Hillary's going to have to run on that record, as well as her flippant and callous testimony to the Senate Committee when she said "What difference at this point does it make?" regarding the cause of the four deaths. If she can squirm and 'splain her way out of that every day for a year, then I guess she will deserve to be President.

You KNOW how the MSM will spin this. They didn't have the $ to protect the Amb and his party, because the GOP House didn't fund it, and cut $ for security.

Princess " the cupboard is bare " Pelosi said so.

This admin, and the MSM, will do and say ANYTHING to protect their chosen elites.

And the GOP are too frelling scared to do / say anything about it, because they thihnk that if they play nice w/ the MSM, they too can be besties w/them, and then be treated w/ kid gloves too !

There was colossal scandalous Democratic behavior w/ regard to Benghazi. At the very least, it was incompetence on a cataclysmic level.

That's the only excuse for why he was in country, with a light footprint, low security, so as to not raise suspicion. It didn't work out too well. So to cover up their tracks, Obama / Hillary, who ever, simply allowed him to get killed, along w/ those in his party, did nothing come to their aid, and why Obama was AWOL " somewhere " in the White House that day, even as events were known to be taking place. He wasn't in the situation room, that much is known.

That they then went on a WEEKS long campaign of lies, cover ups and diversions in blaming the attack on a YouTube video which had come out earlier that summer, and hardly anyone had seen, is damn near impeachable by itself. Talk about deplorable , deliberate acts to save their ass on election day! This is TEXTBOOK cover up.

The shut down was cause by Obama, not the Republicans, over the ACA. It had zero to do w/ Benghazi. Not real sure what wires you have crossed, but there seems to be quite a few.

That's exactly what it was, but the MSM tried to dismiss it as 'low voter turn out' and such. No clever slogans or majestic greek columns to report this time.

And now they have control in both houses, let's see what fun and mischief they can get into from here til 2016. I can't wait until January.

Not a single one of them, not anyone from their collective offices, have ever lifted a finger or a telephone to check back with them.

All I really know is, Hillary lied, Hillary lied and all those people at the medal ceremony, including President Obama, who came up to me and Hillary came up to me and Panetta came up to me, Biden came up to me. They all looked at me within two inches of my face and lied to me and told me it was the video that did it. Including Susan [Rice]--she came up to me too--who said it was the video. And then they promised me that they would check into it and find out all the details and get back to me. And nobody, nobody, ever got back to me "

You want Obama, Clinton, Biden and Rice to be grief counselors? Really? Since you know what happened at Benghazi, show the world how wrong Obama is -- go and tell those mothers what you know. Try to comfort them. You're a better grief counselor than Obama could ever be. You can get yourself on the News, too, promoting your ideals. And have Presidents in the past attended the funerals of dead soldiers? No, with exceptions. http://historynewsnetwork.org/article/1784

There is no scandalous Democratic behavior, and there never was. It was all just manufactured outrage from the beginning. It was the Republicans' using Benghazi to get re-elected that was scandalous.

The exoneration of the White House was sweeping and nearly absolute. Quoting directly from the report's summary, here it is:

The Committee first concludes that the CIA ensured sufficient security for CIA facilities in Benghazi....Appropriate U.S. personnel made reasonable tactical decisions that night, and the Committee found no evidence that there was either a stand down order or a denial of available air support....

Second, the Committee finds that there was no intelligence failure prior to the attacks. In the months prior, the IC provided intelligence about previous attacks and the increased threat environment in Benghazi, but the IC did not have specific, tactical warning of the September 11 attacks.

Third, the Committee finds that a mixed group of individuals, including those affiliated with Al Qa'ida, participated in the attacks....

Fourth, the Committee concludes that after the attacks, the early intelligence assessments and the Administration's initial public narrative on the causes and motivations for the attacks were not fully accurate....There was no protest. The CIA only changed its initial assessment about a protest on September 24, 2012, when closed caption television footage became available on September 18, 2012 (two days after Ambassador Susan Rice spoke)....

Fifth, the Committee finds that the process used to generate the talking points HPSCI asked for—and which were used for Ambassador Rice's public appearances—was flawed....

Finally, the Committee found no evidence that any officer was intimidated, wrongly forced to sign a nondisclosure agreement or otherwise kept from speaking to Congress, or polygraphed because of their presence in Benghazi. The Committee also found no evidence that the CIA conducted unauthorized activities in Benghazi and no evidence that the IC shipped arms to Syria.

Under Obammy, that is the correct statement each and every time. Witholder, Rice, Hillary, Sibelius, Lerner - none of them will ever be held accoutable for their spreading of Bobo's falsehoods, because they do it at Bobo's behest.

House Intel Panel Debunks many Benghazi theories

We finally have the definitive answers on the whole Benghazi conspiracy;

Yes, Virginia there is NO conspiracy!!!

After 5, count 'em, 5 Congressional hearings and 1 state department investigation it is reported that:

"A two-year investigation by the Republican-controlled House Intelligence Committee (an oxymoron if ever I heard one) has found that the CIA and the military acted properly in responding to the 2012 attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, and asserted no wrongdoing by the Obama Administration appointees."

"Debunking a series of persistent allegations hinting at dark conspiracies, the investigation of the politically charged incident determined that there was no intelligence failure, no delay in sending a CIA rescue team, no missed opportunity for a military rescue, and no evidence the CIA was covertly shipping arms from Libya to Syria."

"The House Intelligence Committee report was released with little fanfare on the Friday before Thanksgiving Week."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My question is will there be an apology by the likes of Issa, Rand Paul and the like to the Obama Administration, and to the American taxpayer for such frivolous, wasteful and scurrilous actions taken by the House Republicans?

Can we ever get any of those millions back from this debacle? Or from the amazingly stupid government shutdown that cost $25 Billion (with a B).

When will it end?

Oh, wait......I see my good friends over in La-La Land have conjured up yet another imagined scandal............the IRS. Fuck! this is tiring.

Well, I say go get 'em Mr. President......fuck 'em all in the ass without Vaseline!
