State Department Can’t Name Hillary’s Accomplishments, Either

Two weeks ago, Hillary Clinton stammered out a non-response to a question about what she’d accomplished as Secretary of State that reads like lawyer’s poetry.

In less than 200 words, she managed not to say a single thing that acknowledged the question she’d been asked: “When you look at your time as Secretary of State, what are you most proud of? And what do you feel was unfinished, and maybe have another crack at one day?”

Today, an AP reporter tried a similar question on State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki. Asking about the State Department Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review (QDDR) – a quadrennial study that’s supposed to assess the State Department’s long-range diplomacy plans – reporter Matthew Lee tried twice to get Psaki to identify one useful thing to come out of the QDDR conducted under Clinton’s oversight.

“Off the top of your head, can you identify one tangible achievement that the last QDDR resulted in?” he asked. Judging from his subsequent antagonizing of Psaki as she dissembled into a non-answer Clinton would be proud of, he already knew where things were headed.

“Well Matt, obviously it’s an extensive, expansive process,” Psaki began. “We’re looking at how it was done last time. [Interruption] I know, I’m making an important point here. The Secretary wants it to be focused, it’s going to focus on a more narrow range of issues. Ah, it’s always to look at how we can improve things, and we’ll see where we come out in the end.”

Lee tried again.

“I am certain that those who were here at the time who worked hard on that effort…could, could point out one.”

Lee then modified the question to encompass the timeframe since Psaki was hired by the Obama Administration.

“Well as you know, I’ve only been here since it was concluded,” Psaki responded.
