Van Susteren Defends Her Clinton Concussion Conspiracy Colleagues

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on January 07, 2013 · Flag

Greta Van Susteren appeared on This Week yesterday and went to bat for her Fox New colleagues who had accused Hillary Clinton of faking a concussion to avoid testifying about Benghazi.

When host George Stephanopoulos asked her to explain the Fox News comments about Clinton's concussion, Van Susteren said:

I'm responsible for what I say, number one.  Those were all very dated, before she was hospitalized, and there was not much information coming out of the State Department.  And very early on, with those quotes.

Look, you know, not for one second did I doubt it.  Once that these people heard that she was seriously ill, that all changed.  The secretary of state will have to -- I think should answer questions about Benghazi.  There's a lot of mystery, and four people were murdered.  If there were four people murdered in Washington that were unsolved, we'd still be asking questions to this day.

But, look, she was very sick.  And when the State Department came out with more information, you saw all that stop.  So I have nothing beyond to say that. 

Well, I can understand why Van Susteren would not want to say much about her colleagues' comments. But she is wrong that "all that" stopped once the State Department came out with more information. For one thing, John Bolton pretended he had never doubted Clinton's concussion - an accusation originally made on Van Susteren's show and which aroused a rather snippy retort in Clinton's defense from Van Susteren.

Furthermore, if she really thinks "that all changed" once the news that Clinton had been hospitalized for a blood clot following the concussion, Van Susteren really needs to take a look at the smearing and jeering that Bill O'Reilly, Greg Gutfeld and Bernard McGuirk engaged in Friday night.

Greta puts herself in the same company as the other barbarians by insinuating that all these accusations could have been avoided if the State Dept had only given more info on Clinton’s health. It’s always somebody else to blame for the Fox people’s bad behavior. Personal responsibility is a trait none of them would recognize even if they tripped over it.

@aap: True. She may not be accountable for what her “colleagues” say but, at the same time, she doesn’t have to defend them, much less LIE for them.

Looks as though somebody got a memo from Roger Ailes . . .

Way to toe the company line Greta. She’s a puppet like the rest.

How many f-ing times has the Talking Toilet Brush Bolton spewed out his anti-Obama lies on the VanSuckup show? He gets invited because of these lies, not in spite of them.

If Van Susteren thinks "that all changed" once Hillary Clinton was hospitalized, she needs to take a better look at her own network.
