At least she’s honest about her dishonesty.

She doesn’t sound very honest to me….”..ya know, he ( meaning Mitt Romney) picked the wrong word! ” Ya, we know, Ms Crowley…….that was just one instance of your bias!
Chuck Moore

Crowley never really never apologized. She said Romney was right but really wrong because Romney used the wrong word. What she should have said is ” If you thought it was an act of terrorism then why did you go on “The View ” and in front of the U.N days later and say it was the video. Just more evidence that CNN is in the tank for Obama.

Look who’s parsing over what she said? Why don’t YOU look at what Obama said the day after in the Rose Garden and YOU will find that he DID say that it was a terrorist act. It IS in the transcripts. Look it up. Candy did say that and she also said that Romney was correct as well. Let’s tell the truth.

  Why don’t you see if you can find the video of his rose garden speach. Because saying something about terrorism during a speech is not the same as calling something specific as an act of terror. I followed this very closely and Romney was correct. This administration kept blaming a video for the demonstration that got out of hand. Seriously??? And it just happened to fall on 9-11-12???? Either President Obama is really gullible or a complete idiot. I’m thinking it isn’t the first choice.

    Why don’t I see? I’m not having the problem believing what Obama said. YOU ARE. It is easy enough to look at the transcripts or look of the video on YouTube. You can see and hear the president in his own words say it.

  What O did in the Rose Garden that day was a generic boilerplate cover his butt response to “acts of terrorism” – not specifically the Benghazi mess. Probably done to copycat Romney’s prior statement. And to undo all that bragging done at the Demo’s convention about putting away Al Queda.
  As for the “truth”, seems it was missing by the time he got to the UN – five mentions of “the video”. (Does he take his orders from Am. Rice?!) He does nothing but duck and weave. Just look at this latest dance just last night – the questioner at the Townhall Debate asked: “Who denied the security for Benghazi and why?”. Simple. Did ya get an answer, Butch1, huh?? Didja? Didja? Or a whole lot of pretty words “signifying nothing”.
  And for Candy girl, now the Empress of “The Gang of Five Hundred”, it is time to sing my favorite little song:
  It’s not the hookers on the street,
  it is the Main stream media beat,
  For they’re down on their knees,
  and eager to please…..

    You can split hairs if you want but he said the very words, period. I think you are having a problem accepting the truth. Romney got it wrong in the debate when he said Obama didn’t say it. One thing Romney was right about was that the information continued to change over the next two weeks. We did not get the correct story during the two weeks because it continued to change as more information came in. If the administration had been smart about it they would have not tried to counter Romney’s taunts for the truth of what happened before they had the information and just waited until the real facts were presented. Romney should not have used it as a political tool and shouldn’t have interfered in this crisis whilst it was still going on which he did. I blame both Romney looking for a political advantage to jump on and the administration for falling for it. They should have known better during a political campaign season not to take the bait.

      If you remember…… even the president of Libya said it was a pre-planned attack with weapons which would not have been available to a common street mob. The real questions should be : why was security withdrawn as of May even though there are email requests on record from Ambassador Chris Stevens and the requests were denied ( admitted at the hearings ) at least twice
      September 11 is a date that appears on the calandar every year. One would think that there would have been more security in place especially on that date … at least let the Marines have bullets for their weapons
      We can only thank God and the New York City police and the undercover teams who prevented the ” student ” who was in America on a student visa from blowing up the Federal Reserve building. Which brings up a very serious point…. with so many Americans who are waiting to get into American colleges and universities, why are these places given to foreign students instead of Americans ?

        You are going off point and arguing semantics. The question that Romney got wrong was simply, Obama did say that it was a terrorist act. Romney was saying that the president didn’t say those words until two weeks later. He was wrong. That is the point. It is very simple. It is in the transcripts. Everyone is trying to read into it what they want but those words were what was said and that is what Romney was stating were NOT said in the Rose Garden the following day.

Mrs Crowley is now branded for her mistake.. This is the only issue she will be known for.

  She is a partisan HACK just like everyone at CNN. They are working harder to get ObaMAO reelected than his campaign.

The truth continues to be the left and media’s biggest problem. They try to deny it doesn’t exists until it blows up in their face. When will they learn?

The hole thing was to make Romney look bad, and obama look good, but no matter what Crowley is a big mouth know nothing in the spot light, and wanted to show she was somebody, well honey forget it your nobody and always will be and the only thing obama did for me was prove he’s a liar.

  But, if Obama wins the election, watch and see the nice apointed job that she gets.The Obama award!
Dwayne Wolski

She should have kept her mouth shut. She sided with the president. She showed her bias instead of being just the moderator she interjected herself into the debate and screwed up Mitt’s valid point. Dear mderators….shut up please.

  Dwayne, you make way too much sense. This is the reason I have no respect for the MSM or this so-called Debate Commission for that matter. It’s as if the GOP candidate not only has to debate his or her Democratic opponent, but the Moderator as well. Totally uncool IMHO.

You did a terrific job Candy, WTG!
rivahmitch

Lying female dog. Upon my return from Vietnam, after watching the MSM cover that war, I began the custom of a celebratory drink every time a member of the MSM was injured or killed. Crowley just demonstrated clearly to me that there’s no reason to change that custom. They’re still protecting the enemy. Semper Fi!

CROWLEY WAS BIASED. I’M WONDERING WHY ALL MODERATORS ARE DEMOCRATS. IT WASN’T FAIR GAME.

Hiding under women’s skirts is a stinky affair from the get-go, but hiding under Candy Crowley’s skirt is beyond the pale. BTW, where did Obama get that high-pitched “b*t*h voice we heard for the first time last night. Quite a change from the deep, sonorous, soporific baritone that’s been Obama’s trademark since he slithered on the national scene that makes him sound like the voice-over in a sleep-aid commercial. Quite a change indeed, but certainly in keeping with the true sodomite b*t*h that he is. But most unpleasant. Obama sounded like a screeching magpie all night long. Gave me a headache.
dirtroad thinker

Crowley, showed what ever American knows that the news media is a joke and doesn’t believe nothing that comes from the media. They have made this bed and now it is working against the democrats and BO. This will be the biggest land slide in American history because there is nothing the media and BO can do to make the American people believe anything they say! BO is a liar and everthing that comes from his mouth is a lie. He is a disgrace to the office of the President and to this country. I will be so glad to see the door hit BO and Micheeeeeeeel in the butt on there way out!

I will NEVER understand WHY the Republicans allow biased, partisan HACKS to “moderate”/SHILL for the Democrats. Do you really think that ObaMAO’s campaign would allow Sean Hannity to moderate?

Barney Frank & Chris Dodd set up the housing crisis beautifully & Bush & the Republicans took the fall while they sat back & laughed their as ses off. Thanks to the Marxist propaganda machine media very few people know or understand what the Democrats did with Fannie & Freddie or about the NUMEROUS & HORRIFYING SCANDALS of this administration.

Does ANYONE remember Obama & Hillary Clinton APOLOGIZING PROFUSELY to the mu slim TERR ORISTS after they SLAU GHTERED FOUR AMERICAN CITIZENS?? ANYONE??
A generic comment about “acts” of terr orism is not the same as calling out the Al Quida TERR ORISTS that MUR DRED our citizens & demanding justice be done. Keep in mind Obama & Clinton helped ARM these Al Quida terr orists in the first place.

CNN … Moderator Choice … FAIL
Crowley was not a moderator she was meddler. An inept woman at the job she was selected to perform and A blow to job equality… FAIL
Crowley was actually worse than Radack, that’s not a commendation for either.
This “Debate” was neither a debate or a town hall format.

Debate rules were not applied and at a town hall meeting the questions are not
pre-chosen by a moderator nor are the people who ask the questions. …. FAIL
The liberal media is a farce.

she should have kept her big mouth shut..she wasn’t in the debate..she was just the moderator and that was a mistake..she should never be involved in anything again.

  should have been fired! Guess I’m regressing…..
nightingayle

who will be the next moderator on the last debate? another biased democrat?
Mike Travis

Gee, what a surprise! A liberal moderator sided with Ovomit rather than staying impartial. The gop is once again kow towing to the libs by allowing them to dictate terms of the debates. Even the questions from the “independent” voters were clearly skewed in favor of Ovomit. When will the gop grow a set of balls??? What a bunch of pathetic wimps. If Romney would only hammer Ovomit with all the crimes he has committed, the race would not even be close.

Ms. Crowley knew that her words would be heard and remembered and her correction at the end was hardly heard. I want to know who chooses these moderators. our of 3 so far two have leaned democratic and they are supposed to be non-partisan. It seems everything attached to OB is phony. How can anyone trust what he says. Frankly, I didn’t think much of OB’s answers and lack of information on his past 3-4 years. As he has said, people who are secretive about things they’re doing have something to hide. That really seems to me he was talking about himself. Watch his face and you can tell he’s lying, he can’t keep looking in his opponents eyes, he wanders, looks down, gets a bored look on the face. Hardly transparent is he? That’s the kind of thing a surly teenage boy would do.

Little to late,we all know how Obama lies,you should of kept your mouth closed.If Obama win the election, he gonna keep lieing to the American people.By the time you have found out what Obama said was a lie, he’s done moved on to another lie.Only thing changes, a new lie.

The Sandy Hook Massacre

The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away:

"Doug Giles and his team over at ClashDaily.com cut through the crap to expose what have become modern day human slaughter houses: gun free zones. Their candid arguments about allowing teachers to protect themselves and the students in their care through concealed carry should be taken seriously. As a result maybe, just maybe, we’ll be able to save some lives someday rather than call the cops to report the body count." - Katie Pavlich. News Editor,Townhall.com and NYT's Best-selling Author, Fast and Furious: Barack Obama's Bloodiest Scandal and Its Shameless Cover-Up

"There were many lessons to draw from the horrific Newtown, CT school shooting. Unfortunately, most of the media and political Left came up with the wrong ones. But not Doug Giles and his writers over at ClashDaily.com. In the wake of this horror, they offered a robust defense of American citizens' right to bear arms and common sense answers to societal violence. The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away is a great resource for those interested in this vital, Constitutional issue." - S.E. Cupp, MSNBC Host and The Blaze Contributor
