 I think the way the question was asked was equally ignorant!  I don´t know where Bain got his facts but the entire portion of the debate was/is completely inflammatory!  Honestly, alameda, I think my head is going to blow off if I have to explain that Turkey is not an Islamic republic to one more person...how about you??  Now, I am not saying Turkey doesn´t have issues!  In any case, I don´t think we have to worry about Rick Perry.  It doesn´t look like he will succeed in getting the nomination.  However, it makes me wonder how many people REALLY think this!!!  {#emotions_dlg.head_bang}{#emotions_dlg.head_bang}{#emotions_dlg.head_bang}

Absolutly, 100%, when I read the transcript it was amazing, but after all, it was on a Fox/ WSJ (now Rupert Murdock) sponsored debate. He said we should stop giving Turkey aid...but didn´t know Turkey doesn´t get aid from the US

It´s amazing these people get away with outright lying. {#emotions_dlg.head_bang}.....but then they probably sudscribe to the "Big Lie" school.

I can´t help but think that every news venue is corrupted by the political machine and the more I watch the debates the more I am convinced that many citizens in our country have attended something like the Big Lie School! While everyone is wasting time keeping up with Kardashians, the sadness of another Hollywood breakup or which celebrity had plastic surgery, our elected officials or would be elected officials are coming up with more ways to make the American people believe that evil Turks (or insert any other group here) are out to get us and we need to stop them!  And all the while they are telling us that only they have a plan to protect us.  {#emotions_dlg.head_bang}{#emotions_dlg.head_bang}{#emotions_dlg.head_bang}

Do not beleive what is said by people who work for FOX and those types of "News chanel"  They are there for sensationalism and flash ratings.  This is the same supposedly Serious news chanel that considers Canada as United States retarded cousin.  Imagine what they think of other countries?  The people on those programs have over inflated egos and think they know everything.
