KERA DALLAS DEBATE GATE: WE TEXANS DEMAND INVITATION NOW

DALLAS, TX, Republican candidate for
Governor of Texas Debra Medina’s gubernatorial campaign today announced that
she would be at the KERA sponsored gubernatorial debate in Dallas, Texas on
January 14. Making the point that KERA is a 501(c)(3) organization, campaign
manager Penny Langford Freeman said that unless Debra Medina is on the debate
stage, KERA would be in violation of the IRS’ restrictions on political
activity.
“On so many levels, the KERA debate reeks of political manipulation,” said
campaign press secretary Nelda Carrizales Skevington. “KERA’s position of
supporting Governor Rick Perry and Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison at this debate
while excluding Debra Medina’s participation clearly violates the IRS’
prohibition against political campaign activity. It is obvious KERA is
conducting this Republican primary debate in a partisan manner and with bias,”
she added.
“Clearly we do not have free and open elections here in Texas. It is becoming
obvious KERA is bowing to big federal and state government funding sources. Are
Governor Perry and Senator Hutchison guilty of ignoring apparent IRS
violations? Does that mean they are in collusion with KERA and accessories to
IRS violations? According to the IRS code, citizens are obligated to report the
violations,” added campaign manager Penny Langford Freeman. “Even Mark Miner,
spokesperson for Governor Perry, said, ‘It is like someone having a Christmas
party that you are not invited to’ - they make the decisions.”
“Sounds like KERA, Rick Perry and Kay Bailey Hutchison are having a big party
courtesy of the Texas taxpayer but We Texans are not invited,” concluded
candidate Debra Medina.
I don't understand why the suits over at KERA are so afraid of a little nurse from Wharton having her say at a debate. What is taking those folks so long to figure out if they're going to invite her or not? Why are they hesitating?
Penny Langford Freeman is or until recently was Ron “The Nutter” Paul’s top federally paid person. She is the same nutter type “Hate America First cuz It’s Our Fault The Arab’s Hate Us” as Ron Paul and finally seals the deal on why Debra Medina is a NO Go for real conservatives. Sadly Debra Medina is being used as a shill for the Libertarian party to disrupt GOP nomination process.
Racism! From a PBS station how dare you Mr. Oscar. How dare you accuse KERA of having a racist agenda. They're not racists they're flaming liberals and as such tolerant of all belief's expect Conservative belief's or Christian belief's and Debra Medina is both conservative and Christian. How could you accuse the uber-liberal of being racially intolerant? You must be white? They're all bigots you know? I hope you're getting the sarcasm and that I agree with you 100%. KERA is racist, elitist and is manipulating the process by disallowing a qualified candidate solely because The Governor: RICK PERRY said he won't show up if Medina (who would kick his you know what) is allowed to debate...so given that who's really the racist???
