Please refer to my original story: “Hardly Undecided”
What happen at the Republican Debate on 11/28/2007, is just another example of the bias, intentional or otherwise, demonstrated by the media.
During the debate citizens were allowed to submit their questions, via “Youtube,” to the presidential candidates. CNN decided which questions would be asked. One such person, Retired General Kerr, asked about Gays in the military. General Kerr had every right, based on the debate format, to ask the question. However, there are several issues of concern:
General Kerr was in attendance at the debate, as a guest of CNN. General Kerr was allowed to express his displeasure, in person, to the answer provided. This broke with the agreed upon format of the debate:
General Kerr is an active supporter of Hillary Clinton (Clinton Press Release: General Keith Kerr). General Kerr, a member of LGBT (Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, and Transgender) for Hillary Clinton, is a panel member of Hillary Clinton’s steering committee to address Gay issues. This fact, easily obtained by anyone who performs a simple Google search on General Karr’s name, should have eliminated General Kerr’s participation in the question portion of the debate.
It is inexcusable that CNN did not do a simple check on General Kerr, considering the importance they attached to his question (which was evident by inviting Mr. Kerr to the debate and allowing him an opportunity provide follow-up remarks to the answers provided).
But guess what, General Kerr was not the only “plant” that participated in the debate:”
Youtube Questioners Identified as Decided
From the start, with the stupid “Youtube” GOP song video, followed by the planted questions from Democratic supports, and then ending by allowing General Kerr an active part in the debate, CNN and Youtube shamed themselves and this debate only served to confirmed CNN's anti-Republican agenda.
We should remember that all the Democratic Presidential candidates refused to attend the Fox News Debate, believing Fox would be biased against them, which is absolute rubbish. Fox News would have never allowed what we have seen from the CNN debates to occur. But knowing CNN/Youtubes obvious biases, the Republicans showed up anyway. Something all Americans should remember.

Boo-who, boo-who....suck it up and accept the fact that it doesn't matter whether the questions were "planted" or not. Its a debate, and the questions were all valid. If they can't stand the heat, then get out of the kitchen.
