Chris is good about trying to make people actually answer question.

(37,364 posts)The Teabagger was talking over him and not answering. He never did really do anything but toss out Teabagger talking points and keep redefining words to fit them. Frankly, he was a good candidate for having a mic turned off.
Logical
(22,457 posts)the specific question about if he would actually export 11 million people and he would not answer it. Maybe you were not paying attention.

(37,364 posts)He didn't answer that question or any other but continued to spout Teabagger talking points or change the subject. Other posters on this thread apparently saw what I saw as well.
Logical
(22,457 posts)cut him off and asked the question again, which he did not answer AGAIN.

(37,364 posts)Not answering a question and repeating it isn't exactly tearing someone up. It's just not getting the question answered. Also not calling him out for changing the subject to Clinton when asked about Reagan wasn't exactly tearing him up either. Perhaps you should quit trying to tell me what kind of person I am while you are at it. It adds nothing and I continue to hold my own opinion.

(9,033 posts)He was totally overwhelmed. Asked about a Reagan policy, Brooks said it was a Clinton policy and ran with it; Chris couldn't and didn't correct him. All that interview did was allow more airtime for Puke talking points.
