Crowley Interrupts Romney 28 Times, Obama Just 9
Breitbart ^ | October 17, 2012 | William Bigelow

Posted on 10/17/2012 7:25:33 AM PDT by Smokeyblue

Candy Crowley, who was suspected of being one more liberal moderator in the tank for Barack Obama, was more than just in the tank for him; she dove in and sucked all the water out for him so he could pretend he walked on water.

In the Vice-Presidential debate, Martha Raddatz, no slouch at shilling for the Democratic Party, interrupted Paul Ryan 15 times and Joe Biden only five.

Crowley made Raddatz look like an amateur. She interrupted Obama nine times, (although four of those were when he wouldn’t respect the time limit when discussing assault weapons; he went over his time limit all night long), but when it came to Mitt Romney, she was utterly beyond the pale.

Crowley interrupted Romney 28 times. 28 times. Her desperation to keep Romney from scoring points was so patently obvious that it wasn’t really a surprise when she had her infamous moment: the moment when she interrupted and falsely claimed Romney was incorrect in accusing Obama of refusing to call the Benghazi attack an act of terror.

And even beyond the interruptions, there were numerous instances where Crowley’s obvious partisanship prompted her to treat Romney with great disrespect:

Respectfully -- how could you still be undecided at this late hour? Have you decided that you want four more years of the abuse we've suffered at the hands of The Won? If not, that sounds like a decision to me.

I think "undecided" is code for "I know Obama sucks, but I'm not yet convinced Romney wouldn't suck more."

I think "undecided" is code for "I know Obama sucks, but I'm not yet convinced Romney wouldn't suck more."

I think it may be largely the Bradley Effect:

If I tell you I'm voting for Obama, I'd be lying, and I don't like to lie to people.
If I tell you I'm not gonna vote for that black guy because he's really screwed up this country, I sound like a racist and gosh darn it I don't like to see myself that way.
How about we just say I'm "undecided", hmmmmmmmm?

Crowley and that other lady in the VP debate have made it so that I never want to see a woman moderate a debate ever again.

There's no question that the majority of women are incapable of keeping their opinions to themselves. I never thought I'd be longing to see Diane Sawyer moderate another debate in her unique stoned-out fashion.

Why in the hell aren’t republicans demanding someone like Michael Medved or Dennis Prager be one of the moderators?

I don't even need that, how about just ONE debate moderated by someone from FOX? The same ones who did the primary debates, Wallace, Kelly, Baier, Hume, etc. Hume actually did moderate debates back when he was with ABC. It is ridiculous that FOX is shut out of moderating any of these.

If we remember that Obama also had 3+ minutes more time than Romney, then we can also see her interruptions of a speaker and his thought process as additonal interruptions of time.

If each interruption included even the barest of back and forth, then we could say each was worth 7 to 10 seconds of time.

128 to 280 seconds of interruptions = an additional 2 to 4 minutes less time for Gov. Romney. IOW, Obama had a roughly 4 to 8 minutes additional speaking time.

Wow that was a sad interview...

I think she is definetly eating her 6-11 servings of grains and starches a day....

I also think her body is screaming at her for protein, which is why she misinterprets these signals for hunger for veggies...

It is really kind of sad...

Why the Republicans agree to this shit[Leftist Democrat biased moderators] is beyoud me. But then again, it is beyond me 90% of the things Republicans do. So I guess one more won’t matter one way or the other. And until proven different, I still maintain that the Elite Republicans want obama to win.

Crowley Interrupts Romney 28 Times, Obama Just 9

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In addition to this, we also have - in both debates - a time advantage for Obama for what? 6 minutes? Seven?

Next we add in Crow’s pre-planned attack to assist Obama in his lie that he called Benghazi a terrorist attack that day in the Rose Garden.

What else?

By God, if Romney wants to be taken seriously, he will set the stage in Debate # 3 with Bob Scheiffer by letting him know that - based on all these previous biased inequities - he will dominate this debate by sepaking - uninteruppted - as long as he wants to on the subjects he wants to.

Fair is fair.

Candy Crowley, Obama's Human Tele-Prompter.

Question: It seem to me that Obama knew Candy had the transcript of his Rose Garden speach, "Read the Transcript" he stated. ...knew the question ahead of time?

I think you are reading the post incorrectly. I took it as, I am not mentally deficient and I am not undecided.

Obama said last night that he would spend the $$$ saved in the ending of the Iraq and Afghan wars on roads-bridges-etc. The man doesn’t even know how to spell BUDGET!!!

He has never gotten a budget of his thru Congress- they voted unanimously AGAINST him.

I didn’t hear one single word about him being willing to use that money savings to PAY DOWN THE DEBT he ran up. I didn’t hear anything about him being willing to STOP THE SPENDING SPREE he has been doing. I didn’t hear one single word about him being willing to more closely vet the ‘GREEN ENERGY INVESTMENTS’ he wants to make. IMO, his Green Energy ‘investments’ are mothing more than money laundering. Somewhere in that distribution of tax money there is a bank account with Obama’s name on it.

I didn’t hear one single thing that sounded like fiscal restraint or reform. I only heard tax-—Tax—TAX over and over again.

Obama’s idea of ‘just a little more’ is a complete joke.

“JUST A LITTLE MORE”??? These words from 1/2 of a couple who have spent money like they were entitled to it—an apology tour of the Middle East which emboldens radicals who hate the Western World—vacations—’date nights’ involving flying Air Force One to New York & dining at the most expensive restaurants and then staying at the most expensive New York hotels and getting multiple orders of steak & Maine lobster for room service——off to Hawaii with a large retinue—Spain vacation with an even larger retinue—a staff for Michelle in the White House which is 4 times what Laura Bush had—their daughter going to Mexico for Spring Break with a large group of SS agents (She’s only 14)—eating Kobe beef in the White House!!!!!

Don’t we have enough cattle growers in the USA?? Obama is shipping that particular job overseas, isn’t he? How many ways can he insult American ranchers?

He has authorized payments to ‘farmers’ who never owned a plow or a tractor.

He has sent money to Palestine. Who authorized that?

He lives (& will die) by his Executive Orders.

Congress is supposed to REPRESENT the American people who voted for them. Obama bypasses them at every whim.

He cannot claim any bi-partisanship when Obamacare was voted against by Republicans in record numbers.

That legislation alone will kill American jobs. Doctors & other medical people will leave the profession & are already doing so. Businesses will shut down or become strictly Mom & Pop with no employees.
