Man, the body language and the facial expressions said it all. Of course, what she actually said confirmed her inescapable bias as well.
Somehow the whole conversation got off on a climate-change footing, and when Trump stated the obvious - that there have been fluctuations in the global climate as long as there's been a global climate, and that it would be insane from an economic standpoint for humankind to drastically alter its ways and abandon its advancement - she gave him a look as if he'd just broken wind at a cocktail party. "But the scientists!" she stammered.
She later assumed the oh-my-word-he's-not-really-saying-that-is-he look again when the subject turned to his rally speech in which he offered a rundown of the basic questions to which Christine Ford pleaded ignorance. "But you mimicked her!" she protested, to which he basically said, "Um, yeah, but I didn't state any thing but the truth." After a bit of back and forth about it, he finally said that it was now moot since Kavanaugh's confirmation is a done deal.
Another great moment was when they were tussling about media bias and he finally said, "I'm the president and you're not."
LITD readers know I'm none too fond of Kurt Schlichter, but I couldn't help thinking of one of his stock terms as I watched it. Stahl was in full well-I-never mode the entire 22 minutes.
I also, as you know, find the Very Stable Genius mostly objectionable, but he was exactly the foil this Acela Corridor creature needed.
Such a masterful dick weed he was, even before being prayed over for supernatural wisdom.
ReplyDeleteIt's all going so well these days, a trade war, a teetering market, a possibly nuclear North Korea, political rivals overtaking Congress, a nation-state murdering their journalists, no man-made climate change (it's a fact, come on, you're gonna destroy the economy with this crap), yet he still delivers a brazenly confident assessment of the first half of his term granted by the electoral college. "I know all these things," he bragged, I mean--I'm not a baby, I know these things." Looks like even the supremely principled bloggie lapped it all up.
ReplyDeleteIt's not inescapable bias when you are interviewing the greatest asshole to ever hold the office. Stahl has more balls than Ted Cruz.
ReplyDeleteAh, another one for the disparage-the-electoral-college crowd.
ReplyDeleteNo, it was glorious to see Leslie get it stuck square up her ass.
Expect hate towards an incessant insulting bully that more voters voted against than for. I didn't watch it, but am hearing a tale of two takes on his anal penetration of this despicable press ho.
ReplyDeleteI'm well aware that hate is all the Left has to go on going into these midterms. We shall see how far it takes them.

ReplyDeleteI am fairly certain that you and the Orange Usurper have probably the same amount of understanding of how the physics of climatology works.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, these faux protestations of disdain for Putin's Pal have become embarrassingly transparent. Clearly he is the embodiment of everything for which you advocate.

ReplyDeleteC'mon, stop it. You'll make me blush...

Yep hate is all voters have to go on this cycle. Sure, they say we got a great economy going and we are once again respected in the world but, you know, there is also the odor of fear and distrust and that weird feeling that the sky is falling.
ReplyDeleteThe "once again respected in the world" claim is particularly delusional. The relationships and alliances that have previously commanded the world's respect are in tatters. Our allies no longer consider us trustworthy and our adversaries guffaw openly at the inept and corrupt buffoon we have installed in the Oval Office.
