Fresh off her smash-hit performances on five different talk shows in which she adamantly blamed an obscure video for the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, CBS News reports that President Obama is likely to name U.N. ambassador Susan Rice to replace Hillary Clinton as secretary of state.Yes yes, Benghazi something something, and boy isn't Susan Rice awful for showing up in the halls of government with the same last name as the GREATEST SECRETARY OF STATE EVER!
Not only is she credible and telegenic, but as CBS News notes, White House sources say the president feels he should be able to select any cabinet officials he wants “and they say that Rice has performed well on Iran and North Korea.”
Complaint/humour from the Bizarro World:
No word on whether whether that assessment reflects the progress of Iran’s nuclear program or its attack on our drone.
