Dems' Benghazi Hearing Mission: Help Hillary For 2016
Investor's Business Daily ^ | May 7, 2013 | IBD EDITORIALS

Posted on 05/07/2013 5:20:58 PM PDT by raptor22

Benghazi: Congressional Democrats will go all-out to protect their likely 2016 presidential nominee. They won't ask why a 10-man SWAT team was sent to arrest a filmmaker while pleas for help in Benghazi were ignored.

On Sept. 14, 2012, three days after the terrorist attack on our diplomatic mission in Benghazi that claimed their lives, the bodies of Ambassador Christopher Stevens, Sean Smith, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods were returned to America in a "transfer of remains" ceremony at Andrews Air Force Base, Md.

Charles Woods, Tyrone's father, recalls that as the bodies of the four Americans arrived at Andrews, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told him "that first of all she was sorry and then she said, 'We will make sure the person who made that film is arrested and prosecuted.'"

Thanks to the available testimony of Benghazi whistle-blowers and to a new timeline of events before, during and after the terrorist attack, the last vestige of plausible deniability has been stripped from a secretary of state who, at best, is woefully incompetent to hold any public office and criminally negligent at worst.

She will be helped by Republicans who pontificate, bloviate, and generally muff the questioning and allow it to turn into political theater, wherein Hillary will be nominated for Best Actress.

Since it is an “old” story, that was never really covered when it happened, it will be framed as a political attack if it gets any MSM coverage.

I heard today that the media has had over 2,000 stories about the gay basketball player and just over 100 on Gosnell.

It is insane.

Forget Hillary.

Focus on Obama.

Don't let them whitewash this. Shut down the lines and let them know we are watching this VERY closely.

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

Hi, Mesta. I just realized that with all the effort and dedication you’ve put into maintaining this very busy ping list for so long, even during your serious health crisis, you really should be the FReeper who starts the official LIVE thread in breaking news tomorrow morning. According to another post, the hearings will be televised on C-SPAN 3 from 10:30AM - 5PM Central Time.

Hope to see your screen name starting that thread tomorrow. In true FReeper fashion, someone will surely try to jump in and “be first” by starting it an hour or so before broadcast time. But, in my opinion, it would just be wrong for it not to be you.

My two cents.

Thanks, but it doesn’t matter who starts it as long as someone does. Don’t wait around for me. I’ll be there regardless...trying to keep up, as usual. LOL

It seems as if the Clintons and Obama have caused a great many number of unnecessary deaths.

I’d like to see them both in jail (Hillary and Zippy). They both are guilty of more crimes than most of us can imagine. Lying under oath, fraud, tampering with elections, dereliction of duty, negligent homicide. And quite possibly premeditated murder (Vince Foster, drone strikes, and more).

The leftists love to talk about justice, but there is no justice for the victims of Hillary and Zippy.

I actually have some understanding for that phenomenon - at least partially. I’ve had to fire several people during my career. It is VERY painful, even when the person is incompetent or a complete jerk. It’s very easy when you aren’t the person responsible for firing to sit back and say “so-and-so ought to be fired” but when it’s actually in your hands, it’s much harder. And the better you know the person, the harder it is.

The people in charge of “firing” Hillary know her well. So it is difficult for them.

In addition, I’m sure that most of her political colleagues have their own guilty secrets. They don’t have to be as huge as Hillary’s, but it’s enough to give them pause.

That's a real possibility and talk of impeachment (at this point) actually strengthens that perception.
