Hillary Clinton rips Benghazi probe, says GOP admitted it’s a ‘political partisan committee’
The Washington Times ^ | 10/05/2015 | S.A. Miller

Posted on 10/05/2015 5:36:45 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Monday denounced the Congress’ Benghazi committee, seizing on controversial remarks by House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy that she said proved the panel was political hit job aimed solely at her.

Mrs. Clinton, who is scheduled to testify before the committee later this month, stopped short of backing calls by other top Democrats to shut down the committee, saying that is up to Congress.

“Now that they have admitted that it is a political partisan committee for the sole purpose of going after me, not trying to make our diplomats who serve in dangerous areas safer, that’s up to the Congress,” Mrs. Clinton, the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination, said at a forum in New Hampshire hosted by NBC’s “Today.”

The GOP did not say that. It was one idiot who has no idea and is trying to take over his pall as leader.

other republicans like Gowdy etc actually care about why Americans dies, why our consulate was over taken and why there was no support, and actually I would like to know where was the fairy boy when he was told, what was his action after being told and why did he go to a fund raiser when this happened?

NBC is really carrying the water for the hag after last night’s 60 minute campaign commercial.

Good job, McCarthy. This from the knothead who wants to be Speaker. ‘Denali’ Levin says he’s 10 or 30 IQ points shy of Cantor. That’s a low estimate.

Politics being what it is, there is no way to stuff this cat back in the bag. Hillary's appearance before the committee will be an ugly affair and the committee's effectiveness compromised.

“The GOP did not say that. It was one idiot who has no idea and is trying to take over his pall as leader.”

Mr. McCarthy may very well be an ally of Progressives, one of those sleepers who waits in the wings for the Queen of Diamonds to be turned over.

IMHO

Hillary is one calculated sister. Hillary keeps saying she "looks forward" to testifying ......... her way of duping the unsuspecting. The facts are these:

HILLARY PLANS TO USE HER APPEARANCE BEFORE CONGRESS AS A CAMPAIGN FUND-RAISER: Hillary's Hollywood-based fund-raiser told the LA Times....”Hillary’s much-anticipated testimony on the Benghazi matter before a congressional committee, will allow her to “further showcase her strength as a candidate.”

=============================================

The Clintons never do anything unless it involves money. Bill was recently rushed to the mic b/c Hillary’s big-buck donors are holding-out.

LA TIMES REPORTS Her Super-PAC—”Priorities USA”— had a lackluster first quarter, raising just $15 million (a big chunk of it coming from Hollywierdos).

BILL WAS COACHED BY HILLARY'S FUND-RAISERS TO SAY: “She is being attacked by 16 Republican campaigns and super PACs run by the Koch brothers, Karl Rove, et cetera. She needs resources to respond and put out a positive message. The super PAC is critically important at this stage of the campaign.”

Hillary weeped on the shoulder of told MSNBC-TV’s resident adult illiterate---Al "Lollipop Head" Sharpton---that the Benghazi hearing "was always meant to be a partisan political exercise.”

Now McCarthy's bonehead comment has made Hillary's "victimhood" complete.

Hillary Clinton ran her own private spy ring in Libya.

Why?

Hillary Clinton “lost” $6,000,000,000 of hard-earned American taxpayer funds and nobody in the Obama Administration has done one thing to find that money. Six billion dollars. That could buy a lot of Democrat votes.

Where did that money go?

Four Americans were murdered at Benghazi. One of them was a U.S. ambassador who represented every American. It was almost like our enemies were reading Hillary’s e-mails about the Ambassador.

Nope.

This is about criminal actions by Hillary Clinton.

Espionage is not politics.

McCarthy may have been involved in the debacle at Benghazi.

Hillary made sure to involve Democrats and Republicans from our Congress in her actions in Libya. She purposely involved them so they could be blackmailed by her if necessary. You don’t have to commit a crime to be blackmailed. You can be blackmailed just for being stupid.

Was he a Republican leader when Benghazi happened?

I think this is yet another one of Hillary's ‘right wing’ paranoid theory's....saying that the Congress is making this up, type of form....

I'm sure there are people from the Congress and Senate that were well involved in this situation...one being McCain, Harry Reid, Nancy Peloski, and others....

But the only reason McCarthy is mouthing off is to gain votes to take over Boehner’s seat and position....

It is well known that Obuma, Hillary, Holder and their ilk were running guns thru Benghazi to Syria to over throw Assad...this a third grader could figure out, and then when it was accomplished, that is when the Ambassador and 3 others were killed...

Having blood on their hands, they came out with Susan Rice with some story about a video...which we now know was a sad lie...

Hillary wants this to go away, and if she doesn't make it to the Congressional Hearings she'll plead the 5th or she doesn't remember anything, or she didn't know about that...like she always does...

I wonder if the story going around about her having 6 months to live is just to set her up so she's to sick to go to the hearings although right now she's seems perfectly fit to be asked the questions the American people have a right to know...

She's polling even worse than Obama and polling significantly worse than she was in 2008.

I expect her to accuse Republicans of killing puppies and eating babies by tomorrow.

Of course not, but it plays well with her slobbering, idiot followers.

It was a ploy to gain sympathy for her. And it got a lot. It smoked out a lot of Hillary worshipers here on this forum. Although, in my opinion, the world would be a better place without her, and Bill for that matter, in it, Hillary is too evil to die. just go back and review Alamo Girl’s The Downside Legacy to get an idea of the misery and death to others these two caused.

If they have the truth, and irrefutable evidence, who cares about “party”?

Hilary’s trying a “is, is” defense, aka bullshit.
