CNN expunged "don't ask, don't tell" question and answers in rebroadcasts of debate

Anyone who says they saw a gay General asking a debate question is delusional.

Ah, the "delusions" of grander that CNN totes while driving the modern day information highway.

Hunter was just too damn good in response to the charade and, therefore, he must be cut from the airways.

“GOP should not do debates on CNN”

“GOP should not do debates on CNN Television.”

True !...Now back to Fox....That should teach the Repubclucks never again to debate on CNN.Probably made CNN’s ratings go up for a night..Now back to the garbage can for CNN.

ROBERTS: So there's the question, and retired Army Brigadier General Keith Kerr joins me now this morning. We discovered after the debate last night that you are, in fact, a member of Hillary Clinton's Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered steering committee. We did not -- we did a background check, and we found that you have not made any campaign contributions to any candidate. Does that still stand?

Roberts does his best attempt to exonerate the General but only goes on to prove that not only did the General not disclose his conflict of interest, he must have lied about being a Republican.

True !...Now back to Fox...

The Giuliani Network (FOX) is no better than CNN.

The GOP should do all their debates on Radio, or in the alternative, the GOP should buy time from the Networks and produce their own debate.

No more debates controlled by the MSM. And Fox is part of the MSM.

In a related story, CNN reports that we have never been at war with Oceania, we are at war with Eastasia.

CNN's malfeasance is even more unethical beyond belief. This is the lead story headline on Michelle Malkin's site:

Digging out more CNN/YouTube plants: Abortion questioner is declared Edwards supporter (and a slobbering Anderson Cooper fan); Log Cabin Republican questioner is declared Obama supporter; lead toy questioner is a prominent union activist for the Edwards-endorsing United Steelworkers

That makes FOUR PLANTS and counting.

Hunter’s answer was brilliant! I can’t wait until he debates Hillary in person, and not through one of her secret agents!

[xcamel]

The newest version of “Redacted” ?????

[Palladin]

What a bunch of tools! Did they think no one would find out?

CNN gets the 2007 Dan Rather Award for truth and accuracy in media!

No, lie, cheat, distort, DEFEND YOUR BEHAVIOR, and then say it never happened. If it never happened, why defend your behavior? If your behavior was fine, why expunge it?

..too late, the toothpaste is out of the tube...

The sneak attack really made Hunter stand out but you’ll notice that they are barely mentioning Hunter in the reporting of the incident despite the fact that he was the clearly intended target.

I liked Hunter's answer, as well as the others. I think the target of this question, and many of the others, was the Republican Party. Gays in the military? Confederate Flags? Who are they kidding?

[abigailsmybaby]

I’ll bet the general has lied about more than that. If he didn’t come out of the closet until after he retired doesn’t that mean he lied on documents when he entered the service?

[Cementjungle]

What a bunch of tools! Did they think no one would find out?

Worse yet they're still not admitting about all the other "undecided" questioners.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

No, we are now at war with Upper Slobbovia, Middle Slobbovia and Lower Slobbovia, the home of the “Slobic nations”.

While we are at this foolishness, let’s have some more fun.

Re Gen. Kerr:

*What does he really mean when he tells his men to ‘stand at attention.’?

* He went to Command and Staff School. Define “staff”.

* I won’t even touch “Special Forces”.

* Gives new meaning to “I love a man in uniform”.

* Will Hillary make him her Chief of Staff?

I apologize to anyone who I offend with this post, but it just begs for some humor.

Now, about that bear in the Sudan!

As a Fredhead, I’ve got to say, Bravo! Duncan Hunter! on the answer and the Hillary email.

[torchthemummy]

Good point and most assuredly the case if you buy the gay lobby’s assertion that being gay is genetic. If you don’t then the General has disproved one of their #1 defenses.

[GATOR NAVY]

I’ll bet the general has lied about more than that. If he didn’t come out of the closet until after he retired doesn’t that mean he lied on documents when he entered the service?

Most likely yes. I'm pretty sure my original enlistment papers in 1982 still asked if you were queer. And I know pre-don't-ask-don't-tell security clearance checks did.
