She is very tolerant towards acts of violence that others endured under her watch. "But what difference does it make?" It was a sad thing to say on her part. She marches on looking to break the glass ceiling while trampling along the way.

In the middle east, throwing shoes at e.g. a president means he should leave his administrative post. Throwing a shoe in this region is, at the same time, the most contemptuous action you can show for someone.
But I doubt the woman knew that ..

CNN Special report...

On the Special report;
Hill-dog and the cobblers son.
Mrs Clinton claims,
"I didn't know he had a girlfriend who was an Olympic shoe thrower!"

It was just my size and a pity she didn't toss its counterpart she went on to say.

Tune in later tonight for our special report on Wolfe Blitzer's female footwear fetish.

She's not the first and I doubt the last either.

I wonder how many agents got fired for allowing the crazy woman to even get close enough to toss a shoe? Those guys are supposed to take a bullet for their charges but, I guess they draw the line at footwear.

Well, you know what they say...if the shoe fits.

Questionable. She's no Cinderella.

I agree.

If they don't respect us, why should we respect them?

There are people I don't respect. But that doesn't mean I want to see them physically injured.

I seem to recall that the US Ambassador was killed by angry Muslims, and that the Republicans blamed her as part of their election campaign, and that she gave her condolences to the family of the ambassador.

Then why did you say you wanted her to be on page 1?

Anyway, I hope this doesn't get too heated. I respect you, man. In fact, I respect everyone I've argued with in this thread.

Well, if he thinks that Clinton was somehow responsible for the death of a Human being, or disrespected that person in some way, I'd be more worried if he wasn't flogging the horse, alive or not.

But it seems that that's not the case:

Quote:
“My biggest regret is what happened in Benghazi,” she said during a question-and-answer session after her keynote speech at the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) convention in a packed 4,000-seat room.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/politi...ba3_story.html

So I honestly cannot see what's so bad about Mrs. Clinton. I just can't.

She is a democrat? Or to be more precise she ain't a Republican.

Sure, I don't want to see her beaned by a size 8 but I would not be aghast if she was.

The story of Benghazi goes deeper then a few angry Muslims. The talking points initially spooned fed are not what they seem. These are her representatives stationed around the world. It is 9/11 and it seems any initiative for vigilance on this infamous day in history was not exercised. Who is to be held responsible?
