Clinton: Benghazi security was ‘not my ball to carry’
The Hill ^ | July 24, 2016 | Jessie Hellmann

"So when this happened in Benghazi, I immediately stood up an independent committee -- distinguished Americans, military and civilian experts. They came out and they said, "You know, the ball was dropped -- in security. And, you know, some of the decisions that were made, probably should have been rethought."

Clinton went on to say concerns about security at the American Diplomatic Compound in Benghazi never reached her.

“It was not my ball to carry. … Those [security reports] never reached me. Those never came to my attention,” she said.

I’d hate to be Bill Clinton, (especially) now. She may need to play the ace of spades soon, at this rate.

“It was not my ball to carry. … Those [security reports] never reached me. Those never came to my attention, because that was when my illegal private email server in my bathroom was down, and all of the classified email addressed to me failed to reach my insecure, NSA-disapproved Blackberry” Hillary said.

I just saw part of her speech to the VFW. She’s trying to make it look like she’s the defender of our military, and went off about how dare anyone suggest our nations’ military is diminished and no longer able to project power around the globe. Where was she on 9/11/12? Now she tells us it wasn’t her ball to drop. Unbelievable.

SOMEBODY NEEDS TO ‘FFIN SPEAK UP

OS Marines guard places in Rome, Ottawa
and Oslo.

Hillary decided that our interests in Benghazi
was guarded by terrorists from the
February 17 Martyrs Brigade

I do not see how she is any different from the current occupant of the White House.

Both are indifferent to any human condition outside their own.

They came out and they said, "You know, the ball was dropped -- in security.

They came out and they said, You dropped the ball in security.

...some of the decisions that were made, probably should have been rethought."

The decisions that you made, were just idiotic, even retarded.
