Hillary Clinton offers a detailed account of the deadly attack on the American embassy in Benghazi and a pointed rebuttal to Republican critics whove laced into her over the incident in a much-anticipated chapter of her forthcoming book, Hard Choices, obtained by POLITICO.
Those who exploit this tragedy over and over as a political tool minimize the sacrifice of those who served our country, Clinton writes in the gripping chapter, Benghazi: Under Attack.
Casting doubt on the motivations of congressional Republicans who have continued to investigate the attacks, including with an upcoming House select committee, Clinton continues: I will not be a part of a political slugfest on the backs of dead Americans. Its just plain wrong, and its unworthy of our great country. Those who insist on politicizing the tragedy will have to do so without me.
The 34-page chapter is Clintons most complete account to date of the attack and its aftermath. Her tone is less defensive than defiant: Clinton takes responsibility for the horror of the loss of life in Benghazi, but puts it in the context of the heartbreaking human stakes of every decision we make and she accuses adversaries of manipulating a tragedy for partisan gain.
There has been, she writes, a regrettable amount of misinformation, speculation, and flat-out deceit by some in politics and the media, but new information from a number of reputable sources continues to expand our understanding of these events.
The chapter appears intended, in part, to give Democrats a clear framework to respond to Republicans who have raised questions about Clintons role and what the Obama administration has said about the Sept. 11, 2012, killing of four Americans. The section was obtained and reviewed by POLITICO on the eve of a meeting in which members of Democratic-leaning groups will be briefed by Clintons team about how she addresses the attacks in the book.
And in a sign of the concerted effort to rebut the ongoing controversy in a cohesive way, Clintons camp has brought on former National Security Council spokesman and longtime President Barack Obama hand Tommy Vietor to assist in the response to the book, a source familiar with the plan said.

THE “DUDE” RETURNS!
Combining fired Ex-Watergate attorney Mrs. Bill Clinton’s testimony on Benghazi, and Ex-media van driver Tommy V.’s verbal grasp of the past, might look like this;
“Dude, at this point in time, what difference does it make? That was like two years ago!”
If Eliot Rodger was Hillary and had lived, he would have said:
“I am not going to lower myself to politicizing the deaths of these poor students. If someone wants to dishonor the dead with some criminal-justice slugfest, they’ll just have to do it without me.”
I’m going to wait for the steam to stop blowing out of my ears before I comment.
“No Benghazi investigation ever fed a starving child.” < /CLINTONSPEAK >
Dude, that was two weeks ago.
Not going to work Hillary.
We are fighting for the fallen at Benghazi and the survival of our Sacred Republic.
We shall never surrender. We shall subpoena you. If you don't show up, you will be arrested. If you show up and plead the fifth, we shall put it on every campaign ad along with your "What difference does it make?" video statement.
Hillary, you don't get it. 200 million Americans do Not want another Fabian Socialist as President of these United States. We will fight tooth and nail. We shall never surrender. We are at War for the survival of our America.
Hillary? “I cannot recall”

“What was it she couldn’t recall? Was it about Mrs. Clinton’s role in the travel office firings? The FBI files? The documents removed from Vince Foster’s office? The vanishing Rose Law Firm billing records?”
—
Now she cannot recall Benghazi? hee hee hee
Propagandico strikes again.
fl
Why did Hillary and Obama use American taxpayer provided personnel, equipment, funds and facilities to overthrow the government of Libya? The Democrats are supposed to hate that kind of thing. Why did they do it?
Moneymoneymoneymoneymoney
Isn’t that pink thing she is wearing a Mao Jacket?
I don’t know. What I noticed was that she has her glass covered because Obama draws flies. ;-)
She admits that Benghazi was one of the worst episodes of her career and says she takes responsibility but then says it’s all her critics fault.
Her book.doesn’t come out for a month. This is the first of many trial balloons before that time.
From the article: "Hillary and Obama have both learned the Alinsky lesson that your should aggressively pursue power while pretending to be motivated by altruism, he added."
More importantly, Hillary and Obama both adopted Alinskys strategic counsel to sound mainstream, even when you arent, wrote DSouza. These are the ways in which our two Alinskyites make themselves palatable to the American middle class, which to this day has no idea how hostile Hillary and Obama are to middle-class values."
If Hillary Clinton is elected in 2016, the baton will have passed from one Alinskyite to another. In this case, Alinskys influence will have taken on a massive, almost unimaginable, importance. Obama will have had eight years to remake America, and Hillary will have another four or perhaps eight to complete the job,
I've always had this fear that if Hillary were President, she will get us into WWIII just to show us how 'tough' she is. . . "I'm a woman, but I can fight better than you men. No one's gonna' push me around."
So, it's destruction of America by socialism/communism and/or maybe WWIII.
May God help us all. Pray for America, and prepare.
