Is it the role of a "correspondent," as opposed to a pundit, to advocate on a controversial subject? Apparently Andrea Mitchell thinks it's just fine.

On today's Morning Joe, Mitchell, NBC's chief foreign affairs correspondent, twice spoke in defense of Planned Parenthood. She claimed to distinguish PP's role in providing abortions from the screening services it offers women, and criticized the decision of the Texas state government to prohibit Planned Parenthood from receiving federal screening funds. But funds being fungible, Mitchell was effectively advocating for all of Planned Parenthood, including its role as the nation's largest abortion provider.

Mitchell = wasted use of oxygen

[Eric in the Ozarks]

She fits the NBC profile;
Partisan.
Liar.
Fan of Barry Sotero.

Note that in the course of her comments, Mitchell actually said that Planned Parenthood "really is" a noble organization.

Mrs. Greenspan is a particularly nasty old commie. I have to turn the channel when she appears.

You know how they say, when two people live together they begin to look alike?

[Loyal Buckeye]

Rush is right. The Dems are targeting the ‘stupid vote’.

[matginzac]

Exactly...

Does Andrea look bitter in that photo, or what? She knows that she could never look as great as Sarah does on that magazine cover.

[17th Miss Regt]

Andrea advocates for genetic improvement, racial purification and the need to develop a “race of thoroughbreds”.

Planned Parenthood folks extorted money from the Susan Komen Foundation. Why should we respect them?

[popdonnelly]

It wasn’t a “noble organization” when it extorted money from the Susan Komen Foundation.

Picture of a crank stalker.

[faucetman]

Is this photo misplaced from the trans gender story?

[brownsfan]

Beauty and the beast?

‘...human weeds,’ ‘reckless breeders,’ ‘spawning... human beings who never should have been born.’
