“You mean your Christian faith...” - Stephanopoulos
Katie Couric purred in a sycophantic Obama interview with hard hitting questions like this:
You're so confident Mr. President, and so focused. Is your confidence ever shaken? Do you ever wake up and say "damn, this is hard. Oh yes, a little to the left, oh that's it, harder . . ."
How else could Obozo tell Candy to "Get the Transcript" when Romney was telling us Obama didn't call it a terrorist attack until 14 day later......hhhhhmmmmmmmm?
Remarkable, isn’t it, how Candy happened to have that particular document right at her finger-tips and how Zero knew to ask for it?
It was a thrill UP his leg. On Nov. 6 there will be something going down Chrissy's leg, though. And it won't be a thrill.
Who better to tip the scales than Candy Girl?
The Scripted Setup?
It is a shame that we have become so suspicious of our media but it is not without good reason. As you read the transcript below from the Hofstra University Presidential debate moderated by CNN’s Candy Crowley, as yourself if this was a scripted setup by the media and our President to bait Mitt Romney. It appears the words were chosen wisely by the President and Crowley just happened to have the transcript of his Rose Garden speech at her finger tips. Furthermore, pay attention to how the President says ‘get the transcript’ and note when the applause occurs.
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT:
CROWLEY: Because we’re — we’re closing in, I want to still get a lot of people in. I want to ask you something, Mr. President, and then have the governor just quickly.
Your secretary of state, as I’m sure you know, has said that she takes full responsibility for the attack on the diplomatic mission in Benghazi. Does the buck stop with your secretary of state as far as what went on here?
OBAMA: Secretary Clinton has done an extraordinary job. But she works for me. I’m the president and I’m always responsible, and that’s why nobody’s more interested in finding out exactly what happened than I do.
The day after the attack, governor, I stood in the Rose Garden and I told the American people in the world that we are going to find out exactly what happened. That this was an act of terror and I also said that we’re going to hunt down those who committed this crime.
And then a few days later, I was there greeting the caskets coming into Andrews Air Force Base and grieving with the families.
And the suggestion that anybody in my team, whether the Secretary of State, our U.N. Ambassador, anybody on my team would play politics or mislead when we’ve lost four of our own, governor, is offensive. That’s not what we do. That’s not what I do as president, that’s not what I do as Commander in Chief.
CROWLEY: Governor, if you want to...
ROMNEY: Yes, I — I...
CROWLEY: ... quickly to this please.
ROMNEY: I — I think interesting the president just said something which — which is that on the day after the attack he went into the Rose Garden and said that this was an act of terror.
OBAMA: That’s what I said. (Stated with confidence)
ROMNEY: You said in the Rose Garden the day after the attack, it was an act of terror. It was not a spontaneous demonstration, is that what you’re saying?
OBAMA: Please proceed governor. (Stated with a smile)
ROMNEY: I want to make sure we get that for the record because it took the president 14 days before he called the attack in Benghazi an act of terror.
OBAMA: Get the transcript.
CROWLEY: It — it — it — he did in fact, sir. So let me — let me call it an act of terror... (She is looking at a transcript from the Rose Garden speech - really, what are the chances)
OBAMA: Can you say that a little louder, Candy? (This coming from a man who always travels with a TelePrompTer - it’s starting to seem a little scripted)
CROWLEY: He — he did call it an act of terror. (Loud applause from the rear of the auditorium - which included the press and the First Lady. Note that due to the applause, the next part of Crowley’s statement was not heard.) It did as well take — it did as well take two weeks or so for the whole idea there being a riot out there about this tape to come out. You are correct about that.
ROMNEY: This — the administration — the administration indicated this was a reaction to a video and was a spontaneous reaction.
CROWLEY: It did.
ROMNEY: It took them a long time to say this was a terrorist act by a terrorist group. And to suggest — am I incorrect in that regard, on Sunday, the — your secretary —
OBAMA: Candy? (The President is asking for help from the moderator)
ROMNEY: Excuse me. The ambassador of the United Nations went on the Sunday television shows and spoke about how —
OBAMA: Candy, I’m — (Again - the President is asking for help from the moderator)
ROMNEY: — this was a spontaneous —
CROWLEY: Mr. President, let me —
OBAMA: I’m happy to have a longer conversation —
CROWLEY: I know you —
OBAMA: — about foreign policy.
CROWLEY: Absolutely. But I want to — I want to move you on and also — (The moderator now changes the subject)
OBAMA: OK. I’m happy to do that, too.
CROWLEY: — the transcripts and —
OBAMA: I just want to make sure that —
CROWLEY: — figure out what we —
OBAMA: — all of these wonderful folks are going to have a chance to get some of their questions answered.
This author actually expects the media to revolt against their boy? Never happen. For that would require some slight bit of shame and one thing leftists lack completely is shame. Otherwise, they couldn’t be leftists!
Leftist members of the MSM will ALWAYS be shameless hypocrites. It is simply the definition of a leftist!
I respect Mr. Lord, but Crowley is not the issue. The entire debate was a carefully produced charade controlled by the Obama Campaign.
Her “tipping point” is quite a “weighty” issue. A REAL ponderous subject.
COW TIPPING
How appropriate!
Obama hid behind Candy's more than ample skirt ... And she encouraged it.
So much for that 'feminism claptrap... Candy WAS the little woman behind her man. Well, maybe not so little...
That said, Obama also hid behind Hillary's skirt and Rice's skirt. Maybe that's how dem's 'man up'. They find some ball-buster and hide behind her. But like the proverbial street gang the MSM bravely have 10 members beat up one lone citizen. The MSM knows how to play dirty and get away with it. Yeah, we're impressed CNN. /s

the collusion between the Obama Campaign and Crowley was very obvious. It was a dishonest event.
The upside to all of this is that no one can now claim the media isn’t biased in favor of liberals.
Jeffrey Lord misses the main point of the event. Obama said “Get the transcript,” and Crowley complied. Lord seems to think she just decided on her own to interject her comments. Not true.
This was quite clearly pre-arranged, and Obama gave it away with his “Get the transcript” comment.
