. . . I think you'll find that few are willing to take you up on your attempt at baiting like this. Generally, on DU, if people want to discuss something, they will post something that lays out their own position, and then people respond accordingly. Asking people to "discuss" a particular quotation, with no indication of whom you are quoting, and no indication of your own position, when you yourself have a very short track record here, makes people suspect you are trolling.
