........“I heard the president speak at the time. I, sort of, reread a lot of stuff about Libya because I knew we’d probably get a Libya question so I kind of wanted to be up on it,” said Crowley. “I knew that the president had said, you know, these acts of terror won’t stand. Or, whatever the whole quote was.”

“Right after that I did turn around and say, but you’re totally correct that they spent two weeks telling us this was about a tape and that that there was this riot outside the Benghazi consulate which there wasn’t,” Crowley added.

“He was right in the main, I just think he picked the wrong word,” Crowley concluded. She went on to say that her instinct forced her to correct Romney even though his “thrust” was correct."........... VIDEO

Obama’s debate cheerleader!

“.................Responding to Crowley’s intervention, Obama said: ‘Candy, could you say that a little louder?’ That tense moment saw the audience burst into a round of applause - despite rules meant to restrict any displays of partisanship from the crowd.....”

If the O team wanted Crowley , Romney should have insisted on

Jeeze, it’s not like Crowley was going to stick to just facts or anything was it?

Facts could destroy the Kenyan, so they must be obfuscated. Candy’s just doing her job. As we all knew she would.

Quoting your source further (author is an associate at Media Research Center),

Crowley, who had come under criticism from both sides prior to the debate, also cut off Romney when he was making a point about the president’s "Fast and Furious" gun scandal. And, as in the other two debates, the moderators let the Democratic candidate dominate the clock. This time, according to CNN’s own tally Obama won 44 minutes and 4 seconds to a mere 40 minutes and 50 seconds for Romney.


This is just grossly scandalous. How can we have a fair election with one side's elbow in the scales? The real story of this election will be the backstairs maneuvering by Team Stalin to put their apparatchik in the moderator's chair.

This could end up biting them pretty bad.

For every person that watched the debate, there are probably six more who didn’t watch, and who’s whole information understanding will come from the talking heads and politicos.

It is already emerging that Zero basically lied and she tried to cover for him.

Americans in general are not the greatest political minds on the planet, but they know a snow job when they see it...

Crowley's dirty work didn't help much.

Frank Luntz focus group of mostly of former Obama voters say they now support Mitt Romney

Video Pt. 1 Here

Video Pt. 2 Here

"A Frank Luntz focus group made up mostly of former Obama voters say they now support Mitt Romney."

"Forceful, compassionate, presidential," one participant said.
"Confident and realistic," said another.
"Presidential," another told Luntz.
"Enthusiastic," another reacted.
"Our next president," one man said.
"Dynamo, winner," said one more.

"He's lied about everything. He lied to get elected in 2008, that's why I voted for him.
I bought his bull. And he's lied about everything, he hasn't come through on anything.
And he's been bullsh***ing the public," one member of the focus group said."

At that time the Obama regime was trying to dupe the American public into believing the Benghazi incident was an opportunistc attack originating from a spontaneous demonstration incited by the youtube video and not a planned terrorist attack. Why didn’t Obama use the phrase “acts of terrorism”? I think it’s because “acts of terror” is less precise and would give him more weasel room, but it does sound more governmental than just saying “terrible acts”.

We’re going to get a conservative moderator at the next debate, right?

Right?

Axelrod planted the false thought in Crowley’s head September 30th, 2012.

“White House officials are now insisting that President Barack Obama has always treated the Sept. 11 strike in Benghazi, Libya as a terrorist attack by jihadis.

“Well, first of all, Candy, as you know, the president called it an act of terror the day after it happened,” President Barack Obama’s chief campaign strategist David Axelrod told CNN’s Candy Crowley Sept. 30.

The new pitch is the administration’s third effort to spin the shocking Sept. 11 attack, threatening to discredit President Barack Obama’s campaign-trail claim to foreign policy competence.:

I know I've been ill, but how did I miss... Candy's true feelings in last night's extravaganza?

Look, Governor Romney, I cannot express this more clearly... If I am to throw this debate to President Obama, you need to sit down and shut the eF up!

She also emphasized that each point she made also generated applause from one half of the audience,then the other.

Candy you stupid cow, the debate was not about you! The moderator should be almost invisible and barely heard from. When will the GOP learn that debates such as these are lose-lose propositions for them?

Romney must be smiling at his fortune.

His two major goals were catapulted along last night with Obama’s Benghazi lie and Crowley’s support of the lie.

Romney’s two campaign goals are:

1. Defeat Obama.
2. Discredit the drive by media.
