The uncharitable side of me puts that together with the "if you could have any posting in the world, what would it be" line as an extremely thinly veiled take on "Vinnie and Guido" coming up and saying "nice career ya got there... it's be a shame if someone were to set fire to it."
The 'rats on the panel were essentially saying, "we'd like to be able to protect you (if you play ball)".
Susan Rice Honored With ‘Great American’ Award Night Before Benghazi Hearing
by Debra Heine 8 May 2013
U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice was honored Tuesday night with the 2013 Louis E. Martin Great American Award.
The annual award, presented by The Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, is given to an exemplar of change, progress and willingness to take one for the team if circumstances require. (I may have made that last part up.)
Specifically, the organization is honoring Rice for her work in advancing U.S. interests, strengthening the worlds common security and prosperity, and promoting respect for human rights, another press release states.
The evening gala and awards ceremony, which included Vice President Joe Biden, came the day before State Department whistleblowers testified at the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on the terrorist attack that took place at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi last year.
