Megyn Kelly Explodes At Liberal Guest Over Benghazi Talking Points
Mediaite ^ | May 16th, 2013 | Matt Wilstein

Posted on 05/16/2013 6:56:29 PM PDT by Mozilla

Fox News’ Megyn Kelly got into a contentious back and forth argument with Democratic strategist Simon Rosenberg Thursday afternoon over questions involving whether Obama administration officials deliberately misled the press and the American public on the Benghazi attack talking points. By the end of the segment, Kelly was uncharacteristically screaming at her guest to stop lying. “Come on, Simon!” she shouted. “Can we get some honesty?”

The discussion, which also included former George W. Bush speechwriter and conservative columnist Mark Thiessen, revolved around the recently-released emails from the White House that show just how the administration’s talking points were changed prior to U.N. ambassador Susan Rice‘s appearance on the Sunday talk shows.

Rosenberg immediately raised some ire in Kelly by suggesting that “we haven’t learned anything new” about the story in the last few weeks, suggesting that “we know that for several weeks afterwards the administration was confused about what happened” in Benghazi.

“No, they weren’t,” Kelly shot back. “We don’t know that.” On Press Secretary Jay Carney‘s assertion that only one word of the talking points were changed, Kelly added, “Maybe I’m just naive because I was still believing Jay Carney until I saw this evidence.”

When Rosenberg insisted that he didn’t think anyone in the administration purposefully misled anyone, Kelly raised her voice, asking, “You’re telling me Jay Carney was being truthful? He made a mistake twice in November and then again in May? Come on, Simon! It was not a mistake to say that it was only stylistic changes and only one word was changed. That’s not a mistake when we now know that the White House was the one meeting on this issue. Can we have some honesty? Wouldn’t it be so great?”

Megyn Kelly expects honesty from a liberal when its crisis mode time. Why would she be so foolish to expect ethical behavior from these clowns? Doesn’t she understand the double-standards game? Democrats believe they have a right to act corrupt and when caught red-handed they tell the MSM that these are conspiracy theories allegations hatched by evil Republicans. Don’t forget another line used by Pelosi; the GOP has an obsession against Obama.

Not likely one can get honesty from the left.

Child residing in belly is not necessary for random eruption to take place. At least that has been my experience.

12 edits shows multiple layers of coverup.

Come on, all TV personalities have to wear makeup, plus she's pregnant. It's probably wreaking havoc with her complexion.

I haven’t seen Megyn in such fine fettle since the time she dismembered Kirsten Powers over the Black Panther voter intimidation issue.

That’s right. Megyn seems to be mad at the lies in recent weeks by Obama and his henchmen more and more.

Megyn is the most fun to watch when she goes off over funny business like this.

Megyn doesn’t look like this now. Her features look sharper and her hairdo is terrible.
Martha McCallum...now there’s a beautiful woman.

Megyn would look great on a beach or with a baby spitting up over her shoulder.
She's the definition of a real lady.

..............When I saw that the video only had a few hundred views and how retarded the video was..................

Yep, I remember the same! The site that I looked at, maybe a day or two after the Benghazi attack linked by FR, showed some gay guy spooking inside/outside a tent, I noted that there were 348 views. (On this U-Tube site, have no idea how may other U-Tube sites were operational.

Sent a link to my Obama kissing wife, and we both laughed at the amateur video upset!

(Of course, I’m not allowed to mention it forever more, lest she get upset that I’m dissing her hero!)

I can’t stand Simon Rosenberg

If you look up either the word "smug" or "smirk" in the dictionary, you will see a picture of Simon Rosenberg there.
