"Do you dream of a fairytale wedding?"/'I think I’m well beyond the fairytale marriage stage."

Piers Morgan inanely interrogating Condoleezza Rice about marriage.

jsled म्हणाले...: It isn't inane; he was trying to get her to slip up and make some indication that she's a lesbian. That would be an interviewing success, really.

Being unaware of which state your interviewee lives, on the other hand. Not inane, but close.; २०/१/११, १०:२१ PM
Kev म्हणाले...: (the other kev)

The show is quickly becoming this decade's Wilton North Report.; २०/१/११, १०:२१ PM
I'm Full of Soup म्हणाले...: Amazes me that the geniuses at CNN thought they should even continue this type of TV show format after Larry King moved on.; २०/१/११, १०:२७ PM
Sprezzatura म्हणाले...: This clip wasn't an interrogation, even in the light banter sense of 'interrogation,' never mind enhanced interrogation techniques.

Unlike Palin, Condi isn't fishing for coddling by Althouse-types. So, don't bother, it's actually insulting to Condi. Condi can handle herself. Now, how has Palin been hurt by the lame stream media today?; २०/१/११, १०:३० PM
Sprezzatura म्हणाले...: BTW, when are the cons here going to do their opo research on Morgan?

There's a lot there.; २०/१/११, १०:३२ PM
Irene म्हणाले...: "Well, you're quite a catch, aren't you."

Condi civilly replies, "Why, thank you."

Irene thinks, "Bite me."; २०/१/११, १०:३६ PM
JAL म्हणाले...: That's so freakin' unbelievable.; २०/१/११, १०:३८ PM
JAL म्हणाले...: So does this guy know how to spell s-e-x-i-s-t?; २०/१/११, १०:३९ PM
Irene म्हणाले...: JAL, I suspect he thinks it's F-L-A-T-T-E-R-Y.; २०/१/११, १०:४० PM
David म्हणाले...: Her husband George Bush was openly sleeping with another woman.; २०/१/११, १०:४० PM
David म्हणाले...: I think growing up in Birmingham was more than enough preparation for this turkey.

Condi Rice is such a puzzle to the left that they have given up trashing her.; २०/१/११, १०:४३ PM
Penny म्हणाले...: "JAL, I suspect he thinks it's F-L-A-T-T-E-R-Y."

If you're talking about Piers saying she is quite a catch, Irene, then I too suspect he thought it was flattery. It was intended to be, and Condi Rice accepted it as it was intended.

She's a class act.; २१/१/११, १:०२ AM
Penny म्हणाले...: Do you really think that women who climb to lofty positions like Condi Rice are focused on feminist slights?

People like her have much more important things with which to concern themselves.; २१/१/११, १:११ AM
Unknown म्हणाले...: That is a inert brat; २१/१/११, ६:४१ AM
Irene म्हणाले...: It depends where you position a "slight" on your offense
meter.

"Out of context," the banter was flattering, and Dr. Rice was appropriately gracious. Taken as a whole, the interview set my meter buzzing.

Imagine if the interviewee had been Barbara Boxer? How long would she have elegantly buoyed through the saccharine cooing?; २१/१/११, ७:३१ AM
