Here's what you're looking for. It slipped my mind.
 

Talk About Planted Questions!!

(...)

CNN rolled out a Catherine Jackson to ask a question about Iran given that her son served three tours in Iraq.

Now when have I heard that before? How about in May. Thank you Harry Reid.

"My son was in Iraq three times," said Catherine Jackson of Las Vegas. "I thank God he's home now. Enough is enough. We need to bring our troops home." Reid spokesman Jon Summers said Move America Forward was mischaracterizing Reid's position. "It's their right to make their feelings known, but most Nevadans agree with Senator Reid that it's time to change course in Iraq," he said.

RUSH: Okay, so we were told these were registered independent voters, and there has been a question about plants in Hillary campaign appearances. This woman's name is Catherine Jackson, and it turns out she's been in the news before. I'm holding here in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers a printed copy of the Las Vegas Review-Journal newspaper from May 18th of this year, and headline of the story: "'Protesters Employ Monkey to Decry Harry Reid's Iraq Stance. Group includes woman whose son was killed in war' -- With a sleepy monkey in a camouflage outfit and white handkerchiefs on flagpoles, a small group of pro-war activists Thursday gathered outside the federal courthouse that houses Senate majority leader Harry Reid's Las Vegas office decrying what they said was a policy of surrender. The anti-Reid demonstration was organized by a national group, Move America Forward, most of the protesters were from out of town."

At any rate, one of the people that showed up here in the anti-war part of the protest was, in fact, Catherine Jackson who got into this debate last night. She's a Las Vegas resident; she's obviously an activist, and she got in there last night. Do you think it's a coincidence that a huge anti-war protester who is a mother of a son who served three tours there got in? Do you think it's a coincidence she got into this debate last night? Of course, it's not a coincidence. So CNN clearly the Clinton News Network last night. There's no question about it.
