Andrea Mitchell Reports... amazing hit on Hillary...

[Mike Nelson]

...just now. Benghazi victim's mom crying "Why?" to clip of cold, disconnected Hillary. Victim returns, saying Hillary won't answer. Let her son die. They cried, "Help!" and Hillary let them all die... said "Stand down" three times...

Edit add: I'm just reporting... I think the segment was disgusting and believe Hillary did not let this woman's son die.

1. Mrs. Greenspan, ever the devoted righty. nt

2. Andria is vile to such a thing--and yes to the mom also. These continued investigations

never let the warriors families heal. I am going to write to msnbc. Most likely will do not good but I will anyway.

3. I watched it...

...and while the grief over her son's death is no doubt genuine, what I saw was pure theater. My opinion.

4. Seems like this would have been expected from this lady. People are usually briefed

as to what the subject matter will be and the questions that will result. I have no reason to believe this lady was not sincere. But I do 'wonder' if she was not convinced and used by someone to create a dilemma for Hillary. Who instigated the interview? Did MSNBC reach out to her or did she or a person representing her reach out to them? She is in obvious pain but it seems to me she has been convinced that Hillary is the only person responsible. I would not put it past the GOP to use her pain. If the Benghazi committee were looking for real answers they would not be just attacking Hillary but conducting a real investigation. I think that mind set has convinced this lady that Hillary personally as pulled the trigger that killed her son.

8. The mother has been on a media tour of sorts.

As well, the uncle of Heather Smith, Sean's widow. I don't know about the uncle but I get the impression that Patricia Smith might be estranged from her daughter-in-law and grandchildren. She alludes to how she isn't allowed to see them in another article.

Grief does terrible things to people, one of them being an inability to accept the loss, especially if the death was unexpected.

9. Wow. Had know idea.

5. Nobody watches Andrea. She is a terrible reporter who has trouble spitting her words out.

6. They Should have put "Paid for by the Committee to defeat Hillary" at the bottom of the screen

What a disgusting thing to do.

7. I think Mrs. Greenspan is...

...helping the Republicans with clips for their future ad campaign. Of course, she knew where the interview was going...

[gratuitous]

10. Again with the "stand down" order that was never issued?

Didn't the committee just cover this last week? It seems that Republicans think as long as they keep asking the same questions that have been answered time and again, it makes it appear as if the question still lingers.

The larger mystery, of course, is why the popular media can't figure out that the questions being raised have already been answered. Don't they have the internets?

11. Yes, the same woman was on with Andrea on last Wednesday, or so. I did not see AMR today, was it a

post-hearing follow-up to that?

I'm sorry for her loss, but she's weird. And she may as well be Sean Spicer's mom, as hard-right as she obviously is.
