Stef Cutter Flees Interview;
Makes Mistake of Not Fleeing Bret Baier

Video Now Up: At the Right Scoop.

Bret Baier just interviewed her. She doubled down on claiming that Benghazi is only a political issue, claiming Romney was the first person to "politicize" it with his post-Cairo Embassy apologism statement.

She blabbled when Baier pointed out that the White House, too, had disowned those remarks-- night of the protests in Cairo.

Plus, Baier didn't note this, but Cairo is not in Libya.

She continued to claim this was all political, saying "We have two people out on the campaign trail accusing us of covering something up."

When Bret Baier played the tape of Obama on Letterman again claiming it was a spontaneous YouTube protest, she claimed this was the information she had.

When Baier noted that the State Department issued a statement that it had never, not even in the earliest hours, been their belief that the attack had anything to do with the YouTube video, she claimed she got that information from "intelligence" (the CIA).

Having not done very well at all, she ended the interview vowing, "Next time I'll bring my notes."

Meanwhile, Katie Pavlich asked her if she had any intention of resigning. Cutter said she did not, and fled the interview.

Drudge, meanwhile, refuses to elevate this to a major headline story, because, you know, he's better than bloggers, and needs to differentiate himself.
