Walks out on the interview so she wouldn't have to answer a question about her own convictions.

I just love watching these conservative Republicans on non-American media. These people are so accustomed to the dainty kid-gloves treatment they get from our corporate media where they get to talk about whatever they want and are only asked softball questions. Then they go on BBC, Al Jezera or some other foreign news source and get this deer-in-the-headlights look on their faces as the journalist has the audacity to ask real and pointed questions. They don't know how to handle it and usually whine that they're being treated "rudely". The word "rude" is bandied about commonly by these people, like a bunch of spoiled rich kids who think they're entitled to deference.

I love his surprise after she throws rude out there. "I am?"..lol. I would have busted out in laughter right there. Guess she forgot to stuff the right herbs in her christo-pagan voodoo doll that day.

Yeah, asking a question about something she actually did write about in her book - at an interview meant to promote that very book, is somehow "rude".


I just wanted to yell at her: "Answer the fucking question bitch! You're making all Americans look bad right now!" and simultaneously smack her in the back of the head.





Rude. She has no idea what rude is.

Right. Just as American wack job right wingers have no concept what real journalism is like, non-American reporters are rightly surprised at what they expect. I wonder if people outside America are aware of just how docile our media has become in their treatment of the right wing?

I thought we were done with this wacko.

The American system breeds whackos. I don't know what the dumb cunt thinks people will do with her "book" once all the pictures are colored in.


But...just for old time's sake........

That may be, but we do find him to be quite British. *nods*

Sure, I wasn't doubting that, but DeistPaladin seemed to be under the impression that this was "non-American media", when technically it wasn't.
