Oh, Fox “News.” What would we do without your laughably ham-handed attempts to run interference for whichever Republican candidate is in need of your assistance on any given day?
On day five (!) of Donald Trump’s incomprehensible war with a Gold Star family that had the temerity to criticize him on stage at the Democratic National Convention, Fox “News” helpfully reminds us that BOTH SIDES DO IT, TOO!!! And also, BENGHAZI!!!!!!
As Donald Trump and the father of a fallen Muslim U.S. soldier continued trading barbs on Monday morning, Hillary Clinton’s spat with the mom of an American who died in the Benghazi terror attack continues to take a back seat.
Yes, folks, you probably weren’t aware that Hillary Clinton is engaged in a Gold Star family war her own bad self.
some are beginning to wonder why equal time isn’t being given to Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, who has challenged Pat Smith’s claims that Clinton told her the Benghazi attack started because of an anti-Muslim video.
You might remember that before he was appalled by families who have lost children in war expressing their grief in public, Donald Trump put grieving mother Patricia Smith on stage at the RNC to explicitly blame Hillary Clinton for her son’s death during the Benghazi attack.
You might also remember Clinton’s scathing, scorched-earth response to Mrs. Smith:
[...]
Oh, right. There wasn’t one. Hillary Clinton is a sane, rational adult who does not feel the need to lash out at everyone who criticizes her.
But she did say the following while being interviewed Sunday on Fox “News:”
Smith, the mother of Foreign Service officer Sean Smith, made a passionate speech at the Republican National Convention two weeks ago, mournfully remembering her dead son and laying the blame for his murder at Clinton’s feet. Pat Smith has repeatedly said Clinton blamed the anti-Muslim video for inspiring the Benghazi attacks, a charge Clinton has denied.
“Since then, I have repeatedly asked Hillary Clinton to explain to me the real reason why my son is dead,” Smith said during her RNC speech. “I’m still waiting.”
But Clinton said during a Sunday interview on “Fox News Sunday” that Smith must not have correctly remembered their conversation during the 2012 ceremony.
“As other members of families who lost loved ones have said, that’s not what they heard,” Clinton said. “I don’t hold any ill feeling for someone who in that moment may not fully recall everything that was or wasn’t said.”
Why, liberal media??? WHY do you continue to make Hillary’s war with Patricia Smith take a “back seat” to Trump’s reasonable, totally-not-completely-insane exchange of ideas with the Khan family? Can’t you see what a monster she is?
Thank goodness we have Fox “News” to tell us the whole, fair and balanced truth.
