It's perfectly clear from her full comments that Hillary Clinton was saying not a single American life was lost during the Libyan intervention. We heeded the calls of our allies, our partners in the region, and the Libyan people and helped topple a murderous dictator who was prepared to massacre his own citizens, all without putting American boots on the ground.

Put him somewhere else and he's the 'head-banging conservative' he once declared himself, maybe he doesn't realize how much has changed in the 13 years since he last ran for public office, but these days, the cameras are always rolling — and flagrant pandering isn't a good look.

They make cosmetic tweaks, whatever they think is enough to signal that they are taking things seriously. But they don't actually care, i have zero expectation that they'll make any meaningful changes to prevent another catastrophe.
