Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton committed her second gaffe in as many days on the campaign trail Monday night, claiming that the U.S. "didn't lose a single person" in Libya during her time as secretary of state.
Clinton made the comment defending her push for regime change in the war-torn North African nation at an Illinois town hall hosted by MSNBC.
"Now, is Libya perfect? It isn't," Clinton said. After contrasting her approach toward Libya with the ongoing bloodshed in Syria's civil war, Clinton said "Libya was a different kind of calculation and we didn't lose a single person ... We didnt have a problem in supporting our European and Arab allies in working with NATO."
Clinton made no mention of the Sept. 11, 2012 terror attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya that killed four Americans: U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens, information officer Sean Smith, and former Navy SEALS Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty.

Depends on who she meant by "we".
Exactly right—what you said.
According to Hillary, we are call "useless eaters".
What I had thought was political lying, now seems to be more in the derangement area.....this woman has mental problems, in addition to being manifestly evil.
...or a swivel-eyed loon.
You and I of course are nothing but useless, for we offer her no votes. In fact we are deterrents that are better served as worm food.
Hmmmm ..?? Gay men and military
I’m pretty sure she doesn’t like either.
Thanks
Maybe off topic but I appreciate the ping on this. I detest Clinton as a power-hungry corrupt liar and criminal. In fact, the more I see of her, I actually think we would have been worse off having had Clinton as president than we have been with 0bama in the White House the last seven years. Seriously.
The poster who said she sees people as expendable things hit the nail on the head. It’s true; this woman has absolutely no empathy at all. She is a psychologically damaged person.
Just like Stalin.
GMTA. Was going to post the exact same quote.
Someone once called her a “congenital Liar”...
this proves it.
She was asked if she would say anything to get elected..
this proves it.
One more Democrat in the White house..and America goes off the cliff.
This is what she believes. Tell a lie often enough and you start believing it yourself.
(A) Dementia or (B) deliberate deception and memory block. I’ll take B for $500.
She may have been talking about no US troops lost in military action connected with the overthrow of Ghadaffi, who you will recall was involved in a plane crash killing almost 200 Americans. The Benghazi deaths were part of the post revolution period. Remember all those deaths in Lebanon under Reagan’s watch, and the 6 or 8 Kuwait Embassy deaths a few month’s later. Also remember the huge loss of life in those 2 African Embassy blasts, I think during the Clinton admin.
Thanks henkster. The fact that she’s so tone-deaf — forgetting or ignoring the four deaths themselves, plus believing that she doesn’t need to own up to and acknowledge her monstrous gaffe — shows what kind of leader she’d like to be.
Madame Pinnochio will be eating those words.
!
She is a narcissitic sociopath. No doubt about it.
She didn’t say the “US” didn’t lose a single person. She said “we”...
