Elizabeth Smart easily outclasses MSNBC's Nancy Grace. (Correction: CNN's Nancy Grace.)

Nancy Grace (Who is my opinion is just Rita Crosby before she smokes a carton and a half of cigarettes) asks this young woman the dumbest questions I have ever heard.

You don't believe me? Well then read it for yourself.

GRACE: Elizabeth, I remember when you first went missing and literally hundreds of people were out looking for you. Now we know you were being held captive not very far away from your home at all. Did you ever hear people calling out your name, trying to find you?

ELIZABETH SMART: There was one time.

GRACE: At that moment, did you want to scream out, Here I am, help me?

ELIZABETH SMART: I mean, of course. Who wouldn`t?

GRACE: At that moment, when you knew people were looking for you, your parents were there. They were trying to find you. How did that make you feel?

ELIZABETH SMART: You know, I didn`t know how big it was. And it was — it was good to know people were looking for me, but I — I felt so far away, you know, I just — it didn`t really connect at that time. And you know, and I think that…

GRACE: And you were such a little girl, Elizabeth. I mean, you were just 14 years old.

ELIZABETH SMART: Yes.

GRACE: It`s hard to expect a little 14-year-old girl to react the way an adult might imagine they would react under those circumstances. You were afraid, I assume.

ELIZABETH SMART: Yes.

GRACE: Did your kidnappers tell you they would hurt you or your family if you tried to get away?

ELIZABETH SMART: You know, they did. And I really am here to support the bill and not to go into what — you know, what happened to me, what the whole — like, what is in my past because I`m not here to give an interview on that. I`m here to help push this bill through.

GRACE: And I want you to push the bill through and I want people to hear your voice.
When we take a look back, there`s a shot of Elizabeth Smart, and here she is, four years later.


And frankly, it`s a miracle that she was ever found. You know, a lot of people have seen shots of you wearing a burqa. How did you see out of that thing?

ELIZABETH SMART: You know, I`m really not going to talk about this at this time. I mean, that`s something I just don`t even look back at. And I really — I really — to be frankly honest, I really don`t appreciate you bringing all this up.

GRACE: I`m sorry, dear. I thought that you would speak out to other victims. But you know what? I completely understand. A lot of victims don`t want to talk about it and don`t feel like talking about it.

At one point Elizabeth looks off camera and rolls her eyes in disbelief.

I think it is time for Nancy Grace to take her "dog and pony" show and go home. She is a horrible interviewer and her attempts to appear sympathetic remind of George Bush trying to appear smart! Nobody buys it!

(By the way I need to give a nod to Crooks and Liars, which is where I "borrowed" almost this entire post. Yeah I am kind of lazy.)

    While you may probably have a distaste for MSNBC, Nancy Grace appears on CNN and CourtTV, not MSNBC.

  2. It is hard to follow the whirling dirvish path of the Traveling Twinkettes ( the Daryn Kagins, the Nancy Grace's, and the Rita Cosby's of the Media Black Hole).....
    The truth is that Little Dumb Question Nancy did indeed used to be over at MSNBC...and that was the Good Ol'Days when Rita was still over at Fox...

    More to the point of correcting the Path of the Inept, thank you commentor above...is that a young woman that survived great Horrors with an amazing amount of dignity, has to Endure the likes of such Dumb questions....and also as a woman I am offended that MsDumb kept hyping on Victim issues...she should have learned by now that her Lifetime mentality is not bring in the women viewers ( not men either)...oh, well, she is just waiting for another little blond girl to dissappear off an island....

  3. Welcome back Enigma,
    You have been missed.

    Did I really get the 24 news channel that she works for wrong? I am properly chastised. It is so hard to keep them all straight in my immoral little head.

    The point is that she is an idiot and a fake.

    And Elizabeth Smart is an intelligent young woman who should be allowed to get on with her life without some ratings hungry whore making her relive the most painful period of her young life.

    Did I mention that I don't like Nancy Grace?
