Hillary Clinton had many good moments during the 2 hours I watched tonight.
So did Elijah Cummings and most of the 5 Democrats on the Committee, but for my money, Hillary's best moment came with one of the Republican women, Martha Roby, leading her through a series of questions in the staccato tones you'd use for interrogating some really vile perpetrator, but the whole thing was supposed to show how arrogant and uncaring Hillary was because she left the State Department the night of the Benghazi blow up, and she left her staff behind. So this Republican Congress woman is asking her name by name which of her staff was still in the office when Hillary left, to show that while all her staffers were so concerned and still on the job, Hillary just waltzed out of the office and went home. Home to her secure phone, where she talked to the President and a number of other relevant people and did not get to bed until 3 AM and got up again around 5 AM.
Ms. Roby: "So, were you alone?"
Ms. Clinton: "Was I alone?"
Ms. Roby: "Did you spend the night at home alone?"
Ms. Clinton: "Yes."
Ms. Roby: "The whole night?"
Hillary spontaneously starts to laugh.
"Well, I don't see what's so funny," her interrogator fumes.
Well, I did. I bet a lot of people in the room saw what was funny. She was asking Hillary if she spent the night, or what two hours of it she had left, alone. Did she have a lover at home? Was Bill there? Did she have sex while Benghazi burned?
Hillary, now 9 hours into the show, is a little punchy.
You want to know if I went home to a lover? You are actually asking me that?
The whole idea just tickled her.
Oh, yeah. It was pay back time for Bill, you know. All those women he had. Well, I just chose Benghazi night for a little fun and frolic.
Eventually, she got control and answered, "Yes, I was alone," shaking her head.
The Congresswoman, thick as a brick and dumb as a stick, was still flustered, still not seeing how ridiculous she looked.
Really, there is no chance for bipartisanship, for cooperation with the other side, for statesmanship, for any sort of actual governance as long as the stupid parts of America send such stupid people to Congress.
They are simply too stupid to govern, too stupid to talk to, to stupid to take seriously.
