The past weekend was quite busy for the GOP candidates. One debate Saturday night, facilitated by lib/Dem-hack-posing-as-a-journalist George Stephanopoulous and another one Sunday morning with lib/Dem-hack-posing-as-a-journalist David Gregory.
Each debate had its key moments, but the one that made the most news was when Stephanopoulous posed to Mitt Romney the hypothetical question whether a state has the Constitutional right to ban contraception, citing the landmark Griswold vs. Connecticut case from 1965. It was a completely irrevalent but extremely loaded "gotcha" question that was clearly posed to paint Romney and any other candidate who took the bait as some sort of privacy-hating sex-obsessed turn-back-the-clock neanderthal.
Fortunately neither Romney nor anyone else took the bait and in the end it was Stephanopoulous who looked like the fool.
Here's the Great One discussing this truly embarrassing moment and delivering an exegesis on the Griswold case and the heralded "Right to Privacy". This is truly a listen and learn clip so sit down and take it all in:
