Unbelievable- Gay General At Republican Debate Is A Member of Hillary Clinton’s Gay Steering Committee?
Tonight’s CNN debate had a ‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell’ question from a retired general. Apparently the general, Keith Kerr, is a member of the LGBT Americans For Hillary Steering Committee.
Kerr was in the audience and after Romney, Hunter and Huckabee responded, Kerr was asked if he felt they answered his question. Kerr took that opportunity to make a two or three minute speech in favor of gays serving openly in the military and taking the Republicans to task for not supporting that.
You have to hand it to them...the Hillary people are really good at planting questions. At least CNN didn't identify him as an undecided voter.
H/t The Corner
UPDATE:
Commenter TheEJS points out that Kerr was part of Veterans for Kerry as well.
UPDATE x2:
Cooper said CNN didn't know about Kerr's affiliation with the Clinton campaign and had they known they would have acknowledged it, if they had used his question at all.
