Our POTUS doesn't have the cajones to admit error. It takes SOME kind of backbone to admit that. He doesn't have it; never did; never will.

I've ALWAYS found (since I was an adult) that it is BEST to admit error or apologize AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. Immediately, is best. The LONGER one waits, the tougher it is.

Besides, it puts the other person in a tough place. :o) "DANG, she apologized! Now I can't hold on to my "pissed off" anymore. What a wet blanket!!"

So why haven't you resigned?

That is an EASY question to answer!

Rice follows the leadership of her boss. After all, he is the One who needs to resign.

5. Why did you lie to the American people on five Sunday news shows? It was easily decipherable, once emails were obtained via Freedom of Information requests that you had been coached and instructed to lie to the American people on the five Sunday news shows. The question remains as to why you did. Shortly thereafter you were promoted to National Security Advisor--hence rewarded for lying to those of us who pay your salary.

Because Hillary did not want to lie in front of the cameras and hurt her 2016 political ambitions. Hillary is the one who made up the video story and did not want to be questioned about it.

Excellent piece!

I don’t know why these dumb broads (Hillary included) let Bambi use them this way. She knew nothing about it, her job had nothing to do with it, and yet she was willing to run out there and say whatever Obama wanted her to say. And she’s still defending him, just the way Hillary did and continues to do.

Simple question: Where was the supposed CIC while our people were being murdered?

The American people have the RIGHT to know.

The lie is the weapon used most often by the criminal. Go ahead, ask any criminal to self-correct, to stop lying. The marxist-socialist-totalitarian criminal has a massive support system. Self correct? Never. Stop lying? Never. They continue on destroying the foundations of any civilization. Witness history. Witness current events. Incarceration/elimination has been an effective solution.

Bastiat - Socialism Is Legal Plunder...

“The war that we must fight against socialism must be in harmony with law, honor, and justice.”

But why does not Mr. de Montalembert see that he has placed himself in a vicious circle? You would use the law to oppose socialism? But it is upon the law that socialism itself relies. Socialists desire to practice legal plunder, not illegal plunder. Socialists, like all other monopolists, desire to make the law their own weapon. And when once the law is on the side of socialism, how can it be used against socialism? For when plunder is abetted by the law, it does not fear your courts, your gendarmes, and your prisons. Rather, it may call upon them for help.

“Danged if I know,” Rice said, to audience laughter. “I mean honestly, the administration has produced, I think, 25,000 pages of documents. It’s hard to imagine what further will come of yet another committee."

That is the current "Fax it to all good Leftists" blabbing point. The reliable left wing mouthpiece Bob Beckel recited it almost verbatim on "The Five" the other day. One of the reasons the left is so pwerful is that they stick together no matter how stupid the orders from headquarters are. RNC...please note!!!

This week while fielding questions at a foreign policy lunch you broke out a new piece of your stand-up act. The "scoff at the idiots still asking about Benghazi" portion of your routine actually scored laughs from the mostly friendly crowd who came to lunch with you.

“Danged if I know,” Rice said, to audience laughter. “I mean honestly, the administration has produced, I think, 25,000 pages of documents. It’s hard to imagine what further will come of yet another committee."

...[she] went all "hood-rat" by saying, "Danged if I know..."

Danged if I know what a "hood-rat" is, though it suggests some sort of low-life black ghetto slum dweller, and if so is wide off the mark. "Danged" is, or at least used to be, a fairly common euphemism for "damned", along with the more profane "dagnabit". Gabby Hayes comes to mind.

I'd give her good marks for humor if not honesty.
