MSNBC Smears Pat Smith’s Speech About Benghazi; Her ‘Gross Accusation’ ‘Ruined’ the Night

From the moment that Pat Smith concluded her Monday night speech at the Republican National Convention (RNC) about how her son was murdered in the 2012 Benghazi terror attack, MSNBC had their marching orders to annihilate, demean, and smear Smith for her attacks on Hillary Clinton that left the assembled cast of liberals confused at the “gross accusation” that’s “ruined” the entire night.

Co-host Rachel Maddow seemed confused at the idea of Smith’s outrage at Clinton’s failed leadership so Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson chimed in that it was “an extraordinary thing” and seemed confused at Smith linking Clinton to what happened to her son.

“I mean, because the sort of basis for that seems to be what Hillary Clinton did or did not tell her after the fact but I didn't quite make the connection as to why she holds her personally responsible for the death,” he declared.

Maddow added by accosting Smith for “playing with a very specific kind of fire that almost is impossible for me to watch, I have to say” in suggesting that someone should go to prison for her son’s death.

On September 11, 2012, Hillary Clinton ruined Sean Smith’s night.

Didn’t Bill’s wife say she lost more sleep over Benghazi than anyone else? If so, how was this verified?

Zackly, Rachel. How could any reasonable person connect how it’s Clinton’s fault when it is so blatantly obvious it’s George W. Bush’s?

How dare Mad Cow demean an American for her
Islamic terrorist backers?

I could not imagine NBC going so low.

They protest because it is effective AND...

They roll the SAME way.

How many times has Rachel Madcow, Eugene Robinson and Chrissy Matthews done exactly that which they now accuse Mrs. Smith of?

If they really want to see a Smearer, all they need to do is look in a mirror or watch the tapes of their own broadcasts, if they can stomach them, of course.

I certainly remember—just in the last few weeks—how they’ve basically told their audiences that the St Paul and Baton Rouge police were MURDERERS, thus stirring up racial hatred and mass shooting of police without any evidence except their own Left-wing, anti law and order biases.

What about poor George Zimmerman? Remember their bias photos of chubby cheeked 12 year old Trayvon Martin. How these same MSNBC douchebags cheered when Obama said if he had a son he’d look just like Trayvon?

They accused George Bush of lying about Saddam’s Weapons of Mass Destruction (he had them shipped out—even Powell proved it before the UN Security Council) and this same rabid network gave voice to people accusing Bush of masterminding 9/11 and deliberately killing over 3,000 innocent Americans?

Despicable! SPIT. FLUSH.

Another little tidbit for Chrissie and Rachel (who’s more manly than Chrissy) to chew on. Who’s baby was Libya in the first place? Ghadaffi was doing nothing to America, he had given up his terrorist activities after seeing Sadaam pulled out of a hole. He was no threat to us, but we helped topple him anyways. Who’s idea was that? If we don’t topple him, there is no Benghazzi....

Chris Wallace admitted he actually in the very room
with Huma and Hillary and they “did not sleep that night”.

Badge of Honor! If the sycophants at MSNBC did not like it then it was spot-on accurate! Thank you Pat Smith.

Of course it ruined their night. Pat Smith told the nation what the msm has been keeping hidden for four years. I’m sure it ruined Hillary’s night too.
Their lack of sympathy for a woman who lost her son is very telling.

Hit a nerve huh?

What ever is effective, the MSM will bitch about the loudest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We’ve got a saying down South.

“The hit dog always hollers.”

Pack of feral dogs in your neighborhood, up to no good, Throw a big, pointy rock as hard as you can into the middle of them. One of them runs off yelping in pain while the others follow. Which one did you hit with the rock? The one that “hollers”.

Pat Smith hit a dog with a big rock last night.

> The media is in meltdown mode. I love it.

And at least half of the U.S. or more (I think it's much higher) have figured ou the MSM are liars and a good percentage have figured out they are the part of the propaganda directorate of the Muslim operated WH. Sooner or later this will have to affect their bottom line and their profitability and even their CEO's paycheck. And I hope it happens under Trump's watch and he says "hell no" you can't have a bailout and let's them tank. He will have the full support of all the good, hardworking people in the U.S. of A.

Any time a speaker’s comments hit home it ruined the night for the Democrats.

Well, NBC, she's just the one who's been the most vociferous about what Kankles said. Her story can, and I'm sure it has been, corroborated!
