Fox host Van Susteren asks blog readers to gauge her intelligence

Grunt clearly answers her question every time, as an avowed Scientologist, she goes in to discover her engrams and enhance her OT Levels by grabbing the e-meter.

when progressives/liberals argue, and start to lose, they immediately say their opponent is stupid. idiotic. infantile. etc. attack the person, not the message.

Greta should understand this and not give the progressives the time of day. ignore them. do not engage them. just berate their actions but disregard their comments... as their comments will be juvenile and will never be substantive. they will level personal attacks constantly and never engage on facts.

engaging them when they issue personal attacks concedes ground as you fight to disprove some point that has nothing to do with the subject matter

there is nothing to gain by engaging in an argument with a progressive. they’ll lie, cheat, and move the goal posts... anything in an attempt to ‘win’. it’s like nailing jello to the wall.

One thing I can honestly say is that I’ve never questioned her intelligence.

Since I have no television, my access ti via XM radio and I occasionally tune in. I would have never thought to question her I Q. She is a good interviewer - very quick and hones right when her subjects try to evade/spin.

She’s more intelligent than BOR.

Whether it’s a reflection of “intelligence” or not, I don’t know. But here is what I DO know:

Over time, Greta’s show has become the most informative on Fox, and thus a favorite of mine. Why?

She is able to get the interviews that no one else on Fox seems to get. She was the first to get in depth interviews with Ben Nelson (Cornhusker Kickback), Mary Landriew (Louisiana Purchase) and Olympia Snowe (RINO). These were all in-depth, multi-part interviews (with additional footage on her website). No national sources that I’m aware of, got these kinds of interviews with these people before she did.

Greta is phenomenally well prepared for her interviews, and I suspect it comes from her legal background. She asks the question that is on the tip of the tongue of her viewer.

Unlike Hannity and BOR, she lets her interview subject talk, and does not try to run them over with her own opinion.

One cannot determine her political leanings by her demeanor only. (She is rumored to be a Democrat, albeit a conservative one; her spouse was a HRC operative). That said, she strikes me as a fiscal conservative, “good-gov’t” sort.

She has impeccable manners and bearing when conducting an interview with a gov’t official or guest. Tough, but fair. For this reason, I’m thinking, she is able to get people from all sides of the political aisle. To the best of my knowledge, despite all this publicity about the AZ law, she is the only one that has been able to interview Gov. Brewer on camera multiple times. She hasn’t been on BOR or Hannity, that’s for sure.

She also covers economic and international affairs in depth, which others do not.

Consider me a fan of Greta’s.

This is rather interesting --- high powered, well educated, super articulate and obviously HIGH IQ Greta van Sustaren is honestly admitting that a viewer email seriously UPSET her.

Wow, that's the first time someone in the public eye has every honestly admitted something like this.

LOL

Greta is shape and quick and has a good sense of humor.

“Never ask an open ended question!”

Only the dimmest of intellects violate this rule.

She did, therefore she is.

She’s a $cientologist. That’s enough to call almost everything else she says/believes into question.
