There's just a couple of minutes. Lliterally. Chris gets to ask a couple of questions. Literally. Not four. Not five. Not three. Two. And he gets to RESPOND to the answer or non-answer, as the case may be. Then the interviewee gets to answer (or not answer, again), and Chris can insist on responding (until Joe Scabby interrupts and makes Chris let the responder respond AGAIN).
All of that happens in a couple of minutes. There's no long, drawn out discussion of deep issues. They weren't discussing foreign policy or foreign operatives or that crap.
Everyone was taking turns asking Priebus about the convention, about political strategy, about the advertising. Priebus is NOT the candidate.
About Tweety, he is by nature an emotional, impassioned person. That's his downfall....and his charm. It's what gives him the balls to tell a "birther" on his show "that's nuts! That's just crazy talk!" when no one else would say it that forthrightly.
No one's perfect. Not Tweety. Not me. And not you. Have you heard ANY other Democrat on TV address these clowns that directly? No! Rachel doesn't because the clowns won't even talk to her. Same thing with Big Ed.
O'Donnell is exactly like Tweety, BTW. Only more irritating and more partisan, and absolutely will not let people answer sometimes.
