The issue here is there was no evidence that the video had anything to do with Benghazi but yet for four weeks that is all we heard from the administration. Only under extreme pressure and evidence did they change their tune and say it was a terrorist act. So either they are very inadequate at their job or were lying from the beginning to help Obama not appear weak before the election.
John McCain really is the poster boy for so many neo cons: old, white, angry and irrational. Totally convinced there has got to be a scandal here that will stick (for political advantage) even as the grown ups in the room go about the business of a) taking responsibility (which she did), and b) identifying the problems and fixing them (except for the ones that require money blocked by GOP congressmen).
5,000 dead in Iraq, four at Benghazi, and she said, the real issue is what do we do to make sure it doesn’t happen again, yes, I agree with her, but with morons that even Bobby Jindal now recognizes as “the stupid party”, where DO we go from here?
So, all those hours of testimony and you still can’t tell the difference between bureaucratic snafu (confessed to, heads taken for) and a purposeful lie (weapons of mass destruction, thousands dead)??
And can we get Condi Rice up there to talk about the warnings prior to 9/11?
