CROWLEY'S FALSE FACT CHECK SAVES PRESIDENT, DERAILS DEBATE
Breitbart.com ^ | 10-16-2012 | John Nolte

Posted on 10/16/2012 8:52:50 PM PDT by bronxville

The lowest and most dishonest part of Crowley's disgraceful "moderation" was when she actually jumped into the debate to take Obama's side when the issue of Benghazi came up. To cover for his and his administration's lying for almost two weeks about the attack coming as the result of a spontaneous protest over a YouTube video, Obama attempted to use as cover the claim that he had called the attack a "terrorist attack" on that very first day during his Rose Garden statement.

Romney correctly disputed that.

Crowley, quite incorrectly, took Obama's side and the crowd exploded.

Here's what Obama said that day:

Candy lied but the crowd of undecided voters errupted in applause to her lie...what was that all about? Did the crowd not see how for 2 weeks the President and Hillary said it was the video?

The hateful Hussein Heads chanced one applause cue, and it needed to be a good one!

A good Hussein Head NEVER needs to remember that long when they trust Big Media!

Good post. AND since the next debate is on foreign policy Romney can hammer Obummer on it again and also highlight the media’s corruption. I think it worked out okay for Romney.

Now, now, let’s not talk down the wonderful “undecided” voters.......especially the “undecided” voter whose question to Romney was about Bush.

Everyone in this house actually laughed when she said that. Undecided? really?

The debate is only remembered for Candy Crowley trying to help Obama by lying about a press conference. The moderator clearly lies and one of the participants encourages her.

GET OUT THERE AND VOTE!

I don’t think he’ll even get a dead cat bounce. He is a nasty piece of work and that came through loud and clear. He’s a lying cheap shot artist and couldn’t have looked and acted more UNpresidential. Romney will answer with a devastating ad on Libya with a clip of candy admitting Obama lied. I thought Romney slamming him on going to Vegas bloodied him up good. I like that Romney was fearless and not intimidated in the least. Romney’s forthcoming ads will finish him off. We need a good one about women. How Obama paid them less. How Obama reduces women to contraceptives and abortions rather than their intelligence and contributions to their families, workforce and society.

The Obama crowd may feel they have “won” the debate — but they have lost the election with their skanky little tricks with Candy. It was so obvious to everyone watching that Obama was made VERRRY uncomfortable when Mitt pressed him and that Obama’s you know what was pulled out of the fire by Candy. My only disappointment with Mitt is that he appeared to have underestimated how far the White House would go with the press to lie and smear. I think he got an education last night!!!

Dear gop,
Who decides to put Republicans in debates that are moderated by liberal lying sos like crowley.

Who makes these decisions, and when are you going to out them as the plants that they are?

Shame on you for helping to stab your own party in the back.

What she did was disgusting and anyone else notice for a second that as soon as she did that we could see Michelle oabma clapping and cheering?

Also the questions which were pciked were a joke, AK 47, woman’s pay but the best bias was the woman who stood up and said she was not hapy wth the last 4 years but it;s not obama’s fault it;s because of overseas and Bush, WTH WAS THAT ABOUT.

Obama never answered one question , not frigging one and he just kept lying about his record , drilling, Libya

Romney was great. Team Crowly-Obama sucked.

Candy was determined to take the spot light. She made it clear before the debate that she was not a “fly on the wall” and would disregard her pledge to stay out of the debate.

She jumped into the debate before then. From the start she simply refused to honor the rules she agreed to.

That was one lopsided debate. Although, I think it will backfire. The Libya segment with Crowley defending 0bama will be what everyone will remember about this debate.
0bama saying, “Say that again Candy”

“how was it that Candy C was SO QUICK to SUPPOSEDLY “KMOW” that Obama had the word “TERROR” in the transcript????”

At the link below she explains (spins) by saying she THOUGHT there might be a question on Libya — WHEN IN FACT SHE PICKED THE QUESTIONS BEFOREHAND, BEFORE THE DEBATE. SHE KNEW!!!.

Another Big Obvious Lie from the Big Pig.

What I want to know is.... how was it that Candy C was SO QUICK to SUPPOSEDLY “KMOW” that Obama had the word “TERROR” in the transcript???? She didnt have time to read the entire transcript while sitting there in the brief time that Romney made his objection?????

Good point.
