Matthews Rips Benghazi Victim’s Mother: 'I Don’t Care What That Woman Up There … Has Felt'
Washington Free Beacon ^ | July 18, 2016 | David Rutz

Posted on 07/24/2016 8:27:51 AM PDT by Cheerio

MSNBC host Chris Matthews slammed the Republican National Convention speech Monday by the mother of one of the four killed in Benghazi, saying he didn’t "care what that woman up there, the mother, has felt."

While he praised the RNC address by "Lone Survivor" Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell, he sharply criticized the remarks by Patricia Smith calling Hillary Clinton a liar who deserved to be in prison. Her son Sean Smith perished in the 2012 terrorist attack, and Clinton’s handling of the ordeal and subsequent deceit about its causes as secretary of state have plagued her ever since.

"This gross accusation that somehow Hillary Clinton had anything to do with the death of Chris Stevens … She had nothing to do with it," Matthews said. "Worst-case scenario, she didn’t gave a straight story afterwards."

Tingly legged Matthews is a maggot extraordinaire who deserves to be horse whipped into the dust.

I bet he gets all tingly when Michael Brown’s mom speaks at next week convention, though.

I wonder why the 30 or so consulate employees who were rescued that day are still under a gag order.

Perhaps one of them has something to say that Christine might care to hear.

He is not an honorable person.
Which is the worst thing anyone can be.

"FOOL IN THE HOLE!"

When an explosive detonation in a confined space is imminent, the warning "FIRE IN THE HOLE!" is given.

But, in this case, it's not dynamite.

It's just Chris Matthews in a hole getting busy with his shovel.

It's weird. I'm looking at him, but instead I see a mental picture of that Far Side cartoon showing God's Keyboard with His Finger poised above the "Smite" key.

Pssst...hey, Chris? Stop digging!!!

Mr. Matthews uses the power of feelings of the victim only when it suits his narrative and chastises any position that shows progressive policies negatively. He is such a boring incompetent that calling him hypocrite is barely worth the time to write this. Senator Moynihan would in rolling in his grave at the way Matthews treats people and other perspectives.

But wait till Michael Brown’s mother speaks. Trayvon’s momma will probably show up too, and Chrissie will be weeping into his herbal tea for their pain.

This utterly unprofessional “Tingle” Matthews, who lets his own personal prejudices drive his so-called journalism, deserves to be slapped HARD in the face all the way across the room. To deny the mother of someone who died for their country the right to express her feelings on the cause of her son’s death by the treasonous self-serving Hillary, but then to strain his ear to listen to the guaranteed twaddle to be put forth by the self-serving mother of a CRIMINAL (remember, she was hawking t-shirts with her son’s picture on it?) is nothing short of an incredible self-indictment to his credibility. Why any so-called professional media outlet would continue to give this charlatan a forum to disseminate more of his lies and biased flawed information is really a $64,000 question.

Yep, contrast this mother, with how the liberals used Cindy Sheehan and her grief over her son’s death.

And we will see the Democrats trot out Trayvon’s momma and Michael Brown’s momma at their convention.

I can’t wait to see what Chris Mathews and liberal talking heads say about these other mothers the Democrats trot out.

Is Chris going to be so mean spirited and heartless, in his reaction to the story told by Trayvon’s and Michael Brown’s mothers????? Any ideas what Chris and liberals will say???

Chris has set criteria that a political convention is no place for a grieving mother, and her blame of officials or official policy for the deaths of their sons. OK, then, if we are going to apply the standard set by Chris Mathews, then these other mothers have no place at the Democrat convention.

Right??? What am I missing???

Or is this simply another case in which the liberals have set up different criteria, for who should be speaking, depending on whether their speech push a liberal agenda???
