Look For WI Talk Radio Ron Johnson Rescue
Wisconsin's institutionally-senior but intellectually-junior US Senator Ron Johnson suggested Wednesday that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had faked her emotional responses at hearings about the Benghazi tragedies - - was been criticized in Wisconsin media for his degrading and demeaning behavior.
At first, she tried to respond to him with patience and grace, noting there were four Americans killed and others injured, which took the first priority. Johnson persisted with pressing his question; Clinton finally got fed up and let him have it.National writers took note and gave the decision to Clinton, too:
Clinton raised her voice.
“With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans,” she shouted at the lawmaker. Waving her arms and then pounding the witness table with her fist, she continued: “Was it because of a protest, or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided they’d go kill some Americans? What difference, at this point, does it make?”
Johnson stopped interrupting as Clinton continued. “It is, from my perspective, less important today looking backward as to why these militants decided they did it than to find them and bring them to justice,” she said.
Johnson didn’t attempt a rebuttal. “Okay, thank you, Madam Secretary.”Look for righty radio talkers Thursday to come to his rescue, perhaps bringing the Senate's most-sexist member on the air to let him redefine his encounter with the world's most-admired woman - - 11 years running.

all that was missing from the hearing was "at long last, senator, have you no sense of decency?"
Sooooo why did Hillary lie?
Drama queen, you're not fooling anyone.
Lie about what, exactly?
And in all this trumped-up kerfuffle, one thing that is never explained; Why, exactly, would the administration, or Hillary, or the underpants gnomes or whoever, go to such great lengths to change the story in those first few frantic hours? What were they supposed to gain?
"What were they supposed to gain?"
Protect the Presidents re-election at all costs.
Protect the Presidents re-election at all costs.
LOL.
I guess the corollary, then, is WHY was the tragedy in Benghazi supposed to endanger the President's election?
Here's what I'm getting at; just WHAT, exactly, was the big scandal supposed to be?
I think you would have more fertile ground investigating why the entire Republican Presidential field seemed to be working overtime to protect President Obama's re-election.
