The Unreasonable Debates (A Work in Progress)

(I should start this by saying this is really politically incorrect and pretty inappropriate at times. Now you can't say I didn't warn you.
This is something I'm writing because of two things: 1) the election and 2) there's a chance the Drama Club at my school might produce something I write. It's for parody purposes, guys. I'm not as prejudiced as the people I write about.
This is still progress. I plan on adding to it more.)

Moderator: Welcome the First American Unreasonable Debates, where the two most unreasonable parties in politics will be discussing their platform wedge issues. I’m Shelly Bates, and I’ll be the moderator tonight. On my right is General David Butsch of the Fear Party and on my left is Former Senator Michael Quincey of the Apathy Party. David, your opening remarks?
