...salvage Hillary’s reputation for future political consideration.

Hillary has no future in politics. She's the old grey mare of the party, and will be let out to pasture come January 2013. She'll be happy to be there, too.

You greatly overestimate the mental abilities of the average democrat voter.

This is the same thing that is happening in Afghanistan and Iran. Abandonment at the worst possible time.

I wonder if Ambassador Stevens would still be alive today had this not been done

Hillary was thought to have the chutzpah for tangling and entangling our military, with her vote for Iraq, so they left her alone within reason to show it, leaving the limp wristed prez free to ingratiate himself to our foreign and domestic enemies.

Until the Left are certain that Hillary will never run again, the media will deflect all scrutiny of her and see to it that she escapes without meaningful criticism, into a celebrity departure and into retirement.

The Republican Establishment follow along with no curiosity, in their own move to the left, needing Hillary voters and the disenchanted Obama voters.

Issa will get disowned before this ends and Romney is simply far too polite to persue what is clear scandal and perhaps dereliction of duty, compromising the single most important mission of the US State Department.

I think you're overestimating their affinity for Hillary. I assure you, she's not.

RitaOK ~ “ The Republican Establishment follow along with no curiosity, in their own move to the left, needing Hillary voters and the disenchanted Obama voters. “

I am concerned that you are right about a move to the left.
It will be all about pulling the country closer , and eliminate divisiveness ; isn’t that how we got RHinos in the first place ??

RitaOK ~ “ Issa will get disowned before this ends and Romney is simply far too polite to persue what is clear scandal and perhaps dereliction of duty, compromising the single most important mission of the US State Department.”

Issa has fought the slow , deliberate , tedious, and legally precise investigation , despite all the ‘stonewalling’ in ‘Fast & Furious’. I can only hope that this investigation into Libyian embassey fiasco should be completed sooner than that of “Fast and Furious” .

Romney ~ too polite ? Maybe so
But I do believe that there should be prosecution in the Libyia situation as it demonstrates total incompetance and dereliction of duty , and fundamental stupidity .
Prosecution ~ not just leaving office !!

Also , I just recieved word (email) that the Libyian Prime Minister is being forced to step down as he wasn’t able to draw a suitable coalition within 45 days. Now there is a renewed ‘power-struggle’ in the absence of Gadaffi ; another “Arab Spring” in the making for Libyia ?

Never said they had affinity for Hillary, and I assure you the stage was being set for Hillary to run against Romney in 2016.

The stage was being set when? Certainly not after Obama was elected. Hillary's last chance was 2008. That was her high water mark, and everyone except paranoid Freepers knows it.

The Dems need to begin grooming someone new for 2016, right now. What bench they do have, is inexperienced, past their prime, underdeveloped, unknown, little known, over-the-hill, or failures of one kind or another.

Hillary's high water mark as you say, was 2004.

The Clinton's had what was called a 20 year plan.

B Clinton would serve 8 years, 4 years for another president, then Hillary would serve 8 years.

That meant the Clinton's not only had to come up with a plan to make sure Gore didn't get elected, but come up with a plan to bring down a sitting president.

First the Clinton's set up the claim Bush stole the election, then following 9/11 Hillary started the BS “Bush Knew”.

Charles Baron derailed Hillary's dirty tricks campaign in August of 02 when he popped his mouth off and let it be known race riots were being planned. Hillary then went into plan B. The video of Nick Berg was supposed to bump Kerry out by making it appear as if he and his supporters were collaborating with the terrorist in Iraq.

N Berg wasn't supposed to be killed.

Charles Baron once again popped his mouth off after Berg was killed and tied Hillary to the video by letting it be known the plan was to use Abu Graub (sp?) to gin up civil unrest in this country, so she dropped her plan to get into the WH in 04.

Hillary then kicked off her dirty tricks campaign for the 08 election in November of 2006.

Again it was a plan to orchestrate race riots.

That dirty trick campaign got derailed by the VT shooting bumping it from the news and it never regained it's momentum.

Hillary again went into a plan B which was Obama. Obama would be taken right to the very edge then declared ineligible to be president. Race riots, and Hillary was supposed to take his place. That plan was derailed when Fitz jumped on Blago and again Hillary's plan was bumped from the news.

Clinton's 92 election -race riots.

Clinton's 96 election-Chinese were shipping full auto weapons to the gangs in LA- race riots were planned

Clinton's impeachment 1999- race riots were planned

2000- Bush stole the election- attempted race riots

2002-race riots were planned

2004- attempted to gin up civil unrest

2006- Hispanics were marching through the streets fueled by Hillary

2007- race riots were planned

2008- race riots were planned

That's a pattern and it's created by the Clinton's.

The exact same pattern is being developed again.

Hillary was planning on running in 2016.

Perhaps.

Thanks for the timeline of events, but bottom line; everything about the Clintons is in the past tense. They had their day in the sun. Nothing but retirement follows.
