Who listened to Debra Medina on Beck and came away disgusted. She basically admitted that she is a 911 Truther.
Her run has ended
When asked point blank if she believes the Feds had a hand in the 9-11 attacks, she would not say “NO”. She said she did not have enough information, and that the Truthers had presented some good evidence. She has the same position as Van Jones.
In terms of the Texas election, her belief system has been shown to be f’d up, and her intelligence can now be questioned for being stupid enough to say it on national radio. Bill White would orgasm primary night if she came out on top for the “R’s”. FYI, I was going to VOTE FOR HER until about 10:15 AM this morning after PERSONALLY hearing her answer (and tuning in hoping to hear a great interview to get her past KBH).
So, man up (like I had to) and admit she’s not the person for the job.
LOL.
They're freakin' out over it on Twitter as well. Just damn.
>> Perry and KBH are even more ridiculous in their hypocrisy. Id almost rather have a person that totally distrusts government than two who lie openly about their true intentions.
I’m not sure either Perry or Hutchinson are “more ridiculous” in anything than someone who wouldn’t instinctually laughingly disavow trutherism.
I suppose ‘almost’ would be the operative word there, though. A hypcrite with at least some grip on reality is better than a rubber-room libertarian.

Yes, you’re right. Rick is better than Kay, but that ain’t sayin much because Kay ain’t very good. And neither is Rick.
If by now you are at the point of thinking you can run a major state, but you aren’t sure whether 9/11 was an inside job, you might be not ready for the job.
I was just saying that we are down to one choice, not two. It will be Perry.
Ahhh..., I see... :-) And yes, that sounds right.
Better to know now than on Nov. 5th. Btw~ Mark Davis just reported on this and said its a big problem. He is offering her advice on how to backtrack...lol!
“Seriously? Rick Perry it is, then.”
Copy, SnakeDoc - a little pitiful that that’s the choice with which we’re left. I just saw a sign for Lyle Larson, who’s running for State Rep from San Antonio. I wonder if he could be convinced to run for governor next time out...no baggage as far as I know, and he was a good County Commissioner and city council member for years.

That's because they just jumped on a bandwagon without checking on the person themselves. I love the tea party but we have a responsibility to vote intelligently, with knowledge, not just anybody that shows up.

Ahhh... so very true... LOL...
She has lost my vote in the Republican Primary. I will now probably vore for Perry, ... Again ... *sigh*
“Did she say Truther or Birther?”
Not much difference. Truthers are nut jobs on the Left, Birthers are nut jobs on the right. Both are doing their best to keep their sides from prevailing.
Flame away, nutters.
Listening to the Medina interview again, she didn’t say she was a Truther. But to me, it seems she may have some around her who are ... and it’s DAMN HARD to find volunteers 9 months before a November general election.
It sounds to me that she still needs to figure this one out. I’m waiting to hear what she says at the Tea Party rally on Saturday.
The audio will be posted shortly. You can judge for yourself when you re-hear it ...
She was not a pleasant woman.
She steamrolled her answers in a prepared talking points way and seemed to not want Beck to get into the conversation...
The truther denial? She said she had NOT heard that accusation before. It did not ring true when she seemed to read a prepared answer to that!
Beck and the staff were so overwhelmed, choking with laughter, that they made comments about having to “LOVE” the other candidate...it was all a joke and to cover for their astonishment over how bad she really was.
Davis is another libertarian at heart. How they all hoped to keep this a secret from the voters of TX. Thank goodness for Beck.
These people are out for themselves, for their own interest and that of their buddies.
I was at least hoping that Medina could carry a message that there are hundreds of thousands of folks wanting change.
Medina doesn't have a chance to beat an incumbent, but I was hoping she could pull enough votes in the primary to blow KBH out of the race.....what a message that would send!!
If this latest “truther” thing did indeed happen on Becks program......She’z done.
Well I was going to vote for her, but not now. Thanks for the info, I’ll verify it once I get DSL back, just to be sure.
