It’s important to understand that the claim that the hearing is what unmasked Clinton’s “lie†is crucial to the story Rubio is trying to tell, a tale told to the GOP base that Brian Beutler exposes in more detail. The narrative that the media deliberately obscured this on Clinton’s behalf helps discredit media scrutiny of Rubio’s own distortions, and that scrutiny will in turn likely be converted into evidence that Rubio poses a dire threat to Clinton — the liberal media perceives this threat, and thus wants to tear him down. But the highest-profile foundational claim Rubio has thus far offered to support this narrative structure just doesn’t hold up.
Thus, Kessler concludes, Clinton never explicitly and publicly blamed the attacks on the video, and the fact that she privately blamed terrorism is not evidence of a deliberate effort to mislead. Nothing presented at the Benghazi hearing changes this.

And the cattle futures were NOT a bribe, just talent on Hillary’s part. So saith the Compost.
She is shown blaming the video!!! WTF is he not understanding here?
Gary really needs to try to get out more. Maybe interact with people and stuff like that. The boy is in a bubble.
Never let the truth get in the way of the agenda.
It depends on what the meaning of “lie” is.
Weaseling is an art
So who are you going to believe? Me? Or your lying eyes?
Didn’t Obama and Clinton do a joint video that was played in the Middle East specifically discussing the video. Wtf.
“Well, if the Washington Post says that Hillary is completely honest, that’s good enough for me!”
Who does the public believe - the Washington Post, or their lying eyes (those who actually read, anyway).
Riiiiight. The victims families, standing near their loved ones caskets, have every reason to lie about what Herself said to them.
The WP is absolute trash.
Still waiting for the WP to debunk Harry Reid’s claim that Mitt Romney paid no taxes for 10 years.
Coming from a newspaper who proudly had the lying, incompetent skunk and scumbo Robert McNamara on its board of directors! Greg Sargent is angling to become the moderator of the next debate; he saw what a good job John Harwood did in lying and being obnoxious that he thinks he is equally qualified. So, in the interests of fairness and to give the Democrats a voice during the debate, I expect Rinse Flybus to announce Greg Sargent will be chairing the next debate at the Post headquarters..
Hillary wasn’t even Secretary of State when Benghazi happened. /s
The lying murdering b*tch told the families of the victims TO THEIR FACE as they stood next to their dead loved ones coffins that a VIDEO caused their deaths..that makes her not only a liar but a DESPICABLE LIAR..but of course leftists will always come to this sleaze bags defense
Yep, a stinking pile of distortions, rationalizations, excuses and whitewash that demonstrate yet again how this “news†paper has earned the sobriquet “The Washington Compostâ€.
From the article:
“he does not have enough evidence to label Clinton a liar.”
Reminds me of:
“These aren’t the Droids you are looking for.”
They never saw a ComDem lie that they did not support.
