The New York Times Wants Hillary To Answer A Freaking Question
Daily Caller ^ | May 6, 2015 | Alex Griswold

Posted on 05/07/2015 5:04:57 AM PDT by lbryce

The New York Times appears to be openly losing patience with Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her refusal to take any sort of questions from the political press corps. (RELATED: Liberal WaPo Columnist: ‘I’d Be Livid’ As A Reporter Covering Inaccessible Hillary)

Times reporter Amy Chozick — no doubt irritated with constantly following Clinton from location to location without asking a single question — published a blog post Wednesday revealing what questions The Times would have asked if they had gotten the chance.

“Since she declared her candidacy on April 12, Hillary Rodham Clinton has answered just seven questions from reporters,” the intro to the piece reads. “This is the first installment of a regular First Draft feature in which The Times will publish questions we would have asked Mrs. Clinton had we had the opportunity.”

It's very strange that the Washington Post would refer to The Times' relentless desire to get Hillary to talk about her campaign issues as that of a "Bully Pulpit". Doesn't the post Want Answers To Hillary's questionable Campaign Practices,As Well?

Why would the Times expect her to answer questions when she will not answer questions from the Congress regarding the e mail fiasco?

That’s why she went to a high school the other day to talk to kids about immigration. She could lie all she wanted to and the kids would never ask a question, and go home believing every word.

She is a poor speaker and she knows it.

If she gets the communist nomination for dictator, she will never debate the presidential nominee. And the RINO’s will just let it happen, unless we get someone with guts, like Cruz.

She is American royalty and therefore totally above the law and the press corpse.

Run, Hillaryous, run! The slimes are chasing you. Clown-car, side-show, circus-freaks prep.

Vaginas don’t have to say anything. They just have to show up. Bill has Hillary well trained.

Bullcrap.

If they were upset, the democrat press would publish NOTHING relating to Hillary!'s schedule or statements or events. There would be a news blackout on their pages until she consented to answer a question from a so-called journalist. But the democrat press is still content to function as her press office and agenda distribution channel.

“If she gets the communist nomination for dictator, she will never debate the presidential nominee.”

You make me (rightly or wrongly) think of the Star Trek TOS episode “Patterns of Force”. Kirk and Spock ultimately discover that John Gill, the renegade Federation observer who was supposedly the Fuehrer, was under control through strong drugs courtesy of a group who clandestinely ran the Nazi government on that planet. I wonder if a similar sort of thing is going on here with Hillary being used as a front and not too dissimilar from the John Gill character.

Clinton is going to try to fly under the radar all of the way to the White House. Maybe the press whores will figure that out and hammer on her a bit.

*************************************

Not exactly true. She “responded” to 7 questions, but she didn’t truly “answer” several of them with anything meaningful, in the typical Clintonian modus operandi. She’ll do the same during her one appearance before Congress and odds are, they’ll let her get away with it.

I remember bill oreilly screaming that if hitlary ever ran he would make sure she doesn’t win.

Don’t remember what had happened though at the time he said it.

Then again he backed down when he met bj at a party.

She is a poor speaker and she knows it.

25 years or more on the national scene and she can't prevent herself from tipping off lies and exaggerations with 'Y'know' as she did here with the ludicrous 'immigrants pay taxes.'

The media training is hilarious to watch in her awkward, obvious attempts to implement it. Her new low-alto speaking range is meant to keep her away from the screeching but she merely comes across as even more boring.

And the question they should ask is, “Do you suffer from TBI-incurred dementia?”

Sure, right now they're on Hillary about answering questions. Forgive my skepticism, but I think they want some answers now because it's still early in the process. They want the slime to come out and be forgotten by the general election. I think that they see a good possibility that the Jebster won't be the opponent, it'll be Cruz or Rand. In that situation she'll be hammered in the debates. If she's already answered, they can ignore it as "old news". It's the old Clinton ploy, release the poop on Friday and by Monday it's forgotten.

Mark my words, by the general election, The Times and all the rest of the media will be goose stepping behind Hillary.

Well bully for the Slimes, as they continue to ask conservative candidates irrelevant stupid “gotcha” questions that they will never ever consider asking of a ‘rat candidate, because they already know they’ll get the “correct” answer from them. This country is becoming so totalitarian-we are already into the realm of “thought crime”.
