Dianne Feinstein Says Benghazi Hearing Was Really About Discrediting Hillary Clinton
The Blaze ^ | 05-12-2013 | Madeleine Morgenstern

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) said Sunday that the latest congressional hearing on Benghazi was really a way for Republicans to discredit former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

The Hearings may indeed discredit Hillary, but that is not their purpose. Three questions need to be asked and answered before this story goes away.

1) Why was the consulate not better protected (may be a reasonable answer in the end...or not. This crap going around about inadequate funding is a joke.)?

2)Why didn’t the President send help when the poop started hitting in Benghazi? (I’m sure this will be passed off as ‘it was too dangerous’ but, my opinion is Obama left them flapping in the wind so his reelection bid would not be damaged—I doubt this is provable, unfortunately).

3) Why were we lied to following the attack as it relates to a silly video? (My guess is this is the only question that will actually nail the administration. It won’t bring it down, but it will definitely do damage).

Madame Feinstein needs to retire to CA and stay among like-minded people, instead of trying to foist her bizarre beliefs upon the rest of us.

You must mean for her to retire to San Francisco where her "like minded people" reside. There are plenty of us in CA who'd love to see this harridan out of politics forever -- unfortunately not enough of us to overcome her big-city voting base.

The Sisterhood is rallying around Hillary, its goddess. We've already been lectured to lay off Hillary by San Francisco feminist icon "Popeye" Pelosi. If the noose really starts to tighten around Hillary's neck we can expect a thermonuclear-level radical feminist outburst.

Diane, the entire us federal government and us media has not only discredited itself, but they have also dishonored and disgraced themselves and America.

Furthermore, I do not care to hear anything more from you, you smug, arrogant, obnoxious, corrupt, ugly little troll.

I would like to see Diane introduce a bill to limit senators to only one term.

Poor dumb DiFi.

It’s really about Obama throwing Hillary under the bus.

Had she done a decent job, it would not be possible to discredit her.

Dear Ms Feinstein:

The point is to discredit those responsible for the egregious event in Benghazi. The captain of that ship happens to be Ms. Clinton. The admiral of that fleet is BO.

You libs are all about assigning blame and responsibility for every untoward event in life (think malpractice, personal injury, tort law in general), no matter how far fetched.

That is unless you happen to be explicitly in charge of the reigns of power. Then, you bear no responsibility for anything at all.

Cake and eat it, anyone?

hillary clinton discredited herself. All we have done is acknowledge it since the Nixon impeachment attempt.

Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.

Those hearings are about the truth. The truth always exposes and discredits a liar.

Hillary did that all by herself.

But it's racist to point it out.

So, what is the problem with that?

The time is long past to rid this country of the curse of the clintoons. If this does it, bring it on!

The White House is blaming Hillary and the CIA, but this is a non-sequitor. The White House ‘is’ the State Department and the CIA.

Blaming Hillary for the Benghazi screw-up is like an NFL QB blaming his arm for throwing an interception. Whatever Hillary did, she certainly did it Obama’s direction...same goes for the CIA. Obama is the Boss!! If one goes down politically, they both go down politically.

I bet when Obama putt Hillary in the Benghazi vice Hillary dropped a lot of ‘F’ bombs, but in the end she was a good soldier....not wanting to ruin Obama’s re-election bid. Still, I bet she is seething knowing the damage this will do to her reputation.....all for a President she obviously despises.

It’s a tangled web!!!!
