´What Difference Does It Make?´
Wall Street Journal, by James Taranto

Original Article

Posted By:Desert Fox, 1/23/2013 5:13:23 PM

Hillary Clinton is ending her tenure as secretary of state in fiery fashion. "You really get the sense that [Mrs.] Clinton barely managed to restrain herself from dropping an F-bomb there," remarks New York magazine´s Dan Amira. He refers to an exchange between the secretary and Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin at a Foreign Relations Committee hearing this morning. Johnson pressed her about the administration´s conflicting explanations for the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, which killed the ambassador and three other Americans. "With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans,"

If Hillary does run for president I have a great idea for a campaign add.............."what difference does it make" then you show pictures of the 4 dead American heros at Benghazi...this was a big mistake....she also said something very interesting in testimony at the hearing in the Senate...she said she personally tasked Chris Stevens to the post in Libya....I would think that if she personally did that wouldn´t you think she would be very interested in all cables as to his security.........

To Hillary, it doesn´t make a difference. She put on her side show, covered the administration´s butt, yelled at a Senator. A successful day in all.

Sen. Johnson should have continued to challenge her and ask her what right does she or the President have to LIE to the American public. But, alas, he didn´t and they won again.

Sympathies to the families of the victims. They deserved so much better. How sad.....

Of course, I agree on every comment about this awful Sec of State. Bottom line? Brit Hume is right. This, today, was the Republicans´ big chance. As he said, "they failed"

Ambassadors, with the exception of U.N. ambassador, report to the secretary of state. That creates a privileged line of communications from ambassadors to hillary. as Secretary of State. And as was noted above, Hillary and Stevens had a special relationship.
So when libya was descending into chaos, and the brits and the red cross bailed out of benghazi, and Stevens was begging for additional security, Hillary was not reading his cables.
That is peculiar, and if she told the truth, indefensible.
Finally, I know something about federal employment. And when Hillary said the four state department people responsible for the security lapse had to be on paid leave, due to government regulations, that was a huge lie.
They could have been fired, with appeals available to them. Instead, they are on extended paid vacations.
Hillary is, indeed, a congenital liar.

It made enough of a difference that Obama and Hillary thought it was important enough to lie about it and to cover up the truth.

I watched the entire hearing and thought the republicans asked all the right questions.

Given that Hitlery was always going to lie what more could have been done.

"What difference does it make?" Ask the families of the 4 dead Americans.
Ask those same families how they´d feel if the knew that that ceremony you and barack put on for their display didn´t actually have the bodies of their loved ones in the caskets.
Ask them what difference it would make if they knew that you staged that event because it fit into the campaign´s timelines and the bodies couldn´t actually arrive for almost 4 more hours--but that wouldn´t fit into the schedule.

If I were the Republicans in the House I would bring in those families to testify before she speaks to the House panel. The Senate Republicans should do a press event with the families showing their outrage with what she said. Joe Biden would help them put it together and could use the footage for ads in Iowa & N.H.!

Neither of the scenarios she mentions involves Al Qaeda. This callous remark is just teeing up the fake "tearing up" that immediately follows.

Nominate her for special effects.

President Obama has been struggling to push his agenda through Congress and boost his popularity, but now there is another bit of bad news for him to chew on: A poll indicates that Obama would lose an election to Ronald Reagan, the champion of conservatism, if such a choice were possible today. And it would be a landslide. Fifty-eight percent of Americans would choose Reagan, according to a survey conducted by Kelton Research for the National Geographic Channel. Reagan, a Republican who won the elections of 1980 and 1984, would even

NORTH KOREA is a tiny dictatorship with a bankrupt economy, but its leaders are remarkably adept at manipulating global public opinion. In recent weeks, we have been exposed to yet another brilliant example of their skill. Scores of foreign journalists have been dispatched to Seoul to report on the growing tensions between the two Koreas and the possibility of war. Upon arrival, though, it is difficult for them to find any South Koreans who are panic-stricken. In fact, most people in Seoul don’t care about the North’s belligerent statements: the farther one is from the Korean Peninsula,

She took a rare step for any first lady into the legislative fight of the hour, saying her husband, President Obama, is “fighting as hard as he can, and engaging as many people as he can, to pass common-sense reforms to protect our children from gun violence.” “These reforms deserve a vote in Congress,” she said, drawing loud applause from hundreds of Chicago’s

A group of high-profile social conservatives warned Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus in a letter this week that their supporters could abandon the GOP if the party seeks to change its position on social issues, particularly same-sex marriage. Thirteen social conservatives, representing various influential groups, wrote Priebus ahead of the RNC´s quarterly meeting this week in Los Angeles to sternly rebuke the conclusions of a post-election report that advised Republican elected officials to adopt a softer tone toward social issues.

Can anyone explain what President Obama is doing to the Mideast? ´How´s that hopey changey stuff workin´ out for ya?" Sarah Palin famously asked, mocking Obama´s campaign slogan. The same could be asked of "that Arab Spring stuff," largely sparked by President Obama´s 2009 Cairo University speech seeking "a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world."

But a Philadelphia doctor on trial for murdering a woman and seven babies? It´s ignored. Those who get their news from the three major networks have probably not heard of Dr. Kermit Gosnell, now on trial in Philadelphia, charged with seven counts of first-degree murder and one count of third-degree murder for killing seven babies who survived abortions and a woman who died after a botched pain-killer injection.

President Obama is pitching his new budget proposal as a fiscal peace offering to Republicans, but the details suggest everyone should expect more conflict. The fiscal 2014 plan he released Wednesday is a very slightly modified version of his previous budgets that reduces the deficit by raising taxes and trading defense cuts for more domestic spending. The real news is that his budget ratifies much of the spending increase of the first term and tries to lock it in. He wants the feds to spend $3.78 trillion next year ($11,944 per American), which would still be 22.2% of national

For young Europeans, it must be difficult to imagine the routine deprivation that existed behind the Iron Curtain when Margaret Thatcher came to power. As a refugee in London during the Eighties, I had to smuggle necessities to my family in Poland: toothpaste, shampoo, washing powder and, hidden in the parcels, miniature editions of books that were banned there. Occasionally, these were found and confiscated – including, in 1984, a copy of Nineteen Eighty-Four. Mrs Thatcher’s role in changing all this cannot be overstated.

In the immigration-reform legislation soon to be released by the Senate’s Gang of Eight, there will be a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants — but it will require proof of the border’s having been secured, and it will involve an arduous process that could easily take two decades for those eligible. The mark-up process for the Gang’s legislation will begin during the week of May 6. There will be no limits placed on how many amendments can be added, according to a source familiar with the negotiations. These are the broad outlines of the legislation: Modernizing the legal-immigration system.

Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes.

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius conceded Monday that implementing the Affordable Care Act has been more complicated and frustrating than the Obama administration expected, largely due to Republicans who have opposed the law´s state-based exchanges and Medicaid expansion.

Myron Ullman, Johnson´s predecessor at JCPenney, takes office as CEO. When Johnson was initially wooed by JCPenney, it was to serve as CEO with Ullman as Chairman. In January 2012, Ullman was unceremoniously removed from the board. Gone with Ullman was any control the Board of Directors had over Ron Johnson and his control of JCPenney resources.

The state of California is reportedly considering legislation that would force group insurance policies to provide infertility treatment for gay and lesbian couples. Two men who have sex with each other for a year and do not produce a baby would be considered “infertile” under the proposed legislation. So would two women having sex. Since biology does not allow those without a uterus to conceive or those without a penis to impregnate, every year-long gay couple in California would potentially be covered by this new provision of California law.
