for the next installment of her investigative "reporting".
