Bill Clinton told a man who identified himself as a Marine to “shut up and listen” after the man heckled him about Benghazi at a campaign rally in South Carolina. 

The man, who said that he had done two tours of military service in Iraq, started asking Clinton a question about the Veteran’s Administration, but then suddenly pivoted to the issue of Benghazi. 

“We had four lives in Benghazi that were killed, and your wife tried to cover it up,” the man said, referring to the terrorist attack on the US compound in Libya, which resulted in the death of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. 

“Go ahead,” Clinton said.

But as Clinton tried to get a word in, the man kept talking, drawing boos from the crowd. 

“This is America, I get to answer back,” Clinton said. “I heard your speech, they heard your speech, you listen to me now.”

I'm not your commander-in-chief anymore but if I were, I would tell you be more polite.
