Krauthammer Tells Fox Benghazi Is ‘Done’: ‘The Administration Has Won’
Mediaite ^ | 4/10/14 | Evan McMurry

Posted on 04/10/2014 10:23:46 AM PDT by Nachum

Conservative commentator Charles Krauthammer told Special Report with Bret Baier Wednesday night that the window had passed on prosecuting the Obama administration Benghazi, and that the GOP’s disorganzed approach to congressional hearings had let Benghazi as an issue “slip away.”

“Politically speaking the administration has won,” Krauthammer said. “They ran out the clock. If we had had a select committee from the beginning, really had coherent hearings — unlike what we’ve had, which were disjointed hearings, that let all things sort of slip away —we really would have been somewhere. We would have gotten to the bottom of this. But as a political fact, this thing is done.”

“I’m as outraged as everybody about this,” Krauthammer continued. “I just think that as a political issue the country is now tired of it, and to rev it up with a special committee is not going to work. I wish it had happened, and I do think the Republicans in the hearings that they had, which were completely disorganized, let this thing slip away. Sometimes you blow it.”

This is a very simple concept

The M B killed pur on station diomats, in country and we not only allowed it, and allowed it to go unanswered, we apologized for it.

Everyone in the world paying attention to it knows that, including Russia, Europe, china, and the Arab world

So. No it is not pver,

I refuse to believe it's done. I want to hear all the lies told to the different groups. I'm sure the military wasn't fed the ‘protest’ bullshit. And I doubt Romney was fed that one either. Maybe a tailor made lie for every group? One that would appeal to their ‘sensitivity’ or fat ego?

Who knows, maybe a tailor made lie was given to Krauthammer - one based upon is concept of honor - that would shut him up. It must have been something a humdinger - Krauthammer's a good man with massive insight into human flaws... it would take a lot to throw him off the trail.

... If we had had a select committee from the beginning ...

Boehner is pathetic. Possibly in cahoots with the White Hut.

I wonder if this is a little goading and rope a dope towards Boner by Krauthammer?

Make him feel like he blew it and looks like a dunce to light his pants on fire a bit. I don’t know. Maybe.

Agreed. The price to be paid was due the 2012 elections. As Charles said, ‘The administration won by running out the clock.’
Any blame after that looks like sour grapes. The Dumb Masses in this country believe what they are told.

———Lerner is bigger than Benghazi?-——

Yes, of course.

The crimes against Lois Lerner are crimes against the very fabric of the Republic. She used the government like a club to beat opposition into submission. She is of course Obama. She should be executed for her crimes. Him too if it can be proven.

Were we not a wishy washy, namby pamby country there would be no hesitation about the good guys calling for the death penalty for such crimes. Political crooectness should nod include calling for the death penalty for crimes against the Republic

Bengazi, on the other hand involves administrative secrets and lies. Those are far less consequential and may not even be crimes.

Step back, take a deep breath and grasp the significance of her actions. She overturned the rule of law and sought to throw a presidential election. Bengazi is small potatoes compared to such treacherous tyranny

He’s right. Obastard and Clinton have gotten away with murder. Again.

Yep. It is what it is.

Benghazi isn’t small potatoes, it simply demonstrates the impunity of Democratic government officials, and thus is connected to the IRS crimes.

Nobody is ever held responsible for anything in this administration, mainly because the goals of the Obama administration are to destroy the US, and Obama is protecting all the minions who are carrying out this mission.

That would include Hillary, the absentee SOS who made us look like a laughingstock; Kerry, the current SOS, who was made us look below laughingstock; and all the agency heads, whose commission is obviously very simple: Protect Obama and his project to destroy the US.

Since they like their jobs, they’ll stick with Obama.
