U.S. Republican presidential candidates gather before the start of their debate in Ames, Iowa August 11, 2011. They are (from L to R) Rick Santorum, Herman Cain, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Michele Bachmann, Tim Pawlenty, Jon Huntsman and Newt Gingrich. REUTER
We're sick of pretending to be moderates. To the Beckmobile!
This. Is. Awesome.
The Republican National Committee (RNC) voted unanimously Friday to pull the group’s partnership with NBC and CNN for the 2016 GOP presidential primary debates unless the networks kill their planned films on Hillary Clinton.

“We don't have time for the media's games,” RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said before the vote at the RNC summer meeting in Boston. “We’re done putting up with this nonsense. There are plenty of other news outlets.”

Or one specific "news" outlet in particular, as manchild Reince did not bother to say.

Bless them. As Kos says, there's no reason for the Republican crazy machine to have to tone it down and step out of the clown shoes to have a debate hosted by anyone other than fellow crackpots. Raise the big top, boys, now we're gonna put on a show.

10:59 AM PT: Well now this part really is a blow:

RNC communications director Sean Spicer told POLITICO that the boycott would extend to NBC and CNN's Spanish-language channels: Telemundo and CNN Espanol.
I'm sure the Republican candidates will all be devastated by the news that they're not allowed to compare anti-immigration convictions on the two Spanish-language networks.
