[Clairity]

CNN and the Tea Party Express, along with more than 100 local tea party groups from every state across the country, will team up Monday, September 12 to present a first-of-its-kind debate from the site of the 2012 Republican National Convention: Tampa, Florida. Eight Republican presidential contenders will face questions from moderator and lead political anchor Wolf Blitzer during the two-hour event, which will air live on CNN from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. from the Florida State Fairgrounds. The debate will focus on a wide-range of topics, including the role, size and scope of government, with a specific emphasis on issue number one to tea party members and all Americans: the economy.

I agree with the Tea Party principles but when Tea Party Express stops spamming my inbox with hundreds and hundreds of emails, I might take the organization seriously.

Are they picking on me personally or are they spamming everybody that way?

I hope there’s tea partiers outside protesting CNN.

CNN.Tea party? Did ya ever think you would see this?It was not long ago the tea party was reported by them to be fake astro turf, nazi freaks.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

no and they won’t admit out loud that MSNBC got high ratings during the GOP debate then lost the ratings boost when Maddow came on.I for one am glad Newt will be there to stop they’re foul play questions.If Newt does nothing else this is serving his country well.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

why? They would be better serving to go in and ask questions being that they are on the marquee.Keep your enemies close.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

No, CNN/Tea Party Express.CNN wants just ONE night of good ratings plus they want to fry Perry but Newt and Perry won’t let them.

[magritte]

It’s a debate for candidates only.

[dforest]

They like Huntsman and Santorum because they have no chance of winning and they take good time from others.

That said, it might be fun to watch McCotter in a debate.

I just got an advance leak of the questions Wolf will be asking:

1. Tea Party members are as racist as the KKK. Can you elaborate on why that is?
2. It's obvious that the only objection to Obama is the fact that he's colored. Can you explain this phenomenon?
3. Can you tell us why you substitute the words "Respecting the Constitution" for "Crushing Minorities and Women", when it is is obvious you mean the latter?
4. Capitalism is another method used to oppress minorities. Would you like to expound on why Communism is vastly superior to Capitalism in every way?
5. U mad bro? Y u mad?
6. Obama single-handedly saved our economy. Would you like to expound on how you would even get CLOSE to his greatness?
7. Why are you such haters, in the Tea Party? Haven't you ever sought therapeutic treatment for your deranged hate?
8. The Teamsters have recently said that they intend to line up in squads and start killing Tea Party members. Why do you, in the Tea Party, motivate (and thusly cause) this violence? Have you no shame at all?

Look for Rick Perry to do better this time. He was, evidently, not prepared very well for the last debate and was blind-sided by the left leaning moderators and even by Mitt Romney: "The governor of Texas before you created more jobs in Texas than you've created Governor."
That was the beginning of a pretty bad night for Rick Perry.

LOL!! That is funny!

OK Freepers, don’t get your panties in a wad. Only political junkies will be watching this Debate. I mean, people are going to give up Monday Night Football for this??? I DON’T THINK SO!!!

[WVNan]

Nope. I just got this crazy idea that maybe CNN is pushing Sarah for some reason. They began to say nice things about her after the Iowa fair. They are running her speeches. They are co-hosting a Tea Party debate......just wondering.

[WVNan]

I know, but I’m keeping an eye on that radio program in AK this week. Sarah was invited. Wouldn’t I love to see her walk out on the stage and say “I am announcing my run for the presidency of the U.S.A.” She said we can’t miss it.

What is wrong with Conservatives? 1st the Reagan Library goes to MSNBC now Tea part is letting CNN moderate?

How about having Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Glen Beck moderate instead?
