Greta: I'm Not Looking for a Candidate Who Can Make Up the Biggest Lie
Fox Nation ^ | April 14, 2015 | Greta Van Susteren

Posted on 04/14/2015 4:04:19 PM PDT by Kaslin

Let's all go "Off the Record" for a minute. I don't care who you vote for. That is so just your business. But I do have a thought about Campaign 2016 and those poisonous negative ads - basically obnoxious conduct by adults that we would never condone by children. Adult politicians saying the worst things about each other and then, of course, we're all guilty - we all watch.

And I don't know about you, but I'm not looking for the candidate who can say the meanest thing, make up the biggest lie about their opponent or smear the opponent even if that opponent might deserve it. I'm looking for a real leader.

Admit it, real leaders are way too busy looking at problems, ways to solve those problems, to sit around dreaming up something rotten to say about another in a video or negative ad. And face it, if you don't have a record of success, you don't have any ideas, the only way to win is to knock the other guy down. You know that's wrong because we have so many problems that demand American leadership, from the barbarism of ISIS and chaos in the Middle East and jobs and health care right back here at home.

“Adult politicians saying the worst things about each other and then, of course, we’re all guilty - we all watch. “

Hawkeye: That was supposed to be a secret, Radar! Why did you tell Frank and Hotlips?

Radar: I couldn’t help it! They dragged it out of me!

Hawkeye: Dragged it out of you? How?

Radar: By listening.

Well . . . if that’s what you want in a leader, then how about the media quits lying and covering up for Obama? Set an example?

Another thread of garbage, ad hominem attacks and a dearth of intellectual commentary

This is like when the talking heads rail against negative advertising, Republicans only. It’s a tactic to attack Republicans, never hear this about Democrats.

Usually when a political commentator says something like this it means they're secretly getting behind a really corrupt candidate.

In other words the Clintons are back.
