Clinton Cackling During Hearings – Something Funny In Being Questioned About 4 Dead Americans
http://rickwells.us ^ | October 23, 2015 | Rick Wells

We might normally expect that the serious nature of the incident which occurred at Benghazi, a terrorist attack on an American facility that resulted in the deaths of four Americans, would encourage a somber tone among all participants, most especially on the part of the witness. If for no other reason than in the interest of good taste or the wish to project the appearance, however insincere, of a proper amount of respect being shown, proper decorum would have kept laughter out of the witness’ testimony in the House Select Committee proceedings.

The woman testifying should have recognized that she was in a hot seat, accused of criminal wrongdoing and likely espionage as well as the moral considerations of ultimately being the one responsible for those same American deaths. The House Select Committee on Benghazi hearings should have been a Clinton Cackle-free zone.

As one incapable of respecting anything or anyone other than herself, her immediate circle and her political and faux-charitable wealth generating machinery, Hillary Clinton was her usual classless, self-obsessed, arrogant and condescending self. Even as she was being called to account publicly for crimes and mismanagement that resulted in death and destruction, she found a place for inappropriate, odd laughter.

A similar outburst occurred in an interview a few days earlier with Jake Tapper when he asked about her emails; exaggerated, unprovoked, spontaneous cackling that went on for far too long erupted.

In the hearings, Rep Martha Roby (R-AL) was questioning the former Secretary of State on her whereabouts the night of the Benghazi attacks, and with Clinton having told her she was at home and alone, pursued it logically with a question as to whether she was alone for the entire evening. That was humorous for Clinton, too much so for her to contain herself.

When it became apparent that Rep Roby did not share Clinton’s cavalier attitude about the proceedings and what happened on that night, Clinton chalked up her odd behavior to the need for levity at an early hour.

The American people don’t need levity, Ms Clinton. We need answers, truthfulness, an end to the obstructionism and some genuine cooperation, all things that will not be forthcoming from a political criminal. Cackling is fine for Democrat functions, conventions and phony coronation-debates.

The Democrats, including Clinton and ranking Democrat committee member Elijah Cummings, have falsely claimed to be acting in the interest of the Benghazi families. Those families would surely have appreciated the deaths of their loved ones being treated with a lot more respect by the person responsible for putting them in harm’s way, the very individual the evidence indicates sealed their fates.

The optic of her laughing and high-fiving people over the deaths of 4 Americans serving overseas for our country should be great campaign material.

Also her wide smile and nodding when Elijah Cummings went off on a rant was very disconcerting.

“She is one totally whacked out demented woman. Fits right in with 0bama.”

The dominant culture seems to be one of entrenched mass delusion. Irrational, counterfactual, a never ending fantasy wish list which ignores or repudiates all hard facts.

It looks to me that Hillary behavior over the last couple of months must be due to some sort of medication. She seems very happy and breaks out with her horse laughing at anything. I have never seen her so happy. That is not her nature.

Right now the the rank and file career law enforcement and intelligence agents have to be smoldering hot right now.

I’m pretty sure factions within the CIA and FBI have surprise leaks for Hillary. She must have made some pretty creepy enemies in the CIA.

I noticed that smirky little laugh in one the of sound bites yesterday. NO WAY could I have watched the debacle or my TV would have been mortally wounded.

God almighty help me, I hate that woman with an absolute passion. A two bit wacked out corrupt lawyer and Democraps think she POTUS material, unbelievable. There is not ONE single job she has ever held that she has done successfully other than defend rapists including her husband, and she has the unmitigated gall to make a video like this?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQ7543nJngk

The first time I saw that video it took me a while to believe it was real, I was seriously doubting its authenticity, whether someone took a video of her and somehow had dubbed in her voice. But the video IS authentic. This woman actually DOES have the absolute gall to make a video like this because she’s a freakin’ psychopath.

She is signaling the tame media that the event is not to be taken seriously. Also, by laughing and high-fiving, she demotes the event to mere political maneuvering on the part of her opponents and pretends to stay aloft and unbothered by it. I think the Clinton handling of crises that would have destroyed lesser politicians has worked. Only time will tell if she still has that old Clinton magic or if she overplayed her hand.

Every clip I’ve seen of hillary testifying shows her as smug, condescending, evasive, and telegraphing with every gesture that she has better things to do. The smirking surgically enhanced cheeks like a chipmunk from hell are particulary gag-worthy.

That last clip looks like Nixon getting on the Marine 1 after he resigned.

Yeah, those are tough to look at, and I’m sure some people will be offended by them being posted, but sometimes you just have to get the cold-hard reality out.

She thinks she’s untouchable which is why she smug and always laughing, that’s why I am DYING to see this effin b*tch debate Trump. To finally have someone with the guts to completely eviscerate her, completely expose this bitch and on national TV no less is like a miracle. He will bring up every single last thing on her.
