andrea mitchell just had the mother of one of the four killed in benghazi on her m$nbc show.

amazingly, this woman knows more about what happened that day/night than Hillary Clinton herself.

she claims that Hillary gave three 'stand down' orders as the attack continued.

does she think that the rabid benghazi committee just missed this one?

the committee would have crucified Hillary live on the House floor if this were true.


i understand this woman's grief, but to put her on national teevee and allow her crazed, emotional rant is our media at it's best.

1. Mrs. Greenspan really hates her some Hillary Clinton, not sure why exactly but she totally does...

2. Some myths won't die. Sad to see families and their grief used for political gain, someone

pumped this woman's head full of nonsense and she can't let it go. Leon Panetta and Gen. Ham would have been the ones who didn't send military aid, anyway--not that there's any proof they delayed or ordered a stand-down.

5. Probably some money involved also.

3. I understand

I understand her grief.

She has as much right to exposure as did the mass shootings victim's parents did, yes? Or, did it matter who or what was being promoted or attacked?

6. did the mass shooting victims parents blame the police for their deaths or the mayor or the gov.?

[ryan_cats]

7. So

So it does matter.

8. truth matters.

11. I can understand the desire to pretend that both consequence and inaccuracy hold equal weight...

"did it matter who or what was being promoted or attacked?"

I can certainly understand the desire to pretend that both consequence and inaccuracy hold equal weight if doing so validates a bias.

4. From the most recent hearing...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says emphatically that she never told Defense Secretary Leon Panetta to order the military to "stand down" during the deadly 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya that killed four Americans.

Addressing one of the persistent claims by her critics, Clinton said "of course" she did not issue a stand-down order and said U.S. officials did everything they could to protect the U.S. compound. The military began moving Marines and special forces toward Libya, but the surviving American personnel were evacuated before they could arrive.

"Logistics and distance made it unlikely they could be anywhere near Benghazi in any reasonable time," Clinton said.

Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland noted that the stand-down claim has been repeatedly debunked, including in a report last year by the Republican-controlled House Armed Services Committee.

Clinton thanked Cummings for bringing up the "very comprehensive report that House Armed Services did on this."

9. She obviously drank the Kool-Aid.

Faux Snooze (the propaganda ministry of the GOP) had
buckets of it and dispensed it in generous servings.
