The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
“What dig fence does it make now?”
I’m willing to move on to expanded weekend visiting hours at Leavenworth, but no further.
Hey, Susan Rice dropped a few balls too and look where it got her. Give Hillary a break... Considering her mind is jell-o.. and Bubba is a philandering snake.. her cookies are still killer. ;-)
“The Buck Stops Here” was only for that dumb hayseed Democrat shit Truman. No confusing Hillary’s self imposed mandate. Hillary first, Hillary always, Hillary (or legacy) forever.
This is not about the GOP. This is about men who died because there was insufficient security and our military was told to “stand down”.
The issue of the emails is infinitely more important than the already ghastly incompetence of her decision as to whether or not to act in response to the attack itself.
The issue is the carelessness and terrible disregard for national security assets she showed by placing her emails on her private server. WE WILL NEVER KNOW how many operatives and assets have been arrested, tortured, and killed as a result.
Hillary, the Bernie Delegates at the DNC Convention are yelling “Lock Her Up”.
You had better tell them to get over it before you go after the GOP.
So, she’s running entirely on the idea that she has more experience, but we can’t talk about what she did?
Standard Clinton Tactics:
Deny, Deny, Deny, Lie, Lie, Lie, Delay, Delay, Delay, Etc., Etc., Etc....
Then claim it’s old business and time to move on.
There is a difference between making a mistake and criminal action.
Ambassador Stevens has no comment.
Such a poor old doddering fool who never knows anything. Didn't know about Benghazi, didn't know about email security, didn't know how to wipe a phone clean, didn't know about the latest DNC antics, didn't know about her husband's affairs, etc.
- So why wasn't cross border authority issued?
- How far up the chain of command did urgent requests for this authority go?
- Where was Obama??
- Where was Hillary Clinton???
So many questions that need to be answered.
No, there was no ball dropped. When balls are dropped football games change. What happened here was that responsibility was dropped and people died as a result. The stake was not points in a game, it was people’s lives. Because someone in the seats of highest honor in the country had something better to do than protect those lives. That somebody now considers still more power to be her due.
“Mistakes were made” is an expression that is commonly used as a rhetorical device, whereby a speaker acknowledges that a situation was handled poorly or inappropriately but seeks to evade any direct admission or accusation of responsibility by not specifying the person who made the mistakes.
The acknowledgement of “mistakes” is framed in an abstract sense, with no direct reference to who made the mistakes. A less evasive construction might be along the lines of “I made mistakes” or “John Doe made mistakes.” The speaker neither accepts personal responsibility nor accuses anyone else. The word “mistakes” also does not imply intent.
The New York Times has called the phrase a “classic Washington linguistic construct.” Political scientist William Schneider suggested that this usage be referred to as the “past exonerative” tense, and commentator William Safire has defined the phrase as “[a] passive-evasive way of acknowledging error while distancing the speaker from responsibility for it”.
A commentator at NPR declared this expression to be “the king of non-apologies”. While perhaps most famous in politics, the phrase has also been used in business, sports, and entertainment.

OK then, Hilliary! dropped the ball on Benghazi so let’s let her have the nuclear football to play with.
Sounds like “RAT thinking.
We need to move on but my local pinko PBS station does a special on Watergate once a year.
The ball was dropped. Mistakes were made.
