1. I wish she had a better question |
|
She asked something obvious and something Obama would never answer.

10. Her question was great and precisely on point as to why our Middle East policy is a joke. (NT) |

I wish Helen would update her book, "Front Row at the White House". I'd sure like to read her behind-the-scenes insight from the last 8 years.

8. What was the point of asking him to confirm Israel's possession of nukes? |
|
I don't see where asking him to state it publicly is a win for anyone.
However, I did laugh when she asked it then watched him dance around it.

9. She brought it out of the closet and to the public's attention. |
|
Which is why she's a great reporter.

13. Well, for starts, it would be honest. |
|
And it would help people to understand why some other powers in the Middle East *ALSO* want nuclear weapons.
An awful lot of Americans think that, e.g., Iran would be *THE FIRST* nuclear power in the region instead of the third.

14. I would venture to say 80% of Americans believe that, hence |
|
why it was such an important question to ask.
