Gowdy: 'Dichotomy' in What Secy Clinton Said in Private vs. Public on Benghazi
insider.foxnews ^ | Oct 23 2015 | On the Record with Greta Van Susteren

Posted on 10/23/2015 7:54:24 PM PDT by Whenifhow

Rep. Trey Gowdy told "On the Record" that he still doesn't know which aspect of the Benghazi attacks former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is taking responsibility for, after a marathon congressional hearing he led on Thursday.

"The three things we think she ought to take responsibility for she's kind of pushed off onto other people," the South Carolina Republican said. "I'm going to let other people decide whether she was candid or not. She was certainly not cut off and she was certainly given every opportunity to answer the questions."

"I thought the questions were new but the answers were a little old," he added.

Gowdy said there's a "dichotomy" between what Clinton said to people in private versus what she told the public -- specifically, that the American people heard a "spun-up story" about an anti-Islam video that was not mentioned in emails to officials and other individuals.

I heard part of it tonight, and it almost seemed to me like he was indicating that although she is now a proven liar, it’s her underling that worked for her that will be the target for not bringing the emails to her attention supposedly

Probably he is safer in jail because there must be a “fatwa” on his head.

Frankly, Trey Gowdy has proven beyond doubt that Obama’s entire administration lied in the most contemptuous fashion towards the American public for the sole selfish sake of his political career. Obama and Hillary lied with venom. Their utter contempt for the parents of the American heroes who died at Benghazi became apparent when they lied to them over the caskets of their children.

This, along with their stumbling incompetence and cowardly desertion of those Americans in serious danger will forever be etched into the gravestone of history.

Hillary cannot defend it, she is already perceived as a liar, and now Gowdy found the smoking gun and tied it around her neck like a millstone. An email to Chelsea, a telephone call to the Egyptian foreign minister telling the truth while the rest of the world received lies.

Obama’s legacy is tarnished as well.

Gowdy is the Best. I don’t know why some FReepers on this board want to denigrate him and his committee. Gowdy is my hero. My son lives in his state and I keep asking him to look him up, but SC is a very segmented state and my son lives in a district on the other side of the state. My son is in Joe Wilson’s (”you lie) district. Believe it or not, they hear very little about Gowdy there. My son is in a career where he can’t afford to engage in politic, so he can’t get involved statewide and has no reason to meet Gowdy.

‘Tis a shame because HIS son is angling for an appointment to either Annnapolis or the AF Academy. He would do well to volunteer on Gowdy’s campaign team. I guess he’ll have to do with Wilson’s patronage, if he can get it. LOL.

Perhaps a couple of witnesses were absent.

For example, that would be the generals or the admiral who wanted to send help. What government official wanted to send Marines? Who wanted to send air support? And who in the White House, or the State Department, said, “Don’t.”

Who gave the order to stand down?

Ar5e you under the mistaken impression that lying is not a plus with democrap voters? Democrats like being lied to by their little demigods and demigoddesses, especially when the lies are realted to ‘unseating America from number one’. The enemy dwells within the gates ... and is house and fed by the oligarchy who use their votes for empowerment of the anti-American agenda that is the democrap party scheme.

IS OBAMA BLACKMAILING PETRAEUS INTO SILENCE OVER BENGHAZI
*****
Could be - or the fact they took him down for an affair and a problem with classified documents therein forcing him to resign from CIA and therefore excluding him from testifying before congress.

As a private citizen he could use the 5th amendment.

I understand. He is our only hope. Bush is finished. Carson is a sleepy head joke. I have an old dog with more energy than that guy— nice man though. We needs a “killer” in the White house. That IS Trump.

This election is about Independent voters, and they do care about being lied to. Yes - the Dem hordes are all-in for voting themselves the treasury and that could very well lead to the demise of America. Until then, election by election, if the tide is turned, and property rights are saved, the rule of law is upheld, and corruption in government is punished then America can live to fight another day.

The oligarchy now controls this once great Republic. They are not going to allow any real reversals of their powers. You only think we have rule of law. For putrid pondscum like Hillary, it is rule of oligarchy. She will be shunted to the side if she is no longer useful to them and not until. That’s why brain-dead Joe was given the face time to pretend he is bowing out, for now.
