They are throwing hissy fits about Hillary greeting her supporters after the 11 hour grilling (which they claim was a mere three hours; apparently no one can tell time there) with hugs, high fives and a very enthusiastic "Hey"! Apparently all this disrespected not only the four dead in Benghazi but veterans in general.
I was going to troll (briefly I know because anything but slavish devotion to all things RW gets you banned even if you are polite about it) but have no idea what my user name was and they track email addresses.

(1,307 posts)he tweeted the HEY photo and wrote "A happy Hillary at hearing. I'm not sure I'd be so ebullient at a hearing involving a U.S. Ambassador's death" and "The expressions of Secretary Clinton today are fascinating. One would not know the hearings involved 4 U.S. deaths."
They have nothing of substance to criticize her for; the best they can do is attack her physical expressions and gestures. Next move is to criticize her for wearing makeup (frivolous!) at the hearing.
(I love it whenever Joe says "If I were in such-and-such-position" because you know he dreams about being able to enter politics again. But he knows he can't with his dead intern, several marriages and rumored infidelities, and the endless hours of his TV show and all the awful things he's said, and the way he treats women on live TV.)

Even conservatives realize Hillary Clinton's Benghazi committee hearing was ridiculous http://huff.to/1OLxyx9
The website Drudge Report, lacking anything of substance from the hearing to report, used its splash to focus on a Clinton coughing spell.

(2,331 posts)And I want to get the RW view, not the media's version. A lot of them write well enough; there aren't too many obvious morans there, at least in the threads I visit. But they are paranoid and largely unconcerned with the welfare of people who differ from them. Largely unconcerned? I mean being willing to inflict bad things on them. All too many lack basic civility. On edit: and logic. They lack that too
