How to Focus America on Hillary's Libya Failure
Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | May 26, 2015 | Rush Limbaugh

RUSH: Let's go to Hillary and Libya. Now, we all know about Mrs. Clinton's e-mail snafus and we all know about her problems, and we all know about Hillary's genuine general incompetence as secretary of state and the fact she didn't achieve much and the fact that all the relevant e-mails have supposedly been deleted and are gone is evidence of this, we think.

Okay, so how do we nevertheless tie Mrs. Clinton to the boondoggle that's Libya? Benghazi's in Libya, for those of you in Rio Linda. And that's a boondoggle. It was a disaster. Four Americans dead. An attack, a terror attack that was known to be a terror attack in advance of its happening, which was lied about and blamed on a video, if you recall. Okay, so how do we overcome the media and get the truth to people? I mean, this woman wants to be the next president. People deserve to know the truth about this. Not that she's some savior. Not that she's some brilliant secretary of state, but she was a disaster.

Well, the American media is not gonna do it. The American media is not gonna cover Libya as a post-Hillary disaster. But it is. Just like Iraq is a post-Obama disaster. The Middle East is an Obama disaster. Okay? But the media, of course, is not gonna say so. Now, what you generally need in the media to persuade people or to call people's attention to something is pictures. Pictures are needed in order to attract and hold people's attention.

If the media flooded the zone with before and after Hillary pictures of Libya. Pictures of Libya before Hillary, pictures of Libya after Hillary, pictures of Benghazi and our consulate before Hillary, pictures after, if they did that, as if she were a Republican, then you could agree with me it would have a deleterious effect on her, right? But they're not gonna do that, precisely for that reason.

If they showed the e-mails from Hillary's team praising her for her ownership of Libya with then a picture of Benghazi, it would negate whatever these phony e-mails praising her are. None of that's gonna happen. My suggestion is this. The second best way to focus the people of the United States on Hillary's Libya disaster, and it's gonna require the Republicans to play. I mean, we, in conservative media, cannot ourselves do it alone. The Republicans are gonna have to play. They're gonna have to participate. Republicans should note that Hillary's most significant accomplishment as secretary of state is Libya.

The word "Libya" must be tied to Hillary Clinton. People are asked to list Hillary's accomplishments as secretary of state. And they don't know what to say. Remember that focus group that we had? They haven't the slightest idea. Okay, that's when Republicans come in and tell 'em, Libya, Libya is a great example of what Mrs. Clinton did as secretary of state. Really? Yeah, Libya. Take a look at it. And do it without any irony. Libya is Hillary's most significant accomplishment as secretary of state. No smirk, no smile, just say it and move on, and keep saying it. Just link Libya to Hillary.

What about her attempt to do the same thing to Egypt that she did to Libya?

Hillary with BFF Mohammed Morsi

Maybe just showing Democrat focus groups unable to think of a single accomplishment Hillary had as SOS would drive the point home. Those are hilarious.

“You can lead a liberal to the truth, but you can’t make it THINK...” - TCRLAF

We can provide all of the facts and truth we want, but liberals are just too stupid to get the point.

Unless it is presented in a comedic, mocking, Daily Show/Saturday Night Live-type format, the Low-Infos just won’t understand it.

Reagan could cut through a lot of the left-wing media nonsense, but we also have to keep in mind that this was well before the mainstream media was totally gay-controlled.

Would be wonderful if we could penetrate the communists MSM and get the truth out. They will never do it and they are part of the communists empire in America that want a dictatorship for profit.

I do think that showing incompetence is important with any candidate.

However, I think the issue with Hillary will be America’s 170 million females, and Hillary shouting “I am woman hear me roar.”

We need to figure out how to beat that. It’s one reason she feels absolutely zero pressure to answer questions from the press. Her female parts constitute 90% of her campaign platform. I can even imagine Ann Coulter walking into the voting booth and saying “Oh What the Hell...why not Girlfriend?!”

At the debate:

Candy Crowley: “Secretary Clinton, Libya was toppled during your time as Secretary of State and we had heroes murdered in Benghazi. How do you respond to critics?”

Hillary: “Candy, all of the world knows what a pig Moammar Qhaddafi was. Did I tell you about how he sexually harassed me in Tripoli? Well, he didn’t trip me up one bit. I made those MEN...those male pigs...pay.”

Jeb Bush: “Oh, Hillary, I am so devastated to hear that, and the love in my heart for all creatures makes me want to beg your forgiveness.”

Crowley: “I have papers right here, Mr Florida Bushie, that on a Clinton family visit to Kennebunkport, that you made a bedtime joke in front of Secretary Clinton. I don’t want to intrude into the debate, but ‘WHAT DID YOUR WIFE think about that kind of humiliation and abuse?’

Hillary: “Girls, girls...listen to me. We’ve got to stick together...this abuse is unfathomable.”

Jeb (weakly): “I’m really Trans-Jeb....”

Rush is exactly correct on this one.
