Epic Fail: Benghazi-Gate and Lying Hillary Clinton
Words that will live in infamy.
Courtesy of Right-handed Cartoons Well, that was a waste. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton gave over eight hours of testimony, and all we discovered is that she is a consummate liar who gets lauded and praised for being such. To watch the fawn-fest that masqueraded as a Congressional testimony was at times too much for me to stomach. Thanks to the video embed on CSPAN, I could fast forward through some of it. What is there to fawn over about this woman? She has effectively used the men in her circle as rungs up the political ladder. Married Bill and managed his Bimbo eruptions so she could finally get to the White House, used his influence to help her get elected Senator of New York, and in her run for the Presidency in 2008, she was effectively told by her party that she needed to step aside to let the Black man win. We all know Hillary Clinton was placed in the position of Secretary of State as payment for her loyalty to the leftist agenda. And what has she done in that position? If burning embassies, a more nuclear Iran, and an even crazier leader in North Korea are any indicator: Not much. Benghazi will be her legacy as Secretary of State, and the Obama administration's albatross. Four dead Americans deserve justice, and their families and the American people deserve answers. We got no closer to either after Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's testimony. The Democrats did their best playing sycophantic lapdogs. One or two even expressed their excitement to see Hillary run in 2016. Seriously? The Republicans weren't much better. Senator Rand Paul, Senator John McCain, Senator Marco Rubio and a few others played the scold and the speechifier, but I didn't see their questioning or their speeches any more effective than the panting of Secretary Clinton's Dem fanboys and girls. Senator Ron Johnson came off very effective, poking holes in the Obama administration's and Secretary Clinton's string of falsehoods after the Benghazi attack. The exchange is here: [youtube=http://youtu.be/8T4ySj9Qbek] "What difference at this point does it make?" is the most egregious thing she said in the entire testimony--and she said plenty that was egregious. It makes a difference, Madame Secretary, because you didn't bother to read Ambassador Stevens' cables requesting more security. It makes a difference, because you and Barack Obama went on record blaming a video for the attack, then had U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice posit the same story five times on national television. It makes a difference, because the creator of that video is still languishing in jail for doing nothing but exercising his First Amendment rights as an American, while the one credible suspect, Ali Harzi, was released for insufficient evidence--despite it being almost 200 days since the attack. Senator Ron Johnson in this morning's op-ed in USA Today personally answered Secretary Clinton's egregious statement:
"To answer Secretary Clinton, it does make a difference. It matters enormously for the American public to know whether or not their president and members of his administration are on top of a crisis and telling them the truth."
After this dog-and-pony show, we know for sure they can do neither. Personally, I'm rooting for an insider who will come forward and bring more evidence to support the truth, and expose the cover up. We are certainly not going to get anything from the Obama administration or the supposed FBI investigation.
