I don’t have time to think about the false controversy,” Rice said. “In the midst of all of swirl about things like talking points, the administration has been working very, very hard across the globe to review our security of our embassies and our facilities. That’s what we ought to be focused on.”
CBS host Lesley Stahl pressed on whether Rice ever wished she hadn’t taken the interviews.
“If you hadn’t taken those interviews, I’d be calling you madam secretary,” Stahl said.
“You can call me Susan,” Rice shot back, ending questions on the incident for which the former U.N. ambassador has become most known
It's like 3 card monte with this crowd.Rice said she had filled in willingly because of the then-secretary of state’s particularly “painful” and “stressful” week
Name one protest we were focused on instead of Benghazi, let alone that such efforts precluded us from doing anything in Benghazi.You know, one of the things the scandalmongers never like to talk about is how there really were worldwide protests against the video on that day.

Bengazi was unique. what you mention was a deliberate attempt to conflate other protests, into a terrorist atack in Bengazi.You know, one of the things the scandalmongers never like to talk about is how there really were worldwide protests against the video on that day.
By September 2011, Western counterterrorism officials had become increasingly concerned with the role Islamic radicals were playing in the revolt in Libya, and worried the weapons acquired by them during the war would be used in future terrorist attacks
true.This issue has become so politicized I just couldn't care less anymore.
You kids have fun with it.
The GOP senators suggest that Rice, and the Obama administration, deliberately misled the American people in order to spare the administration from charges that it was not effectively battling terrorism.
We don't know what to make of the GOP's charges, but we do know that the GOP is missing a more important Susan Rice story, one that involves a whopper of a made-up false rape claim.
Rice went before a closed door meeting of the United Nations Security Council and announced that Gaddafi's forces were issuing Viagra, the drug used to treat erectile dysfunction, to soldiers "so that they go out and rape" civilians in areas that support the rebels.
Less delicate voices were more blunt: "Rice is a liberal interventionist who was one of those to persuade Obama to intervene in Libya. She utilized this myth because it helped her make the case at the UN that there was no 'moral equivalence' between Gaddafi's human rights abuses and those of the insurgents

Gulf and Western powers have proved time and again that they can collectively overthrow leaders but after this then enormous vacuums often emerge.
Failing overthrowing the targeted government, then the same forces can cause untold mayhem and misery and this is currently happening in Syria.
Prior to this Afghanistan and Iraq witnessed outside meddling and the end result is two devastating failed states whereby terrorism, putting women in the shadows, religious persecution, sectarianism, narcotics, and other negative factors, continues to haunt both societies.
Therefore, the debacle in Libya is like a re-run despite the issues being different in each failed state.....
America, France, Qatar, the United Kingdom, and other nations, had lauded the “new Libya” after the overthrow of the Gaddafi government.
However, while the usual players bombed the Gaddafi government from the sky, provided assistance on the ground covertly, funded various terrorist and militia groups, sponsored mercenaries, and provided logistics; the end result in modern Libya is a failed state
A: nothing. It's just specious deflection.What has that got to do with a terrorist attack on 9/11??!!
"What difference does it make?"

What difference does what make?
true.
this is the real story on Libya, Hillary Clinton is culpable too.

cute. :roll:So let me get this straight. Susan said they issued Viagra to Gaddafi's forces in order to make them hardened terrorists?
Al-Qaeda considers all the people to be infidels,” Mr. Gaddafi declared in a speech weeks before NATO began its military intervention in Libya. “They deem all people their enemies. They know nothing but killing.”
The Islamists would pour in from Afghanistan, Algeria, and Egypt, he warned, saying, “These are beasts with turbans.”
cute. :roll:
Qaddafi would not allow AQ to roam, like they do now.
what is with your "this or that" take on events? Every other word is "totalitarian".Qaddafi tortured everyone, even his family's personal servants. Do you really support mass murdering totalitarian dictators?
