Watch the entire debate below this post.
NBC debate moderator could not help but begin the program by entering into a statement that suggested Americans blame conservative policies for all the economic problems we are experiencing and insinuated that at the same time, most Americans do not believe President Obama’s policies are as liberal as they should be. Not only is this incorrect, it was also another subtle but blatant editorial opinion being interjected into a conversation by a member of the lamestream media who is suppose to be impartial and non-partisan.
Another very memorable moment in the debate can be seen about 26 minutes into the video of debate that is proveded below this post.
As Politico’s John Harris pursued a line of questioning designed to inflame an internecine ideological debate over healthcare, he through the floor open to Newt Gingrich and said;
“Well I’m frankly not interested in your efforts to get Republicans to fight against eachother…….You’d like to puff this up into some giant thing. The fact here is that every single person up here understands Obamacare is a disaster. It is a disaster procedural, it was rammed through after they lost Teddy Kennedy’s seat in Massachusetts, it was written badly, it was never reconciled, it can’t be implemented, it is killing this economy. And if this President has a concern for working Americans, he’d walk in Thursday night and ask to repeal it because its a monstrosity. Every person up here agrees with that!”……….
At that point the audience broke out into one of the largest round of applauds of the night and once the clapping died down Newt went on to say……….
” And let me just say…since I still have a little time left……….let me just say, I for one….and I hope all of my friends up here —- Are going to repudiate every effort of the news media to get Republicans to fight each other to protect Barack Obama who deserves to be defeated, and all of us are committed as a team……. Whoever the nominee is we are all committed to defeating Barack Obama”
To which the audience again broke out into another round of applause but this was even louder than the last.
It was probably one of the best statements of the night and the most real display of anger offered by any of the candidates on the stage last night. However, it was not enough to propel Newt into the race as an immediate threat to anyone in the front of the field that he trails. But it did renew my appreciation for Gingrich and made me realize that when the election is over, he might just be perfect as the Republican national Committee Chairman or the new President’s Press Secretary.
Beyond that, I again suggest that you see theexcellent analyses provided in the two White House 2012 links above and also that you see the debate by clicking on the link below. It is a good oner that should not be missed.
