Newt: I Won't Participate in Any Debates Moderated By Reporters

"As your nominee, I will not accept debates in the fall in which the reporters are the moderators," Gingrich said at a rally in Pensacola. "We don’t need to have a second Obama person at the debate."

To defeat the enemy, it must first be identified.

Newt is not only right, but in taking this position he is instructing the apolitical middle.

Expect even more furious attacks on Newt from the enemedia.

Obama won't show up in court when summoned by a judge....why should he show up for a debate when summoned by Wolf Blitzer!

Because he needs Wolf Blitzer more than he fears the judge.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

-—Tell him since he’s a Constitutional Law “professor” and attorney that the first debate can be about the Constitution.-—

Lolzapalooza!

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

-—I would just take any question and say, “What you meant to ask me, comrade, is how do I think Obama got his social security number ? Well let’s ask him. And while he is at it, he can show us his college transcripts too.”——

YEEEEESSS!!!!!

(composing self)

ahem, yes.

Look, we have to deal with the underlying reality of the situation. We're being treated unfairly by the MSM - and it's NOT OK. I don't want to rationalize the situation by dreaming up excuses like "we learned something important" or 'became stronger' - - or any of the other things victims use to make life emotionallly tolerable.

We need to deal with this honestly and fight back. The MSM is starting to hear us on many uncomfortable levels...

Five years ago they were clueless - well, beyond Okrent at the New York Times and a few others - but that's not the case today. Some are getting it.... our work must continue - - talking 'truth to brain-dead power' - it's all we've got.

Hey agree with everything you said. It’s not ok.

It is just that if Newt is our nominee, he sure has more fun with the biased MSM ( I call them Stasi stenographers ), and he can make more of his points off of them.

But what do I know? Ann Coulter says that bland wins. That the only time the republicans have beaten an incumbent democrat president was in 1920 and 1980. I don’t know how bland Warren G. Harding was (though he has the record of largest popular vote percentage - 60.3%). But Ronald Reagan? Bland ????

Well, Bleep Bland ! You are right. No more Mr. Nice Guy.
