Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton expressed her “deep-felt disappointment” with the turn her NPR interview with Terry Gross took. “Of all places I would’ve thought I’d be safe on NPR,” Clinton complained. “Is this woman dense? For her to badger me like she did is unhelpful. I mean, NPR is public radio. As a subsidiary of the federal government they ought to do a better job of helping their friends.”
The incident that sparked Clinton’s ire was a Gross question concerning when Clinton decided to support gay marriage. “During the time your husband was president it appeared that your position was opposed to gay marriage,” Gross said. “The infamous ‘Defense of Marriage Act’ defining marriage as a union of opposite sexes was passed by Congress and signed by President Clinton in 1996. Yet now, it seems that you fully support gay marriage. When did you switch sides?”
“At this point what does it matter when I switched sides,” Clinton replied. “If some want to believe that I always secretly supported gay marriage, but kept quiet for Bill’s sake, what’s wrong with that? If others want to believe that I, like so many other Americans, gradually came to the right side of the issue, what’s wrong with that?”
“I was only trying to clarify things,” Gross said. “Many brave individuals have been leaders in the fight for gay rights. Don’t voters deserve to know whether you were among them? Or is being a follower of popular trends sufficient grounds for voters to elect you president in 2016?”
The question now seems to be whether Gross will be able to hold onto her job at NPR. Paul Haaga, interim Chief Executive Officer of NPR would only say that “personnel matters are confidential. Whether any particular individual is employed by the organization is an internal matter. The complaint registered by Secretary Clinton will be taken under consideration. A decision that best serves the national will be rendered.”
In related news, Clinton is reportedly undecided on whether she will honor subpoenas to testify before Congress on Benghazi. “I do want to boost my book’s sales,” she told friends. “And some say any publicity is good publicity. But would stirring up more dust over that long ago tragedy really be in the nation’s best interest?” Hillary suggested that “if I were able to see the questions in advance and be permitted to delete those that are irrelevant then I might see my way clear to participate. Otherwise I’m not inclined to invest my time.”

” a subsidiary of the federal government”
a subsidiary hillary?
and who’s dense??
was she this unclear before the lil accident?
Helping people to see a fairy shrill female politician, who, like every other politician, doesn't like to be confronted with their words and actions nor the consequences of their words and actions.
What else is new?
What-a-ya-know
Finally some truth about NPR from a Democrat about NPR
NPR is government radio and their Democrat supporters expect that they will be friendly to their Democrat friends and support their issues.
So the next time NPR comes up for renewal Republicans have all of the proof they need to kill it.
Were not our nation completely and insanely out of control, Madame Clinton would be incarcerated in a high security prison on the charge of treason.
Stand DOWN Hilary!
While the NPR interview itself may be dense, it exposed Clinton as a big time light weight
I wish FR would have a minimum standard as to the quality of satire posted.
Satire is virtually impossible today — indistinguishable from straight news reporting.

ooooh hitlery
you stepped in it now
Uh, Hillary
You came to the Left Side of the issue.
Don’t you know that?
I think she got more brain damage than she knows in that fall.
Absolutely brilliant! One of your best.
She who has failed at every position she has held said this?
She who couldn’t pass the most elementary of STEM classes said this?
She who would be cleaning tables had she not boinked a talented grifter said this?
The woman is an ignorant slut.
It’s satire - never happened
darned
its satire
Taking from Dan Blather — satire, but accurate.
Absolutely a fact. File this satire in "You Couldn't Make This Stuff Up"
That’s one of the major problems with America’s First, “Dead Broke” Bag Lady. Nag, nag, nag. Just ask Willie. That, and it’s hard to look her straight in the eye these days to see if she’s lying . LOL!
