I agree with you on that.
Me
Bookmark. I’ve got to go to a city committee meeting, so I’m not sure I’ll follow this thread until I can get home and watch the recorded version.
But I may be so data starved that I’ll follow here.
Y’all type fast!
Governor Perry... You have said you don't believe in Evolution, would you like to elaborate further on your belief?
Governor Perry... You once said Texas should succeed from the union, do you still stand by that statement?
Governor Perry... You wrote in your book that you think Social Security is a ponzi scheme, how can you propose to take away the only livelihood of many senior citizens?
These are the type of questions I expect them to try to “get” Perry with tonight. I hope he is ready, because I can't even imagine why he or any of them would agree to go to a debate with MSNBC moderators.
Yes and if they all bring up anything about Obama they will get the buzzer and be asked if it is safe for cows to have flatulance because of GW.Or why they had so many kids.(FEMALE CANDIDATES ONLY) a man could have 48 kids and not be questioned!
Whichever candidate brings up OBAMA’S FAILED GREEN STIMULUS company and the racial violence in WI and the Hoffa thing and fast and furious,and how Obama’s joint session speech will be the same stuff with new dem code words for tax and stimulus gets my vote; unless it’s Romney but he would never bring this stuff up anyway.
NBC's Brian Williams & John F. Harris (Politico) are moderating.
Jonathan Martin (Politico) along with "producers and reporters" worked on the questions.
That's very interesting. My niece did a paper on subliminal marketing in her MBA program, using "American Idol" as her subject. One of the things in her paper was that, on the show "American Idol", if the producers want to get rid of a contestant, they'll use a lot of red on the big projection screen behind them. Something about that causes the viewer to feel less friendly towards the person.
I don't for a minute think these are just random choices by MSNBCs set designers.
I wonder if they will ask WHO IS YOUR HERO? Bush said Jesus.They will wait for Perry to repeat and say he is dubya II.
Thanks.Any hand picked I am sure questions from the net to the candidates?
Paul is this election’s snoopy.
When DC got the quake who didn’t think yeah that’s God’s way of saying the bills no one reads and spending are bad to the greatest nation on earth AND the anti christ or precurser is in the WH and has infiltrated?
The TX wildfires were started by Obama’s NBP’s or SEIU ,would not be socked but I doubt it- or the drought because we could very well be in the end times.Ron Paul will say that the weather is from HAARP to bring America to her knees.
That stage gives me a migraine.They did that on purpose to screw with Bachmann.
Fox News is hosting the one next Monday, I believe. This one is hosted by MSNBC and Politico.
Is that really a woman? She is freaking ugly. Newt is last century, he’s going no where. God, we gotta see her nipples?
Awesome joke and love the element of truth.
I’m sure he’ll tell us. ;)
lol
That much red is used to raise the candidates heart rates, increase anxiety and irritability. It's a cheap tactic by MSNC & Politico hoping to make news rather than present a debate of ideas.
