Even slain U.S. aid worker Kayla Mueller is attacked by the right wing hate machine. Hasn't her family suffered enough?
Death Does Not Spare Kayla Mueller From Right Wing Hate
February 11, 2015

America mourned over the death of kidnapped aid worker Kayla Mueller after ISIS proclaimed that she was killed by Jordanian air attacks.

Kayla Mueller, the American woman taken hostage by the self-declared Islamic State, has died, her family and the White House said in separate statements.

As we reported Feb. 6, the Islamic State said Mueller, 26, died after Jordanian airstrikes against the militant group targeted the building in Syria where she was being held. Jordan is part of the U.S.-led coalition against the Islamic State. There has been no official confirmation about how Mueller died.

Her story was plastered on cable news all day long as her friends and family held a press conference to honor her in Arizona.

Fox News talkers were attacking President Obama vociferously for not speaking more vehemently against ISIS for their savagery after a Jordanian pilot was burned alive and then it reached a crescendo when the news broke about Kayla's death.

However, not all Americans were saddened for her death. If you're an American that falls short of the ideals conservatives believe in and you suffer at the hands of our enemies like Sgt. Bergdahl, then you get no respect or sympathy, but outright hatred.

Here's what the horrible wingnut Debbie Schlussel wrote about Kayla: Kayla Mueller: Dead ISIS Hostage Was Jew-Hating, Anti-Israel Bitch

No tears for the newly-departed Kayla Mueller, the ISIS hostage whose parents confirmed today that she is dead. Mueller was a Jew-hating, anti-Israel piece of crap who worked with HAMAS and helped Palestinians harass Israeli soldiers and block them from doing their job of keeping Islamic terrorists out of Israel. She also worked to prevent Israel from tearing down terrorists’ “houses,” which the Palestinian terrorists used to smuggle weapons from and to HAMAS in order to perpetrate terrorist attacks. And she wrote several lying, anti-Israel blog posts.

Here's what Breitbart editor Joe Pollack had to say on Twitter about her:

Comments like these found on Gateway Pundit abound across the Internet. UPDATED: ISM honors Kayla Mueller

While I feel sorry for this young woman's family I can't help but believe that if she had not fallen for the lies that Israel is the aggressor in the Middle East she might still be alive today. It is a shame that our state controlled media is so anti Jewish, but when they get their orders from the anti Semite, Obozo, it is no wonder some of the impressionable among us believe the BS. Long live The Tea Party!!

Well, now we know why Shep smith was heaping so much praise upon her today.
My gut told me not to feel sorry for this lady and now I am reminded why I trust it.

Dave Ferguson has a nice round up on this as does Brandon James.

Evan McCurry writes that it's not just Kayla Mueller that right wingers are smearing in death.

Can you help us out?
