At Least She Showed Up

It all seemed to start with an extended love-fest orchestrated by the Democratic Committee Members, who fell all over themselves thanking Madam Secretary for her tireless service and olympian accrual of frequent flyer miles.

The take-away boiled down to just a few salient points:

The Secretary was, and presumable still is, fully responsible.

Nothing was her fault. It's a cruel world and stuff happens.

There were organizational lapses, and heads have rolled, sort of.

She can't read everything.

"What difference does it make?"

And isn't Congress partially to blame for its parsimonius funding?

Did we really expect a mea culpa?
