Interviewing Hillary Clinton, Robin Roberts leaves the big question unasked
This brings back memories of when she was on the Today Show discussing her husband's affair with Lewinsky :
LAUER: But you're probably the most credible defender of the president at this time?
CLINTON: Well, I probably know him better than anybody alive in the world. So I would hope I'd be the most credible defender.
LAUER: James Carville, who you know...
CLINTON: Great human being...
LAUER: I'm sure you like him, especially at this time. He has said this is war between the president and Kenneth Starr.
You have said, I understand, to some close friends that this is the last great battle and that one side or the other is going down here.
CLINTON: Well, I don't know if I've been that dramatic. That would sound like a good line from a movie. But I do believe that this is a battle.
I mean, look at the very people who are involved in this. They have popped up in other settings.
This is—the great story here for anybody willing to find it and write about it and explain it is this vast right-wing conspiracy that has been conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president. A few journalists have kind of caught on to it and explained it. But it has not yet been fully revealed to the American public. And actually, you know, in a bizarre sort of way, this may do it.
Later he asks:
LAUER: Let me take you and your husband out of this for a second. Bill and Hillary Clinton aren't involved in this story. If an American president had an adulterous liaison in the White House and lied to cover it up, should the American people ask for his resignation?
CLINTON: Well, they should certainly be concerned about it.
LAUER: Should they ask for his resignation?
CLINTON: Well, I think that—if all that were proven true, I think that would be a very serious offense. That is not going to be proven true. I think we're going to find some other things. And I think that when all of this is put into context, and we really look at the people involved here, look at their motivations and look at their backgrounds, look at their past behavior, some folks are going to have a lot to answer for.

Interviewing Hillary Clinton, Robin Roberts leaves the big question unasked

Not only did she bury the lead, but this "Good Morning America" star didn't even bother to dig it up.
Just a day after Monica Lewinsky released her most detailed account of her relationship with former President Bill Clinton and its fallout in a wide-ranging essay in the June issue of Vanity Fair magazine, "GMA" host Robin Roberts blew an opportunity to follow up on it with Hillary Clinton — a key player in the scandal that threatened to bring down her husband's presidency.
Lewinsky, in her essay, labeled the former First Lady's "tendency" to blame the "other woman" as "troubling."
Roberts interviewed Clinton at a charity event in New York Wednesday, with ABC airing portions, but opted to ignore Lewinsky's comments. An ABC News rep denied that Clinton had asked Roberts to steer clear of the Lewinsky essay.
"There were no restrictions, and Robin was free to ask whatever she wanted," network spokeswoman Heather Riley said. "Having prepared a question on Monica, as the live interview unfolded with the former secretary of state, Robin made the decision to focus on Benghazi and the kidnapping of hundreds of young schoolgirls in Nigeria."
In her Vanity Fair piece, Lewinsky indicated that she is dreading Clinton's potential run for the White House in 2016.
"Despite what some headlines will falsely report about this piece, this is not about Me versus the Clintons," Lewinsky wrote.
"In 2008, when Hillary was running for president, I remained virtually reclusive."
But "when I hear of Hillary's prospective candidacy, I cannot help but fear the next wave of paparazzi, the next wave of 'Where is she now?' stories, the next reference to me in Fox News' coverage of the primaries," she wrote.

What a liar!
Bigots 'big reason' he left GOP, Florida's Crist says
He left because he was getting trounced by Rubio. He discovered "racism" in the party after the polls showed him trailing Rubio by 20 points. What a lying piece of crap!
-----------------------------------------------------
Democrat Charlie Crist is offering up a new and inflammatory reason he left the GOP: Too many Republicans oppose President Barack Obama because he's black.
Crist's remarks, made on Tuesday in an interview with Fusion's Jorge Ramos, instantly drew rebukes from Republicans who said the party-switching former governor was playing the race card.
But Crist said the bigotry against Obama was a "big reason" for his decision to leave the party.
"I couldn't be consistent with myself and my core beliefs, and stay with a party that was so unfriendly toward the African-American president — I'll just go there," Crist said. "I was a Republican and I saw the activists and what they were doing. It was intolerable to me."
Ramos said Crist left the GOP to run as an independent because he was losing the 2010 Senate Republican primary to Marco Rubio. But Crist denied it.
Crist has made race an on-again and off-again theme as he campaigns to get his old job back as a Democrat, his third party affiliation. When he left the GOP four years ago, he never mentioned race.
"Being a flip-flopper is bad enough, but playing the race card to win over voters is pitiful," said Izzy Santa, Republican National Committee spokeswoman.
Crist, saying he was "liberated as a Democrat," also bashed the GOP for being too inflexible and for appearing to be "anti-women, anti-immigrant, anti-minority (and) anti-gay."

What we know and what we don't
News conference right after the Benghazi attack on September 11, 2012.

"Make no mistake we will work with the Libyan government to bring to justice the killers who attacked our people"
It's been almost 2 years now, and even though various network reporters have interviewed some of the perpetrators, (some even bragged about it), there has not been one arrest except for the guy who shot the video.
Why is that?
To this day we don't know Barry's whereabouts when the Benghazi attack unfolded.
Later Barry, with the help of the media, was able to take the IRS scandal, Rosen wiretapping, and Benghazi mix them all together and rebrand them as "phony scandals" . Of course the media sat by again and did nothing. What's phony about 4 dead Americans? Everyday more leaks come out solidifying this was a cover up from the get go. How could we as a nation allow 4 Americans to die without lifting a finger?
Probably the most telling was this:
The very next day after the attack he flew to Las Vegas for a fundraiser. What does that say about the man?
