Had a few minutes this afternoon to flip on CNN, just in time for Joe Wilson’s (R SC) question to Hillary Clinton. He wanted to know why Susan Rice went on the Sunday shows instead of Hillary. Hillary very politely responded that there was a crisis going on and she had a job to do which was more important than making media appearances you self serving jackass. Wilson then spent the remainder of his time reading a letter to the editor that appeared in a Charleston paper from “a former state department employee” who is a self proclaimed expert in these things, and he had several questions which Wilson passed along. The first was where were the Marines? He obviously wasn’t actually an expert in these types of things or he would’ve known the answer, as Hillary replied that of course there were no Marines there because that isn’t the role they play. All this goes by way of saying that South Carolina, y’all need to stop voting for Wilson. In what he considers to be a hearing on an issue with vital national security implications, he farmed out his question to a letter to the editor in the local paper. At least he didn’t pluck it from the comments section under the online version, I guess.
