It wasnt a FAKE question, it was one derived by staffs of political aides and newswriters. You need to read the whole article ... the young Lady submitted 5 questions one of the 5 was supposed to be a fun question so she submitted the "Diamonds or Pearls" as her fun question. It was not the question she wanted to ask.

RUSH: Okay, so we were told these were registered independent voters, and there has been a question about plants in Hillary campaign appearances. This woman's name is Catherine Jackson, and it turns out she's been in the news before. I'm holding here in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers a printed copy of the Las Vegas Review-Journal newspaper from May 18th of this year, and headline of the story: "'Protesters Employ Monkey to Decry Harry Reid's Iraq Stance. Group includes woman whose son was killed in war' -- With a sleepy monkey in a camouflage outfit and white handkerchiefs on flagpoles, a small group of pro-war activists Thursday gathered outside the federal courthouse that houses Senate majority leader Harry Reid's Las Vegas office decrying what they said was a policy of surrender. The anti-Reid demonstration was organized by a national group, Move America Forward, most of the protesters were from out of town."
At any rate, one of the people that showed up here in the anti-war part of the protest was, in fact, Catherine Jackson who got into this debate last night. She's a Las Vegas resident; she's obviously an activist, and she got in there last night. Do you think it's a coincidence that a huge anti-war protester who is a mother of a son who served three tours there got in? Do you think it's a coincidence she got into this debate last night? Of course, it's not a coincidence. So CNN clearly the Clinton News Network last night. There's no question about it.

Agree completely. I have pointed out, to all my lefty friends, that her “listening tour” was nothing but a scam so she didn’t have to ANSWER any questions. I suppose we can expect the same during her run for the Presidency. I just hope and pray that the majority of the voters aren’t so stupid as to actually vote for her. Although a friend of mine said she had a friend who was going to vote for Hillary! because “why don’t we give her a shot at it”. There are many really stupid voters here!

This is NOT TRUE. Hillary said they do NOT plant questions. Obviously this woman is a drug-using whore who did not serve in Vietnam. Well, enough about Hillary...what about this questioner? (lol)

Only Dennis Kucinich isn’t and his life span on stage is measured in seconds...
Edwards was a Senator, but he won’t need any favors from Hillary, so he is a bit more forward about questioning her past record.
And if people will recall, this debate was supposed to occur on Fox on Nevada, no wonder they canceled/boycotted Fox and went with CNN, it was a home team moderator, one of Hilde’s preconditions for success.

The most telling portion of the whole debate was when Catherine Jackson. The mother of the marine who has lost his courage had a terrible time reading her own question. It seemed as if someone else may have written it. Maybe in some language other than idiot. They sure remembered to use their favorite talking points phrase. Referring to Iraq as a civil war. I would be interested in hearing from other marines who had to serve with her son.

That student should have just gone ahead and asked the real question. What is CNN going to do, have her arrested?

Harry Reid’s son is the head of Hillary’s Nevada state campaign. It’s no coincidence that Hillary got softball questions.

This article names the student as Maria Luisa ... and FNC has her name as Maria Parra-Sandoval. Wonder which one is correct?

from the article.......
I had to explain to her that every question from the audience was pre-planned and censored. Thats what the media does. See, the media chose what they wanted, not what the people or audience really wanted. Thats politics; thats reality.
So few understand what the drive-by media is about, except for FReepers. FReepers know what the drive-by media is and what agenda the drive-by media has. More FReepers (educated people) needed.....
So few understand....(sigh)

“As an aside-unless theres been a secret draft I wasnt aware of-WTF did her son think he was getting involved in when he enlisted?”
Isn’t it amazing how they “just happened” to be in the audience?
I thought Wolf Blitzer looked just like Foster Brooks under those bright lights and the grey beard.
