When you run across well read, educated, critical thinkers who roll their eyes and guffaw when you say things like this, and you wonder why they don't take you seriously, refer yourself to this statement and others like it that you and countless other leftists make each and every day, and then wonder why conservatives, especially those with higher levels of education, both formal and informal, think most leftists are too intellectually and morally stunted to be entrusted with any political power and cultural influence, let alone that which they actually wield.

Not her best moment as it makes for a bad sound bite. It will be her "you didn't build that" meme.

She should have said something more along the lines of - 4 Americans are dead, the issue is how to fix the security problem and still have a necessary American presence abroad, whether this was motivated by a video or some random gun men is secondary.

You mean lying, prevaricating, evading, ducking, dancing, hedging, shucking, and otherwise slithering and wriggling all over the hearing room in an attempt to cover her derriere for her inexcusable role in one of the most inexcusable and venal political debacles in modern American history?

Yes, she was quite impressive in this regard.

I'm not as sure the era of Slick Hillery will ever dawn, as you seem to be. It may yet be the case that when the pain threshold of a majority of Americans is finally reached and exceeded, putting yet another Alinskyite social transformer in office will be off the table.

Yes, it will be used as a sound byte by those who ignore context, like Droopy. And in that way it will be exactly like "you didn't build that" meme. However, Obama still won, so I suspect only people like Droopy responded to the out-of-context meme. Perhaps there are enough informed voters who object to sound bytes being taken out of context that it will have little effect.

Her point was sound and clear, aside from the sound-byte potential. Those who are making a big deal over Rice are doing so solely for political purposes.
We hate to seem like we don’t trust every nut with a story, but there’s evidence we can point to, and dance while shouting taunting phrases.

And in 4 years, few people will remember.

But how does she get passed Biden?

The ambassador who was murdered was a friend and colleague of Hillary's, for crying out loud. Their implications are despicable.

As for what difference does it make?
Let us first start out with the difference John Tobin considers it makes:
"The answer to her question is clear. An administration that sought, for political purposes, to give the American people the idea that al-Qaeda had been "decimated" and was effectively out of commission had a clear motive during a presidential campaign to mislead the public about Benghazi. The fact that questions are still unanswered about this crime and that Clinton and President Obama seem more interested in burying this story along with the four Americans that died is an outrage that won't be forgotten."

But the real difference is much more significant...for the difference it makes is whether people will die....Obama's admin has relied on their myth that he has "droned" these guys out of existence...that the Obama policy against terrorism was successful (ie going so soft in Libya Old Testament begin with)...and yet the facts are revealing more and more that his policy, like his others, are failing.

Yes, there is a difference when she, as is the Obama policy,
took no responsiblity:
she blamed Bush
she blamed lack of money (even though her dept had almost $3 billion in unspent embassy security funds)
she blamed "not receiving any cable warning of possible attacks"
she blamed work overload with Iraq/Afghanistan
she blamed Bosnia
for someone who claims to be "responsible" she sure blames others a lot.

But perhaps the biggest difference it makes is that when we understand motivation for murder, such as these, we have an advantage for preventing them from happening again....

She likely hopes her arrogance will be forgotten and her insincere emotion about lives lost will be remembered........Poor thing, it wont be forgotten in 2016

She is already "passed" Biden...the polls show Clinton more favorable than Biden...face it, Biden is a snarky sidekick....nobody is going to elect their drunk uncle.
