Isn't a lie a lie anymore?

"What does it matter?" She says.

It matters to me.

Isn't it enough that it matters?If it matters to me it must surely matter to the families of those murdered?

you scream "what does it matter"....when you've run out of talking points and you are cornered and have no where left to go...last bastion of a congenital...well...you know .....it sure mattered when they were trying to convince everyone that a movie trailer that noone saw was responsible.....

you should read this...it's brilliant

"A couple of days later, it fell to the 45th president-in-waiting to encapsulate the ethos of the age in one deft sound bite: What difference does it make? Hillary Clinton’s instantly famous riposte at the Benghazi hearings is such a perfect distillation that it surely deserves to be the national motto of the United States. They should put it on Paul Krugman’s trillion-dollar coin, and in the presidential oath:

“Do you solemnly swear to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States?”

“Sure. What difference, at this point, does it make?”


Hillary’s cocksure sneer to Senator Johnson of Wisconsin made it explicit. At a basic level, the “difference” is the difference between truth and falsity, but the subtext took it a stage further: No matter what actually happened that night in Benghazi, you poor sad loser Republicans will never succeed in imposing that reality and its consequences on this administration.

Obama is the ultimate reality show, and real reality can’t compete. Stalin famously scoffed, “How many divisions has the Pope?” Secretary Clinton was more audacious: How many divisions has reality? Not enough."

Scream? Scream? Sir, I'm not screaming.

Perhaps the scream is in your head. You have been really off today.

Yes, Sen. Johnson the man who pandered for the camera to score talking point and then shamelessly claimed her emotion was staged to gain sympathy.

What a pathetic and shallow thing to even contemplate.

I'm curious if these Senators have even read the internal reports, as their questions would indicate no. At the least FOX and the National Review have their quotes to report against.

What a pathetic and shallow thing to even contemplate. but accurate and it was probably expected from her...you forgot sexist and homophobic

Yup, if you can't be trusted in small things, you can't be trusted
in big things.
I saw her testify for about 2 hours, more than i could take, and she
knew more about rope a dope than Ali, and knows more about stone walling then a stone mason.
In her outburst about "what difference does it make","she doeth protest
too much."

No need to see more testimony, just show us the tape from the situation
room the night of the attack, only that will tell the truth.
