Apparently some Democrats in Washington are incensed by Rand Paul’s questioning of Hillary Clinton yesterday when he told her that if he’d been president he’d have fired her. But Malkin says he was right on the money and notes that the reason they are incensed is because he hasn’t learned the DC way of speaking, that he hasn’t been assimilated by the Borg in DC yet.

Anyone who can draw concentrated hatred from the left has whatever small support I can provide, but how long can anyone rub elbows against the borg without yielding to the perks of slow assimilation? We need term limits for the health of our best public servants.

The Borg segments, part of the Star Trek TV show were better than most Sci Fi movies. It was brilliant.

Malkin is right it seems Rand is among a very few who haven't been assimilated.

When I heard Rand Paul speak, it made me realize how much I miss, good old fashion common sense. Common sense tells us that in a normal Admin, Hillary would have been forced to resign and her hopes for 2016 presidential run ruined, especially since it happened right before an election, but since very few politicians these days have common sense and the media is just another of the Borg, she gets a free pass and Rand Paul's real question, the one about gunning running via Turkey, is ignored almost completely. At this point and I do realize there's probably a handful of good congressman/woman and senators out there, but they all need fired.

Shift the blame is today's working strategy in WDC. DoS is so big Hilliary didn't know there were requests for more security. DoJ is so big the AG Holder didn't know about F&F. IRS bureaucrats mate up with HHS to adjudicate health care is the next liviathon to rein down chaos resulting from the ones in charge have no eye in unintended consequences. Linked up with total failure to think through the implications. Math, however, is coming. And Math's best friend is Reality.

Should Rand Paul continue to confront this regime and the Big Whigs amongst the ruling elite of the GOP and Washington as he did Clinton, I think he'll do great in a run for president in 2016 whether as a member of the GOP or as a third party conservative.

I'm not a libertarian - I consider myself a pro-life conservative - and I would support him if he ran as a pro-life conservative. The same I will say for anyone else who wishes to run as either a pro-life conservative third party candidate or a pro-life conservative Republican.

So Sen Boxer had to leave the room because she was so angry?

That's a novel excuse for needing to visit the rest room ...

Michelle Malkin is absolutely correct. Thank God for Sen Rand Paul, who hammered this inept incompetent liberal fascist ideologue with the Truth, with facts, with common sense, for her failed leadership !!

This is her job, it is what she is supposed to do, supposed to be there to ensure, to oversee the priority and critical aspects like the security / safety of US State Dept Ambassador's and the US Embassy Consulates around the world as the US Sec. of State.. Not act like some low to mid level bureaucrat.

The deflecting, evading, excusing, ie; the bull crap from her is so pathetic, so outrageous, so insufferably disgusting, it makes your blood boil, just like it does with Obama, her same like ilk Boss-the head anti-American liberal socialist marxist islamist traitor-in chief.

Good for Rand Paul! Hillary Clinton is no more remorseful and no more grieved by the deaths of those in Benghazi than Zero is. By the way, those stupid rules that the House and Senate impose on each Congressman and Senator are ridiculous! The House and Senate are not motherfu**ing country clubs, for the love of Mike. If it isn't in the Constitution, it's not a real rule. I hate the politically correct society we have allowed ourselves to become today.

Hillary Clinton is an idiot of the first order. She and her idiot husband are indicative elements of what is wrong with this country. The sooner they are both gone from the landscape of America, the better America will be.

I hope Rand stays the way he is. He is probably the only true conservative in politics. Michele Malkin is correct. I hope Rand Paul runs for president, who else is left among the republicans? Obama must be impeached.

and furthermore....

I have no idea of what you are thinking I can't handle but here is something I found after I left this site to see what news I could find about my favorite candidate!...

Lets see if YOU can handle IT...:D

ABC News’ Michael Falcone reports:

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Think you’ve heard the last of Newt Gingrich? Think again.

The former House Speaker and unsuccessful presidential candidate sounds like he’s back and, by the standing ovation he received at the Republican National Committee’s winter meeting in Charlotte, better than ever.

Ms. Malkin great call, Let us all hope that Senator Rand remains as independent as possible.

He to me seems like the only one that has any man hood in the whole senate.. all of the ones that I saw were the weakest bunch of panderers I have ever seen.. Boy they sure are PW'd when it comes to Mrs Clinton.. She really did not deserve any ony of those kind words that were said to her.. She Blew It and Her Boss Knew it.. They Both Lied and four good Americans Died. But "What Difference Does It Make "...

Rand Paul for President. If he runs, I won't even have to think about voting for him. See, Hillary Clinton thinks she's royalty. She's a public servant, and she is angry that she was treated like the treasonous b___ch she is.

The best indicator of who on the republican side is most in line with conservative thought and principle is the guy or girl who can get the DC liberals panties in a wad and have to leave the room because they are, just! so wee weed up.

I think we have a winner here folks, keep it up all the way to 2016 and he will have my vote.

I cannot stand Michelle Malkin!!!

I will NEVER FORGIVE HER for jumping on the band wagon to destroy THE BEST ONE FOR NOMINEE we had, NEWT GINGRICH.

(actually...I will and do forgive her...we all are dumb sometimes) BUT...I won't listen to word she says anymore.

The scripture the LORD gave me on election day is this...

Psalm 121

A song of ascents.

1 I lift up my eyes to the mountains—

where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from the Lord,

the Maker of heaven and earth.

Just like my rights, my help comes from THE LORD!!

NOT government!!

Praise GOD! Praise GOD!

You mean the same Newt that supported cap/tax before he was against it, got on board with socialized medicine before he was against it, voted to create the Dept of Education, and the Fairness Doctrine?

He also called Ryan's Medicare plan "right wing social engineering." Newt talks a good game but he's been corrupted by DC. He wasn't the answer either.

You're barking up the wrong tree, Malkin is a real journalist and exposes both sides.

Too bad you can't handle that.

They'd be incensed if he had sent her flowers... Greg Gutfeld's book is all about this.

Rand called it right and was honest. In an uncorrupt country, with a leadership that wasn't literally insane, what Rand said would have happened - Hillary would have (should have) been fired. Many people in our leadership were criminally complicit in this tragedy. Many of them could have done something to save those men.

Rand's response to those who are crying foul should simply be: "What difference does it make?"

"Some Democrats reacting "furiously" to that moment. Barbara Boxer left the room she was so angry."

WHO CARES!?

"Pygmy's and partisan tormentors"

LOL! What the....what, are radicals running out of words to call us now? I suppose Hitler doesn't work as well anymore.

"Why is the mere question such an offense (to the left)"

It isn't an offense, it's a DEFENSE! Liberals defend theirs mercilessly when they are being ridiculed, and they bank on the fact that well-meaning people, or in the repugnantcan's case, the spineless jellyfish, cower away in apology for having raised such tough questions. Their strategy is to silence OPPOSITION IMMEDIATELY. The quicker the better. They have found that the best way to win is to spin the tables and attack, attack, attack. Discredit the opposition thereby taking the focus off of their blatant failures and evil agenda.

Think of the toddler having a tantrum in a toy store. What better way to stifle adult behavior and discussion than to act like a spoiled child in front of as many people as possible. What does the mother in the toy store do? What are her choices? We need a child psychologist to help us deflect the tactics of the Left.

Rand Paul was my hero yesterday! I am sick and tired of officials made to look like the second coming when they were responsible for the death of our people. Obama is the guiltiest...he would NOT send help for fear of stirring up an international incident for the weapons running project he had going for the Rebels in Syria. Clinton did nothing to protect our ambassador and she is just as responsible. Good for Rand...he is looking better and better for 2016!

you can forget about most Republicans in Washington D.C, there are literally a handful of good congressman (look who voted against sandy pork bill) and a few senators, the rest are establishment deal makers. The GOP leadership are too frightened to stand on principles and push the government to the debt limit and the Dems know this.

It couldn't be more obvious that Hillary, hubby, and all Obama's people haven't a shred of integrity. Gross mismanagement of an agency is reason to step down, but refusing aid and getting 4 people murdered is inexcusable. She is incapable of shame or guilt, same for Obama and Bill.
