Hillary's "Plumbers" Hid Benghazi Docs
Investor's Business Daily ^ | September 16, 2014 | IBD EDITORIALS

Benghazi Scandal: Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton promised "unfettered access" to the Benghazi Accountability Review Board. But it turns out that promise may be as much a lie as the inflammatory video story.

We were not impressed by the methods or findings of the Accountability Review Board (ARB) after the terrorist attack on our Benghazi diplomatic mission on Sept. 11, 2012, starting with not interviewing the person where the buck was supposed to stop, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Shamefully, the ARB report failed to single out any individuals for violating procedures and did not recommend any disciplinary action. Some lower-level State Department officials were blamed for "performance inadequacies" but not "willful misconduct."

In other words, they were merely incompetent and didn't mean for Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans to get murdered by Ansar al-Sharia, a terrorist group with al-Qaida links.

Clinton herself escaped any real accountability for Benghazi in the ARB report, despite Amb. Stevens and others warning her office repeatedly that the consulate in Benghazi, surrounded by terrorist training camps, was a terrorist attack waiting to happen.

Somewhere, someplace, and hopefully a better place than here, Richard Milhous Nixon is laughing his ass off.

“Hid” or “destroyed”? Criminals all. Was sandy burgler (aka: the Thief of the National Archives) their mentor? Justice must find these degenerates.

I sure hope somebody copied or photographed these documents. Would be awesome if Trey Gowdy locates them. His hearing starts tomorrow! I’m sure the Dems will run interference every time he starts getting to close to real answers.

Sandy Burgler escaped jail through insider deal making. But was put on a probation that was to keep him away from government security. But when Hilary ran for POTUS she made him her National Security adviser and if she had gotten the nomination he would have been sitting in on the daily security briefings and once again in a position to doctor and destroy records or sell secrets to the highest bidder.

Clown Prince nobama had him as an adviser in his big conference a couple days ago in WDC on finding some sort of “strategy” in dealing with ISIS.

I have no inside knowledge but I would be surprised if the government does not have automated tools designed to move any and all emails meeting certain criteria to classified domain special folders. If so they could run rules and move all of Hillary’s emails on a certain topic like Benghzai to wherever. Backup data too. Surely the technology exists to do it. If something like that worked correctly no one would ever find those emails

I’m afraid he won’t have anything to laugh about until that worthless corrupt cretin Hillary Clinton sits in a dock while the charges are being read.

From this article:
"Mullen at one point had called Hillary Clinton's chief of staff, Cheryl Mills, to give her a heads up."

"The "seventh floor," Attkisson notes, was State Department "shorthand" for then Secretary of State Clinton and her staff."

From FR thread article"More Evidence of Benghazi Cover-Up":
"Cheryl Mills was one of the gatekeepers that decided which papers were provided."
From website "Arkansas Connections":
1) "A burglar breaks into the car of White House lawyer Cheryl Mills as she was preparing to testify before a Senate committee on the Whitewater affair. Taken, according to a friend, were her notes on handling Vince Foster's papers after his death."

2) "White House aide Cheryl Mills admits to the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee that she and White House Counsel Jack Quinn have withheld documents from investigators for 15 months, including a memo suggesting Clinton wanted the $1.7 million White House Office Data Base shared with the DNC."

3) "Several years later she will again testify about missing documents (in this case, e-mails) and when asked about them states: "[Your investigations will not] feed one person, give shelter to someone who is homeless, educate one child, provide health care for one family or offer justice to one African-American or Hispanic juvenile." "


The fingerprints of Cheryl Mills - a dedicated Clintonista operative whose special talent, going way back, seems to be the "disappearance" of evidence - are all over this.

But the RINOs in Congress played a game of interference to prevent principled Republicans from holding the Clintons accountable then... and it seems like the same RINO crowd will play the same game for Obama and Hillary now.

Thanks, great info about Cheryl Mills. Perhaps this will be the final straw that will zip her into that orange jumpsuit.

In her senate oversight hearings every other thing that come out of Hillary's mouth was ARB this or ARB that.

Now Hillary has been ARBusted and life is good. :-)
