McLaughlin Group‘s Eleanor Clift : ‘Ambassador Stevens Wasn’t Murdered’
Mediaite ^ | May 11, 2014 | Evan McMurry

Posted on 05/11/2014 10:24:48 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Daily Beast columnist Eleanor Clift said on Sunday’s The McLaughlin Group that late U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens, who was killed the night of the Benghazi attacks, had not been murdered but had died from “smoke inhalation.”

“I’d like to point out that Ambassador Stevens was not ‘murdered,’” Clift said, using air quotes, “but died of smoke inhalation in a CIA safe room.”

This did not land well. “It was a terrorist attack, Eleanor,” panelist-for-life Pat Buchanan said. “He was murdered in a terrorist attack.”

Clift responded that it was an opportunistic terrorist attack inflamed by the anti-Muslim video, the blaming of which has caused so much trouble. “It was still a CIA [outpost],” Clift said. “If you’re going to put somebody on trial, put David Petraeus on trial, not Hillary Clinton.”

Host John McLaughlin finally stopped the discussion, saying “We’re going to be returning to this subject, I’m sure, repeatedly over the next six months.” Promise?

She’s senile - and has always been an imbecile, anyway.

This hack, Clift, was the idiot that launched the “Mission Accomplished” crusade against Bush. She’s a partisan skank.

Kennedy died of bleeding.

And no one is ever executed by lethal injection. They all die of body chemistry imbalances.

Eleanor Clift just gave a new embodiment to that old notion of a truly stoopid c*nt!

I think Eleanor doth protest too much. She's doing this as a peremptory salvation for Hillary, which indicates Hillary believes there's a difference to be made to her advantage if Ambassador Stevens will not have been deemed to have been murdered by Hillary's complicity in the origins and in-progress decisions made and enacted surrounding 9/11/12, as disclosures unfold in the select committee.

Given her past associations, Hillary realizes there's Hell To Pay! regarding her earlier 9/11-related decisions, too. (H/t: Barb O)

There are a ton of arsonists calling their lawyers right now to demand the Eleanor Clift defense.

When he resigned from Sec Navy and asked to join Army they said he could be a Colonel. He said no but would like to learn from someone as a Lieutenant Colonel. So he served under Leonard Wood.

There isn’t any shaming Clift. There isn’t any condemning and ostracizing her like a Don Sterling for her rabid lap-dog allegiance to evil in its purist form.

Within that haggard wrinkled form beats a heart polluted by bile and a withered soul and we will just have to wait until the evil consumes her entirely.

We will be seeing a steady parade of old Clintonoids slithering out of old rotten logs as H*****y’s ascendency to the throne draws closer. Eleanor Cleft isn’t the first, and she surely won’t be the last.

So, his death was an accident. This is too loony for words? How can Liberals do delude themselves? I bet she thinks Obama care is a great thing and all who speak against Obama are racists.

Everyone jokes about the Monica signature knee pads.
Truth is Monica was using Eleanor Clift signature pads.

Following this logic, obamacare was never passed, it just got enough votes to pass.

I visited TR’s home on Long Island once. Near one of the back doors there was a small gun case. In it was a .30 caliber rifle with a coke can sized suppressor on it. He had it there so his young boys could shoot river rats early in the morning without bothering the neighbors. True story

She has a point. The 9/11 victims weren’t murdered either. Most of them died in an explosion and resulting building fire, and others suffered a bad fall.

Eleanor Clift is 74 years old.

The late actor, Montgomery Clift was her ex-brother-in-law.

He was nuttier than a fruit cake, too. In fact, he was an open fruit-cake.

Montgomery Clift was one of the greatest film actors of the 20th Century. Why get him mixed up with this evil harpy? He’s been dead for nearly 50 years.
