Author Ed Klein: As Benghazi blame nears Hillary, Clintons grow furious
The Daily Caller ^ | 10/12/12 | Alex Pappas

Posted on 10/12/2012 2:10:52 PM PDT by justlittleoleme

In an exclusive interview with The Daily Caller, Klein said sources close to the Clintons tell him that Bill Clinton has assembled an informal legal team to discuss how the Secretary of State should deal with the issue of being blamed for not preventing the Benghazi terrorist attack last month.

White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters during a press conference Friday that responsibility for the consulate in Libya fell on the State Department, not the White House.

If blame for the security failures falls to Hillary Clinton, Klein said, it’s possible that she would even consider resigning over the issue.

“Bill is working on a number of strategies about what Hillary ought to do. He’s even gone so far as to play with various doomsday scenarios including up to the idea that Hillary would consider resigning over the issue if the Obama team tries to use her as a scapegoat,” Klein told TheDC in an interview.

Pass the popcorn!


The Clintons do not take the fall... Others have always taken the fall for them... This is getting interesting.

Yet, at the same time, a bit funny too. Hopefully this will be a disastrous end to both Clinton and Oblamer. The icing on the cake would be Federal Prison for Holder for Fast & Furious.

They aren’t just throwing her under the bus, they’re rolling back and forth over her.

 

I had a hard time imagining Hillary under a bus. Till I saw THIS bus.

Hillary Clinton calls anti-Muslim film, Innocence of Muslims 'disgusting and reprehensible'

I would like to know why Hillbilly so pointedly and repeatedly felt that she needed to state that the U.S. gov had no connection to the "video." Seems odd to me that it needed to be stated at all. (see video from 0:10 - 0:30)

After the Obama/Clinton WAR ON LIBYA, why
was the Ambassador left to be murdered by
Obama/Clinton?

Because it was planned ... in advance.

Then came the coverup.

Because it points back to a decision from the WH, one of which Petraeus provided cover??

She should resign, even if it's only for the last few months. It would be the right thing to do.

No wonder BillyBoy is searching under every stone for a legal way for her to weasel out of it. To the Clintons, "doing the right thing" is for suckers.

This is exactly what I think. But the question is WHY? The simple reason would be that he knew too much. But about what?

This whole thing is strange from the getgo. The film story
was too pat. First whiff of it comes out of Cairo Embassy.
Dems jump on it, filmmaker hauled off in the middle of the
night. Leaks, lies, worldwide demonstrations.

Really, just what is going on here people?

Bill to Hillary's rescue....AGAIN. Just like when she ran for Senate. She can't do it on her own.

The woman likes to pretend that she's capable and wanted to prove that with the SOS job. But now it's being seen again how weak she really is.

This is just too funny.
This has the potential of driving yet another nail in the Obama re election coffin.

I think they did have a connection to the “video.” I think they put it out there.

I would love to see Bubba come out just before the election and endorse Romney (which is who he’s going to vote for anyway). He might get angry enough to do it.
