»» Columnists Here’s How Hillary Clinton Responded to Fox Reporter’s Request for Her to Take Questions by Andrew Kirell | 12:31 pm, May 19th, 2015 video 20

Since announcing her presidential run a month ago, Hillary Clinton has rarely taken questions from the media. It’s gotten so bad that the New York Times has taken to asking hypothetical questions for when she does start answering; and the Washington Post has begun counting the minutes since her last media conversation.

Her reluctance to answer questions has been underscored by ongoing controversies surrounding foreign donations to the Clinton Foundation and her use of faulty intel from an ally with business interests in Libya, among others.

And then on Tuesday afternoon, while taking questions from supporters at a Cedar Rapids, Iowa, campaign stop, this happened:

Wow. So her proudest accomplishment, the thing she’s most proud of, what really sets her apart from her predecessors in a way that should inspire pride in her for us, as her loyal subjects, as a point of pride that none of us should forget and all of us can rightfully bask in, beyond any mere “accomplishments” like on some kind of to-do list with items checked off in a linear, non-nuanced fashion, where the mere “getting things done” of a task supersedes where that task fits in the overall worldview. And that’s the source of her pride, that we should all share in.

“”This could be a fun election, watching her self-destruct.””

A reminder for the organizers of debates to have a supply of straight jackets on hand. I think it would be necessary to have more than one handy for her!!!!

Crazy Eyes. She is sociopathic.

Is that why staff underlings at the Clinton White House and on her campaigns were told never to make eye contact with her?

I think she’s confident she has blacks, women,& the low info voters. Sadly, she may be right.

I hope she makes the media angry at her. She’s not the first black president...

How dare you peasants even think of questioning her Highness! It doesn’t matter if she answered or not. It takes time for her to answer because she can’t incriminate herself in anyway. You should know that by now, the Clintons are masters of taking a turd and turning it into a bar of chocolate for their followers to eat. It would not surprise me if she didn’t want a Presidential debate. She is not looking to be President, she’s looking to be a Royal.

I heard her speaking on that topic. She essentially said that she’ll respect the State Department’s timetable, but if there’s any way they can get those sooner she would prefer that. Doublespeak.

What is wrong with you people?! Has the liberal media not already proven to you that questions don't matter?...

Charlie Rose and Tom Brokaw discussing candidate Obama

We act like this is such a surprise. Sheesh, and we turn our backs and get whacked over the head with the folding chair AGAIN!!!

“It should be obvious to anyone that the reason Hillary has avoided questions is, quite simply, that she believes that she can get elected without doing so. The follow up point if that she believes that precisely because the main stream media (NY Times, Wash Post, etc.) has allowed her to get away with it in the past.”

The question is: Why have they decided to stop covering for her?

Answer: Because the Obama administration does not want her elected.

Hillary is not Micheal Obama.

Hillary is not an Obama third term.

There is no love lost between the Obamas and the Clintons.

Obamas election strategy has always been to take out the most effective (or only) opposition through leaks of scandals long before the actual campaign.

I actually pity people who, through arrogance, actually lack the virtue of shame.

They believe it's their greatest achievement, the very essence of power and success itself.

Yet, despite their hollow and forced laughter, they live in constant, profound terror of the total destruction which ceaselessly hunts them, and which their very souls know is their inevitable fate.

God is not mocked.

She won't motivate blacks to go out and vote unless she changes her name to Hillaniqua or something. On the other hand, she'll probably have people casting their votes for them without their knowing it.

Hillary Clinton is a polarizing, calculating, disingenuous, insincere, ambitious, non-inevitable, seemingly entitled, over-confident, secretive person who will do anything to win, represents the past, and is out of touch.

If she becomes president, then following hussein, it will be very clear to me that God has put America under judgment.

And those are her good points.

I foresee Hillary sitting on Bill’s lap like a dummy and answering questions in Bill’s voice. Bill is going to have to learn to talk without moving his lips. And that will be hard to because he always bites his lower lip.
