Andrea Mitchell Totally Misrepresented Pres. Obama's Speech

I agree with the other poster that this "respected journalist" should REPORT THE NEWS and not LIE.

The President addressed the UN in an impassioned speech covering a wealth of relevant topics (unlike Gov. Romney who got by on his basic tone of a televangelist). In any event, Obama mentioned Afghanistan and reiterated that we are on track for our removal of troops by 2014. I listened specifically for this date and I personally wanted it stated today as well as in the future. Anyway, Ms. Andrea Mitchell bemoaned as her "QUELLE HORREUR" remark that "Obama stated very little about Afghanistan and to talk about Romney not mentioning the troops..." I had to mute the tv. What a shill spewing, Romney propping puppet! She is disgracing her legacy!

She is a member of the Cap'n Save a Tool (Romney's campaign) Society!

All she did was criticize the President, for The View appearance, not meeting with Netanyahu, the speech.

Why does she have this job? They should give her job to Chelsea Clinton.

It is not what her title/role would suggest, but being the right wing plant in the media, she is doing what they want.

She IS one of the first substantial women journos that is still around. I will give her that. Morever, before she started her quest to become a Cybill Shepherd lookalike and snagged Mr. G (poor guy), she was on point, a rapid-fire, intelligent journalist!! Honest! Now, she is a shell of her former self. I suppose she is like a lot of women I have known, marry a big-wig and adopt HIS beliefs.

Yes, I am barfing.

hire isn't she? Just another shill or D.C. cocktail circuit arm candy twit. If one analyzes her career,she has been a lousy reporter. Pretty much in the same vain as Judy Miller or Candy Crowley,you can through in Chuckie Todd. These folks think they are above the frey,and they their the greatest since white sliced bread. They will say anything for a spot on the circuit. D.C. is all about who's on the A list,f-- you outsiders.
