What is this CNN, anyway?
I totally agree.
We need to show where they don’t play by the rules, however, there comes a point, or so it seems to me, that we overdo the complaining and what starts out as a completely valid complaint becomes a whine.
Just my opinion.
Cnn admits they stacked debates.
CNN also admitted they lied for Saddam.
In both instances, the damage is already done.
In one, they pushed Hillary/Democrat agenda items to the front of a REPUBLICAN DEBATE.
In the other, American Citizen Soldiers paid for it with thier lives...
In neither case will CNN pay a penalty.

LOL, yes lot’s of troll bait threads here for the last 6 mos!
How about a Free Republic interactive debate.
(not joking actually)
I find it funny that the dems refused to have a debate on FNC, and I’m sure FNC wouldn’t have done anything like CNN did. No republican should ever appear on CNN again, in any way shape or form. They would have good reason not to do so.
Excusing CNN’s complete fraud as, “Oh, well, gosh darn it, everybody should have known it would happen. Hee hee! Let’s just move on, shall we?” is nothing I’d ever “agree with.”
You need to read the rest of the posts on this page before responding.
No-one, including myself is saying that.
The GOP should stage a debate that would be televised on LIVE STREAMING INTERNET - that would upstage ANYTHING in quality that the drive-bys would do and would also kill their ratings in the process ;-).

I’d be willing to bet the Free Republic server, has enough bandwidth...
What Fabozz is getting at is not to complain about the nature of the questions... they were what they were, and we go on with our lives.
BUT, it appears that CNN was fully complicit in an outright fraud, if the questioners were knowingly mis-described as “undecided Republican voters”. That looks very much like completely intentional hogwash, and not just an innocent mistake.
CNN ought not to get a pass on this.
That is pretty much exactly what you said.
This is the second excuse they've tried to float. The first was that the Democrat party planted the questioners. That didn't work so now they're trying this.
I have. Twice.
This is what you said:
“The GOP should stop whining about this and grow up.”
I do not believe people are “whining” about this complete fraud, I believe they are holding CNN’s feet to the fire on it, as they should be.
This was fraud, pure and simple. And for you to characterize those who complain about it as “whining” shows EXACTLY where you stand on the issue.
Indeed.
Fact: The political directors at CNN, Fox and NBC have individually had far more power over this year's Republican presidential primary process than the entire conservative base of the party.
And they wonder why the GOP is called "the stupid party."
So we disagree!
Welcome to FreeRepublic!
Both the CNN Democrat debate and the CNN Republican debate were total shams
Both debates we were told by CNN were to have supposed “undecided voters” of their given party
Both CNN debates in fact had planted left wing/Democratic activists
One can be sold as an “opps” twice is "contempt for the public" pattern
If these two debates were Fox sponsor debates and filled with right wing shills...
It would be the scandal of the century per the rest of the MSM
Head's there would be rolling right and left and...
A congressional investigation would be going on right now to find some way to get them closed down for violating the public trust
