GOP:"We Can't Do Anything About Biased Moderators." Bull! (Action Alert)
The Red Side of Life ^ | 8/15/12 | RedInNewYork

Posted on 08/15/2012 7:21:06 AM PDT by jmstein7

Yesterday, after hundreds of irate conservatives called to complain about the extremely leftist panel of presidential debate moderators, the GOP began telling callers that there was nothing they could do about it and that they should contact the "non-partisan" commission on Presidential debates. This is outrageous! Of course they can do something about it - they can man-up and say "no!"

To add insult to injury, instead of standing up for their conservative constituents, the GOP blasted the sources of outrage on Free Republic and Twitter - they have decided to shoot the messenger.

First, I strongly urge anyone who cares about freedom, fairness, and reforming the GOP (getting the GOP-e OUT), to call in to the following shows and shine the light on the cockroaches at the RNC who are supposed to be supporting us, not ignoring and attacking us:

Rush Limbaugh: 1-800-282-2882
Sean Hannity: 1-800-941-SEAN
Mark Levin: 1-877-381-3811

Tip: first call in about an hour before the show starts. If enough people call, at least one will get through and on the air.

This is an important issue!!! Let's review:

A couple of days ago the moderators for the Presidential and the VP debates were announced. As expected, it’s an All-Star team of exceptionally Liberal and horrifically biased “journalists”:
First presidential debate:

Jim Lehrer, Executive Editor of the PBS NewsHour
Wednesday, October 3, University of Denver, Denver, CO

Vice presidential debate:

Martha Raddatz, Senior Foreign Affairs Correspondent, ABC News
Thursday, October 11, Centre College, Danville, KY

Second presidential debate (town meeting):

Candy Crowley, Chief Political Correspondent, CNN and Anchor, CNN’s State of the Union
Tuesday, October 16, Hofstra University, Hempstead, NY

Third presidential debate:

Bob Schieffer, Chief Washington Correspondent, CBS News and Moderator, Face the Nation
Monday, October 22, Lynn University, Boca Raton, FL

Why Republicans continue to agree to having these debates moderated by biased Liberals. We should either refuse, or insist upon our own selected moderators for half of the debates.
About the only way to get any more biased would be to have Soledad O’Brien (complete with her Obama bumper sticker plastered to her forehead and clutching a copy of the latest Democrat talking points from Talking Points Memo).
Yet despite having their all-star biased stacked team, the Democrats are still insisting that some questions be off limits:
Some Democratic lawmakers want to make sure that one question does not get asked at the upcoming first presidential debate – about Simpson-Bowles.

Three Democratic House members objected Tuesday to a request by four senators that President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney be asked which of the commission’s proposals to address the debt they support. The Democrats said such a question would force “candidates to choose solutions from one menu of options.”

Yes…by all means…please don’t ask about the only bi-partisan debt-reduction solution that exists.
You want to know the absolute best indicator that a question should be asked during the debate? If one party or the other insist that it should be barred.

Of course the real reason Dems don’t the question asked of Prez Barky is he’ll have to explain how and why he wasted millions on a commission he didn’t want and to which he paid no attention.

So, keep POUNDING AWAY at the RNC and the Campaign:

Together, we can make a difference.

I just called the RNC to voice my opinion and the man wanted to know if I got my information from freerepublic.com.

In the immortal word of Andrew Breitbart: "So?"

This crap really makes my blood boil. Hey, Mr. Rinse and Repeat, big shot RNC Chairman get your head out of your ass and grow a spine will ya!! The SRM are our enemy! They try every day to do whatever they can to damage your candidates. The moderators of these debates are unabashed liberals. They are the enemy. They want to, and will, damage your candidate in these Obama butt-kissing, dog and pony show debates. Why are you letting them? Are you afraid of them? F them!! Tell them to screw off and that your candidate will not show up unless there are independent moderators chosen and agreed to by both sides. I am so sick of this go along crap! Take a stand against the enemy and don’t back down!! Be a freaking leader!

A time-keeper and the candidates asking one another questions is fair.
