Gingrich threatens to skip debates.

NEW YORK (PNN) - January 24, 2012 - On Tuesday morning, Newt Gingrich threatened to not participate in any future debates with audiences that have been instructed to be silent. That was the case on Monday, when Brian Williams of NBC News asked the audience of about 500 people who assembled for a debate in Tampa to hold their applause until the commercial breaks.

In an interview with the morning show Fox and Friends, Gingrich said NBC’s rules amounted to stifling free speech. In what has become a standard line of attack for his anti-establishment campaign, Gingrich blamed media for trying to silence dissenting points of view.

“I wish in retrospect I’d protested when Brian Williams took them out of it because I think it’s wrong,” said Gingrich. “I think he took them out of it because media (are) terrified that the audience is going to side with the candidates against media, which is what they’ve done in every debate.”

Gingrich reportedly soared to victory in the South Carolina last week after back-to-back debates in which he took on the moderators with as much zeal as he took on his rivals for the Republican presidential nomination.

However, there are questions about the honesty of the vote count, because Rep. Ron Paul (Tex.) far outpolled Gingrich in the lead up to the South Carolina primary.

Many election analysts believe that without a system of paper ballot counts, overseen by members of the public in an open counting session, there can be no assurance of honest election results.

It has now been proven that there was blatant voter count fraud in the 2000, 2004 , and 2008 presidential elections, though nothing was done to the outlaws who participated in it. The same fraud is expected in this year’s election, and will continue until and unless honest and open vote counting is restored.
