The issue that people are willing to overlook a truther in office out of pure desperation....
Because you either have a Anti-American Liberal Globalist who wants Open Borders (then masquarades as a “conservative”) like Rick Perry......or you have another Anti-American Liberal Globalist who wants Open Borders, like Kay Barely Hutchinson.
I can see people choosing Medina, even with the Truther elements around her....because the other choices for Texas are 100 times worse
“People that will do the right thing”
Yup. Heard the interview with Medina, and she did equivocate.
Beck’s ‘stance’ on those who question 0bama’s loyalties and dubious background is laughable. Laughable. And obviously controlled by Murdoch, Ailes & the Saudis—and self-preservation. Dobbs was axed for it, after all.
One of the points Beck made about those who agree with governmental involvement in 9/11 was that the 9/11 Commission and others investigated. You can’t be over 15 +/- years old in this country and hold no conviction about what happened on 9/11, so Medina crapped out there. It’s akin to calling WWII “Mr. Roosevelt’s trumped up little war.” However, Beck can’t say people have ‘investigated’ 0bama, now, can he, unless Beck is truly uninformed, or naive? OTH, Lt. Harris found out the hard way.
Odd that Beck thinks the silence on the part of media about those who question 0bama’s background are so very quick to point out that 0bama will silence dissent PERIOD. Even more odd that Beck desires honesty and a restoration of morals and virtues when he blithely skips over legitimate ‘uninvestigated’ concerns that many have.
She also came across as a motormouth wanting to make statements rather than carry on a conversation.
Beck is not silent on the birthers. Where have you been? He says it’s a dead issue.
I remember when Glenn would have some chick on his show that espoused that Middle Eastern men were behind the Oklahoma bombing by McVeigh.....
he really should show a LOT more patience with Birthers.....he really disappointed me with the way he handled that issue.....
Medina may have messed up the answer to the question by attempting to tap dance around it but, IMO, Perry has urinated in our Wheaties more than once.
Medina still looks better than either Kay Bailout Hutchison or Rick (TTC, Giardasil) Perry.
Sorry you had to defend yourself over such an obviously good point. Cheers!
yes she did!
it was like she had a script and was going to get it all out no matter what...
and she didn’t seem to have any passion about what she was saying, it was more like memorized info that she was programmed to repeat....
I don’t like her.....but I did like her property tax stand....and the way she seemed to take on State Rights....
other than that- but I don’t like HER at all..
CHEERS!
;-)
LOL!!
Cheers!
I am having a silver bullet, what are we toasting to?
;-)
Life!
I really like port and cheese. Yea, that is uppity....but I love it!
Beck pretended to be well versed on the BC issue, which he is not. His staments indicated that at best he is misinformed. Had he replied that he didn’t think the issue was important to him and therefore he has not researched it would have be less phony.
Because he misrepresented the facts of the issue and then slamed those who are well versed he is a phony.
If he really believed in “speak the truth to power” he would be speaking about the BC issue.
He he a phony
Well stated....and exact to the point.
Beck has no knowledge of the issue....and pretty much has resorted to SAUL ALINSKY tactics to try and dismiss the Obama Birther issue.
Those who seem so critical of Medina.....are putting their decision based on an interviewer who uses SAUL ALINSKY tactics on those he disagrees with....and leads an organization that is rife of New Age (non-Christian) principles
Would you have been happier if HeyZeus had been the inspiration?
Well put.
If Sarah Palin said what Medina said, I would have a hard time believing that she would have more than a handful of supporters left. I heard the interview. Medina sounded arrogant and annoyed from the git go. A normal candidate would be thrilled at the opportunity to reach out to a nationwide audience as a conduit to campaign contributions. Instead she was combative, dismissive and imo, rude.
port and wine for you....
beer and crackers with cheeze in a can for me...
TO LIFE!
Lechiem!
Why? She had to attribute her wake up call to something, or someone. Most people do. What's wrong with that?
On the other hand, I’ll take weak interview skills over the certainty of being lied to and betrayed by establishment Rs like Perry and KBH. In any event, I think that in our media addled society, Medina lost her chance for a run-off as a result of the interview. KBH and Perry will run hard with it.
What is really scary is that people will still vote for a treasonous Open Borders Liberal like Rick Perry....who believes in seizing private property to redistribute it to foreign companies (the TTC)....or vote for Kay Barley Hucksterson...another Anti-American Open Borders Globalist.
Medina may border on being a truther.....but dismissing her because of an interview with someone who believes that “Birthers are nuts and liberals”...is insane. The interviewer has a LOT MORE BAGGAGE than Medina.....and practices SAUL ALINSKY tactics on many conservatives.
unfortunately, too many on here still value Communism and Totalitarianism over Conservatism and Freedom
I’ve been listening to him. My take is that he says that ‘you don’t need’ the issue.
Then I misunderstood your intent, and I apologize.
What I heard was a Texas Gubernatorial Candidate who literally committed political suicide this morning. I was stunned. I can only imagine any Medina supporters listening were devastated. I would have been. It was a real “There is no Santa” moment. I have no doubt that they were counting on a boost in the polls, instead they were treated to the knowledge that their candidate is a kook. Sobering is an understatement.
I am not a big Beck fan, but I do know that he is a entertainer. Perhaps more than but no less than that. I expect nothing more from him. This is a gig, and I never forget that his angle is to stay on the air. I believe that his passion is real, and he has grown immeasurably since he started. I don’t think he would have blasted her if she hadn’t blown basic candidate questions.
Truly sad for her.
