Andrea Mitchell Fails Literature

Andrea Mitchell made a complete fool of herself when attempted to bash Sen. Ted Cruz. In her stunningly stupid tweet, Mitchell showed her lack of basic knowledge of HIGH SCHOOL literature.

I clearly studied too much American literature and not enough Macbeth. My apologies to Sen. Cruz.

I was able to identify that passage from Macbeth when I was a HIGH SCHOOL freshman.

Of course, Cruz fact checked the poorly educated Mitchell and her Cabal colleagues.

Methinks she doth protest too much.

One would think NBC would know the Bard. Andrea, take a look at Macbeth act 5, scene 5:

“[Life] struts & frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound & fury,
Signifying nothing.” pic.twitter.com/3GbvoLSJTh

Between NBC & the Washington Post, you’d think somebody would have read Macbeth. pic.twitter.com/RvTgHyTVIg

Sean Davis offers a good analysis of Mitchell and Rubin's intellectual failings.

And for all the dunking on Mitchell here, the real superstar of that thread is Jennifer Rubin, far and away the dumbest pundit in all of American politics, rolling in for the high five and immediately stepping on a rake. https://t.co/m5SUzQuCLk

Here is some icing on the cake:

In 1967, Mitchell received a Bachelor of Arts degree in English literature from the University of Pennsylvania. Her degree was in English lit and she can't identify some of the most well-known lines ever written.

That is embarrassing.
