*** UPDATED***

Last night I posted an update to the Romney/Ryan joint 60 minutes interview with a portion on Medicare that wasn’t aired during the show. In case you missed it I’ll repost it below:

Hmmmm...I thought the interview was short!

“In the interview Ryan says (via Fox Nation):

BOB SCHIEFFER: You’re going to have to see– you’re going to have to do a little selling.

PAUL RYAN: My mom is a Medicare senior in Florida. Our point is we need to preserve their benefits, because government made promises to them that they’ve organized their retirements around. In order to make sure we can do that, you must reform it for those of us who are younger. And we think these reforms are good reforms, that have bipartisan origins. They started from the Clinton commission in the late ’90s.

It’s a little hard to hear Ryan say “My mom is a Medicare senior in Florida” because Schieffer is taking at the same time, but that’s indeed what he says. Why would CBS cut this out of the interview ? Is it because, as Fox Nation suggests, that it’s an crucial to the Democrat attack on Ryan, that he wants to “end Medicare as we know it?”

This should have been on TV and it’s shameful that CBS didn’t air it live. Once again it looks like the liberal media is trying to protect Obama and the left by not giving the Republican argument a sufficient voice.

Ugh.”

IT’s TIME AGAIN to hit CBS with our outcries about their tampering with interviews...editing OUT material they find threatening to oboma. CALL CBS...tell everyone you know what they did...is the interview with Ryan on Fox Nation available?

The part they edited out is at the link I gave you. The part they broadcast is on the 60 minutes site I am sure.

[my small voice]

Sedition, sedition, sedition......

[manc]

maybe all sites like this and talk radio needs to get united and have a massive mailing, and calling program so once the media lies which is every day then that lie is responded to and the media is called out whilst the GOP might get some balls for once and they call up the network and call them out and then call them out on live TV.

I'm sick of this media and that goes for FOX picking who is to win based on their lies, This is how we got Romney and obama

They posted the portion that you pointed out on their website. Damage control?

Sleazy selective editing.

Good idea...let’s send it to the RNC and Romney and Ryan...see if there are any takers.

Hope Ryan does an ad with his retiree mother with lots of hugs and smooches.
