With Greta Van Susteren In All-
Encompassing Foreign Policy Interview

Mediaite, by Josh Feldman

Posted By:KarenJ1, 1/30/2013 7:17:35 AM

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sat down tonight with Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren in an interview that touched on everything from Egypt and the United States’ relationship with President Mohammed Morsi to dealing with threats from Iran and how the State Department is handling the aftermath of last September’s attack on the United States consulate in Benghazi. On the latter, Clinton said the State Department is following recommendations by an accountability review board. (Snip) Van Susteren opened by asking Clinton about the current state of Egypt, given a comment by

Greta, I would love to know who ordered the Stand Down three times!

I would love to know the names and where abouts of the 30 others at the Embassy.

I would also like to see the real time video that State Dept was watching. It couldnt have been re runs of Happy Days.

Thank you

Have to say that Greta asked questions nobody else asked, and TRIED to get answers, but Hillary is so full of political- speak and blather that nothing came clear........try to figure out an ANSWER to anything asked that was anything but evasion and hot air. And of course, this is all laying the groundwork for the Presidency that the woman assured us she wouldn´t be running for.

On Benghazi, it´s the usual excuses. Ever since the Bush administration the Republican House has not given the State Department enough money for it to provide sufficient security.

I guess it´s as the President said. He did all he could. Nothing. Hillary also did all she could. Nothing.

"All-Encompassing??? Really?

Comments after are interesting. The dimbos have three stock responses:
1. Re Bengazi/F&F: Nothing to see here, move on.
2. You repubs/conservatives are stupid etc. (Pick your ad hominem attack.)
3. It’s Bush’s fault.

Was she wearing her coke bottle glasses to detract from her answers?

Did Hillary sneer, as did Piers Morgan, that Republicans were on their "high horse" over Benghazi?

I will NOT be watching OTR w/ Greta Van Kroft again. What a disappointment and Huge Opportunity lost. The Last five Months Greta has interrogated Senators and Congressmen over Benghazi and last night all we got was a ´Fireside Chat´ that left so many questions unanswered.

very funny #2

not at all surprised Greta held back. she is a lib and would vote for Hillary over a repug.

serious people do not watch Fox any more.

I was totally disappointed in Greta. She did not ask her about Benghazi. She let Hillary off and did not even try to pin her down. Such a waste of my time.

"Conservatives" show too much respect. Sen. Johnson should have called Hillary a liar. Ditto Sen. Paul. None of this "I would have removed you from office" crap. My Kingdom for some nads!

#1 says it for me. This was not a probing interview. Did Hillary have the questions before hand?

It seemed to me that Hillary answered Greta as if it was a script. Hill didn´t seem to have to choose her words as one would expect someone who has weighty, confidential information would have to do. Instead, her sentences just rolled out of her mouth as if she didn´t have to think about the answer.

Greta´s questions also seemed scripted. Let´s face it, this is TV and no second goes by on a TV program without it all having been written in advance.

Greta officially takes her place as second to 60 Minutes, the High Embassy of Propaganda, when Greta´s softball questions slip conveniently right in behind Steve´s.
As the wag above put it, finally: man to man
Call it: sharing lesbian mutual respect.

Hate to say I told you so, but....

Greta is more interested in Hillary´s female parts than in anything she has to say. Fox News is a sick joke and the GOP was better off without it.

Better to have Catherine Herridge interrogate her heinous.

The lies would easily be refuted with truth.

I don´t know why anyone would think Fox News still has any integrity. I stopped watching it a long time ago - it has sold out.

I also noticed what#4 did, that it was Bush´s fault that there was not enough money to do things properly.

Yes, #1, I have the same questions.

Aside from her hair always looking dirty, Hillary didn´t answer a single question and Susteren didn´t want to push the issue, either. Here:

Van Susteren brought up Iran and asked what the United States is doing to deal with Iran potentially obtaining a nuclear weapon. Clinton emphasized that the U.S. is focused on “prevention, not containment.”

What´s the difference? When you contain a country´s ability to produce nukes, don´t you "prevent" it? That´s a distinction without a difference, Miz Hillary.

When Van Susteren pressed Clinton on what options could be taken to stop Iran, Clinton affirmed that all options are on the table.

Other than sanctions which rarely work, what "options" does she mean? War?

She said there needs to be more crackdowns on terrorist activity connected to Iran, adding that “we’ll be issuing more sanctions” in the future.

Okay, so "sanctions" and "crackdowns". How, exactly, do you "crack down" on them?

There are so many typically-Hillary vagaries here that she does her law degree proud but in the process, deceives even Susteren, who is far brighter than Hillary on most days.

Why won´t somebody push this fading diva a little?

Greta lost all her credibility last night with one short, marshmallow interview intended only to pull in some ratings for her show.

Time for her to go back to interviewing Natalie Holloway´s parents, friends, teachers, suspects, etc.

She is not ready to play in the majors...and never will be.

Most people still think Greta is a conservative. She never fooled me!!

When defending Bill, the mantra was that all of the accusations were ´old news´ and no longer needed a response. She is just laying the groundwork so that in a couple of years she can say she has already dealt with the issues and wants to ´move on´. It worked before...

Why keep deriding Fox News? Its by far the best we have that people who don’t know how to read watch.

But only after Urine Van der Poop messed up with yet another killing.

In 2007, then Senator Barack Obama appeared on CNN´s Larry King Live and called on U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to resign. Obama said Gonzales was acting more like the president´s attorney than the people´s attorney and viewed himself as an "enabler of the administration." "Well, I voted against Alberto Gonzales confirmation for precisely the reason we are seeing now. I said this on the floor of the senate, that although he seemed to be a capable attorney, he seemed to conceive his role as being the president´s attorney instead of being the people´s attorney," Obama said.

MARK LEVIN: So why didn´t Chairman Issa hold an investigative hearing a year ago? Why didn´t Chairman Camp, all Republicans, hold an investigative hearing a year ago, and all the other tripping over themselves right now? I´ll tell you why. Because the establishment Republicans, the RINO Republicans, despise the Tea Party. They despise the conservative movement. We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.

The way to prevent abortionists like convicted murderer Kermit Gosnell from occurring again is to build more Planned Parenthood clinics, Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) said at a House Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on Thursday about legislation that would prevent abortion after 20 weeks nationwide. “I would urge my colleagues to think about the extent to which he, Dr. Gosnell, represented the poor quality of health care services available in poorer communities,” Nadler said at the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice hearing. “We should be working to make sure that high quality

Senate immigration bill

House Speaker John A. Boehner on Thursday flatly ruled out chances of the House passing the Senate’s immigration bill, saying his chamber will debate its own bill instead. The Ohio Republican and his top lieutenants in the party issued a joint statement that seemed designed to tamp down some of the momentum behind the Senate bill, which emerged from a committee on a bipartisan 13-5 vote this week, and to stake out a House GOP position. “While we applaud the progress made by our Senate colleagues, there are numerous ways in which

Bombshell: Eric Holder Lied

During friendly questioning from Rep. Hank “I fear that Guam will capsize!” Johnson in Congress last week, Attorney General Eric Holder offered the following statement. In regard to potential prosecution of the press for the disclosure of material. This is not something I’ve ever been involved in, heard of, or would think would be wise policy. He made that statement before the facts about the sweep on Fox News’ James Rosen were known. Since then, it’s come to light that Holder himself approved the subpoena that, among other things, named Rosen as a criminal co-conspirator.

As the saying goes, scratch a liberal and you’ll find a tyrant underneath. NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo is but the latest example. He shoved a very restrictive and ill-considered gun law through the state legislature in the dead of night. Among its flaws, the law criminalized police officers who tote firearms with magazines that hold more than seven rounds. Sheriffs around the state have objected to the law. Cuomo summoned them to the state capitol under what appears to be a false pretext, and used the meeting to threaten them into silence. Cuomo invited

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

Eva Longoria is backing up her beauty with a whole lot of brain. The actress graduated with a master´s degree Wednesday. Longoria, 38, took home a real degree (not an honorary one) in Chicano studies from Cal State Northridge, where she physically attended classes for three years, according to TMZ. "Big day today!!! Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies! You´re never too old or too busy to continue your education!" the actress wrote on her Who Say site Wednesday, sharing loads of pics of her big day, posing with her family, cohorts and diploma.

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.
