In a startling statement today, Republican candidate for governor Debra Medina refused to disavow the allegation that the U.S. government was somehow involved in the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center towers on 9/11.
Medina made the statement during an interview on the Glenn Beck radio program

What are you doing in California? Come home!
I’ll answer:
I’d rather have a half lying perhaps semi-repentant RINO who saw this get close and makes changes, over a Truther Nutter.
Medina had a shot. A real shot. And her 15 minutes of fame she DESTROYED on Beck’s show. Debra beat Debra. Period.
Her denial is BS after-the-fact spin and backpedaling.
Did you even listen to the interview?
3 times. Her denial may be BS in your eyes, but there is NO denying that we have two open borders queens as opponents.
How many did we have here who couldn’t understand why Sarah Palin was backing Perry? How many were done with her because of it? Perry isn’t perfect but of the three , he tops out as best.
Seems to me that Sarah was right. Again
PROOF!?!?
Fine with me. I’ll take an open borders queen over a truther any day. Good people can differ over immigration policy, but good people can’t differ over whether the US government had a hand in 9/11. That’s a line you just don’t ever cross, period.
Beck: Do you believe the government was any way involved with the bringing down of the World Trade Centers on 9/11?
Medina: I don’t have all of the evidence there Glenn, so I don’t, I’m not in a place, i have not been out publically uh questioning that. i think some very good questions have been raised in that regard there’s some very good arguemnts and i think the american people have not seen all the evidence there so i’ve not taken a position on that
Beck: I think the people of America might think that’s a yes.
Medina: I’m not going to take a position where I think good questions have been raised and they’re not answered.
As a veteran and a pro military, patriotic, American, I would love to hear her “very good arguments” defending her truther position.
She evidently thinks that we are capable of such a thing and that repulses me.
Isn’t that one of those queer marches with different signs photoshopped in? < /sarc >
Isnt that one of those queer marches with different signs photoshopped in? < /sarc >
Could be, but you would probably still find Medina back there in the crowd somewhere... LOL...
[... and on a more serious note..., if it were photoshopped, being that it's from Wikipedia, with the number of people that see it, it would have been exposed by now... :-) ...]
Of course. Despite her adamant denial, and lack of proof of her having anything to do with them.
And of course, idiots here can swoon over abortion supporter and gun grabber Scott Brown because “good people” can disagree on the sanctity of a child’s life and the meaning of the 2nd Amendment. Right?
And of course abortion supporter and amnesty queen KBH is OK, because she didn’t botch a question about 911 on Glenn’s show?
And Perry is OK to force his Merck buddy’s worthless vaccines on all Texas Children and to steal people’s land for a Mexican Expressway because good people can disagree on these issues?
Frankly sounds to me you are looking for a reason to support a RINO
For starters look up Debra Medina's column 'Latinos and the GOP'
'Its a shame isnt it, that Republicans continue to ignore Hispanics especially here in Texas?' Debra Medina
'Ignore them', Mrs Medina? Since when? What more do you want? Or shouldn't we ask?
Medina ad:
Who is going to think more about Latino families? Rick Perry, Kay Bailey Hutchison or me, who has a Latino family? (Medinas cultural heritage is German and Bohemian.)
She told a colleague last month in an e-mail. Being married, however, to someone with a Mexican American heritage, I certainly embrace the culture. But before she explained that, she told my colleage, who had asked her whether she considers herself Latina: Id not consider myself anything other than a wife and mother, a nurse and a patriot. I believe we too often get into race when its immaterial.
No, Thanks, Mrs Medina.
She is also running Spanish ads. Hello Mrs.Medina! If they cannot speak English then they have no business voting IMO. When they learn English then let them vote. Assimilate. Learn English. Appreciate all America gives you.
So Im sure she is blowing a lot of hot air just like Obama did just to get elected. Running those ads and saying what she has, tells me the border issue is just a try to get votes for herself.
Medina is about as qualified to be Governor as zero was to be President- want to re-visit how that is working out? She's a Libertarian running on the Republican ticket. She is supported by the Ron Paul worship crowd and she herself has acted in the Ron Paul worship capacity. She has demonstrated a lack of knowledge about Texas law and current ballot initiatives.
No, thanks, Ill stick with ol RINO Perry. Texas has remained in better shape than almost any if not all of the states in the union under Perry's watch. As someone said, 'he's the devil we know'.
The motly crew running for governor is laughable; a MUSLIM, a trecherous RINO woman* (Hutchison) and a woman with questionable loyalties
*Feds Have Built Only 32 Miles of 700 Mile Double-Border Fence Originally Mandated by Congress One reason DHS has been able to do this is an amendment that Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R.-Texas) slipped into an omnibus appropriations bill that Congress passed on December 18, 2007. Hutchisons amendment put a loophole in the fence law that allowed the secretary of Homeland Security not to build the fence Congress had mandated the year before.

LOL, who said anything about abortion? Or Scott Brown? Or Merck?
I’m not looking for a good reason to support a RINO, believe me. Like I said, I’m from California and I’m used to not just RINOs, but full-on radical socialists and communists. So from my experience, a RINO looks pretty damn good compared to what I’ve had to put up with. I’d much rather have a good, principled conservative, but we don’t have that option unfortunately. I’m not going to cry and whine and take my ball and go home, just because I don’t have a perfect candidate to vote for.
From what I’ve read of her other views, Medina sounds like she had a lot of things I could agree with. But the truther stuff just blew all that completely out of the water. I heard her interview, and read her denial. I don’t buy it. If you’re REALLY not a truther, it’s inconceivable to give an answer like she gave to Glenn Beck. The ONLY correct answer to his question would have been “Of course not”, not the mealy-mouthed sputtering she gave. There’s something behind that answer, and it’s ugly and repellent. It was a simple yes or no question, and she gave the wrong answer. Sorry, but with an issue like 9/11 trutherism, you don’t get to give a weasel non-denial denial. To me it’s like she was agnostic over the Holocaust, or whether the earth is flat.
Amazing isn’t it?
I thought he was pretty good on guns for a Massachusetts Senator, he got an A from the NRA and and a freeper said that he got an A+ from Gun Owners of America.
...and how is it that you are privy to such information on the good Gov's intentions? He may be swept into a national leadership position but it will be in the "National Republic of Texas" which I doubt will include your home state of Washington.
Perry said, "Today's comments were an insult to the thousands of Americans who lost loved ones on 9/11 and the military men and women who are overseas protecting our country. President Bush worked tirelessly to protect our nation from additional terrorist attacks and anyone who would suggest 9/11 is a conspiracy involving the Bush administration should be ashamed."
GO get her Rick!
