GEORGE BUSH PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE, Oct 9, 2004
exposing how George W. Bush had worn an electronic cueing device in his ear and probably cheated during the presidential debates. Photos depicting the bulge and speculating on just what it might be (a medical device, a radio receiver?) began circulating widely around the Internet, and several special blog sites were established to discuss them. The suspicion that Bush had been getting cues or answers in his ear was bolstered by his strange behavior in that first debate, which included several uncomfortably long pauses before and during his answers. On one occasion, he burst out angrily with "Now let me finish!" at a time when nobody was interrupting him and his warning light was not flashing. Images of visibly bulging backs from earlier Bush appearances began circulating, along with reports of prior incidents that suggested Bush might have been receiving hidden cues/whispers. i'M sure the device have been miniaturized even more.
You are saying the President of the US was wearing an electronic device of 1950's technology. What do you think he was wearing a reel-to-reel? I would think that looks more like a bullet proof vest.
This just shows that not all Ron Paul supporters are smart.
Nowhere did I "defend Romney."
This is the exact type of thinking that supposedly freaks you out about Bush so much. If you criticize Iraq, you are "defending terrorists." If you criticize this stupid conspiracy theory, you are "defending Romney." The seeds of fascist thought are already planted in the militant wing of the Ron Paul movement, lovely. Add a dash of unwillingness to see reality (it was a stupid moderator talking / there are no WMDs) and we have a "freedom" movement built on the same thuggish irrationality of the one it wants to replace.
I'm sure all the new Fred Thompson supporters are really impressed.

He was not fed the answers. Most likely, it was someone who either a) didn't know their mic was on, or b) someone whispering to someone else who had a mic on.
I expect it was the guy from the local newspaper who was in the audience, or someone next to him.
It's like watching Jeopardy. Even when you're not asked the question, a lot of people like to answer out loud to prove that they know it. It was probably some schmuck who wanted to prove to the people around him that he knew the answer to Tim's "gotcha" question.

I'd like to see another camera angle... that camera has to be on someone who whispered that.
A reasonable question, with a very reasonable answer - they thought they could just quietly remind Russert what the point of his question was without breaking up the flow of the conversation and calling attention to themselves. A reasonable thing to think on the spur of the moment.
Contrast that reasonable answer with what you have to come up with if you don't believe it was harmless, and tell me which one makes the most sense to you.
Some people here bend over backwards in their thinking just to have a conspiracy of the day.

You stated that the "who let the dogs out video" was fake. Which it obviously isn't.
I'm just curious as to the answers to my other questions, not the red herring about my intelligence or about Bush's fearmongering.
So, one more time:
Why do you defend Romney on this and on the other "gangsta Mitt" video?
Why did MSNBC immediately remove references to it?
Why did Romney edit it out of his YouTube video?
If it was 'no big deal' then why hide it?
By the way, I do agree that it seems crazy that we could suddenly hear his 'feed' but I also watched the video and it seems to me, that if I were to have the question, then hear this whispered part, it would have given me pause. And there's no reaction from Romney whatsoever, making it look like he's used to having things whispered to him.
Either way, the press did not say squat about it and even if he does have a feed, he'll get away with it just like he did the lie about watching daddy march with MLK.

not on tv
Journalists rarely are given TV shows, and when they do get on, it's usually very early in the am.

I think this needs to get brought up at a higher level whether wrong or right myself. Nothing like getting publicity as a flip flopping answer feeding liar. His record is shot and this b.s. that does happen can confirm it. If it came from the table then I hope they write a statement on it saying if they did or didn't say it.
To me it sounds like an answer given up to him simply because he looks clueless. I wonder though if an ear piece is even illegal in a debate?
I wouldn't put it passed him at all.
Also, if there was a whisper to reclarify ANYTHING they would say it LOUDLY. Tim is an ass and loves to ask questions that stump people. Look at the meet the press deals and especially when he asked huck the difference between sheites (spelling who knows lol)and and whatever the hell the others are. He asks 50/50 questions to make people look stupid all the time and I doubt he would stop his style during this.
Someone whispered it, why would they edit it out or 100% deny it? all this does is feed the conspiracy theorists mentality or make me seem crazy lol.

I don't know...I've seen an aweful lot of mistakes such as these that they blame on human error. I could care less about where the voice came from. Two things come from this:
1.) Romney won't raise taxes, and will contiune the war and spending (This is failure in my mind)
2.) If Romney is being spoon fed answers, he can't run a country.
Either way, I'm voting Ron Paul

1.29 "I do not believe we need new legislation" then you hear a voice say 'support', he changes it to "i do not support new legislation".
How ridiculous is this.
Does this remind anyone else of the "Manchurian Canidate"???????

I do hear a faint 'support', but keep in mind that Romney said the same word several times in the sentences preceding it. The mic could have picked up one of the moderators or someone nearby who was simply repeating what Romney may have said a few seconds ago... Or maybe there's a weird echo of some sort. \(
)?
But, yeah, that is pretty creepy when coupled with the mysterious 'raise taxes' clip.

How many people there are talking and not listening intently to the candidate speak? I'd think that when they are talking, all eyes are on them and everyone is very quiet hanging on their words.
