CNN burned by poisonous debate plant--again

Perhaps CNN, "The Most Trusted Name in News" should quit the presidential debate business. For the second time this month, planted questioners with ties to the Democratic Party, have sprouted in a CNN debate.

Read more about the first incident here.

Since I missed last night's Republican debate, I'm utilizing the insight of VodkaPundit's Stephen Green, who offered his analysis on Pajamas Media.

On of the best questions of the night came towards the end, and concerned the "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy. The questioner, was a retired Army general who served, in the closet, for 42 years before he could reveal himself as a gay man. Did CNN owe its viewers the courtesy of letting them know that that the general now serves on Hillary Clinton’s "Gay Steering Committee?"

On the subject of cable news, it's important to remember that the Democratic presidential candidates and their top staffers, spurred on by the nutroots, are boycotting the Fox News Channel, because of that network's alleged conservative bias.

The Democrats must prefer CNN's bias, as well as that belonging to MSNBC.

Fox News, of course, enjoys much higher ratings than either network.

UPDATE 4:30PM CST: Michelle Malkin found more plants in the CNN garden. Red State wants a debate "do over."
