No need to answer--that's a rhetorical question. (And they SHOULD be terrified.)

Ha!
Is she even Presidential material?

From the OP link;

" She greeted the man whose son who had bravely attempted to fight off far more numerous and better-armed terrorists on the roof of the CIA annex and who gave his life.
Did she praise the courage and self-sacrifice of the decorated Navy Seal?
Did she express regret that he had been left nearly alone to fight off the Islamist terrorists?
No. Not even the flag-draped coffins spread before her could shake Hillary Clinton’s iron determination to stick with the script.
She told Mr. Woods that they would catch the guy who made the Internet film and make sure he was punished."

That doesn't make it a scandal.

The shuttle Challenger exploded in 1985. Astronauts died. Things should have been engineered differently. That doesn't make it a scandal.

The real question is, why do Republicans want to keep beating a dead horse? Because they think there is some political gain to be had. It's the same reason the GOP spent $75 million of taxpayer money investigating Clinton, only to drop it five seconds after he left office.

Your post is proof of the OP assertion.

Operation American Spring.

They're terrified!

To the ones who call everything the Republicans political. They shouldn't talk with the history they have. And, when it comes to Joe McCarthy, he was a scoundrel but he was right about Communism and how it had infiltrated the country. Hell, just look at now. They are all over, mostly the Democrat party.

Anyone who thinks "Democrat" is synonymous to "Communist" is just a moron, plain and simple.

Communism is the complete public ownership of the means of production, such as factories. There are liberal Democrats as well as conservative Democrats. Even liberal Democrats believe in a private-enterprise economy. Sorry, but taxing the most prosperous in society to pay for a social safety net, isn't Communism -- and even President Eisenhower believed in Social Security.

But that is what has happened to a once great political party, the Republicans. They have gone down the rabbit hole, thinking that anything the government does to help people (who aren't millionaires or billionaires) is Communism.

GWB is responsible for the wall street crash, 9-11, and other travesties on his watch, because repubs were all in it together. Now Obama is dealing with a repub congress which is willing to destroy the country for their own perceived political gain. When did your repub-controlled Congress stop governing, and why do you righties ignore their actions in your diatribes against Obama?

If you supported Sarah Palin, or currently other right-wingers in the corporate repub clown car, since when do you care about "presidential material"?

And you question Hillary's patriotism when the biggest repub heroes in both politics and the media are phony chest-beaters and draft dodgers who gleefully send other young Americans off to die for the profit of their corporate base?? Now that is true devotion. Your shifty repub heroes even placed a media ban on showing flag-draped coffins from Iraq - bad PR for their war y'know.
When you gripe about what Hillary didn't say publicly at some media event (because you had a better "script" for her), and give these other slimeballs a free pass despite their real harmful actions, you certainly sound like a true blue obedient repub at all cost.
BTW, did you take note of the flag-draped coffins from the 60-odd deaths at our foreign embassies under previous repub administrations? You probably ignored those eh?
Did you also know that congressional repubs blocked requested security funding for those embassies?

As has been pointed out continuously on this forum, the phony RW "concern" on this issue stands exposed. IMO not a one of you righties gives a damn about these deaths - it's all about Hillary. Wah.
