Benghazi hearings show that Clinton lives in a bubble of deniability
The New York Post ^ | October 25, 2015 | Kyle Smith

In the 2008 campaign, Hillary Clinton asserted that she was the candidate best equipped to take a 3 a.m. phone call. What she didn’t tell us was that her number would be unlisted.

In the bipartisan grandstanding of the latest Benghazi committee hearing last week, the mostly inept Republicans managed to extract one piece of information that will stick: that our murdered Libyan Ambassador Chris Stevens didn’t have Clinton’s e-mail address.

Clinton stammered a bit as she confessed this, realizing that she was contradicting her earlier characterization of Stevens as someone she knew and respected, the personal anecdotes that suggested a close relationship and her statement that she had personally asked him to take the job.

Clinton family retainers like Sidney Blumenthal, a notorious conspiracist who was barred from working in her State Department by the Obama administration, were able to reach her whenever they pleased — but men and women on the front lines of dangerous places had to go through depressing, labyrinthine bureaucratic channels.

How is it that Ambassador Stevens made over 600 requests for beefed-up security and not only did Hillary never get any of them, she was never even told about any of them?

And if, as she claims, she didn't have a computer in her office and didn't do much business by email, then why did she need her own server, let alone two?

What difference does it make? Which republicans will press this until she is behind bars for breaking the law? Or Obama for that matter?

It could contribute to her losing the election, even if she’s not indicted.

I thought it very odd that there has been not one word about this uttered by the gays.

She said Stevens sent ‘cables’. I thought the archaic term ‘cables’ was used in the wikileaks case to described hacked emails.

Hillary claims that she had couriers essentially delivering her ‘non-email’ messages.

And yes, she still has not made the case that she needed to conduct all of her email business on a private server.

She says that she didn’t have a computer on her desk. Cutbacks? Or willful circumvention of records retention laws?

She read her email on portable devices. Those are computers under rule of export, no?

Elijah Cummings made a big stink about ‘the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth”. Hillary told lies, did not tell whole truths (the questioners exposed details that she later fessed up to while initially feigning lack of recall) and Mr. Cummings made attacks on the GOP (budget issues) and other matters not concerned with the ‘truths’ being investigated in the hearing.
