Imagine the absurdity of reporting on supporters of Richard Nixon during the Watergate hearings with no mention of the White House Plumbers who performed the break-in at the complex. Such is the case now with Politico reporting on groups of Hillary Clinton supporters who will be defending her during the Congressional Benghazi hearings which makes absolutely no mention of the Sharyl Attkisson's report about how Hillary's aides at the State Department scrubbed the Benghazi documents of possibly incriminating information.
To get an idea how ridiculous it is for Politico to avoid the Benghazi elephant in the room, let us first look at some of the allegations in Attkisson's report:

Sharyl Attkisson is the only reporter in the United States.
I am amazed that Ms. Attkisson has not been Arkancided yet.
Watch your back ms Attkisson...the long knives are out for you.
Trey Gowdy has a huge responsibility NOT to cower when Elijah Cummings goes on his diversionary rants and hissy fits during the hearing TOMORROW. We need to pray hard that Gowdy is successful in shining light on the crimes committed that night and since then to include the SCRUBBING OF DOCUMENTS PRIOR TO THE ARB REPORT ON BENGHAZI.
Can Hillary be called again to testify? Does anyone here know?
Good article PJ.
Politico is nothing more than Media Matters by another name.
Media Frenzies Over Unsourced Gossip Post to Trash Palin Family
Context is important, so let me open with this: On the very day I'm writing these words, Sharyl Attkisson, an Emmy-winning journalist, has dropped a well-sourced, in-depth report that claims that under Hillary Clinton, State Department officials hid "damaging documents" from the Accountability Review Board -- the official committee charged with looking into the fatal September 11, 2012, attack on our consulate in Benghazi.Thus far, not a single mainstream media source has picked up the story.
Not one.
What Attkisson doesn’t appear to understand is that if you want the national media in DC and New York to create a frenzy around your reporting, that reporting shouldn’t come from an award-winning journalist with decades of experience and well-placed sources. Instead, it should come from a local online gossip columnist with no sources and no interest in tracking down the truth. Of course it also helps if the
reporterthe gossip columnist and elite media share a certain passion in common: a seething contempt and hatred for former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and her family.
.......Ray said something like “isn’t this un-ethical?”
No Ray, it is not just unethical it is illegal. Indeed it is a felony. It’s called “tampering with evidence” and “obstruction of justice”. These people could and should go to prison.
But in 2008 the left spread the fact of Hillary being thrown off the Watergate Committee for lying, by a lifelong Democrat.
HELLry ordered the same illegal felony when Vince Foster was murdered. She had her minions “remove” documents from Foster’s office.
Sandy Burgler did the same for HELLry at the Library of Congress.
I pray I live long enough to see ALL the Clintons get their come uppance!
