Gotta disagree, my friend, and actually, it’s a good thing. Aside from being one of the few reasonably attractive and feminine Dem talking heads, Powers is farily, intelligent, an asture political operative, and more towards the center than the vast majority of Dems. In the past, she’s been willing to criticize the Obama administration often. The fact that she attempted to dismiss the Philly Black Panther voter intimidation video as “move on, no big deal here,” IMHO shows just how much the Dems fear that it will in fact become a REALLY BIG DEAL, and blow up in their faces.. Powers is a Fox regular, often appears on the panel on Bret’s show, and has even done the Fox News Sunday show a few times...so she’s one of the semi-regulars. I think she thought she’d be allowed to spout her blather as a counter to the GOP talking head, with Megyn as the “fair and balanced” moderator. What changed the dynamic was when Megyn became actively involed in the debate, and took off on Powers, saying that Powers didn’t know “what she was talking about” and effectively calling her an idiot on live TV..That’s just not done..
So where we differ is I'm saying she's stupid for thinking she could get away with such a patently stupid argument and you think she's just being exceedingly dishonest like a typical liberal.
Stupid or dishonesty...either trait makes her unattractive in my eyes.
oh, btw...I think you're correct, Powers thought she'd get a pass as most guests do, but her lie was so blatantly offensive Megyn wasn't willing to let the lie go unchallenged. Maybe she should have let her conservative proponent do it, but I have to admit, I have a similar personality "flaw"...I hate dishonesty.
Kirsten uses the same tactics everytime she participates in a discussion....spewing talking points over the other person. She doesn’t answer questions or offer intelligent conversation. She just spews and keeps her lips moving.
Hopefully it'll be done more often in the future though.
