Megyn Kelly vs. Donna Brazile: Did You Receive Debate Question Beforehand?
Real Clear Politics ^ | 10/19/2016 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 10/20/2016 2:57:15 AM PDT by JediJones

"From time to time I get the questions in advance," the email subject was titled in a letter written from Brazile delivered to Podesta's Gmail.

Brazile did not give a coherent explanation other than to say she won't respond to content that was stolen, the hacked emails, and that she will not let herself be "persecuted" by Megyn Kelly who grilled her for an explanation. She also accused Kelly of being a "thief."

"As a Christian woman, I understand persecution," Brazile told Kelly. "Your information is false. What you're -- well, for suggestive e-mails were stolen. You're interested and you're like a thief that wants to bring into the night the things that."

"I have seen so many doctored emails. I have seen things that come from me at 2 in the morning that I don't even send. There are several email addresses that I once used. This has not been verified. This is under investigation," Brazile also said.

"Go to Russia," Brazile said as the segment ended.

Brazile was just establishing her bona fides to be able to claim persecution.

You forgot,
“Uh, that’s real retarded, sir.”

I was having de ja vu listening to Donna fumble around for some retort

Money is stolen in a bank robbery. Finger prints are on the money, and on the shrinkwrap that held the money.

The FBI looks the other way in the bank robbery. But a private party recovers some of the stolen money ... and the finger prints and releases the finger prints on the internet.

Is it unethical for Megyn to use those finger prints in a story about the bank robbery because the finger prints are part of a crime... a bank robbery?

Once Bill Clinton got away with asking such a stupid and dishonest question like “what is the meaning of is” , or however he worded it, from then on out the left knew that they could tell any lie, no matter how preposterous, no matter how big or small, and get away with it with the media. I mean what kind of question was that, what is the meaning of is? Can you, in your wildest dreams, imagine any Republican in the hot seat gerting away with such a question or statement? It wasn’t even spin, or finessing a lie, it was just one of the most absurd deflections from his lies that I’ve ever heard.

Consider this, many of the Wikileaks emails are Hillary’s 33,000 that WE SHOULD HAVE ALREADY HAD. They were produced by gummint employees on gummint time. It was Hillary’s crime to try to hide them. She thought they were destroyed for her but someone leaked them. For Rubio or anyone else to say we should ignore them is stupid. THEY ARE OURS.

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/oct/17/no-voter-fraud-isnt-myth-10-cases-where-its-all-to/

“Here’s 10 examples documenting that voter fraud isn’t a myth and how Mr. Trump’s claims aren’t just speculation.”

1. Dead people voting in Colorado.

A CBS affiliate’s evidence of voter fraud in Colorado in September sparked an immediate investigation by Secretary of State Wayne Williams. A report in Denver exposed multiple incidents in recent years where dead Coloradans were still voting. A dead World War II veteran named John Grosso voted in a 2006 primary election, and a woman named Sara Sosa who died in 2009 cast ballots in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. Mrs. Sosa’s husband Miguel died in 2008, but a vote was cast in his name one year later.

2. Illegals found voting in Virginia; only discovered after they self-reported._

So—I guess the dead people don’t self-report.

Nothing to see there!

Megyn Kelly grilled Brazile about getting questions in advance for Hillary. To suggest that Brazile did not give a coherent response is a gross understatement. She went from bad to worse.

BRAZILE MUMBLES ON "As a Christian woman, I understand persecution. Your information is false. What you're -- well, for suggestive e-mails were stolen. You're interested and you're like a thief that wants to bring into the night the things that. I have seen so many doctored emails. I have seen things that come from me at 2 in the morning that I don't even send. There are several email addresses that I once used. This has not been verified. This is under investigation. Go to Russia," Brazile said as the segment ended.

None of it makes sense. Saying she's a "Christian woman" was odd. Clearly, Brazile planned to play the race card here....suggesting Kelly was persecuting her b/c she was black.

I'm surprised Brazile did not say "Black Democrats Matter" (smirk).

I don’t understand....

Didn’t Hillary assume responsibility for our relations with Russia when she gave them the RESET button? Who else was involved. Oh! I forgot... It’s Bush’s fault!

She is usually pretty smooth, which is what makes her dancing and crumbling here the more notable. She somehow felt entirely confident with the deflection of saying she didn’t get questions from CNN—but then wouldn’t flat out deny having got them or claim that the quoted email in question was fraudulent—obviously because she did receive the questions—whether from Roland directly or someone else in the chain and the email was real.

“Who the hell hires someone who uses words like “respeck” and “aks” for a position with so much public exposure? LOL.”

She was hired for the acts she is willing to perform and being obedient.

"As a Christian woman, I understand persecution," Brazile told Kelly."

I just don't understand how ANY dimocrap can call themselves Christian... Such a farce...

Actually.....on second thought....Brazile finessed the question saying she’s a “Christian.”

Brazile is a Catholic....Kelly had ammo there.....b/c of the Podesta emails dissing Catholics.
