State Can’t Verify Clinton Email Claim Made At Benghazi Hearing
Wall Street Journal Washington Wire ^ | Oct 23, 2015 | Byron Tau

Posted on 10/24/2015 12:46:59 PM PDT by LeoWindhorse

The State Department said it can’t confirm one of the assertions Hillary Clinton made at Thursday’s House Benghazi Committee hearing from her tenure as Secretary of State.

One of the sticking points in Mrs. Clinton’s testimony in front of the Benghazi panel was her claim that 90% to 95% of her work emails were automatically preserved in the State Department’s system. Late in Mrs. Clinton’s marathon, 11-hour long appearance on Capitol Hill, she told the panel’s Republican chairman that “90 to 95% of my work related emails were in the State’s system, if they wanted to see them, they would certainly have been able to do so.”

But State Department spokesman Mark Toner on Friday said the figure is something her campaign is using and referred questions to them for “the rationale or the background behind it.”

And the MSM runs with her lies and states: “See, we told you so.”

Shocked, shocked I am. Shocked I tell you. I would have never believed she might have stretched the truth.

Just last week she claimed that she did not use a government computer while Sec of State. I would calle her a lying bitch but that would demean dogs.

She is still saying that. But she’s saying that all work related emails she sent were sent to someone using a .gov account. We already know that that is a lie too.

100% of the emails are the property of the US government. Is she admitting to destroying government documents?

The FACT SHEET supplied by Hillary Rotten Clinton’s office is a howl. They performed keyword searches:

“Lastly, a number of terms were specifically searched for, including: ‘Benghazi’ and ‘Libya.’ These additional three steps yielded just over another 2,900 emails”

AS IF they referred to POTUS as Obama or Barack instead of “THAT A$$HOLE” ??? So, they wouldn’t have shorthand or aliases for operations - gimme a break!!!

Irrelevant. Suppose the claim were proven true. Would that mean that she was not committing serial felonies by using her own private server to handle classified information?

NO, of course not. This is just a smoke screen. Ignore it.

“There are more than 30 lawsuits pending against the State Department related to Mrs. Clinton’s records”

I guess they are sick and tired of the run around!

“Got that? In fact, Teneo is rather shadowy, with only a few known corporate clients. It is best known for its relationy with the Clintons and the Clinton Foundation. Journalists so far have seemed unwilling or unable to penetrate much further into Teneo. But that appears to have changed with Mrs. Clinton’s formal entry into the presidential race and the dawning realization among media types that the Clinton Foundation, Teneo and the disappearing State Dept. emails really do signal that some sort of gigantic sleazy game is afoot.”

Hillary sends Chris Stevens to one of the most dangerous places on earth, Tripoli then Benghazi and never personally spoke or exchanged emails with him one time.

Testified he knew to call the "security experts" should he really, really need more protection.

...not her responsibility.

Oh my .. how did that happen ..??

Are we now ready to throw her overboard ..??

Joe had his speech ready .. but for some reason he backed out .. was it because Obama forced him .. because they were afraid that if Joe got in .. Hillary would freak out and spill all the beans ..??

It does not matter whether or not Mrs. Clinton was telling the truth about the emails. She just wanted to muddy the water and get it behind her.

What happened to the security breaches?

What happened to the question of who ordered the stand down? Someone in the State Department or White House ordered our ready military to stand down and watch their colleagues die.

Mrs. Clinton will now walk away will she not?

the feckless and rules tied Congress , along with the Obama politically dominated DoJ and FBI will likely DO NOTHING .
( see the outcome of the Louis Learner matter)
However , as Rep. Allen West once said at a rally : “ We are going to take those Alinsky rules for radicals and turn them back on them and drive them through them “

Donald Trump has shown that out of the box things can happen . Notice how folks attending big Trump rallies and no longer meekly tolerating ‘radicals ‘ attempts to invade and disrupt Trump rallies . They are basically dragged out of the hall and shown the door .

As things progress in this campaign season , I would like to see Hillary rallies also invaded by masses of Conservative right wing patriot activists , who disrupt her , with bullhorns , and point out how she lied about Benghazi , etc , etc ,etc . Wouldn’t that be rich?

A non candidate core of Conserv-activists need to organize; a tea Party with teeth . To take those radicals rules and drive it right back thru them with a vengeance . It’s our only option . Like for like ....

git er done !

Nobody cares what is discovered from these hearings. All they care about is politics. We have already lost. Our whole country is spiraling down the tubes. I tell all my friends over the age of 50 to please write your stories down so your children and their children’s children will know that at one time men were free in this Country.
