In reply to the discussion: How come Hillary supporters can't present an argument for her? [View all]fadedrose
(10,044 posts)True, they were making a fuss, and no one thought there was one to be made (However, a few people were let go/asigned to another agency/whatever at the result of Benghazi). She was being questioned as to why the embassy was attacked, and she yelled, "What difference does it make?", and she loudly posed some "maybe" this or "maybe" that's to the questioner.
Of course, the House members are only there for 2 years. She was better behaved at the Senate Hearing, where Lindsay Graham said that if it was up to him, she'd be fired, and she let that pass...
But back to the House, they have the right to ask questions, and people should answer politely, even if their replies are not to the liking of the questioners or vice-versa.
Diplomacy is for diplomats. Like the next day, Kerry was interviewed by the House for his SS position, and at the end of his shpiel, he added, to paraphrase, that Mrs. Clinton did not mean to infer that matters "made no difference," and forget what excuse he made for her rudeness...No one heard that but me apparently.
Sadly, Democrats all cheered her for her actions, which will be played at every Republican commerical against Hillary when the campaign starts in earnest. They've already played it ten times or more that I've seen.
