Andrea Mitchell: Women In Admin. "Very Angry" With Obama Over Susan Rice
Real Clear Politics ^ | December 13, 2012 | Andrea Mitchell

Posted on 12/13/2012 10:14:22 PM PST by Seizethecarp

ANDREA MITCHELL: A lot of Democrats are saying that the president did not show enough loyalty. A lot of women in the administration are very angry tonight, and I'm saying this at a very high level. Angry because they feel that she was not treated with respect, she was not given the support she needed and she was left to twist in the wind.

RACHEL MADDOW: They're angry, with whom though?

MITCHELL: Angry with the White House. And with the boss, with the president, for not be willing to fight this out. That he's backed down in the face of a challenge from the Republican minority, after having won a reelection victory. And most people in the foreign policy community understand that as qualified as John Kerry is, and he's superbly qualified, he was trained -- he lived for this post -- a son of a diplomat, and clearly wanted this job and will get this job.

But the anger is that she was not responsible for Benghazi. And that what was said on those Sunday talk shows -- if you were to deny a promotion to everyone who misspeaks or gets something wrong on Sunday television, including all of us, there would be no one left in Washington.

After Hillary`s inaugurated in 2017, she can make amends to Susan by naming her the ambassador to Libya.

So Jarrett’s ticked off at Obama, eh? Watch him do something stupid now to appease her.

Of course, they are not at all angry with the butchering of an American diplomat. Oh, no, that’s one emotion too far.

I don’t know if it makes much difference. Obama will just appoint another incompetent, lying bungler...just like himself.

I assume she’s talking about Michelle, that’s about as high up in the administration you can go. Michelle will withold sex from Barry until he appoints yet another woman to the Supreme Court of something. Rice has been cooked, served, and eaten. Good work and a job well-done to McCain and his gang of two.

Yea, Hanoi John Kerry. Guess that’s better than having him as Secretary of Defense.

misspeaks?

Once,maybe but 5 times is not misspeaking.

We will still get a barking moonbat for S.O.S., just won't be that particular one.

At the end of the day, they’ll all bow their knees and kiss the Master’s behind.

Obamugabe made a big deal about signing the Lily Ledbetter Act in the campaign... but analysis proved that he paid his female employees less than his male employees. His female staff members knew that already, and they still work for him. They are willingly working for a hypocrite.

So who required Susan to become Obama/Clinton face on the Benghazi mission? Everybody already knew that JFKerry wanted that job. And his good friend Lord McCain intends to make that happen. Susan is daft on politics. It was high politics not high praise for her to visit with all the liberals Sunday morning worship hours, spewing the liberals lie.

Both Andrea Mitchell And Susan Rice have family members who were in top federal reserve positions...trying to protect their influence.

Then Andrea should ask why Hillary didn’t go on those 5 Sunday shows instead...Rice saved Hillary the humiliation.

Rice lost the nomination because of her shabby past.

As soon as Susan Collins brought up Rice's missteps in the African embassy bombings in the 90's all momentum in favor of Rice stopped.

Apparently Rice also was instrumental in blocking Bin Laden's transfer from the Sudan.

Yes, Benghazi was certainly one issue. But there were a whole lot of other issues involved.

Vapid, a term that is interchangeable with the terms, “liberal women” and “democrat women”. Another interchangeable term would be “hypocrite”

Obama will probably give Rica the American Medal of Freedom for her heroic sacrifice.

Oops - Rice, not Rica. But who really cares anyway.

Leftists hate it when one of their smash mouth liars gets defeated by normal people.

I have a feeling Hussein and/or Rice didn’t want the subject come up regarding her $45 MILLION stashed in accounts outside of America. It couldn’t be the issue of her incompetence, as all of Husseins flunkies are incompetent.
