The Republican Debate

Stupid questions of the night:
(1)In a debate packed with silly questions and ones matching left-wing attack points on GOP candidates, in the first “Interactive Round” of questions submitted by the public on Politico.com, a co-sponsor of the debate, Mitt Romney got the most bizarre. The Politico Executive Editor Jim VandeHei, a Washington Post political reporter before jumping to The Politico earlier this year, found this one worth posing: “Daniel Dekovnick [sp phonetic] from Walnut Creek, California wants to know, 'What do you dislike most about America?'"

(2)The “Interactive Rounds” at the Republican presidential debate, from the Ronald Reagan Library in California and carried live on MSNBC, became an opportunity to raise hostile questions from a left-wing agenda or meant to embarrass the candidates (what's the difference between Shia and Sunni? How many have been killed or injured in Iraq? etc. Unbelievable!)

(3) Some of the other questions VandeHei chose to ask during the same round (about 25 minutes into the debate) in which he posed the whopper to Romney: To Rudy Giuliani, “Bradley Winter of New York would like to know if there's anything you learned, or regret, during your time as Mayor in your dealings with the African-American community?”;

(4) “Thousands of reputable scientists have concluded, with almost certainty, that human activity is responsible for the warming of the Earth. Do you believe global warming exists?”

(5) Tom Tancredo: “Will you work to protect women's rights, as in fair wages and reproductive choice?”

(6) Chris Matthews seriously proposed to all ten candidates: “Would it be good for America to have Bill Clinton back living in the White House?”

The moderator, Chris Matthews, seemed to think he was on "Hardball" and had to keep the pups, punks and rubes--that would be the candidates--in line. He cut them off--"Congressman, that's time!"--and occasionally hectored. One of the stars was the buzzing clock. It interrupted all thought.

When will republicans learn. This is why the Dem's wouldn't have a debate on Fox. Yet, they allow themselves to be dishonored with loaded left wing, learn nothing questions.

Now that Stuart Smalley and Air-America have predictably failed, the Dem's are attempting to revive the "Fairness Doctrine" in order to silence conservative talk radio. Progressives seek to stifle free speech.

Time, time, and more time. That’s what a senior Army officer in Iraq (speaking on background) pleaded for in a recent meeting with supporters of the war in Washington in the last week.
This proves that America can never again win a war. It will only excel in a defensive war. a war that is fought on our home turf. But to win, we have to take it on the offense, which means going to the country/countries we fight against. But we now know that the American public doesn't have the patience to stay there and win. So we lose. We will always play defense. That's what the Dem's are trying to tell us. Never win, only lose and react to attacks.
