African American Businessman Spends 1M to Urge Blacks to Vote Pro-Life
Cain is my man and Newt is my #2 but I hope Michele can cause CBS a lot of grief over this.
False. Cain did not fund these ads.
“Mr. Cain, who once managed the Godfather’s Pizza chain and ran unsuccessfully for the Senate from Georgia in 2004, said he was not troubled that Mr. Rooney, who is white, is funding ads using black voices who claim to speak on behalf of the black community.”You don’t have a lot of black billionaires who would want to fund something like this,” he said.”

Bachmann should appeal this directly to Ed Rollins.
He raised $1 million for them. Not sure how much he himself gave, but he typically has given $200,000 per cycle, according to records, and PACs do not normally disclose all contributors. However you slice it, Bachmann is way off base in calling Cain "pro-choice", especially on video following Mittens, whose mother gave a ton to Planned Parenthood, and who was pro-choice most of his career. Cain has never been anything but. She should withdraw the ad.
There’s no indications that Cain himself gave money to America’s Pac, which was the source of the “$1,000,000” claim. He may have given money to other organizations, but that is irrelevant to this particular claim, which is patently false.
Regardless, Bachmann is off-base by calling Cain “pro-choice”, at least by my definition.
oh please..... would you stop this “Obama supporter” crap? There are 8 candidates. She’s in the second tier. Therefore, she’s not going to get as much attention; thats just how it goes. Whining about it just makes her look small. I’m just trying to picture Ronald Reagan whining about the press. Or whining about ANYTHING. Leaders don’t whine.
“Actually, if you watched the debate, you can see that she was right about this. I read also that an analysis published today showed that in ALL of the debates, the candidate who has been given the most time is Romney. And this is based on counting up the minutes, not on wild claims.”
Exactly. Romney is the go-to guy for the lib media, the guy they want to get the nomination.
More conservative voices, like Bachmann’s, are intentionally frozen out every election cycle.
Bachmann is right to call them on it.
I don’t think that Bachmann has the character or experience to be president. However, that does not mean that I support the idea that the liberal MSM should choose our candidates.

My feeling too. I heard her speak at a Tea Party event a couple of years ago and liked her, but I haven’t been impressed with her since then. However, I think that if she had emerged as a serious contender by the time of the debates, she should have been given a reasonable amount of time. She was actually pretty good the other night...for the minute and a half she got to speak...
I don’t know what the viewership is on these “debates,” which are really not debates but televised group press interviews, or how important it is to the networks to carry them. Do they make any money on this? Probably not much.
The format is not a bad thing in itself, but we have to realize they are not “debates” in any way, shape or form, and figure out what would be a reasonable way for the various candidates to be able to get their messages out, be interesting and informative and not turn it into a stump speech, and fairly distribute the time.
All the more reason for one or two of the candidates to show some PRESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP and start finding better venues for future debates.
What if all the others staged their own debate but didn't invite Romney?
Cain and Gingrich broke from the pack and had their own a week ago.
I liked it so much that I recorded it and posted it on you tube.
Here's my highlights as well as a link to the full show.
That's all I am saying too. The rest is incidental. Romney? A fraud on abortion. But Cain is pro-life, and it is just sad to see her desperation.
Huntsman is at 1% and got more face time than Bachmann or Paul combined.
DUH!!!???
