Hillary Responds to Accusations Her Campaign Planted Questions At Public Appearances

Sunday , November 11, 2007 By Major Garrett

SIOUX CITY, Iowa — Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton responded to allegations Sunday that her presidential campaign had planted questions during public appearances.

At a media event in Waterloo, Iowa, Clinton responded to a reporter's question about two separate incidents, one that occurred this week at a biodiesel plant in Newton, and the other in April on a farm outside Fort Madison, both in Iowa.

"Well it was news to me" Clinton said. "And neither I nor my campaign approve of that. And it will certainly not be tolerated."

The reporter went on to ask if she knew of other incidents beyond those reported.

Clinton responded saying, "You know everything I know."

Clinton's presidential campaign came under fire Friday when FOX News first reported that a Grinnell College student was prompted to ask Clinton a question about climate change.

I've documented the depredations of this ghastly woman ( and for whatever it's worth, I always regarded her as the worse side of "the two for one Presidency..." ) until I was blue in the face- click the picture and scroll back, to see the latest Sock Puppetry, Cheat the Working Class, "mask falls off during the debates," Lesbian rumors, fundraising scandals, and so much more:

The Panel with Chris Wallace comments on Questiongate. “It takes a village to ask a question,” says Bill Kristol...calls it manipulative. Brit and Mara think it’s no big deal. Whatever.

Depends on what the definition of “planted” is.

Yeah. The problem is they won't report it.

Oh, so what if her staff planted questions in a town meeting. That would be a petty criticism. What I would recomend is we focus on the new Kathleen Willey book. From what I heard that sounds real scary.

The reporter's question was probably a plant too.His questioning of her was a softball.

Q: If she can’t run & monitor the actions of her own campaign, how can she run the country?

"Well it was news to me" Clinton said.

If that represents the level of control hClinton has over her own campaign staff (of a few hundred people), how does she expect to be able to operate as chief executive over Executive Branch of the Federal government which has hundreds of thousands of employees?

This is another example of hClintons incapability. Giuliani is correct: she has no executive experience -- and it shows.

The panel, especially Bill Kristol, always seems ready to give Hitlery a break. Today, Bill Kristol said something like “it’s clear that Senator Clinton is an experienced and capable candidate” — my wife responded “Says WHO?” What experience does she have that qualifies her for the Presidency? 8 years in a dysfunctional White House as “First Lady”? The pastry chef also has 8 years of experience in the White House.

Bill Kristol should stick with his love affair with the Straight-Talkin’ John McCain — that’s what he’s really good at.
