Semantics spin denied! Greta Van Susteren has a key question for WH on Hagel ouster

BREAKING NEWS: Sec of Def Chuck Hagel stepping down

— Greta Van Susteren (@greta) November 24, 2014

As Twitchy reported, Chuck Hagel is apparently out as Secretary of Defense. President Petulant is set to make an announcement later this morning (and the predictions will crack you up). Fired, resigned, or thrown under the bus? Here’s the White House spin:

"He insisted that Mr. Hagel was not fired, saying that he initiated discussions about his future two weeks ago" http://t.co/tbiW39DNrK

Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren isn’t letting the spin slide.

Obama admin is being silly..saying #Hagel not fired but asked to step down; tell, what is the difference????

Bingo. Semantics spin? DENIED!

@greta Not silly, Greta — manipulative.
Not a fan of #Hagel, BO didn't allow face to heal before inflicting tire marks

What say you, White House? While we wait, here’s an excellent exit point.

@greta At least it isn't paid administrative leave.
