CNN Soledad vs Ben-Viniste...

[berner59]

Anyone see her interview with him just a bit ago?? She had him on to "fact check" Clinton's "angry outburst"... Everything Clinton said was true according to Ben-Veniste and Soledad was squirming to find SOMETHING untrue...it was great!! She of course at the end said that Ben-Veniste was a Dem and wouldn't other members of the commission possibly disagree with him? He said "NO"!!!!

Take that Soledad...

1. Yes, I caught that. She couldn't 'corner' Ben-Veniste. I

hardly ever watch that a.m. program so didn't realize what a tool she is.

2. SoSoBad doesn't even try to cover her Pro-Bush Junta bias. n/t

3. Ben-Viniste would be a hard cookie to crack

He's always impressed me with the way he can put two and two together

She's out of her league with him there.

4. Ahhhh, it was GOOD

He didn't allow her an inch- not a silly millimeter.
And, Ha ha ha Soledad, your show has played President Clinton's "rage" so many times this morning that the good old USA is getting a clear picture thanks to YOU.

I love it.

5. I used to really like Soledad...

when she was on MSNBC. Her CNN persona isn't as interesting or enjoyable.

6. True story!

I actually rode on an elevator w/Ben-Veniste a few days ago. Someone complimented him on the job the 9/11 Commission had done, & he said thank you, but that he was upset about the way the ABC 9/11 movie twisted the facts. I think he, and many experts, are tired of the way the right-wing is trying to blame Clinton for what happened.

7. Yes I saw it and it was GREAT!

Soledad, take that you right wing bitch!

Edit to add: He also said what he thought about the ABC 911 show.
He said it was factually wrong and people should READ the 911 report
for themselves, not listen to ABC

8. Soleded is transparent -

and I don't like her.

10. O'Brien has proved time and time again that she is a right wing

street walker in the service of BushCo.

11. Richard Ben-Veniste

An American hero. This guy helped take down Nixon!

My favorite Ben-Veniste moment?

BEN-VENISTE: Isn't it a fact, Dr. Rice, that the Aug. 6 P.D.B. warned against possible attacks in this country? And I ask you whether you recall the title of that P.D.B.

RICE: I believe the title was Bin Laden Determined To Attack Inside the United States. Now, the P.D.B.

BEN-VENISTE: Thank you.

RICE: No, Mr. Ben-Veniste...

BEN-VENISTE: I will get into the...

RICE. I would like to finish my point here.

BEN-VENISTE: I didn't know there was a point.

RICE: Given that - you asked me whether or not it warned of attacks.

BEN-VENISTE: I asked you what the title was.

12. Give Costello The Mic!

She strikes me as smarter and less of a tool than Ms PerkyButtBrain.
