A day after new records were made public showing Hillary Clinton said from the start the 2012 Benghazi attack was not linked to an obscure anti-Islam film, the father of a former Navy SEAL killed that night told Fox News she blamed the filmmaker for his son's death in a conversation with him.
Charles Woods, father of Ty Woods, who died defending the CIA annex, shared with Fox News the diary notes he took after his encounter with Clinton during the ceremony on Sept. 14, 2012, when the bodies were flown back to the U.S.
"I gave Hillary a hug and shook her hand. And she said we are going to have the film maker arrested who was responsible for the death of my son," the entry says.
"She said -- the filmmaker who was responsible for the death of your son," Woods emphasized as he read his diary entry. Woods attended Thursday's hearing where the former secretary of state testified to the Benghazi congressional committee.
"She wasn't saying the failed foreign policy that I was responsible for. It wasn't her taking the blame for it. It says we are going to place the responsibility on the death of your son on the filmmaker," he said.
Woods' account of what Clinton told him contradicts what then-Secretary Clinton reported to her own family, as well as senior Libyan and Egyptian government officials.
Citing an email Clinton sent to her daughter Chelsea the night of the attack, Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said at Thursday's hearing that she told them, "Two officers were killed today in Benghazi by an Al Qaeda-like group.''

Good for you, FRiend. You did the right thing.
Leftists have only one agenda and it doesn’t include supporting the military or sympathy for those who’ve given all for us and the country.
And the worst of it all is all those lies preserved 0bama’s re-election.
One day the democrat party, its politicians, its participants, the go-along-to-get along republicans, and their adoring enemedia is going to have to answer for all those lies and corruption. The left in this country is beyond out of control.
I don’t believe in wars but their have been just wars in the past. A just civil war would be one thing that would bring these people to justice and restore our government more in line with our Constitution. I can only hope and pray that we can achieve this with an Art. V Convention before it got to that point.

We need a full update on the fate of this film maker who had to take the brunt. Hillary can lie so easily. She has no shame. She has no integrity.
I can only hope and pray that we can achieve this with an Art. V Convention before it got to that point.
Time to smell the coffee. The time has past.
We are ruled by an elitest party (uni-party) who will never vote to give up power over the peasants. Only one way for us now and it is enshrined in the Constitution.
Probably in lack of a wife’s comforting hug!!!
Probably in lack of a wife’s warm comforting hug!!!
To me, the smoking gun is Hillary’s email to Chelsea, 45 minutes after the assault, that we already had two confirmed dead in an attack on Benghazi by an Al Qaeda affiliate. Then the next morning she told the Egyptian President “We KNOW it was an Al Qaeda attack, and NOT part of a protest, nor inspired by a video.” Two days after that, she was lying about it to the grieving families, as the 4 caskets were unloaded at the Air Force base in Delaware, that “We will GET that video maker!” as also did Obama and the other officials there. Then, 3 days after THAT, Susan Rice went on FIVE Sunday morning TV shows and blamed the video, trying to frame that poor producer. Hillary should have been arrested ON THE SPOT yesterday.
In my opinion, we DO owe the immigrant filmmaker restitution for his time in prison, his legal fees, his lost earnings, etc. If America as a whole is at fault for this error, then the American taxpayers should pay it. But, if it is established that the top officials came up with the story framing him so as to preserve Obama’s re-election chances, then of course the Democratic Party should compensate him. I have never been in jail, but from what I have seen and heard of them, I would think reparations of $1,000,000 per month would certainly be reasonable. Some might say per week.
The simple historical point is the filmmaker had NOTHING to do with Benghazi. He was FRAMED by the Obama Administration. Now, although not directly relevant, as far as I have heard, the scenes of the film “Innocence of Muslims” accurately portray the history of Islam. The CIA’s report was heavily REDACTED and otherwise altered at the White house, as you know, before Susan Rice got the “talking points”.
I would have hugged her around her throat with both hands.
IMPEACH OBIE NOW!!!
I was following the Libya revolt fairly closely. The information that made sense to me was that a high up Al Qaeda official, can’t remember his name urged this attach as revenge for US killing of Al Libi a key leader there. The video was widely played that week and there were demonstrations in a number of other countries. I seem to recall that something like 20 US embassies were under threat that 9/11 day. The attack group apparently had 30 or 40 people. I am a little surprised that the CIA had no awareness of this, since my impression was we were fairly well liked in Benghazi. There were large pro US demonstrations after the killings.
Meanwhile, here is another reason why McCarthy was probably not the best choice for Speaker.

I knew Hillary and Barack and Co. were lying about the video from the beginning. I knew they were trying to cover up a failure in security. It is hard to believe that Mr. Woods believed Hillary. And what ever happened to the video guy?
