The moment Hillary took the blame, I figured amemo/email/something would be leaked be an “anonymous source” to prove the admin was specifically told early on. It’s just too perfect. Hillary takes him down and looks like the one who “took the blame” when it wasn’t her fault.

All well and good, but the REAL story is the “movie lie” that Obama and all of his minions right down to Tim Carney tried to sell us. It was a bare-faced lie, and coverup.
She didn't limit it to one incident or one failure. She went out there and told everyone what her job description was -- and more importantly, what his was NOT.
She also went to Peru, which effectively forces the White House to answer the questions. Well played.
I said about a month ago that the best way for the Clintons to sabotage Obama (and to try to take the party back for themselves) would be for Hillary to find an excuse to resign right before the election. Like like The Won has given her that opportunity wrapped up with a nice bow...
This does make Hillary look like the grown-up in all this, and makes Obama the goat.
I thought the same thing last night when I read this announcement. The timing of this is not about Hillary taking the blame and being thrown under the bus it is about Hillary outing the intel that is an open secret. Intel that there are listening posts all over the place and people at them heard all this mess and probably saw a lot of it. Unless you kill them all you can’t keep this secret forever.
In the process of outing the intel she is outing obastard for being just what he is... an empty suit not the least bit aware of what is going on or at least not caring what goes on.
obastard just got thrown under the bus by the clintoons in my humble opinion. I think they got fed up with him.
She knows the action is perilous and so did it from Peru. No telling what would happen in Washington. Maybe she will make it back.
exactly... very well played.. man, these 2 sure know the game... with a month of obfiscation, we see who is willing to wear the pants.
sheesh... it just makes him look so incredibly weak, which of course he is...
If Rush doesn’t pick up on this line of thinking then he should..I have to admit, not being a chess player, I hadn’t even thought of this. this was a brilliant stragey on Bill and Hillary’s part.
Was she channeling Alexander Haig?
Payback for the 2008 Democrat Primaries and the shennanigans at the caucases. The Clintons have long political memories.
That was only the first lie.
Hillary taking “respoinsibility” for this has to make people wonder just what obastard is supposed to be doing since the white hut entered the fracas with the lie. If it was Hillary’s job the white hut should have deferred all to her on this matter.... they didn’t. They stepped right in the middle of it.
This is positively ‘Clinton-esque’
I wonder if Bill is behind the strategery?
Great thread and read. The Clinton’s just teed it up for Romney tonight. I will be very disappointed if he doesn’t crush the Marxist with a succinct 2-3 lines about the meaning of true leadership.
Hillary said she was responsible and at the same time threw whoever is in charge of security staffing under the bus.
I love this one: ""What Hillary has done is hand Mitt a baseball bat, turned him in the direction of the giant Obama pinata on stage tonight and said, "Have at buddy. Maybe I'll see you in four years"""""
These are the CLINTONS after all, friends of no one, foe's to all.
Vast right wing conspiracy tea party people cause all this./s
I still have comments on this of course. There are funny scenarios that could play out. We might see obastard try to take the blame for this so that he can assert that he and not Hillary is really in charge.
If I didn’t know better I’d suspect this is checkmate. He is caught in the corner with no good way out. I’m sure I’m wrong though. Axlerod has to have gamed this mess nine ways to Sunday unless Hill just did a random. Hard to game for random and what normally seem like irrational actions.
I’m so glad that someone else sees Hillary’s taking responsibity for the deaths of Ambassador Stevens and the 3 other Americans as, I believe, Hillary and Bill’s “How dare you throw me under the bus, here try this on for size. I’m the adult.” I agree, Hillary just gave Mitt a big base ball bat to club Obama with. Talk about “get evenism” I may be wrong but, I can see Obama losing it tonight because Obama is a petulent child who likes to “PLAY” president but that is as far as it goes.

Romney should bring this up tonight. Who's in charge?
