Amazing that people, a journalist no less, is getting bashed for pointing out the truth. If she were to to that throughout the entire debate, do you realize how much better off the low information and undecided voters would be? Not so good for Romney, but hey, that's the breaks. Now that I think about it, there should be fact checkers at the debates. That would make things much more informative and fair to voters.

I'm quite sure you know the truth, why would you write something like this that you know isn't true?
No respect for one's self would be the only reason. I bet you teach your children better than that...
Yet you will continue with your ridiculous argument forever, knowing full well you are wrong.. I don't understand the liberal mind, have you no pride at all...?

The truth is that Romney lied...What is your problem? There is video as proof and you are still denying it and I am the one with no pride? Are you in charge of your faculties at all? You are against fact checking? That is alternate universe nuts!

If they are vegetarian for health reasons they are probably not overweight, if they are vegetarian for animal rights or religious reasons then they can easily be overweight. The fattest person I know personally became a vegetarian after seeing a documentary in college about the food industry, never shed a pound.

The simple fact that she was wrong is why she should be fired. People should be held accountable for their actions. Obama did a good job in this debate. He had a great swing at Romney over this. The problem is he was wrong and it was planned out. He intentionality mislead Americans. Candy played his little minion. It was planned people. They were trying to pull the sheets over our eyes by changing the timeline. The whole point is they knew it was a terrorist attack the night it happened. They knew there was no "protests over a YouTube video". They lied and mislead, that's is the problem. People are dead here!! This is worse then Watergate! They got caught with their hands dirty. Mitt didn't do a good job clarifying this because Candy threw a curveball at him. This administration is ruthless! They are throwing Hillary under the bus to save their own skins! I thought Hillary was stronger then that. Guess not. I am very disappointed with Hillary. I am very very disgusted with this administration. "The problem with you is you always have to tell the truth" Obama This is what he told his preacher. Read Obama's books and you will realise he is not who he appears to be.

Yes, it is. No one died in Watergate. 4 died in Benghazi, including a U.S. Ambassador.

By saving Obama while he begged her to do so from his stool - Candy actually directed more attention to this subject matter post debate than it may have received otherwise. As a result, this Obamalie (of many) has become huge and more people are talking about it than I think would have been had she not interjected herself. THANK YOU Candy! Karma, sweet karma.
