Hillary is the establishment backup if Trump gets nomination..marching orders from GOPe.

[kabar]

I agree with Culp, on CNN, we are not getting to the point of security measures that were lame, repeatedly requested by Chris, and were denied, apparently on many more than one occasions.

Are you watching the same hearings I am? Security has been a core issue.

One of Hillary's slaves, she has many that can't get off the reservation because they know what happens to people who cross the Clintons. They get destroyed.

It's like a spider web, once you are in their grasp you never get out!

Exclusive- Raw Video of US Ambassador Chris Stevens body Dragged In Benghazi Libya - GRAPHIC

“She is definitely getting fed her words from someone over a wireless device. I would stake my life on it, in fact.”

If so, then I supposed one way to prove it would be to turn on a scrambling device. If you see her jump in her seat when it’s turned on, then you’d know.

If she is using a hearing device for the hearing, then I’m sure she also used one in the debate.

Not eviscerating her. Some good points made by the Republicans but no knock out blows. Hillary hasn't blown up. . has done okay responses. . Except saying one thing to family and hawking the video to America. . That will be the take away. No big change. . On to the Nomination. . so far. Not over yet, on break now.

Was hoping Trey Gowdy would have more zingers, maybe he will next shift. Dems on the committee just covering for her, puff ball questions, obviously all scripted and memorized. She seemed to be reading a lot of her answers. One blow up by Cummings, that will be what the MSM will cover and say Hillary did okay. . Only problem is Dems take up half the time.

Still hanging, as Greta just said is Why the Video? Still not answered. It's still the Big Lie - to America and to the Family Members in front of the Caskets.

Kabar has been watching too much fubar on Cspan. I feel your pain.

[RitaOK]

Gowdy missed the boat by not swearing Hillary in before the cameras, in order to bend over for her and appear to make this hearing apolitical!

Balderdash! As Dana Bash said, on CNN, the swearing in of a high profile witness always makes an indelible impression on the part of the public that something happening is serious. This hearing would have had more of that “serious” bearing, but the pubbies opted for throwing that opportunity away, again, in deference to Hillary Clinton.

[Boardwalk]

Jordan did pretty damn well!

I’m looking ...

*******************************

Now THAT would be entertainment!!! I wonder how “prepared” she would seem without it ... how tongue-tied & flustered she’d get. I’m sure she’d ask for an immediate bathroom break & stampede out of there with entourage in tow.

[Prolixus]

Why the Video? is Hillary's Sword of Damocles.

[Marcella]

“What I cannot understand is, why does the Republican leadership allow senators/congressmen their 15 minutes of fame, when there is a HUGE difference in a trained, skillful prosecutor and average congresscritter? Failure of republican leadership to be effective?”

A hearing requires each member of the committee gets “X” time to question a witness. Gowdy can’t take it over and do all the questioning himself.

[ScaniaBoy]

Could someone clarify this issue.

We learned today that Ambassador Stevens did not have SoS Clinton’s private e-mail address. I assume that most ambassadors would have known her official address. Was her official e-mail address (and I suppose she had one) directly linked to her private address? Or did everything sent to her official address have to be forwarded (by someone) to her private mail?

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Haven’t seen Shep in a long time.

I choose to never see Schlepper again. If I do, it's an accident. If he comes on the radio...I shut it off.

[kabar]

Still hanging, as Greta just said is Why the Video?

Greta must have missed the Jim Jordan questioning.

[RitaOK]

There are only three competents on that committee. The rest are incompetent.

Three out of fifteen is not a good sign. We would have been better off for only the three who are informed and invested in this investigation to have asked all the questions.
