What was the point then of putting on an obviously biased apologist for Obama on a “news” show. If he didn’t want to respond himself then he should at least have had someone on the other side to present both sides.
Take a look at the video - he was completely unprepared to deal with the guy and the guy left with a smirk knowing that he had gotten the better of the exchange.
And what on earth does the fact that Scott’s son is a West Point Grad have to do with any of this?
I like Scott. He’s a good guy. That doesn’t cause me to think he didn’t screw up royally here. And not limiting this to Scott, it happens all the time on Fox News.
There’s just no real fire-in-the-belly Conservatism displayed by Scott here.
Fox News staff allows the Left to score point after point after point after point without pushing back.
Ultimately that comes off as, “Well, Fox News doesn’t even disagree with the charges made. The charges must be credible.”
That’s not to say that at other times Fox News staff doesn’t push back, but you can’t allow any of the Left’s charges to be aired without pointing out the wildly inaccurate propaganda and letting it be left hanging.
This and the fact that we allow luke warm buckets of horse sweat like Bill Kristol to speak for Conservatives, just kills us over time.
Kristol wouldn’t know Conservatism if it bit him on the nose.
Thwe lefties on Yahoo who are applauding this miscreant have yet to connect the dots to realize that this guy expresses what the left thinks about human life. So what that ambassador was on their side. He is dead, move along.
The left won’t shed a tear when they start killing their own with Obamacare.
What’s amazing in reading the comments on this thread is that so many freepers think that Scott WON the exchange!
Take a look how most other sites are reporting this...

I don’t disagree with your take as presented in this post.
The Lefty built a wall of lies, then Scott essentially said, “Okay then, good-bye...”
To Ricks and Obama and the democrats and to the liberal media, the Benghazi terror attack and the four dead, is just “a bump on the road”. To them, they must never take their eyes from the greater prize, and that is to “win at all costs”. It’s the same mindset that justifies the murdering of the many millions in the Soviet Union and the many millions in China. It’s also the same kind of mentality and agenda which justifies events like the Holocaust.
Benghazi-Coward Obama Impeachment File.
From what I remember, FoxNews DID report on contractors when they were killed in Iraq. How many other news networks, besides Fox, spent any time on the four contractors who were killed and burned, and their bodies hung on the bridge?
