[Mr. K]

She has really developed and finely honed that smirk to a point where she could go on MSNBC next to Queen Smirky McSmirk herslef -Rachel Maddow

You cannot have a discussion with someone like Soledad. A normal discussion holds the posibility (I would say: the hope) that you might educate me, and with a bit of luck, the possibility that I might educate you. We discuss. We both learn. In the end, we are both better off. Discussion is a great thing.

Soledad does not discuss.

Soledad conducts an interview according to this guideline: "Shut up, Sir, and let me defend Obama."

What's the point of talking to someone like that?

O'brien:

"And STOP staring at my forehead!!!

” nuanced approach to diplomacy is how some people are interpreting it”

Don’t just just love Obama’s nuanced approach to diplomacy?

[kevkrom]

"a nuanced approach to diplomacy is how some people are interpreting it."

King should have cut her off right there and demanded names.

[Venturer]

Soledad inherited her good looks from her father and her brain from her mother.

[rollo tomasi]

This chick needs to pick up a dictionary. This diplomatic "nuance" the chick speaks of is automatically relegated as an apology by admitting nefarious past transgression occurred in Obummer's opinion.

apol·o·gy noun \ə-ˈpä-lə-jē\ plural apol·o·gies Definition of APOLOGY 1 a : a formal justification : defense b : excuse 2a 2 : an admission of error or discourtesy accompanied by an expression of regret 3 : a poor substitute : makeshift

[Sans-Culotte]

Soledad showed the pittbull-like tenacity of a Debbie Wasserman-Schultz in that interview.

[ripley]

She’s so brilliant, so much brighter than those
Christian morons out there, like Mr. King, who only know simplistic remedies as opposed to the brilliant, really-really smart, highly intellectual, nuanced, superior thinking processes of Progressives.

/sarcasm/

[halfright]

Got’em on the end of each boob, too but this is a family board so no pics. I dont wanna get booted.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

What an ignorant tw@*.

A 'nuanced approach to diplomacy'? Gimme a break.

Soledad, If I were to say to you I want to decapitate you and then dismember you because you disrespected my religion, would you not make the assumption that I hate you? Or would you simply consider that a nuanced approach to stocking my freezer for the Winter?

[radpolis]

I’m sorry, but even though Barack Obama didn’t say “I’m sorry” directly he did in diplomaticspeak, which is a more nuanced language, so it was an apology tour.

Obama did call the US arrogant, that is indisputable.

Obama has bashed the United States and Americans abroad, that is indisputable.

Obama told Putin he would disarm us, that is indisputable.

Obama did bow himself before Muslim and Chinese tyrants, that is indisputable.

Prison, I mean Soledad, O'Brien!

What a tool.

The pain you feel today is the strength you'll have tomorrow.

” nuanced approach to diplomacy is how some people are interpreting it”

Nuanced means a subtle or slight difference. So we can say that he went on a "nuanced apology" tour because he never exactly said, "I apologize" or "I'm Sorry".

[GOPJ]

Too bad King didn’t have the picture of Obama bowing to the Sauds... sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words.

[masadaman]

King should have asked O'Brien if burkhas and a clitorectomy are nuanced?

[mike_9958]

King could have simply asked if O’Brien if she knows Arabic or any middle eastern language, and then asked her if that although the speech did not say “I apologize” in English what did it say to the people who were listening to it ?

Do fact checkers take the cultural differences into account ?

We need to get smarter when talking with these people - I like King.

So if Soledad was caught on video taking money and having sex with people in a biker bar restroom would she have to be called a whore to be one?

[Wurlitzer]

She is simply defending the man who forces all of us to pay for her birth control.
