Well, of course they misquoted him. That is what they do. They misquote to make conservatives look bad, and misquote to make leftists look “good”. Their agenda right now is to engage the conservative circular firing squad. They won’t stop this incendiary “reporting” until Jebbie is the only one left standing.
I expect nothing less from the MSM.
Sadly, what they do seems to work. :^(
“You backed the wrong horse.”
Norm, You are the backside of a very wrong horse.
opinions vary.
This dcrap is going to happen all the time. We better make sure we know what the person really said and try to not jump on any candidate who is being piled on at the time.
The MSM, Democrats and RINOs are all blatant liars.
And every election the nitwit wing of the Conservatives cry like little bitc#es when the Perfect Candidate doesn’t get nominated, so they take their ball and run home crying to mama, screaming “I’ll show you!! I’ll show you!!!!”
FReepers are hating on Trump, but the reason why Trump is where he is, is that he's controlling the message. He's rejecting the liberal narrative and premises. This is what Walker needs to start doing. Start issuing "no comments" answers to these ridiculous questions and starting talking about the real issues facing this country.
I love Walker, I am here in WI, but unfortunately Walker is running a by-the-numbers, conventional type of campaign. THAT IS NOT GOING TO CUT IT IN 2016.
Given a choice between Cruz and Walker...
I like Cruz better, but Walker is more electable...
I could sleep well at night if either man won...
Hears the deal. You can join us in backing a conservative or lose. Trump isn’t getting in, Walker isn’t getting in and neither are the rest of the RINOS.
If that means Hillary, so be it. your call. We have the votes to determine who loses. Ask Mitt. Your choice.
The only way to avoid this then is to never talk to anyone because you fear that they will misquote you and/or twist what you said, or lie by omission.
Then they win.
Who died and put you in charge?
Scott Walker has said that he doesn’t really care about campaigning on social issues. He said as President his focus would be on economic and fiscal issues. I know that some people are happy with that, but I’m not.
I don’t think Walker is well rounded enough or smart enough to handle all the issues a President must address daily. We need someone who can speak easily off the cuff on any issue. I would not trust him with foreign policy and diplomacy at all.
Doesn’t matter. There are lots of ‘me’s in charge with our votes. Ask mitt.
Then vote for a conservative or lose.
Why are we surprised? Why does anyone want to watch CNN anyway unless you’re stuck at an airport?
The fact is no one knows the answer to that question for sure (though some imagine they know). Also, I strongly suspect that its a different answer for different people.
So....IDK is a good response.
Walker is answering to GOP ‘handlers’ now...just another ESTABLISHMENT type. Thankfully we have Trump running to put an end to that.
Your stance is just so very old, weak, tired, annoying, and in the end, sad and pathetic.
So take your ball and go home. Good luck with President Hillary. Thanks to you.
With all due respect, it has nothing to do with "avoiding the media."
It's all about controlling the message. It's about rejecting the liberal narrative.
This question is by design was asked to make it appear that Walker hates gays and Republicans hates gays by association. What Walker should have said is "This is not a pertinent issue for me. I am more concerned about the President's disastrous Iranian agreement and the ongoing threat of Islamic terrorism here at home."
DON'T PLAY THE MEDIA'S GAME.
Hope you enjoy the new Justices appointed by Larda$$.
