@dencal26 All this kid did was very simply prove Huppenthal to be a liar. He did it in a very respectful way and Huppenthal just had nothing to say, he got caught lying.

@Philinspaces Source? I'm sure he would be "irked" when he was the one that uploaded this video.

@1chamberlain1 Actually (regarding Huppenthal), the bill, which was part of a two-bill package that closed a $650 million deficit in FY09, did three things: roll over $100 million in university funding; roll over $300 million in K-12 funding; and cut $250 million from K-12, but backfill the cuts with an equal amount of federal stimulus money. Additionally, budget documents from JLBC show the career and technical education funding levels are unchanged from FY09 at about $11.5 million.

@Isaiah122 says the man who was brought up with public education, and who's children probably attend public school, or receive some other government-disperse assistance.

The cut showed him apparently contradicting himself and then walking out of the interview. It later emerged that the video inaccurately portrayed the interview and that Huppenthal did return. Wagner confirmed that the posted cut was inaccurate, and further stated that he was "irked" that his video was used for political means. The cut funding that Wagner asks about, and which appears to bewilder Huppenthal, was actually not part of the bill that Wagner references in his questioning.

Please stop crossing the axis during your interviews. And remember to white balance.
