Title: Christine O'Donnell walks out on Piers Morgan interview
Post by: merithyn on August 18, 2011, 04:36:11 AM
Interesting. Okay, no, not really. Nor is it surprising. Amusing, maybe.

Anyway, the clip of her walking out is embedded in the article linked below.

Christian Science Monitor article (http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics/The-Vote/2011/0818/Christine-O-Donnell-walks-off-Piers-Morgan-for-being-rude-VIDEO)

QuoteSelf-described trouble maker Christine O'Donnell appeared on the Piers Morgan Tonight show on Wednesday, trying to talk about her book, "Trouble Maker: Let's Do What It Takes to Make America Great Again."

O'Donnell, a tea party favorite, is best known in Delaware for defeating the heavily favored nine-term Congressman and former governor Michael Castle in the state's September 2010 Republican Senate primary. She lost in the general election to Democrat Chris Coons.

Outside of Delaware, she is perhaps most famous for her claim to have once "dabbled into witchcraft," and her subsequent ad in which she disclaimed possessing supernatural abilities.

Before coming on Morgan's show, she had already told Good Morning America that she regretted the "I'm not a witch" campaign ad. She said experts told her to do the ad, but that she has since learned to "trust your gut."

The trouble started when Morgan asked O'Donnell about a part of her book that discussed gay marriage. That's when O'Donnell accused him of "borderline being a little bit rude."

O'Donnell repeatedly urged Morgan to drop the topic of gay rights, but Morgan would not back down, asking another question about the Pentagon's repeal of its "don't ask, don't tell" policy.

Morgan at one point looked as though he was trying to hold back a smile, and insisted, "I think I'm being rather charming and respectful."

O'Donnell said the gay marriage issue is not relevant or what she is championing, saying the book is meant to inspire the tea party movement to "bring America back to the second American revolution."

O'Donnell began looking off camera while asserting that Morgan should only ask her what she told him she wanted to talk about. At that point O'Donnell claimed she was being pulled away, as a handler tried to block the camera.

Morgan, for his part, didn't look particularly invested or bothered when he asked, "Where are you going? You're leaving?"

As O'Donnell removed her microphone she asked Morgan if he'd read the book, to which he said, "Yes, but these issues are in your book. That's my point. You do talk about them."

Then O'Donnell ended the interview.

Was Morgan being rude, as O'Donnell claimed? Or was O'Donnell being weird, as Morgan claimed? Watch the video and see for yourself.

I'm sure her walkout was planned by her before the interview even started.  Otherwise, nobody would be talking about it today. :)

I'm sure you know that chicks like that often act a bit differently behind closed doors.

In her defense I'd have to leave an interview with Piers Morgan or else end up punching his goddamn head in on National Television.  Guy is annoying.

Then we've got our answer.  She probably doesn't let guys plug her mouth fast enough to keep them from getting sick of her. ;)

She's never been married?  An unmarried woman has no place whatsoever in politics.

Finnaly seen most of the interview.  Piers asked a legit question. She didnt gain any new supports by doing that.

Hell, I saw an Op-Ed written by Brent Bozell which said pretty much the same thing, and he's a guy who's made his living whining about how the media is unfair to conservatives.
