McFadden: I think an awful lot of people think that we're less safe today than we were a week ago because these five guys are out.
Clinton: These five guys are not a threat to the United States. They are a threat to the safety and security of Afghanistan and Pakistan.

We want to get an American home, whether they fell off the ship because they were drunk or they were pushed or they jumped, we try to rescue everybody.
