Posted on September 12, 2011 at 9:00pmBlitzer got a good question from a Tea Party person about the Fed, asked 2 people about it and then totaly changed the question to about treason! Someone should stand up and make him get back to the question.

Your thoughts on debate winner/loser?
Report Post »The-Monk
Posted on September 12, 2011 at 10:43pm@Okie from Muskogee
The winner was CNN and the Progressives that hijacked the Tea Party sponsored debate and changed the questions to meet their agenda. Like Blitzer changing the “what would you do about The Federal Reserve” question to “Do you think Bernanke should be brought up on charges of treason”?
The loser was us. We had a really good debate set up here in Tampa. Had all the Tea Party groups set up to ask questions and CNN would take every question, direct it to the person that would cause the most damage and then run with the slaughter.
We were also the loser during the last debate when MSNBC hijacked it and did the same thing.
I hope the Tea Party, Fox News or GBTV gets to “run the show” when Obama gets on stage.

Posted on September 12, 2011 at 9:41pmI was among the first to question Perry’s HPV connection. I am not a fan of Perry or Romney. Huntsman seems weak. Still, I would take any one of these people over Obama. My preference is Bachmann, Cain and Santorum.

I think this headline from an AP story in the Minneanoplce Star Tribune backs up my feelings… “Perry assailed by Republican rivals in tea party debate, defends Social Security comments” You may feel that Perry is not the guy for you, fine! But are you seeing the whole truth? Who would your ideal be at this point in the race?

Posted on September 12, 2011 at 8:55pmI’m really starting to like Newt, but these liberal channel sponsored GOP debates are always the same questions and then we hear the same answers. I have a good question that is never asked–would you as president get the U.S. out of the U.N.? Would you stop eminent domain?

Posted on September 12, 2011 at 9:56pmThe LSM keeps putting Romney & Perry front and center. Hmmmmm……..
Newt does keep bringing the fight to Obama. He is not electable. It would be far better for one of the others to offer a cabinet post for Newt and Ron Paul. That’s the way you win their voters. Duh.

Posted on September 12, 2011 at 8:47pmI am not in anybody’s camp yet, but it may be nice to have a true Texan in office. GW was born in CT. Perry exemplifies the spirit of Texans as we have come to endear. Speak your mind and do it in a sweat southern drawl.

Posted on September 12, 2011 at 8:43pmI like Bachmann & think she has great values oriented ideas but as I watch the debate I think she’s out of her depth on the mechanics of how to make things work (not as bad as Obama); her resume & experience level is just a bit too short.

Posted on September 12, 2011 at 8:35pmI really want to know why no one is talking about the cost of illegal immigration to our country. I wish someone would take this question. Would you allow someone to break into your house, eat your food, take your job, expect you to pay for medical, education and retirement – without trying to get them to leave? It just doesn’t make sense!
