“The U.S. extends our condolences to all the families who have lost loved ones in this brutal assault," she said. "We remain deeply concerned about those who remain in danger.

"I spoke with the Algerian prime minister again this morning to get an update on this very difficult situation, and to underscore, again, that the utmost care must be taken to preserve innocent life."

Great. We are just sitting on the sidelines issuing statements filled with meaningless bromides.

Hillary was referencing Bengazi to see how a real terrorist situation is handled.

According to H!, normal Americans are not innocent, but racists/homophobes/etc folks who don’t pay their fair share.

Great foreign policy from the “world’s smartest woman” don’t you think? I am blinded by her competency and intelligence.

What she means is, “Make sure you kill ALL the kidnapppers, Algeria, cuz we ARRANGED for this attack, and our objective is to FINALLY trade Blind Sheik for someone —an objective we’ve had for a long time but needed political cover...”

Apparently, NOTHING must come between the Obama-Holder-Clinton plans to release the Blind Sheik
and Ms. Biowarfare to al Qaeda.

Innocent life? I guess that means Americans will be killed.

Or does this mean that they need to keep at least one American alive in order to make a successful swap this time?

Hill-Dawg is totally right - I mean, you wouldn’t want a Waco, TX or, like, a Benghazi or something to happen....

When a total failure gives you advice, you should really sit up and listen some.

Maybe we should drop ship her to go throw some lamps (though they’d like that Joo Bstrd stuff...).

Hey Hillary!
Good to see you back in the saddle.

Come on down to Congress, won't you? We have a couple of questions for you...

Clinton also told them to wash their hands after going to the bathroom and before dinner and to turn out the lights before retiring.

This situation scares me. We are dealing with 21 century Neanderthals and we refuse to use the tools that they respect. If we were smart we would have a number of Drones looking for targets of opportunity day and night. Our management should read George Patton’s play book and believe. Put this mess down before it gets started. We don’t want to another Africa Campaign because we went auto stupid.

Is underscored something like writing in all capitol letters to make a point?
