Hillary Clinton's Shameful Intimidation Of Gregory Hicks
Investor's Business Daily ^ | May 9, 2013 | IBD EDITORIALS

Posted on 05/09/2013 4:51:29 PM PDT by raptor22

Scandal In Libya: The secretary of state in the most transparent administration in history has her chief of staff warn a Benghazi whistle-blower to not spill the beans on Benghazi to a U.S. congressman.

In the course of the career of Hillary Clinton's husband, William Jefferson Clinton, there were handlers delegated to deal with what were famously called "bimbo eruptions," past dalliances that might impede his political career.

Now on her own politically, Mrs. Clinton apparently has her own handlers, paid for by the U.S. taxpayer, to deal with what we'll call "Benghazi eruptions." Those who know the truth and are willing to speak it must be dealt with by intimidation.

One of the things we learned during Wednesday's hearings from Greg Hicks, the deputy chief of mission in Libya and a career foreign service officer for 22 years, is that after he talked to investigators about Benghazi, he received a searing phone reprimand from a very angry Cheryl Mills, who happened to be the chief of staff to his boss, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

In the State Department, when Cheryl Mills calls, you pick up the phone. She's been one of the Clintons' right-hand men, so to speak, for decades. She worked in Bill's White House legal office, then as counsel to Hillary's presidential campaign, and then became chief of staff at State when Hillary was appointed secretary. She knows how to help handle "eruptions, " bimbo or otherwise.

Don't upset Hillary, and don't upset Cheryl.

Not much IMO. I think things are winding down for the end times and it’s beyond our ability to stop it.

***Well, yikes. I think we’re on the same page. I don’t know what to tell my children.

Hillary has intimidated many over the years. Her infamous remark “WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?” was a sociopathic attempt to appear self righteous while at the same time going on the OFFENSE, thinking 99% of the morons would be intimidated by her forcefulness.
My initial thought upon hearing that she refused extra security in Benghazi was her BUDGET, and how good she wanted it to look upstairs, to say nothing of her ass being CHEAP.

***That’s what counts in her election. That, and the cooperation of the MSM. Basically, she loses nothing in this episode as long as the MSM is not challenged.

Anyone watch O’Reilly? The mother of one of those killed said Obama, Hillary, Biden, and Susan Rice each told her - to her face - at the memorial service about how this was all over a video.

Lying to the media, OK that’s one thing. But lying to a mother 3 days after her son is killed, in front of his widow and children?

I didn’t know even Hillary could be that low.

What scares me the most is they blamed a Coptic Christian for making a video that led to this “protest.” Is this the beginning of blaming Christians for the troubles in the world? Why hasn’t anyone mentioned this angle to this story. Our government is persecuting Christianity to save Islam.

I expected what I'm about to post to happen in 2007 or early 2008, but the democrip cheating reached a level of reliability that caused them to keep the magic negro on for another run.

What do you bet they have little barry absatrd boy resign and braindead Biden select the hildahag as VP, then he resigns for health reasons and she rules right into the election cycle?

Sounds like Obstruction of Congress, Obstruction of Justice, Witness Tampering, and Whistleblower Act violations to name a few. Eric Holder will be starting his investigation in three, two, one ... billion, 999,999,999, 999,999,998 ...

Same here.

The question is why do they think it’s so cute to support her and her husband?

It must be a psychological condition that’s listed in that American Psychological Association book.

(Maybe it’s mass hyponosis.)

IMHO

Regards

There’s no way that these “Benghazi eruptions” will hamper Hitlery’s progress.

Really? I think that after the smoke clears on this - she's done.

What would make you think such a thing? Has the MSM withdrawn support for democrats?
