“300 to 400 national security officials received emails detailing the Benghazi terrorist attack as it was happening”
These guys have to testify. Get an independent prosecutor now.
I don't think Bill really wanted to speak for him at the convention. And, I don't think Hillary likes working closely with Obama. She is happy with the distance between them. She will have to defend herself if she wants to run in the future.
This is a zero-sum game for the future of the democratic party.
It only matters who survives, not how weakened you are, as long as your enemy is dead.
They’re dribbling the info - there’s no way Hillary will fall on the sword for Jarrett let alone Obama.
However, since her current campaign debt is down from owing $25 million and now only owes $100,000 to Mark Penn, Doug Schoen and Michael Berland for campaign consulting, she could afford to turn on Obama.
Hillary is a pathological liar. I would not put much weight in what she says.
It wasn’t that long ago she was blaming the video for the attack. This is all
Just rope-a-dope, a diversion.
She knows what SHE did to Vince Foster. Same could happen to Chelsea, meaning “Breitbarted”???
These people are very screwed and calculated!!!
“she doesnt want to be viewed as a traitor to the Democratic party.”
These Dems never heard of putting country before party.
They have absolutely no SHAME!
Power Mongers and Traitors All!
She needs to resign and then march into Darryl Issa’s committee room and swear herself in. Like Jack Ryan did in Clear and Present Danger.
Her only hope of salvaging her political career is to come clean. Obama will destroy her if she doesn’t make the first move.
Many times
I wouldn’t hold my breath as she stood alongside Obama repeating his lies. If there are files that would exonerate her they could arrange for them to be leaked just as the recent memos have been leaked. There are ways around it and the Clintons are very adept getting information out there.
I disagree.... I think Hillary would cross him.... makes sense... if he wins, at the end of the next 4 years, the country will be a total mess and weary of anyone associated to Obama.... so likely that the 2016 election would be won by a Republican. So let Obama lose now, so that Hillary could run 2016.
For some reason Issa and the GOP are afraid of her.
Maybe she still has copies of those FBI files. She should have been the first to be put under oath.
Hillary would rather be a traitor to the USA than to the rat party.
She’s true to form isn’t she - subjecting herself to endless humiliation for the sake of her so called husband and the rat party. And now she’s rewarded with pretending to be the United States Secretary of State.
It seems to me that the failure to protect our people in Benghazi is simple politics. Obama did not want to upset the Muslim Brotherhood by inserting US military in a rescue attempt. Obama has decided to back the Brotherhood and keeping on their good side was, in Obama’s mind, worth the lives of the four Americans. He may have been further influenced by the fact that the Ambassador and his guard were white.
As much as can’t stand Slick Willie he is right. This would be a politically astute move for Hillary. The party would not blame her, Obama is going to lose anyway and if she brings him down harder, less crap on the party is probably what they will think. He can be the sacrifice. They can spend the next 4 years blaming it on Obama. Come on Hillary do it, or at least leak those documents through someone else. Leave them lying on a desk somewhere.......
Man Up Hilary! Do the right thing now!!
As much as I’d like to believe it, this sounds like a huge CYA for all parties involved in the coverup.
1. Provides Hillary cover from charges of incompetence by spreading a rumor that she asked for more security.
2. Allows Hillary to look good with the socialist party by making her appear fiercely loyal to the point of falling on the sword.
3. Bill gets cover by simply being able to deny the story.
4. Obama gets cover by also being able to deny the story and to continue to allow Hillary to take the heat.
An attempt to make lemonade out of lemons.
It would be great if I was wrong.
Hopefully she’ll do the right thing and stand up on her own two feet.
You got that right. This was the perfect storm.
