She Didn't Answer the Phone

Rand Paul isn't necessarily my favorite Republican luminary. However, he does often turn a wryly humorous phrase, get in an ironic dig. For example, the L.A.Times reports the following about one of his speeches:
Speaking about Clinton, he used her famous 2008 primary ad, which argued that she more than Obama would be the president capable of answering a phone call about a middle-of-the-night crisis:
"I think she had a 3 a.m. moment. She didn’t answer the phone and I think it absolutely should preclude her from being [president],”
Clinton had to let those four men be murdered in Benghazi in order to preserve Obama's totally false election claim that he had exterminated Islamic extremism. A life-saving military strike in Libya would have illustrated how his boasts often represent wishful thinking.
