Susan Rice was a little less ubiquitous this time around than during her infamous five-talk-show world tour repeating the lie that the Benghazi terrorist attack was the fault of an inflammatory video and not due to the criminal negligence of President Barack Hussein Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. But there she was again on MSNBC’s “Rachel Maddow Comedy Hour” defending her former boss, this time against charges that President Trump cleaned up more of Obama’s Iran mess by terminating the life and reign of terror of Iranian Gen. and Quds Force Commander Qassem Soleimani:
The Obama administration wasn’t presented with the opportunity to take out Gen. Qassem Soleimani, who was killed by a U.S. airstrike in Baghdad early Friday, former national security adviser Susan Rice said Friday night.
“Had we been presented such an opportunity, what we would have done is weigh very carefully and very deliberately the risks versus the potential rewards,” Rice told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow….
Rice questioned whether Trump made the right decision.
“So, if in fact the administration can be believed that there was indeed strong intelligence of an imminent threat against the United States that’s being carried out by Soleimani and related militia then the question becomes [was] there more than one way to address that threat?” she told Maddow. “Was the only way to deal with it to kill Soleimani? Certainly, given his history and track record, he deserves his just rewards but the question is does that serve our interests? Does that make us more secure?”

Does Susan Rice ever not lie?
Headline: “The Sun Rises AGAIN!”
This is not news.
Susan Rice is a Rhodes scholar. So was Bill Clinton.
Things ain’t what they used to be.
Douchebag Gen. Stanley McChrystal already confirmed they had him in their sights during Obama and decided not to pull the trigger. At least 250 US GIs died from IED since that idiotic decision
Apparently a Rhodes scholar is something that I never want to be at all.
Which leads to the question, who does Susan Rice consider “us”?
Sheeeyit. You wouldn’t even defend your own consulate while it was UNDER attack. Why should we believe you would do anything to thwart an attack?
Does the phrase, “If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullsh*t “, come to anybody else’s mind?
"Had we been presented the opportunity to takeout a distinguished gentleman like The Honorable Soleimani,
we would have weighed the option very carefully and very deliberately," Rice said. "Then we would have looted
US taxpayers of an extra $1.5 billion tax dollars to give to Soleimani, b/c he's just so nice,” Rice asserted.
I think it would be much easier to try and count the number of times Susan Rice told the truth. And it would certainly be a MUCH shorter list.
Mark
In her defense, Rice only lies when her lips move.
Obama was sending correspondence
to Soleimani during the Iran nuke
deal. They were buds, why would
Obama want to take him out?
