Hillary's fury over 'stupid' Weiner's cover-up and betrayal of Huma

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is furious with how 'stupid' Rep. Anthony Weiner acted when he tried to hide that he'd carried on a series of sleazy sexting sessions with at least six women over the past three years.

The source said Hillary is mostly upset with how Weiner tried to cover up the allegations for a week before coming clean during a news conference on Monday afternoon.
'What especially infuriates Hillary is how Weiner blatantly lied, and then gave that embarrassing and humiliating press conference when he ’fessed up,' the long-time Clinton supporter told the Chicago Sun-Times.

After Weiner had accidentally posted a photo of his crotch on his Twitter stream last month, the Democratic lawmaker said his account had been hacked.

4. No direct quote from Hillary or Huma and just some 'source' is 'quoted'

8. Is this the same Hillary Clinton who lied to everyone's face about Iraq?
"The so-called presidential palaces ... in reality were huge compounds well suited to hold weapons labs, stocks, and records which Saddam Hussein was required by UN resolution to turn over. When Saddam blocked the inspection process, the inspectors left." 1998

11. Yes, the one who considers Hosni Mubarak a close family friend
and the one who said that many countries get these reports of human right abuses, yes the same Hillary.
The same one who said that our relationship with China and commerce usurps their human rights abuses, yes, the same Hillary.

12. Is she following her Boss?
I would think that if she wasn't she would be fired. Just saying.

10. Furious? Nah, as Sec State she'll be measured
and diplomatic in response to a political scandal...any hint otherwise will of course come from an unnamed source. Oh! Well there it is...

Really, I'm not even sure she'll be furious in private. She's lived through sex-scandals and lying with someone pretty close to her.

I admit to having difficulty believing that people who live in the truth-slain landscape of politics are really furious about the lying.

People don't object to what was a very risky habit showing poor impulse control and (if the excerpts are correct) involving disrespectful language and behavior to women? People don't personally reject that behavior because it is unacceptable? But they object furiously to the human response to try to find cover?

I'm sure it's me; I just don't get it.
