Hillary Clinton, in a chapter from her forthcoming book "Hard Choices," rails against congressional Republicans for politicizing the deadly attack on the American diplomatic facilities in Benghazi, writing that “I will not be a part of a political slugfest on the backs of dead Americans. It’s just plain wrong, and it’s unworthy of our great country."
Sources close to Clinton confirmed that an excerpt obtained by Politico was authentic. In it, Clinton gives a detailed account of the incidents surrounding the attack in a chapter entitled “Benghazi: Under Attack.”
“Those who exploit this tragedy over and over as a political tool minimize the sacrifice of those who served our country,” Clinton writes.

Sooo....the people who deliberately lied to the American public about the nature of the attack on our consulate in Benghazi are accusing their critics of politicizing the event.
Bite me Hildebeast.

Actually stonewalling, lying, and failing to accept responsibility for Benghazi is arguably criminal incompetence.

Falsely blaming the attack on a YouTube clip and then getting your minions to go out and demand limits to our first amendment rights is criminal at the highest levels.

Hillary Clinton is shameless, self deluded, and very dangerous. Sort of like an animal with rabies.
Very sick. This dog needs to be put down.

I think that members of the Obama Administration committed treason against the United States by providing aid and comfort to enemies of the United States. Whether they did this because they were saboteurs or just idiots trying to enrich themselves really will only affect their sentences.
They know what they did. They know that one possible punishment for treason is death. They are going to fight like caged tigers. But, they are caged.

But hiding behind a lame video excuse and jailing the director to win an election is not political.

No, no, and no. WE the people selected our Reps to speak for us. The majority of the people want Benghazi fully and honestly investigated mainly because of her lies, and that is what is being done. Hillary and the DEMS have made it political by stonewalling, covering up and refusing to cooperate in a serious investigation where Americans died. It was political from the moment it happened, for the benefit Obamas re-election.
