ROMNEY: The — the greatest failure we’ve had with regards to — to gun violence in some respects is what — what is known as Fast and Furious. Which was a program under this administration, and how it worked exactly I think we don’t know precisely, where thousands of automatic, and AK-47 type weapons were — were given to people that ultimately gave them to — to drug lords.They used those weapons against — against their own citizens and killed Americans with them. And this was a — this was a program of the government. For what purpose it was put in place, I can’t imagine. But it’s one of the great tragedies related to violence in our society which has occurred during this administration. Which I think the American people would like to understand fully, it’s been investigated to a degree, but — but the administration has carried out executive privilege to prevent all of the information from coming out.
I’d like to understand who it was that did this, what the idea was behind it, why it led to the violence, thousands of guns going to Mexican drug lords. OBAMA: Candy?
CROWLEY: Governor, Governor, if I could, the question was about these assault weapons that once were once banned and are no longer banned.
The captured video frame says volumes: Romney is disgusted that he has just been double-teamed -- and Øbozo is grining like an obiden eating green persimmons -- because his trained lapdog has just saved his sorry @$$...
IMHO, Øbozo's is a pretty obscene expression, considering the subject is the murder of hundreds -- including a U.S. LEO... :-(
Don’t let her read her poetry!
Perfect!!! ;-)
So, in essence...(preaching to the choir, I know)....O’bama laughs because Mexicans died?
Who’s got access to a Spanish speaking forum of some sort?
Every time Obama brings up “47%” - Romney should bring up the “AK-47s from Fast and Furious.”
A small point to go along with Crowley ambush. Obama must have been getting signals from someone in the audience when Romney’s time limit was over or close to the limit to interrupt him. I doubt Obama had a stop watch in his head.
I read it as a grin of relief -- because he knows he is literally getting away with murder -- and with satisfied glee because his b---h barked when he yanked her leash...
There was a big countdown timer there. You could occasionally see it during the debate.
I mean, how did it happen that Crowley just happened to have a hard copy of the transcript of Obama's speech in her hot little hand -- at the very moment Obama demanded, "check the transcript"?
And how did Crowley plough through thousands of words in the transcript to find the word "terror" in there, within about one second?
Is there any innocent explanation for this?
Others on FR have noted this. Yet I haven't seen any discussion of it elsewhere, even in the conservative media.
Romney should have said:
“Candy, I heard the question and I’m going to answer HIS question.”
You can’t distribute thousands of semi-auto and full-auto weapons to drug lords, with no plans or provisions to track them, and then claim that distribution was part of a sting or tracking operation.”
“The Bush administration executed a sting operation, but had the foresight to place tracking mechanisms in the weapons, AND they notified Mexican authorities that they were doing so.”
“President Bush cancelled his operation after determining the tracking mechanisms were being removed.”
“This Administration did neither, and NOW, he’s going to tell you how hard he’s been working to control assault weapons!”
IMHO, those numbers should be displayed continually at the top of the TV screen (plus running totals per candidate) so everyone can see how the time is really being allocated.
Bttt.
Well that explains it. Thanks.
“Say it louder, Candy!” “ ...wah, wah, wahh! Help me Candy! Wah! wahh! wahh! Get the bad, bad man!”
And at that point, Obama blathered on and on about EDUCATION.....and Can-do weakly tried to cut him off, which he refused to do.
Candy never asked Obama to answer the person’s question when bloviated for 2+ minutes. There were at least 3 questions he didn’t answer:
Libya
Voted for you in 2008, why should I give you my vote in 2012?
Why were the security requests denied and who denied them?
The likeness is striking! Good post.
Zero’s way of dealing with AK-47s is to send them to Mexican drug cartels and then blame Americans when the weapons are used to kill Mexican teenagers and our Border Patrol Agents.
Why do Republicans participate in these rigged “debates?”
Romney did bring uo Fast and Furious, but the pig shut him down.
Candy Crowley: FAT and FURIOUS
Candy The Hut.
Waaaahhhhh! Candy, make that bad man stop saying bad things about me!
Because the debates allow expression of good ideas to a wide audience, albeit under hostile circumstances. A better question might be, "Why don't liberal Democrats participate in a debate with Rush Limbaugh as the moderator?"
Republicans have met liberal Democrats on their own rigged turf and still wipe the floor with them when it comes to ideas that are best for a people who love freedom, smaller government, truth, and general moral rectitude.
“Don’t let her read her poetry!”
“Vogon poetry is, of course, the third worst in the universe. The second worst is that of the Azgoths of Kria. During a recitation by their poet-master, Grunthos the Flatulent, of his poem ‘Ode to a Small Lump Of Green Putty I Found In My Armpit One Midsummer Morning’, four of his audience died of internal haemorrhaging, and the president of the Mid-Galactic Arts Nobbling Council survived by gnawing one of his own legs off. Grunthos was reported to have been “disappointed” by the poem’s reception, and was about to embark on a reading of his twelve - book epic entitled ‘My Favourite Bath-time Gurgles’, when his own major intestine, in a desperate attempt to save humanity, leapt straight up through his neck, and throttled his brain. The very worst poetry of all perished along with its creator, Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings of Greenbridge, in the destruction of the planet Earth.”
If she tries, perhaps her “own major intestine, in a desperate attempt to save humanity, (might) leap(t) straight up through his (her) neck, and throttled his (her) brain.
Given their relative differences in size and strength due to frequency of use, I believe that her own major intestine might just be up to the task.
HOORAY Mitt for bringing up F&F! The liars on Libya and Fast & Furious. Direct attacks on the first 2 amendments. Tactics of totalitarians and their propagandists.
On C-Span, a running total for speaking time was displayed at the bottom of the screen, and, in the end, Obama received about 3-4 minutes more of speaking time than Romney.
Candy?!? (You know that you've been warned not to let him go there!)
The video should be reviewed in great detail looking for this:
did zero have the questions in advance ?
I only saw a few barfy minutes of it, but IMHO, bozo came across as though he had thought about his answers to the questions beforehand.
It would not take much for Ol’ Crowly to zip off a copy to someone who sent them to someone, etc., as soon as she decided on them.
I don’t know when (for a fact, not a guess) when Crow received the questions to select from.
Maybe I’ll look for this for a few minutes.
This illustrated the role of the State Owned Media that has covered up Zer0’s failed presidency with a candy coating.
bump
I noticed that everytime Romney started to sound good or really point out something bad about BO, BO would start stammering and interrupting and calling for Candy. She would the oblige and shut Mitt down.
Maybe Univision will come through for the truth again. They are extremely left wing, but they were angry about the murder of so many innocent Mexican citizens. Let's hope this sets the lousy POS back among Hispanic voters by a LOT!
COLLUSION
Cowly is very nice looking.
Who’s the ugly cow on the left?
So, let me get this right.
The “leader” of the free world needs a girl to fend off the big bad Romney?
In a Debate?
Very weak, very weak indeed!
I will second “collusion”
Pleased to meet you, Sirrah!! ‘-)
Listening to the debate with the marked-up transcript in hand makes it pretty obvious that "Candy" from Øbozo -- while Romney was speaking -- was a genuine, pre-arranged "dog whistle" meaning that Crowley should interrupt Romney...
"Collusion" is the mildest term I can come up with to describe that perfidy...
~~~~~~~
Anyone know how we can get this in the hands of Rush or Levin for tomorrow's show prep?
Do you remember the applause at this point?
The audience had been instructed not to applaud during the debate, but applause did happen here.
And guess who initiated it?
FLOTUS did it.
As if FLOTUS would really remember the exact wording of that speech ..... unless the whole lot of them had been discussing that wording directly prior to the debate.
FLOTUS played her part by making it appear the audience was behind Obama.
Anyone know how we can get this in the hands of Rush or Levin for tomorrow's show prep?
I could not agree more. As far as getting in touch with Rush, I think he has 'Premium' site members that can get his attention through his channels. I may be mistaken but I believe that Kaslin is one. I have pinged him to this post.
Listen closely. I have several times. For a brief moment their were 2 or 3 that were clapping. There was only one set of hands that kept on clapping. Those belong to MO.
I would like to say more about it but I really need to shut up.
I couldn’t share the stage with that thing without a few “Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters!”
Candy?!? (You know that you’ve been warned not to let him go there!)
A talented artist should photoshop a picture of Obama in a wife-beater telling Candy to make him a sandwich.
Why do you really need to shut up?
My guess is this scenario was actually role played during debate prep.
