Some questions for Secretary Clinton when she testifies on Benghazi this week
American Thinker ^ | 1/21/13 | Scott Varland

Posted on 01/22/2013 8:45:22 AM PST by Nachum

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has agreed to testify on the Benghazi debacle before the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, January 23, two days after President Obama is inaugurated.

I doubt that very many journalists and citizens will closely follow the hearing held so soon after the inauguration. But even so, I have some questions that a member of the Committee may want to ask. (Of course, these questions are the tip of the iceberg.)

1. On October 15, 2012, did you take responsibility for the lapses in Benghazi security that resulted in the 9/11/12 murders of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans.

2. Do you take responsibility for the State Department not improving security or withdrawing after terrorists exploded two bombs (one in April 2012 and the other in June 2012) at the American Benghazi diplomatic post?

3. Do you take responsibility for the State Department not improving security or withdrawing after a May 2012 terrorist attack on the Red Cross in Benghazi that caused the organization to withdraw effective August 6, 2012?

Honestly, why waste bandwidth on this?

Given the abysmal state of our corrupt government, coupled with Boehner and his companion idiots’ total lack of intellect and cojones, this will go nowhere.

“Just 1 question, Hanging or firing squad?”

Then bill the family for the bullets

You are absolutely correct. This woman is one of the best liars on earth. It will be a piece of cake for her and no media outlet will challenge anything she says. The Republicans will fall in line as they always do and give her praise for the handling of the situation. It would be better if she did not testify at all.

Hillary Clinton has no ability to recall facts unless she gets a multi-million dollar advance for a memoir.

Republican question: What happened and why?

Democrat question: Why are you so wonderful?

Their 10 minute, 10 paragraph question will leave little time for her response. Wouldn’t be surprised if BJ has an attack & hearing is canceled.

Gee Hillary,

We are so thankful that you have dragged your fat but into DC long enough to answer a couple of questions concerning your failure that resulted in the deaths of 4 Americans. Too bad you could not testify in a timely manner. Maybe some of your information might have saved all those hostages lives that were killed in Algeria by the same guns and terrorist that attacked in Benghazi.

SOS Clinton will be making a ‘statement’.

She will NOT be taking any questions.

Should do the same with another “advisor” Colin Powell. Subpoena this admitted advisor to this regime and let’s hear what he “suggested” about Libya and Bengahazi if anything. And while the House is at it offhandedly ask verify his voting record and if he campaigned for BO in both elections.

When asked why no help was sent in to help the SEALS as they fought off the al Quaeda contingent, Panetta said, "There was not enough time."

Question: "How could the administration know there was not enough time, prospectively? They could not know whether they would hold out 8 minutes, 8 hours or 8 days. So is the administration claiming to be able to see the future? Why was no military assistance sent in to save 32 people? Could it be that they wanted 32 silenced voices?

“might have saved all those hostages lives that were killed in Algeria by the same guns and terrorist that attacked in Benghazi. “

We read that the Obama admin advised the Algerian military to be cautious and use diplomacy.

But, considering how much this Administration lies, I wonder if they did the opposite and urged the Algerian’s to attack hard.

That way another drawn out hostage crisis is over only in a couple hours. Sure the hostages are all dead, but then it is no longer a distraction from Obama’s agenda to transform America.

Throughout history ... tyranny and tyrannical leaders do not recognize murder as a crime. Their cause is just, in their minds.
