Hillary Clinton: I'm the Real Victim of Benghazi
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | May 30, 2014 | Ben Shapiro

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

Hillary Clinton may not be much at administering the State Department, but she’s certainly a pro when it comes to expressing outrage at her own persecution. For the woman who is supposedly the world’s most powerful feminist, her sense of victimhood remains surprisingly strong. That’s never been more true than in her new book, Hard Choices, which points out that she – not the four men who died in Benghazi, Libya, on the night of September 11, 2012 – is the victim.

The Clinton camp reportedly leaked the 34-page Benghazi chapter of Hillary’s latest tome to favored outlet Politico. The portions quoted by Politico demonstrate an offputting self-pity and a false righteous indignation utterly at odds with Clinton’s actions as Secretary of State.

According to Politico, Clinton writes, “Those who exploit this tragedy over and over as a political tool minimize the sacrifice of those who served our country.” Of course, the sacrifice of those who served our country wouldn’t have been necessary if Clinton had done her basic duty in protecting diplomatic facilities overseas. And when it comes to politicizing Benghazi, it was the Obama administration that repeatedly lied for weeks to the American people about the source of the attacks to continue portraying President Obama as tough on terror during election season.

Hillary goes on to attack anyone who asks questions about her behavior during Benghazi, writing, “I will not be a part of a political slugfest on the backs of dead Americans. It’s just plain wrong, and it’s unworthy of our great country. Those who insist on politicizing the tragedy will have to do so without me.”(continued)

The candidate who runs against her better take the “Mittens” off and come out slugging from the start.
No mercy.
Let the media gasp at the disrespect.

Because she doesn’t have the moral courage it takes to be a real leader and definitely not the Commander in Chief.

Since I have accepted we have a congress unwilling to do their job in holding this POS accountable, and since I accepted that not enough of us actually GAF about the people we elect to elect any with principle, I have made a game of this.

Every morning I look for something more asinine, repulsive and Alice in Wonderland crazy coming out of DC than the day before. And Eevery single day I find something. And so goes my personal Bread and circuses.

I mean why the hell not? A huge chunk of my supposed brethren on the right want to elect more Romneys just so they can say they beat the dems...the very same people refusing to hold this bitch to her actions. I might as well enjoy the ride into collapse as best I can.

Heard at a game: "Anyone going on the field will be persecuted..." That got some laughs.

Sorry Hill, you are not the victim here—You are still alive.
What about the “Friend” you had who died in the attack? What about his call for more guards—the call you didn’t answer? You lack of passion shows your true nature—its all about you. If you get the White House you will be Obama’s Third Term.

Published November 02, 2012

National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor told Fox News, “the most senior people in government worked on this issue from the minute it happened. That includes the Secretary of Defense, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Secretary of State, National Security advisor, etcetera. Additionally, the Deputies Committee — the second in command at the relevant national security agencies — met at least once and more often twice a day to manage the issue.”

November 2, 2012

Now it appears that the State Department, at least, had three hours’ notice of radical Islamist activity in the city “gathering weapons and gathering steam,” plus a very big warning about consulate security being compromised.

If she did get elected, it would be a continuation of lies and failure to take responsibility.

Hillary is noted for telling numerous whoppers since 1992. She is not above dancing around the truth. She is not above outright lying.

Regarding failure to take responsibility, would she blame her predecessor or his for everything? Are we ready for another administration that blames everyone else, except themselves?

A preview of a Hillary Clinton administration would be re-watching Hillary at the Benghazi hearing and her ‘what difference does it make?’

Her book tour isn’t having big success. Even one of her recent speeches had to discount ticket prices.

==

I still believe [hope] that there is a sizeable faction in the Dem Party that will do everything they can to keep her from the Oval Office. The problem with that is: that is how we got Obama. That faction could nominate someone even worse.

Then, across the aisle the elites will likely nominate jBush or Christie or a similar lackluster person and lose another presidential election.
