Susan Rice bolts from podium, unable to answer reporters' questions at White House press briefing

The National Security Advisor of the United States did something astonishing yesterday. In the middle of a reporter’s questioning, she bolted from the podium of the White House pressroom, saying, “Nice to see you,” fleeing a situation she evidently was unable to cope with.

The question that caused Ms. Rice to flee was a fairly simple one: whether or not the president has authorized the bombing of targets in Syria. Rice responded multiple times that the timing of strikes would not be released, but that was not the question at hand, and reporters pressed her on whether her boss had authorized strikes.

SuzyQ probably had to go to the bathroom real bad.

That's what happens when you're full of shit.

Weird huh. I kinda thought that she’d get briefed by her underlings/henchmen and then answer the “journalists” questions with firm answers.

May be intentional.

It might be her turn to go under the Obama Bus.

Watch the video (on Breitbart). Before the question was asked the press aide can be heard saying “last question, last question”. The question was asked and answered, and then Rice left, smiling.

Let’s let the other side invent stories out of nothing. We don’t have to.

The Susan Rice Video Room is on the lower level.

Not to mention all the Muslims he has brought into his staff. It’s actually quite comical.

I like to bounce around in time - seeing events of the past as happening right now and seeing current events as though they are ancient history. I’ve both cried over ancient events and laughed hysterically over current event tragedy.

Sure, this is a tragedy, but a well deserved one. In a democracy you not only get the government you want. You get the government you deserve. Didn’t vote for it? Do what I did and follow Revelation 18:4. But more importantly, know that this life is a mist and not unlike a video game or The Matrix, and eternity is what is truly real. The cares of this world will pass away, as will this world.

It’s basically made of only two things:

1. Nothing
2.The will of God

Take away the second and what do you have?

cruz walks off after realizing there was no reason to stay.. It’s front page above the fold news.


Cruz told them exactly why he was leaving and >then< left.

He didn’t just walk off.

Since I don’t have cable, I listen to the radio. It sounds like State Department briefings are being given by high school cheerleaders or valley girls.

The New York Times is downsizing their 'news' room again... I wonder if there's a connection to this type of biased 'reporting'? LOL - bet on it.

It became a bad movie a couple of years ago. Now it’s a comedy.

I see it as a tragedy

Neither.

It's a Farce.

A badly-written script you know will bomb on opening night, but secure in the knowledge that the critics (media) will give you rave reviews and drive the unwitting theater mavens to buy more tickets.

“Political Movie”, from the folks who brought you “Scary Movie”.

Same here. Even the NPR reporters sound like college kids full of themselves. But then there is “mom”, also known as Cokie, the old liberal battle axe as the faux “voice of reason”.

She thinks she’s still in grade school where you run away when you can’t answer questions.

Overhype, according to the video on Breitbart.com.

She didn’t bolt.

Background comment mentioned something about her having a meeting to go to.

The new presser guy stepped in to continue.
