| Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was asked about ascertaining whether the Benghazi terror attack was the result of a protest by Senator Ron Johnson. "What difference, at this point, does it make?" Clinton shouted, seemingly losing her cool. "With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night decided to go kill some Americans? What difference, at this point, does it make?"
|
Comments: What a shocking display of indifference. The Democrats treat her like a delicate flower and all they want to discuss is the alleged lack of funding for security in Benghazi. It is sickening to watch.

Shouted like a true alcoholic - giving credence to her falls and blackouts. Rand Paul is holding her to account. Is Obama arming AQ in Africa just like they armed the Mexican cartels in Mexico?

Rand Paul just shocked me and smacked PIAPS good. The only problem is, Herself can claim that lie of "transparency," while saying she accepts responsibility, yet won´t quit in disgrace. can´t have that in her 2016 resume.
Why am I torturing myself listening to this cheap political drama?

The PIAPS is trying to prove her manhood.
The DIFFERENCE it makes is that you lied - as often as you could so as to protect yourself and the poseur that hired you. A terrorist attack during a presidential campaign is not ideal, so the video lie was projected far and wide. You refused the ambassador the security he asked for, and your boss refused help three times once the attack was underway.

It sounds to me like this woman has gone off the deep end. What difference does it make? Every bit it we can learn something that will help keep other Americans safe. It makes a great deal of difference if this administration is going to hunt down and prosecute the killers. It makes a difference if this was a set-up, or a botched running deal, like some have posited. It makes every bit of difference to the family members that have lost loved ones. It makes a difference if you could have foreseen a problem, didn´t act, then continued along as if nothing happened (rather than resigning in disgrace). Hillary Clinton is a laughingstock that rode the coattails of her husband to the Peter Principle pedestal.

The difference it makes is the key, Hillary. Did you lie, along with Susan and Obama and all the rest, to cover up things having gone wrong? Were you hiding behind a pre-arranged cover story, like it appears? Were you aware - contrary to what you claim, but should have known - that there was a credible threat to the embassy there? Why scream about if it matters - this was your offered explanation. Yeah, it matters. It establishes whether or not you´re a liar.

4 murdered Americans and she has the nerve to ask what difference it makes? One could ask that here in Chicago, when children are gunned down in the streets by gang bangers, what difference does it make, they are dead, nothing is gonna change that, just let it go? And as it being personal, "you betcha" she along with obama are both personally responsible for what happened in Benghazi.

What difference does it make who killed the American ambassador and his staff? What difference does it make why they were killed?
Unbelievable. This confirms what many of us have long suspected, that Hillary is not the brightest bulb in the room.
According to our secretary of state it doesn´t matter who killed the Americans or why. They might as well have been victims of an armed robbery. The only thing that matters is that they are dead and Hillary is moved to tears about it.

It makes all the difference in the World, because the Obama policies in the Middle East have promoted the agenda of the terrorists, including AlQueda, made martyrs out of hoodlums, filled the area with weapons of all types, created massive unrest in that part of the World, caused the deaths of thousands of people, many innocent of anything, supported the overthrow of Governments in other Countries to the detriment of the U.S., ( Is that treason ? ), given all the Islamic radicals more cause to hate Americans and other similar nations, and essentially given ALL of the disparate groups a common cause to band together AGAINST us. and we still send millions, if not billions, of dollars to Countries that for decades were our allies and have turned into our enemies. Obama has unleashed He@@ on Earth and calls it an Arab Spring, as if it is a grand renewal of these people´s love and respect for the U>S>. He is a terribly ignorant man responsible for misery, death, destruction, and hatred for millions of people.(All my opinion ),

The difference it makes, Madam Secretary,is whether you are credible or not. You stood, along with the President, over the coffins of the dead and discussed a movie as the cause, not an organized terrorist attack. We must know why you did that - that is the difference it makes.

This is why the libtards wanted to get out front on this by having the senate - controlled by libtards - do the dog and pony show. The house should be grilling her, without all the flowery excess verbiage - just get to the heart of the documented lies and require answers for where are the survivors, what caliber ammo was used, who gave the stand-down orders, where did the weapons come from for the terrorists, and why is that video guy in jail, etc...

What difference does anything make to these people ? For one thing, our country´s sons and daughters are being sent out under the command of the United States government and they DESERVE to be protected as much as possible. Did the ambassador get support he deserved or was his cry for help swept under the rug for political expediency ?
She´s there to answer questions and see where they might lead. It does not matter if SHE thinks they are relevent or not.

What difference does it make?
The difference between a chance at the presidency and losing her power.
As long as she can dance around the responsibility and go on the offensive (that means shout the questioner down, when you don´t like the question), she can run for President and list all her amazing accomplishments, like closing the barn door after the diplomats are dead, things like that. Now we will be reading ad nauseum how much she personally is doing to beef up security in all our embassies, so the tragedy that she had nothing to do with causing, never happens again.
And by the way, it was the Republican´s fault.

Mrs Clinton can yell all she wants. The U.S. State Dept was derelict in its duty to respond to numerous pleas for help from our officials in Lybia and people died because of the inaction. PURPOSEFUL inaction over months. The Democrats NEVER want to tell the truth or take responsibility for their action or lack thereof. Blame it all on anything else than other than THEMSELVES. What is almost as bad is the awful possibility that this was caused by the Administration "plot" to give/sell arms to terrorists in that region. WHERE ARE THE SURVIVORS of this incident and why are they being completely held incognito. It seems incomprehensible that none will talk publicly, so what is going on?

Officially and repeatedly blaming it on a video most muslims had never heard of made a heck of alot of difference to the dozens of people killed and injured in the ensuing riots in other muslim countries, a life or death difference in fact. The blood of these are on the hands of Zippy and Butch of Benghazi as well and I wish just one of our Republican congress critters would point this out during the hearings.

The ´difference´ could be manslaughter or incompetence. Now rather than talk about various directions in the future, let´s focus on exactly what you knew when this disaster happened.´

It comes after State Department whistleblower Gregory Hicks testified Wednesday that he was shocked when he saw Susan Rice blaming a protest for the attack on numerous talk shows. Martha MacCallum discussed the next steps in the investigation of what happened in Benghazi with Hicks´ attorney, Victoria Toensing.

Harkening back to a Mitt Romney press conference on September 12, 2012, which addressed the Benghazi attacks only in passing while focusing instead on the assault on the American embassy in Cairo, Egypt, Carney suggested that Romney had tried to target the innocent Obama administration for telling the truth about Benghazi. “Republicans, again, in this ongoing effort that began in the hours after the attack when Mitt Romney put out a press release to try to take political

As part of a Mothers’ Day weekend defense of his signature legislative accomplishment, President Obama claimed that the law represented the “largest health care tax cut for working families and small businesses in our history. “ His argument was a hail-mary effort to redesignate subsidies for individuals to purchase health insurance on government-run exchanges as a “tax cut.” But according to the Congressional Budget Office, these subsidies actually qualify as more than $1 trillion in “Exchange Subsidies and Related Spending.” (Emphasis mine.) Far from being a historic tax cut, Obamacare actually qualifies as one of the largest

Inhofe, the top Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, said in an interview Thursday with “The Rusty Humphries Show” that impeachment would become an issue soon over the “greatest cover-up in American history.” “People may be starting to use the I-word before too long,” Inhofe said. “The I-word meaning impeachment?” Humphries asked. “Yeah,” Inhofe responded. “Of all the great cover-ups in history — the Pentagon papers, Iran-Contra,

They know, of course, that their remarks will be widely covered by the press, studied by analysts, and influential in contemporary political debates. For that reason, presidents rarely speak off-the-cuff, and their every word is carefully chosen for exactly the message the White House wants to convey to the public. Their graduation speeches, like all presidential addresses, go through many drafts and are reviewed by high-level administration officials

Northwestern University continued to stumble over diversity issues this week as Mexican students voiced disagreement with a campuswide letter that advised students not to celebrate Cinco de Mayo by engaging in racially-offensive activities, such as eating tacos and drinking tequila. The letter was sent to students via e-mail, and published in The Daily Northwestern last week. Leaders of Alianza, a Latino student group, and the Associated Student Government called on students to remember that Cinco de Mayo commemorates Mexico’s victory over France in the Battle of Puebla. It is not a day to throw a sombrero-themed party, they said.

When it became clear last fall that the CIA’s now discredited Benghazi talking points were flawed, the White House said repeatedly the document were put together almost entirely by the intelligence community, but White House documents reviewed by Congress suggest a different story. ABC News has obtained 12 different versions of the talking points that show they were extensive edited as they evolved from the drafts first written entirely by the CIA to the final version distributed to Congress and to U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice before she appeared on five talk shows the Sunday after that attack.

She weathered Whitewater. She made it past Monica ?Lewinsky. Now Hillary Clinton is hoping to beat the rap on Benghazi and make it to the White House. The Clinton political machine is in full campaign mode already, preparing for 2016 and hoping voters forget by then that she had a key role in the Obama administration’s handling of the terror attack. But that’s becoming more difficult as the GOP appears to be laying the groundwork for tying Clinton to Benghazi and making sure it stays front and center in the next campaign.Some of the testimony from State Department whistleblowers

"Every year for the past few years, on Mother´s Day, I´ve gone--I´ve taken a delegation--into Afghanistan or Iraq, we´re alternating now, now Afghanistan--for Mother´s Day to say thank you to our moms and, by the way, our grandmothers, who are serving there. Some young grandmothers. But, nonetheless, grandmothers. To also thank all of our troops for what they do to protect America´s families. I won´t be going this particular weekend because we don´t have--you know, under sequestration, we don´t have codels."

Fans of Glenn Beck are complaining about what I wrote yesterday about his speech at the National Rifle Association convention, where he used a giant image of Michael Bloomberg photoshopped into what appeared to be an image of Hitler with his arm raised in a Nazi salute and wearing an armband. The Beck crowd now tells me that it wasn’t Hitler’s picture into which the New York mayor was transposed but that of Communist leader Vladimir Lenin. They say that means I owe Beck an apology along with the Anti-Defamation League and others who were also outraged by it.

John McCain is going to release a bill that would dismantle cable as it´s currently constructed, Brenden Sasso at The Hill reports. The legislation would force cable companies and satellite TV providers to give consumers an option to pick and choose which channels they get. This is called "à la carte programming," and it´s long been a dream of consumers who only want a handful of channels. McCain tried to introduce similar legislation in 2006 and it went nowhere.

The families of Navy SEALs killed in an August 2011 shoot-down of a helicopter in Afghanistan spoke at a press conference Thursday morning, citing a number of grievances, including an allegation that the Pentagon invited a Muslim cleric who “disparaged in Arabic the memory of these servicemen.” In addition to blasting the Obama administration for the mission and for an official investigation they deemed a cover-up, the families complained that “military brass, while prohibiting any mention of a Judeo-Christian God, invited a Muslim cleric to the funeral for the fallen

WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service is apologizing for inappropriately flagging conservative political groups for additional reviews during the 2012 election to see if they were violating their tax-exempt status. Lois Lerner, who heads the IRS unit that oversees tax-exempt groups, said organizations that included the words "tea party" or "patriot" in their applications for tax-exempt status were singled out for additional reviews. Lerner said the practice, initiated by low-level workers in Cincinnati, was wrong and she apologized while speaking at a conference in Washington. Many conservative groups complained during the election

Congressman Frank Wolf of Virginia has written House Speaker John Boehner, requesting the creation of a bipartisan Select Committee to investigate the Benghazi terror debacle. It is an excellent idea. A Select Committee is the only means available now for the U.S. political system to extricate itself from the labyrinth called Benghazi. There have been two fulcrum events in the accounting of what happened in Benghazi. The first was U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice´s September 16 declarations on TV that Benghazi was part of the Islamic world´s violent, spontaneous reaction to the incendiary California YouTube video.

A Catholic priest presided over a service Thursday to give proper names to the 45 babies whose bodies were found in the West Philadelphia abortion clinic of Dr. Kermit Gosnell. He is charged with killing five people - a patient and four viable babies that prosecutors say were born alive. He has also been charged with performing late-term abortions that violate Pennsylvania’s 24-week limit on the procedure. “People have names, people deserve names. The name expresses the person. The name recognizes that there is a person there.” said Father Frank Pavone during the

A new deadly “sex superbug” has been found in two individuals in Hawaii, after surfacing in Japan in 2011. H041, a form of gonorrhea that is resistant to all antibiotics presently available, is considered as deadly as AIDS, and is much faster at killing people. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention wants upward of $50 million from Congress to find an antibiotic that will kill the virus, which has also been found in California and Norway. Alan Christianson, a doctor of naturopathic medicine, said:
