CNN Presents Unfair Debate To Paul, Huckabee In California Connie
Talk In Simi Valley, California, tonight, a terrible mess was made. CNN broadcast a debate for the remaining Republican candidates: Mike Huckabee, John McCain, Ron Paul, and Mitt Romney. And during that debate, a 90-minute spectacle worse than the censorship Huckabee and Paul saw on MSNBC, Mitt Romney was given 17 questions. John McCain was given 15 questions. Mike Huckabee was given 11 questions. And Ron Paul was given 5 questions, and two half-questions from which he was cut off, for a total of 6. It started off a little something like this. Anderson Cooper began the debate by saying, "The first question is actually a question that will go to all of you, but I'll start with Governor Romney." And that pretty much spoke the gist of the entire debate. Though Anderson presented it as if he were giving Romney a
hard time, the debate ended up like a trashy daytime TV talk show, with
Romney and McCain on center stage, arguing with each other about little
details like who said what about one another. Romney, McCain, Romney,
McCain, Romney McCain. It is all CNN panelists knew how to say. We are going to be the anti-CNN and attempt to recap this debate for you allotting equal speaking times to each candidate. It would not, of course, be complete without our sarcastic commentary: but, hey, we gave everyone a fair shot and watched the whole damned thing. These are organized by topic, since some people were skipped,
then readdressed (then skipped, skipped, skipped, then readdressed) -
not in order by time.
