Lawrence O'Donnell is interviewing Mr. and Mrs. Khan.

[imanamerican63]

Overwhelming sad.

[uponit7771]

1. He continues his great appeal from the other night. She spoke gracefully ... these are PATRIOTS !!!

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

2. Calling out McConnell and Ryan to repudiate Trump.

[uponit7771]

3. +1

[HipChick]

4. +2

[uponit7771]

5. See, this is class... his wife is speaking NOW because she said she didn't have composure the other

... night and we being all human can say anything when we're upset.

STARK contrast

[3catwoman3]

6. This is one amazing couple.

They are the take-away from our convention.

[rjsquirrel]

7. Unbelievably great Americans

[Lefthacker]

8. Wow

I thought it would take a long time to get as emotional again as I did last night. Well it only took a day to feel like I did yesterday. Mr. and Mrs. Khan are great Americans and clearly do not enjoy the publicity. They are
Solely motivated by grief for their fallen son and love of country.

[Skittles]

9. very well-said, Lefthacker

welcome to DU

[Lefthacker]

10. Thanks

I am so grateful for this site. I found it during the Rep convention. I don't think I would've stayed sane without discovering DU.

[Skittles]

12. I hear you

I discovered it when that lying piece of shit Dubya was installed into the White House

[LakeArenal]

23. I found it when Walker took over Wisconsin

Just took me a long time to sign in.. I have learned a lot here.

[uponit7771]

13. +1, I believe his words when he said the spotlight isn't something they want right now... the mother

... is a tender soul and understands her son is a hero but would rather have her son.

Such tender hearts ...

[Tarheel_Dem]

19. +1 & Welcome.

[oswaldactedalone]

11. I nominate L O'D

for an emmy for this interview. Must see viewing. Their pain is palpable.

[Lefthacker]

14. Eloquent

Just when I don't think Mr. Khan could get any more eloquent he says one thing after another to demonstrate that he understands what makes America great more than me.

[uponit7771]

16. +1

[nolabear]

15. So help me O'Donnell was tearing up as they went to the last commercial.

Way better than I was doing. I was practically sobbing.

[MichiganVote]

17. I thought these parents demonstrated amazing courage in the face of incredible adversity

[shopgirl]

18. So inspiring

This couple has affected me more than I ever could have imagined. I cannot get them, and their beloved son, out of my mind. My boss, a republican, made a comment the other day about how surprised he was that our representative is a democrat and also a veteran. I almost lost it. I told him that my dad was a life long democrat and a world war 2 veteran. How dare these people claim that they are more patriotic. And, by the way, my dad loved Hillary Clinton. He died 10 years ago but he said he wished he could see her become president

[Tarheel_Dem]

20. For those of us at work, I hope someone will post the clip of the interview. Thanks in advance. nt

[imanamerican63]

21. Lawernce said it is on his facebook page.

[Tarheel_Dem]

22. Thank you. Was this on Lawrence's own show? I thought he was off on Fridays.

[imanamerican63]

24. It was special interview, he had a few other things, too.

[liberal from boston]

25. THE LAST WORD

Rachel's show is on now. Lawrence should be on again at 1 AM EST. It is worth watching.

[Tarheel_Dem]

27. Thanks guys. I'm home now, and getting ready to watch.

[piechartking]

32. Just watched from here in Taiwan 1:42 pm on Saturday.

My wife and I were both a mess after that one. We've got 5 kids and can't even imagine losing a one.

[Tarheel_Dem]

33. That tore me up. What a wonderful family. n/t

[still_one]

26. Yes it was, but I was pretty upset with O'Donnell for continuing to press the Khan's on their

feelings regarding the loss of their son by the same or similar questions asked different ways.

It started out fine, but he pushed it too far in my view, to the degree of being insensitive to their feelings

[left-of-center2012]

28. I agree

Great interview but he pushed a bit too far, especially in asking the parents what was the last conversation with their son.
IMHO

[still_one]

29. My thoughts exactly. He could have eased up a bit. You could tell they were going through

tremendous pain with this

[lunamagica]

30. I agree. I thought he went to far when he questioned them about their last conversation

with their son...too far.

That's none of our business, and it only intensified their pain even more

[Chimichurri]

31. He did justice honoring that beautiful family

I got teary eyed listening to them. Loved how heartfelt Lawrence handled the interview and am especially grateful he allowed them to finish speaking.

He deserves an Emmy for that interview
