Video: Meet The Press part 1, U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice Calmly Boxes Gregory into Submission

From Denny: This was a Meet The Press that was worth the view all the way through the show. I usually find David Gregory weak as rainwater and a poor proponent of idiot and arrogant ambush journalism of which I have no use. What I'm looking for are real facts and an intelligent discussion - not the cat and mouse process of trying to force an interview to go the way you desire just to make someone look bad to boost your entertainment ratings. Not to worry. America's Ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, outboxed and outclassed him every step of the way in the most finesseful manner. She sure got my vote! :)





Usually, I don't stick around for the Roundtable discussions as it is Republican heavy and full of Washington insider blowhards that the rest of America and the world could care less about their priviledged opinions. This was the first time some of these guys made plausible, sane, even common sense and compelling arguments that didn't sound like they just got out of the mental hospital (with friends and relatives waiting in the wings ready to pounce and capture, stuffing them into a straight jacket for a return trip).
