It’s listed to be on CNN. I think it will also be on the Heritage Foundation site.

The things that interest a liberal about our candidates are NOT the things I want to know. WHEN are our people going to be questioned by conservatives?

Well said! Hardly now need to watch. Wonder if “the wolf” will be up for Newt’s attack on the media tonight and try to take him on a bit? With Newt’s intellect, he can pull it off w/o sounding like the occasional whiner.

I think it's going to be eight simultaneous one-on-one debates between Wolf Blitzer and each Republican candidate.

I think I'll put my money on the Republican candidates!

Yes .. Heritage and American Enterprise Institute

RUSH: Folks, I have to tell you something. We got another Republican debate tonight. It’s sponsored by the Heritage Foundation.

It’s gonna be moderated by Wolf Blitzer, CNN. It’s gonna be broadcast by CNN. It’s a Heritage Foundation debate on foreign policy. And from what I’m told, old Wolf is out there preparing a response to Newt Gingrich if Newt chides him for the way he’s conducting things as the moderator.

You know, Newt’s been going after the media in these debates, and media’s been sort of flat-footed at the time of the attack, and they wait ‘til later that night or the next day to formulate their response.

Wolf is prepping. Wolf is rehearsing. From what I’m being told, Wolf Blitzer is rehearsing various retorts to Newt Gingrich, and he and his staff are trying to think of various things that Newt might say to insult them. It’s sort of like preparing for hecklers.

That’s what Wolf is doing to get ready for the — (interruption) No, I don’t know why they can’t find some conservative to moderate one of these debates. That’s one of these rhetorical questions that doesn’t have an answer, but if you’re gonna have CNN broadcast it why do you expect to have a conservative moderating it?

It seems to be a misplaced expectation. Anyway, as I’m watching all this, I keep asking rhetorical questions here, but I still want to ask them. When will the media do an anal exam of Obama?

Doctors (even CNN ones I bet) say wine is healthy so start drinking now and after a couple bottles you should feel healthier.

FLIP SLICK WILLARD RINO ROMNEY is almost hysterical in his daily rant against the commie in chief.

Too bad for poor WILLARD that he might as well be debating a mirror.

Opportunist phony coward degenerate sons of polygamist military service avoiding snake oil salesmen bitches from a family of phony coward degenerate sons of polygamist military service avoiding snake oil salesmen bitches like Romney need to be destroyed.

The GOP risks annihilation as long as he is in the mix.

This must be the last election cycle he is allowed to pollute.

There would not be any significant consequences for Blitzer, so he doesn’t care. Newt would be seen as a head on his wall.
