Andrea Mitchell had the chance to ask John Kerry, on live national TV, any question she wanted about the Iran deal. She could, for example, have confronted him over the lifting of the conventional arms and ballistic missile embargoes that were included as a nice little parting gift to Iran.
Instead, on today's Morning Joe, Mitchell lobbed up the mushiest of softballs, asking Kerry "what that moment meant to you" when at the final negotiation meeting, he reminisced about going to Vietnam as a 22-year old "and that you never wanted to go to war without having exhausted the diplomacy." A shame Andrea and John weren't in the same room so they could have exchanged a heartfelt hug.

What a laugh!
Andrea Mitchell, about 150 years old, is questioning John Kerry, who himself looks like he just came out of the grave.
Don’t these people want to enjoy what’s left of their time in Earth? Do they think they’ll live and/or be healthy all their life?
Andrea Mitchell could have asked Kerry anything about the Iran deal. She chose to lob a mushy softball.
Ping to MSM Criticism list.
Note to recipients: as of today, I’m changing the ping list name from “Today show” to Media Criticism, to reflect the list’s real focus. Loyal readers know that this list started out over 10 years ago to share vanity posts about Today during the Couric/Gumbel era, but our focus has become much broader.
Thanks for your continued readership!
Wow, she looks sick in that photo. Andrea doesn’t look so good either.
Did Kerry get a face transplant? He looks like he’s melting. He looks like a smashed pumpkin. Oh wait... That’s Andrea? The both look ghastly.
Kerry will be VERY quiet when Iran tests their first bomb in 2017.
I think Kerry believes his original face was the reason he was deprived of his rightful role as Amerika’s leader (Google “project longface”).
So, he upgraded to Kerry 2.0 in anticipation of another run for the Rainbow House.
Didn’t Monica coin a phrase about something like this? I think it was “phone sex?” From the photo shots, that’s what it looks like is going on here.
re: Kerry
I read elsewhere that he said that our prisoners in Iram were brought up in every meeting, but he didn’t tell us what was said by either side.
My conclusion: we made a wish, they declined it, and that was that.
