A panelist on Fox News' Cashin' In drew an odd comparison between Hillary Clinton's past remarks on the attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi and a hypothetical scenario in which she was assassinated.

On the May 3 edition of the show, panelist Wayne Rogers criticized the Obama administration's response to the September 2012 attacks and in particular then-Secretary of State Clinton's comments at a Senate hearing, in which she asked "what difference at this point does it make" when questioned about the editing process of a set of talking points relating to the attacks.

Distorting the nature of her comments, Rogers asked his fellow Fox panelists, "Imagine that Hillary Clinton runs for President and gets assassinated in the process and somebody shows up -- a Congressman -- and says, 'well, what difference does it make anyway?' I mean -- The New York Times would have it on the front page."

Host Eric Bolling agreed, adding, "They would have a field day."Co-panelist Juan Williams quickly explained to Rogers and Bolling that they were distorting comments Clinton made while testifying about the attack.

1. Fox walks and cohorts often in some bizarre mental fantasies and scenarios. Perhaps

drug testing at Fox might nelp.

2. How sad. I had to watch, then Googled to verify, that this is the Wayne Rogers who played in MASH...

Gone from being a caricature of a doctor to being a caricature of a human being.

3. Rogers is really awful. I've heard him a couple of times and I think he's demented..n/t
