Benghazi Committee Hearing Just Started

[Boudicca]

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/10/22/high-stakes-for-clinton-in-benghazi-committee-appearance/?intcmp=hppop

In advance of her testimony, the Clinton campaign released a summary that said she is appearing before the committee to honor the memory of the four Americans killed in Benghazi. The summary said Clinton will testify that Benghazi was a tragedy that must be learned from but that America must continue to lead in a dangerous world.

Further, the statement said this approach to diplomacy "involves an element of risk-taking that can never be eliminated outright."

The statement does not mention evidence that under her leadership, the State Department ignored requests for additional security from then-Ambassador Chris Stevens, killed in the attack along with three other Americans. This, as well as concerns that she helped push a faulty narrative that the attack grew out of protests over an anti-Islam Internet video, are sure to surface Thursday.



I certainly have confidence that Trey Gowdy will do everything in his power today to bring closure, finally, to the victims' families.  I'm every bit as confident that HRC and her Democrat minions on the committee will do all in their power to obfuscate, up to and including perjury in her case, to attempt to wiggle out from under the case against her.

What is the over/under on her saying "what difference does it make" or blaming the whole thing on the VWRC?

the Clinton campaign released a summary that said she is appearing before the committee to honor the memory of the four Americans killed in Benghazi.

so her appearance has nothing to do with the fact that she was subpoenaed to appear and is legally required to appear, but she is appearing to "honor the memory" of the people she left out twisting in the wind.

That statement shows how she feels she is above the law and not subject to it.

[Boudicca]

What is the over/under on her saying "what difference does it make" or blaming the whole thing on the VWRC?

They just began their opening statements; Trey's was brilliant while Elijah Cummings is being the white woman's whore, you know, what you'd expect from a Dimmie.

From the news article I linked to earlier, this is all the liar has stated thus far re the four dead heroes:

She's not honoring them in any way shape or form.

This arrogant Libtard bitch still to this day doesn't hink she did anything wrong or had anything to do with what happened in Benghazi.

Just look at her answer about Libya during the debate.  She still insists it was a great use of "smart power".

The blood of four dead Americans is on her hands as well as a couple of others and she quite frankly doesn't care.

[Boudicca]

Trey just told her they didn't cut off her opening remarks, but that they WOULD get to ALL the questions today.   That's my guy.  I'm glad I am DVRing this because I'm going to have to miss part of this right now and I do want to watch justice being done for those four men. 
The damn twat is stonewalling on Question #1 already and here already came her first CACKLE.  History will damn that woman because she has absolutely no shame.  Go over to the fox news article and read some of the comments.  I'm not the only HRC hater out there.

[txradioguy]

and here already came her first CACKLE. 

She always does that when she's nervous and about to lie about something.  It's a device she uses.

You'll always hear the mating call of the Arkansas Broadbeam when Her Thighness gets cornered.

[The Stranger]

I just cut my ears off.
BORING and nothing has been said yet just a CAMPAIGN STOP for her!

[The Stranger]

BOY her staff sure does make a lot of stuff up!
Now she don't even know them and they're not even on the staff.
BUT they emailed about her or to her.
This is a waste of time she will just make up lie after lie as she is doing.
I have no recollection. 

[Belle]

Savage said yesterday, that even if she were indicted & thrown in jail, she'd still win the nomination!

 txradioguy: 

She always does that when she's nervous and about to lie about something...

I always thought of lies to Hillary are as natural to her as breathing air.
 
Boudicca: 

...while Elijah Cummings is being the white woman's whore, you know, what you'd expect from a Dimmie.

True, & oh, so funny!

Prediction:  If O says nothing will come out of these hearings, nothing will.  & since his reputation in entwined with hers, well, sit back & enjoy the show.  After all, we're funding it.

The saddest, most tragic part of all of this:  4 Americans died, & in my opinion, it could have been prevented. 

[Boudicca]

Well, at this point I've come back and now can saw I can't watch any longer.  That creature sitting there feels no shame.  She is nothing more or less than a psychopathic, soulless borg.  When faced with her own words, in the emails this committee has managed to collect after 7 other investigations were met with total stonewalling tactics by her and her demons, those likewise soulless creatures inhabiting seats with the Democrat imprimatur, this **** (and yes, it is more than deserved in this particular case and I make no apologies for deploying it) lies and lies and lies some more.  I imagine if I were to watch the Nuremberg trial testimony of evil men, I could easily place her amongst them, equally as morally devoid and as pitiless in her view of those she considers lesser beings (in her case the American people).
She is not worth the shit I scraped off the bottom of my shoes when I accidentally stepped into a doggie pile out back, nothing she says or does makes a tinker's damn's worth of difference.  She has blood dripping from her hands like Lady MacBeth, but unlike the lady, she doesn't even possess enough conscience of wrongdoing to compulsively wash the blood from her hands.  I cannot stand listening to her Dimmie lackey foot soldiers pontificate on how wronged she's been while she plays the victim card.
I thought Obama was evil; today I have looked upon it and it is a bland granny.  **** her and all of her supporters.  YOU ARE THE REASON EVIL THRIVES.

[Mary Ann]

Trey Gowdy is ripping the old crone a new one!!!!! She's going to blow at any minute!

Wonder why we look like buffoons to the rest of the world. Not one question has been answered yet!

All of the (D)'s on the committee are making statements saying this is a witch hunt against Hillary and all these allegations have been refuted over and over again. And Hillary just sits there with this shit eating grin and smirk on her face when they the (D)'s talk.

Another reason why I dislike (D)'s ... they bullshit, avoid and give non answers to everything that comes up.

It is a witch hunt...to expose Hillary as the witch she is.

Perfect example of the difference between Republicans right now and the Dems.  Dems circle the wagons around their own.

This is in part because the RINO's allow it. They should endlessly ask a question if it takes 10 minutes or ten hours until they either get an answer or Clintoon blows a gasket. But they cave every time!

[SVPete]

The Ds did this, successfully, with WJC and ever since. Until the Rs jam it down their throats and out the other end the Ds will keep using the tactic.

[Boudicca]

The morning after news drivel is that she won.  Before I had to stop watching, I was shaking so hard with anger that I was afraid I'd have a heart attack.
Like Custer, Hitlary fought the enemy behind carcasses of the fallen.  Unlike Custer, she didn't use dead horses, she hunkered down behind the bodies of four heroes savagely slain by the same kind of animals she and Obama's Libyan strategyfatal error in judgement enabled.  I thought she couldn't sink any lower but then I heard the bloody cow actually had the nerve to state that no one had lost as much sleep over the events of September 11, 2012, than she had.  I can only cringe in horrified sympathy for the victims' loved ones who were forced to sit there listening to her LIE and her Dim minded, morally bankrupt asshole cronies on the panel spend their allotted time, not to question her about her role in the deaths, but to offer supportive platitudes and attempt to scold the Republicans on the panel.
I hope they all burn in Hell for their sins.  They certainly don't seem to mind that right now the victims' families are living in hell right here on Earth.  They could at least be honest enough to spare all of us the spectacle of their crocodile tears and false sympathy for the families.

[Belle]

It's a scary thought to think she could be the next President. 
Yikes, did she blame Ambassador Steven's for his own death?

But Mrs. Clinton said the lack of better security in Benghazi at the time of the attack was the responsibility of Stevens himself and the security professionals she trusted to advise her, and who rejected some of the ambassador’s requests.

“Chris Stevens had an opportunity to reach me directly any time he thought there was something of importance,” the former secretary said.

"...more than 600 security requests related to Libya and Benghazi that came in in 2012 before the Sept. 11, 2012 terrorist attack none ever reached her desk."

All of Blumenthal's 150 emails did reach her desk.

In my cynical opinion, this ended up being a showcase for Hillary to look Presidential under pressure.  The MSM did the spin on this multiple times. 

& after the hearing in which she accepted no responsibility for the 4 slain Americans, it it was party time @ her house where "we sat around eating Indian food, and drinking wine and beer."

Yes, we know her lies & how well she's protected.  & the families of these unforgotten heros also know.

Hitlery may have won the hearing debacle but she will lose the war come election time. For most independent thinking voters, this will remind them of the numerous lies she told such as she was not in the loop, she never heard about the distress signals, she knew nothing about security, not remembering thousand of emails that were government related, and what difference does it make that 4 Americans are dead.

She is a liar and a crook for taking $190,000 worth of china and silverware when they left office. Looks like that scum bag, convicted criminal will campaign for her. I hope that we  have a candidate that  will remind folks of that because this is going to be a down and dirty race. Plus, I have not mentioned the fact the M.E. is in a hell of a mess because of her and Obummer's leadership.

While I agree with you, I am not so sure that she will lose the war come election time. The liberal leftist midget mentality at the end of the day, still believes that the GOP was on a witch hunt and she is innocent when it comes to Benghazi.  Hillary can do no wrong; the reality of the situation is she is all the DEMS have other than Sanders. They will vote for her.  The other reality is and perhaps her "trump" card is who she selects as her running mate.  If she picks Warren the GOP will be in an uphill battle all the way.  I have no doubt.  Warren is the progressive's dream.  You would have Hillary who will appeal to the more moderate long time DEMS and you will have Warren who will appeal to the young DEMS and all those "politically correct" and the far left.  Secondly, they would be the first female president and vice president.  That in itself will be a huge draw (again we are talking liberal mentality). Biden is not running.  O'Malley dropped out of the race; if he runs 3rd party as he hinted, it would help the GOP. So Hillary is it.

Not trying to be negative here, but the other reality is several voting districts in key states such as Florida have been mandated to redraw their districts which heavily favors DEMS.  Amnesty via executive order as far as I know is still on the table -- if they grant voting rights -- the GOP is done.

Last but not least.  We are talking about trying to stop the Clinton dynasty which not only includes a former popular president but the Clinton Global Initiative Foundation which is  deeply connected with the U.N. as well as the Middle East.

I have, very, very reluctantly, concluded that in order to stop the creature that is Hitlery, it will take every opposition vote we can muster against her.  She will have arrayed a consortium of illegal criminals with their felonious documents, the racial hucksters and deluded groupies, her vast network of bought and paid for union and business interests and their ignorant followers and above all, the myriad gaggle of faux outraged Ta'Shaye's, Benito's, and Muhamed's out there, plus all their moronic sympathizers like the inmates at Skimmer's Sanctuary for Sorta People with Major Brain Damage.
It absolutely GALLS me to admit this, but better Jeb or Rubio, Mr. Gang of Eight Amnesty Advocates, than the likes of Hitlery or the oh so romantic Bernie.  Seriously, what better honeymoon could a gal ever dream of than one spent in the old Soviet Union?  Wonder if Bernie was as epic a FAIL on the big night as the Communist government proved over the decades?

Boudicca: 

...it will take every opposition vote we can muster against her. 

I admire your optimism.  I kind of lost mine.  The liberals have the MSM, illegals, refugees, dead people, double people, public unions, Scytl &  what libertybele reminded us:

Here's an article titled "Do Hillary's Lies Matter?"

It starts out with the author's thoughts on a campaign video:

it would be Hillary before the caskets of the four Americans slaughtered in Benghazi blaming an obscure video and its maker for the incident; Hillary telling the father of one of the deceased, Ty Woods, that the video maker would be arrested (“we are going to have the film maker arrested who was responsible for the death of your son"), and her testimony before the committee that she never blamed it on the video. The ad would take just a couple of minutes. .  Message at end -- are you ready for a president who lies over the bodies of dead American patriots?

I doubt that any of the Repub. candidates with the exception of Trump and Cruz would air a video like that. Although I like Carson, he is in the goody, goody, two shoes mole of Mitt, who wimped out) and the rest of the Repub. candidates running in 06. IMO, we need a bare knuckles fighter who will sling as much mud as Clinton and the Demos do.
