The reporter on the left is clearly an Obot worshiper. You can see how uncomfortable she becomes during the interview. Moreover, she sounded as if she was still in high school asking the teacher question on answers she does not like. For instance, one of her questions she used the word, “like”.

However, the reporter on the right did an outstanding and professional job and great questions.

when he told her that rice was a crazed person

That totally cracked me up.

I recall that when Michael Sheuer came out with his Bin Laden book, which appeared to criticize Bush's strategy in Iraq, the lib networks (including CNN) were falling all over themselves to interview him. Now that he's going against "their" President's policy, they have him on but grill him like a hostile witness.

She is former Fox News anchor, Kiran Chetry

I'm flummoxed.....they are just now sending them in....not weeks ago?

They probably were there "weeks ago" but the CIA-entry just got the official presidential seal of approval, so it can be "ramped-up" significantly.

The (apparently reasonable one) on the right is Kiran Chetry, formerly of FNC. She seems to have learned something from Brit Hume.

If not for the Obamabot on the left it would have been a pretty good interview, whether you agree with Mr. Scheuer’s positions or not.

Haven’t they admitted that there was a clandestine Presidential Finding weeks ago that gave zerO authority to send in covert ops?

Seems to me that the plausible deniability is gone and was likely never there in the first place. I want to hear some Democrats railing on about the Imperial Presidency.

Krauthammer made some comment about there being no boots on the ground because they were issued “shower shoes”. I think he meant “flip flops”.

No one is supposed to be upset because this is “normal operations” and besides, there only a “very few” Marines. Compared to what? IRRC, the initial admitted deployment was 2200. This is 2x the reported number of *rebels*, aka Al Queda.
