There's an old saying I like to jokingly say to friends or acquaintances that disagree with me politically but on rare occasions discern an issue correctly: "A broken clock is right twice a day." Well, the Congressional Black Caucus has had a broken clock moment in this early presidential contest.

Normally sidelined to irrelevancy in the political process, the CBC has decided to team up with Fox News - the great Satan of journalism to liberals - to co-sponsor primary debates this fall for each party's presidential field. This is a smart move by the CBC. It allows the organization to publicize its agenda to cable news' largest television audience and it gives cover to Majority Leader Reid, who was in favor of a Fox debate in Nevada this summer, but caved when Moveon.org and other fringe left groups made a stink.

"The CBC Institute is committed to presenting the presidential candidates to the broadest audience possible," Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., the chairman of the institute, said in a statement. "Collaborating with Fox News provides an opportunity to take this presidential election to millions of households."

Of course, poverty pimps like Jesse Jackson and the idiots who run this outfit can't put aside unnecessary partisanship and see the big picture.

"The CBC Institute's decision is shamefully out of step with most black voters and we will continue to push on the CBC Institute to drop this deal," said James Rucker, head of colorofchange.org.

It's "out of step with most black voters" to have a chance to see and listen to men and women who want to be the next president of the United States?
