And the guys who took down Flight 93 committed suicide...
The Jews at Auschwitz died of faulty ventilation...
I don't know why anybody watches or reads these turds.

A longtime political pundit under fire for claiming the American ambassador to Libya was not "murdered" in Benghazi is standing by her claim he died of smoke inhalation.
"I'd like to point out that Ambassador (Chris) Stevens was not 'murdered;' he died of smoke inhalation in that safe room in that CIA installation," Eleanor Clift, a columnist at The Daily Beast, said Sunday on "The McLaughlin Group."
While Clift may be technically correct in light of reports that Stevens died from smoke inhalation, she was criticized because the ambassador died as a result of a fire ignited during a terrorist raid on the Benghazi consulate on Sep. 11, 2012.
She stood by her comment Tuesday during a radio interview.
"I was taking issue with the sort of glib use of the word 'murdered,'" Clift told radio host Steve Malzberg. "My point is that it was a very chaotic event. The CIA was involved, which is why there was a lot of confusion initially, and that all the questions that this special committee is raising have been asked and answered in previous investigations."
Malzberg asked if she would feel the same way if it was her relative. She replied, "I would say he died of smoke inhalation."
Author and columnist Pat Buchanan, who was on the Sunday show's panel, reportedly said he was "stunned cold" by her remarks.

If you note over the years, Eleanor Clift is a Liberal specialist used to float trial-balloon lies and repeat them as often as needed.
Ummm, is Eleanor Clift blaming the CIA? Or the people who built the 'safe room'?
Anyone, anyone at all other than radical Muslims who caused his death.
She gaslights, which is a form of mental abuse in which false information is presented with the intent of making a victim doubt his or her own memory, perception and sanity.
She is proud of her disconnect with reality, and she -- like another insane power-mad narcissist, Barack Obama -- simply doubles-down on her lie.
One can assume that either she is insane, or she is utterly dishonest. I put forth that she is both. When she dies, presumably of natural causes, the planet Earth will become a little bit saner and a little bit more honest.
Eleanor Clift.....standing on the sidewalk trying to put nickels in a fire hydrant to pay for parking.
You left out the part where you stand outside with an AK-47 and threaten to shoot anyone leaving the house.
IOW—NO ONE should be held accountable for ANYTHING bad that happens, especially if they belong to the Dim party!
Of course she does
Same as all liberals claim liberalism is good for us and the constitution is worthless
She is beneath contempt. She is an evil monster.
No one was murdered on 9/11 either. They died of burns, smoke inhalation, blunt force trauma, and suicide.
E. Clift is scum.
I think she is narrowing her definition to the extent someone had to deliberately plot and execute the death. In her mind the way Benghazi played out does not rise to that level. The problem is, it’s in her mind and we do not have all the facts. Those seem to be hard to come by with this administration.
Ellie’s the biggest birdbrain in MSMland, and that’s saying something.
It’s called “nuance.”
The left are masters at the word game. “What is, “is?”
It’s very Obvious.
Ambassador Stevens had a duty to leave the “Safe Room” so he could be Murdered in the proper fashion.
This would erase all of Eleanor’s doubts I’m sure.
Surprised they’re not calling it a “workplace accident”.
So, if I set fire to Eleanor Clift’s house and one of her relatives was sleeping there, and she died of smoke inhalation, I am not a murderer?
OK...
************************************
If her house is in the USA then you are a murderer... however “murder” is a legal term ,, the ambassador was certainly a homicide victim ,, legally however it depends on Libyan law ... lets face it ,, you can be legally killed in these countries for possessing a bible or if a woman , smiling at a man.. was it a “legal” killing and not a “murder” ,, that all depends on who and what the law is/was on that day..
That said ,, Eleanor Clift is still an idiot.
Reports were he survived the fire. Did she see the autopsy or just carrying the water? She has been a lying Marxist her entire career.
Pray America wakes up
Oh . . . and there are two levels we need to look at: The ones who actually killed our brave Americans, and the ones whose negligence allowed it to happen. But . . . in order to avoid doing what the left does, namely saying, “Stupid!” when someone says something objectionable, we should at least listen to Clift as if to comprehend where she is coming from. I tend to operate with a fairly narrow definition of murder.
Wait... Say that just one more time, Eleanor...I don’t think that everyone knows how stupid you are. Just one more time, to be sure, please.
She's such an idiot!
Everyone knows they take quarters now.
