Put that little woman in her place Rand, you the man after all. You, with your overinflated ego and your belief in your self importance. Hey Rand, you can take your misogyny and stuff it. Oh and you can take that Gawd awful rug off your head and stuff that too. It makes you look like a fool, but we knew that already.
It looks like something the cat dragged in. Yikes

I speak in smilies~
You got me, beautiful picture Cha.
And Sigh~ a fight to see through.
The sun will come out tomorrow. Or in the east it will be in 4 days or so. 72 hours of snow expected here. Stalled storm, it is not stopping.

Sorry, not trying to rub anything in.. For the impending snowstorm, she

Shit! It's coming down as we speak.
I like snow, I sure as hell do not like 50 plus inches in 2 plus weeks. And the cold temps.
Cha
(297,275 posts)I like it from a distance.
Stay as warm as you possibly can, she.. I know it's not always easy but sending you warm fireplacey cheery thoughts through cyberspace!

(83,785 posts)Or maybe it is because I kicked the heat back on.
Big hug for you~

Just looked out, light and fluffy snow. It is coming down on us.
Yikes Cha!

(25,537 posts)My mouth was open at the end when she apologized and he (yet again) said, oh, you're twisting everything and not objective and these interviews are crappy (implied: BECAUSE LIBERAL MEDIA). Massive disrespect. I can't think of a bad enough name to call him.

to answer or explain their answer.
I don't like Paul much but maybe she learned a lesson that's not the way to interview

(2,331 posts)She didn't answer her question before he got a chance to do so. He constantly interrupted her. She was doing what we say we want interviewers to do, ask tough but fair questions. He didn't let her finish, he ignored the question especially regarding the ophthalmology board, he was thoroughly RUDE and unpresidential. I don't know why you're ignoring the facts, unless you have an agenda.

(15,596 posts)Excellent interview. Let 'em expose themselves.

Let the person speak first or don't interview him.

If Howard Dean shushed Megyn Kelley, we'd think it was pretty cool.
I would.
A-Schwarzenegger
(15,596 posts)with such contemptuous, relentless arrogance, I sure as
hell wouldn't cheer. The CNBC interviewer was a champ throughout,
asking hard relevant questions & sticking to her guns.
glasshouses
(484 posts)Yeah that's the way to be a good anchor
A-Schwarzenegger
(15,596 posts)If you see him, tell him it's 2015, and women get to
ask politicians tough questions now, and they don't
have to wait for them to stop bullshitting before they speak.

A-Schwarzenegger
(15,596 posts)Yeah, I'm sure gender had nothing to do with it.

(484 posts)For some reason many of these young anchors think
this aggressive style of interviewing is the way to be.
They learn that where?
A-Schwarzenegger
(15,596 posts)Neither did he. That's why he left with a trouserload.
