Has any reporter asked Secretary Clinton specifically about her respect for Kissinger?

[DefenseLawyer]

I know most of us here found it puzzling at best and appalling at worst, and I've seen plenty of mention on Twitter and the like and a scant few articles. But I haven't seen an actual reporter ask her "Tell us what foreign policy positions of Henry Kissinger you agree with" or "How do you feel about Kissinger's role in East Timor or Chile" etc. This seems especially relevant since it has been mentioned repeatedly by her on the trail in recent days. Seems like a tiny bit of follow up would be in order by the media.

1. Yes... Several times.

Try Google.

6. Who would that be?

I haven't found one. Help a brother out!

2. Probably not.

I think the 'establishment' admires and respects her.

So totally clueless and out of touch.

3. You'd think there'd be a few real journalists, who'd ask such obviously relevant questions

Especially since Hills love to tout her foreign policy chops. Very good question.

Calling Glenn Greenwald & Lee Fang!! Oh that's right, all Clinton does when asked
embarrassing questions by Fang is go "HA-ha-ha!!!" and turn away.

4. I think there will be increasing scrutiny.

It's a bad issue for her...she really shot herself in the foot. Self-inflicted wound (again), can't blame her staff.

5. Hell I'm still waiting for someone to ask her Why She's More Electable when she has only

won 2 senate races and lost 1 Presidential race.

7. Democrats need to adopt the Trump method

Or at least that's the impression I get from some folks. There's the absolutism of having to call out associations. The saying "politics makes strange bedfellows" is apt because, until this century, the various sides actually worked together/against each other to get shit done.

But now shit don't get done cause nobody works.

So if Clinton isn't calling out Kissinger as evil, she's cozying up to evil.

Which essentially means we want more of the Trump method of calling people assholes, pussies, or whatever else floats your boat.

Have at it. Further evidence of empire in final stages. I'll be glad to be done with it. I'm still pulling for a New England nation when all is said and done.

8. Kissinger is still held up as THE foreign policy heavyweight by the foreign policy

establishment, so I don't think it's a matter of anything more than Clinton trying to place herself in that league by association.

9. Has Sanders ever expressed an opinion on Kissinger?

10. If he started touting Kissinger's support on the stump

I would want someone to ask him about it.

11. The MSM gave Kissinger a pass long ago. He was good copy.

His womanizing back in the days when womanizing was admirable to many. His diplomacy by jet. His personal story was interesting. He was relaxed in interviews. Sometimes funny. He was colorful.

The MSM wants to sell ad space. The only way to accomplish that is to give the people something to read and hear about and sometimes they will make a deal with the devil to do it.

They still do even today.

12. No, and I have blogged on the newspapers for this ommition
