You are way too kind, my friend; way, way too kind.
Well, that was an ambush if I've ever seen one. It was a question/set up likely given to him by someone who works directly or indirectly for either Perry or Hutchinson. And is looks like Beck is still doing his level best to torpedo her campaign and to be honest, he's probably succeeded. Hutchinson and Perry are going to send out their acolytes to do their dirty work in the media and she'll have to continue defending and defining her position on this. It will be interesting to see what the polls have to say after the fact. My guess is she will drop quite a bit. The good news is, is this is not a national election. Millions probably heard the interview and immediately wrote her off because of Beck and fortunately most of them are outside the state of Texas. The only thing that matters is how Texans viewed this. If the YouTube comments are any indication, Texans like her even more now. I hate this had to come at her expense, but this is a wake up call to those like Medina who are running for office that they'd better be prepared to answer this question and expect ambushes if they get on any national media outlet like Beck in the future. It sounded to me like she was caught off guard by the question, but I thought she answered it pretty well. The only place I hear/see Beck anymore is on YouTube. It's one step forward and 10 steps backward with him. He's had good info about the Fed and he does this. Then I'm reminded why I quit listening to him in the first place. Oh yeah- read the sig line...
"What began in Russia will end in America."- 1930, Elder Ignatius of Harbin, Manchuria.
In 2006 the NYT and CBS conducted a poll about 9/11 and at that time only 16% of Americans believed the government's "official story." www.angus-reid.com/polls/view/13469 Unless things have changed radically, it would appear that the majority of Americans, including Texans, would side with Medina. Beck may have enhanced Medina's popularity not taken away from it. Postscript: Medina's popularity continues to rise even after the Beck show tempest in the teapot. Medina is overtaking Hutchinson. We live in interesting times indeed.
The question wasn't the problem, her answer was the problem.
Mister Clean: The question wasn't the problem, her answer was the problem. Medina's answer was only "a problem" to those who want the rubes to forget nagging unanswered questions about 9/11 as well as their discomfort about the gubment's whitewash official explanation. Medina is running for elected office. She - unlike Hutchison and Hairdo Perry - recognizes that elected office means that she should be RESPONSIVE to the concerns of the electorate and one of those gnawing concerns appears to be that 9/11 needs to be re-investigated. Medina's answer is reflective of the public's discontent with the story presented by gubment. As I noted in msg #70, just 4 years ago when the NYT and CBS did a poll regarding 9/11, only SIXTEEN PERCENT of Americans believed the gubment's official story. Medina's position is in line with the majority of Americans, including Texans. Beck is a flame throwing talking head entertainer. His ratings depend on generating controversy. In this case the controversy Beck created has actually generated good publicity for Medina. Not exactly what Beck had planned on happening, though he has no room to complain because the Medina controversy has also given a boost to his ratings. I don't watch or listen to Beck often. On the occasion I catch him on my car radio, he's actually kind of mesmerizing - like a goofy bowling ball in a china shop. His ratings are high, not because listeners agree with him, but rather because Beck is unpredictable. Medina got herself a ton of free publicity by being a guest on his show and handling herself in poised, direct, no BS manner.
Good for Medina. As I understand this race, anyone of the three who received 50% or more wins outright. Perry is at 45% (+/-). A failure to do 50% places the 1st and 2nd place candidates in a runoff in April. If Medina can beat Hutchison (she's within the margin of error) it's Perry & Medina and lots o' fun for a month :P
{{{applaud}}} and we know Mister Clean is one of those.
Six and a half years after the tragic events of September 11, 2001, many conspiracy theories exist as to what really happened that day. Tonight on the program we welcome Barrie Zwicker, media critic and author of "Towers of Deception: The Media Cover-Up of 9/11." Zwicker is a self-professed 9/11 "truther" and very proud to be part of the 9/11 Truth Movement. Another group that doesn't believe the U.S. government's official report on what happened on 9/11 is the Scholars for 9/11 Truth. Zwicker, and members of these groups, are not few and far between. A piece from The Nation magazine in December 2006 cited a July 2006 poll conducted by Scripps News Service that found that "one-third of Americans think the government either carried out the 9/11 attacks or intentionally allowed them to happen in order to provide a pretext for war in the Middle East." I was suprised to find that so many people believe their own government was responsible for the deaths of thousands of Americans. What makes people question events like 9/11, the Kennedy assassination, and the death of Princess Diana? Are these larger than life events and people not worthy of the explanations of their demise? Is it too far-fetched to believe that a lone gunman could have killed President Kennedy? While I do believe that terrorists were behind the attacks in America on September 11, 2001, conspiracy theories out there - mainly online - force you to ask questions. The Pentagon has released a video of a plane hitting the building. Please watch it. I'd love to know what you think about it. Other online productions such as Zeitgeist and Loose Change have become cult- like success stories. Zeitgeist, as I write this blog post, is the number one ranked video on Google Video, not only in Canada, but in the entire world. It attacks Christianity, the offical account of 9/11, and the Federal Reserve System. Have you seen Zeitgeist and/or Loose Change? What did you think? In both cases, I heard about the videos through word of mouth. On YouTube, Zeitgeist has been viewed hundreds and thousands of times. The correlation between the power of the internet and the spread of conspiracy thinking cannot be ignored. Do you think society craves conspiracy thinking? If so, why? What is it about conspiracy thinking and conspiracy theories that is letting them thrive today? What are your thoughts on 9/11? Do you believe the official story from the U.S. government and the 9/11 Commission?
How can Beck scream about "questioning" authority on every issue except Obama's Birth Cert or 9-11 ??? Is he an Obama supporter ??? I've listened to him for a long time and I'd say he IS an Obama supporter to a certain extent (as a right gatekeeper). By that, I mean Obama was the selection this past election cycle and the so- called conservative talk pundits did their jobs by getting rid of Ron Paul and keeping the likes of John McNeedsaCane in the race.
Whoever would return government to the "will of the people" must first return the United States to the use of CONSTITUTIONAL COINAGE as a medium of exchange and through it return the Constitution as law in the United States.
We need to get the Truther stigma turned around. I am proud to want to learn the truth wherever it is to be found. I try to be truthful and honest in all my affairs. Is there anyone here who believes differently? Thanks.
What are your thoughts on 9/11? Do you believe the official story from the U.S. government and the 9/11 Commission? Conspiracy theories abound because conspiracies are plentiful. Conspiracies thrive today because law enforcement are busied shaking down little old ladies or enforcing non-crimes while the real culprits are legislating to make their illegal activities - legal / or taking bribes to make their lobbyist friend's crimes - legal. [Hitler is a known criminal but everything he did was legal]. My actual thoughts are that certain factions within and without the U.S. Government did it and continue to cover it up. I also believe that people within the government charged with investigating events such as 9-11 are hesitant to do their jobs, fearing repurcussions. Further, I think the controlling voices in media (operation mockingbird) are all owned by the CIA or whomever they actually work for.
Whoever would return government to the "will of the people" must first return the United States to the use of CONSTITUTIONAL COINAGE as a medium of exchange and through it return the Constitution as law in the United States.
I am proud to want to learn the truth wherever it is to be found. I try to be truthful and honest in all my affairs. Is there anyone here who believes differently? Nope ... not me. I believe the same as you do. I think far more people recognized what Beck was doing to Medina than Beck's handlers or even Beck himself considered. He screwed the pooch.

I don't listen to Beck often enough to answer your questions with any authority. I will say this though. I personally would never associate myself with the Birther or 9/11 Truther movements. Both have been corrupted by disinformation agents. Look who is a leading figure in the Birther movement - a dentist turned lawyer former real estate agent and full fledged Zionist, Orly Taitz. Shish. Orly Taitz has damaged the credibility of the Birther movement beyond repair. Read this haaretz interview with Orly the Magic Lawyer and you'll see what I mean: www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1108 110.htmlGlenn Beck is a horse's ass and a complete fraud.

As for the Truther movement, here's a website that shows how the Truther movement has also been irreparably compromised.

I'm not justifying Beck's cheap shot baiting of Dr. Paul and Medina. But I am saying that I can understand why Beck has not aligned himself with Truthers or Birthers. I wouldn't either. And it has nothing to do with being afraid to question authority. It has more to do with common sense and protecting one's career from being tainted by clearly "damaged goods."
Anyways, I think Medina handled Beck's questions perfectly. She stated that questions remain unanswered about 9/11 - which is fact - Medina's response mirrored the 86% of Americans who disbelieve the gubment's official story - and she did not bite Beck's bait by going on at length about what those questions might be. She answered his question directly and then matter-of-factly pointed out to Beck that his focus of questions had veered off topic because he said the interview was supposed to be about getting to know Medina's Governor campaign positions and 9/11 was outside the purview of state governors' responsibilities.

I don't feel stigmatized when someone calls me a "truther." I believe in being honest and believe in other people being honest with me. And I don't believe the official account of what happened on 9/11. To me, that (the official explanation) is the wackiest conspiracy theory I ever heard.

You are defending "keeping your eye off the ball" by lack of fact and plenty of fiction. Both the birther and truther movements have helped lose America. Since 2001, America has subdued more personal rights while our mutual and respective tax base(s) have gone up. I might add, the nation is near dead because of poor government and petty political nuisances nothing to do with birthers or truthers.
The terms birther and truther may be crazy, but the fact that people are asking questions related to 9-11 or Obama's "constitutional" legitimacy aren't crazy simply because they ask for answers to relevant questions that have serious consequences to freedom.

I may be wrong on this, but from what I understand, that was the first time she's been asked the 9/11 question. Not during dozens, if not hundreds, of local and regional interviews has she been asked to address this. If my understanding is correct, the question wasn't consistent with other interviews. A CBSNews Article with comments is interesting about 1/3 of the way down. Someone claims they and several they knew where contacted by "robo calls" shortly after the Beck interview by the Hutchinson and Perry campaigns. I know the turnaround on robo calls is pretty quick, in that you can craft a statement and get it out there in a hurry if you need to. But in a political landscape, you need to get the message down, vet for maximum advantage, edit and release it and that can take a little bit of time. Beck has made some quasi-positive statements about Perry apparently previous to the Medina interview. Given this, yeah, it smells like someone(s) under the Perry umbrella figured Medina has sympathy for the 9/11 movement that they could exploit and gave Beck this angle and he went after it. It's a move that someone pulled out of their back pocket in the event things got too close in order pick off and marginalize a candidate. And like I said, it will probably work. I thought she was caught off guard and answered pretty well. Do I think she could have managed the answer better? Yes.
The question wasn't the problem, her answer was the problem.

Thanks! I have a lovely two year old girl who my wife and I adore and I post more infrequently than ever before. I lurk and read every day though. To answer your question, someone has to be the "fall guy" for the rest of us to learn not to do that again. Beck ambush Paul and has then more or less warmed up to him. Between then and now, I can see how someone like Medina (or anyone) would allow their guard to be down. For those paying attention and in Medina's shoes in the future, this won't and shouldn't happen again. It's unfortunate it happened now. Hutchinson supported an illegal war killing thousands more than died on 9/11 (hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis) and supports the inhumane practice of torture and now she has the gall to lecture Medina about dishonoring the troops and the 9/11 families. If the world were fair, Hutchinson would be in prison. I don't know where to begin with Perry, though I'm sure Christine would have a good idea of where to start.

I'll respond to your post even though I hesitate to waste the time. The birther and truther "movements" (if they can be called movements)are aimed at transparency in a government established upon a constitution that has been overtly ignored for such a long time that an idiot like you might dare attempt to blame the decline of America on those adherents to the very principles upon which the nation achieved whatever greatness it ever enjoyed. You mention that I defend "keeping one's eye off the ball" ... how so ? What exactly is the "ball" that one should keep his/her eye upon ? I have resisted calling you out for the obvious moron that you are, out of respect for Christine's effort to provide a forum for intelligent dialogue. I think she should make everyone take an I.Q. Test before becoming a 4UM member so that dipshits like you could be avoided. I might add, the nation is near dead because of poor government and petty political nuisances nothing to do with birthers or truthers. The above statement contradicts your initial response and causes me to wonder why you posted anything at all unless you're just a troublemaker without the intellect necessary to avoid publicly arguing with yourself. Besides that, the reason the country is in the condition presently enjoyed is criminal government, not poor government. Spending trillions of dollars of American people's pensions funds and retirements is not petty nuisance it's GRAND FUCKING LARCENY. Killing millions of innocent people in our name internationally is not a petty nuisance, it's MASS MURDER by PROXY. Someone killed 3000 Americans on September 11, 2001. The U.S. spends some 40 billion dollars of taxpayers hard earned money on intelligence annually (probably more), and some people are interested enough in their families, their fellow citizens and their posterity to DEMAND SOME FUCKING ANSWERS. I can see by your post that you are not one of these folks. I guess it would be nearly impossible for you to see the relevance of legally requiring the compliance of all candidates with constitutional mandates, especially those running for office on issues such as transparency in government as did Obubba. [The phrase "you can lead a horses ass to water but you can't make it think", reminds me of you.] If the U.S. Govt. cannot operate within the framework upon which it was founded then it should be abolished and another established with the changes necessary to the nation's betterment. The continued cooperation of the general public in support of an out of control police state makes no sense. To facilitate ones own demise "IS THE DEFINITION OF SUICIDE".

The reason she could be marginalized is because 9/11 "truth" is equated with the nutjob conspiracy fringe. If 9/11 "truth" was taken seriously by people outside the conspiracy fringe, political candidates would be embracing it fully.

9-11 is most likely responsible for millions of American's awakening and in the end may even be responsible for completely destroying the left-right paradigm. Someone please remind me to never try to speak again to the deaf and dumb.
