Author Ed Klein: As Benghazi blame nears Hillary, Clintons grow furious
Daily caller ^ | 10/12/2012 | Alex Pappas

Posted on 10/13/2012 1:26:48 AM PDT by TigerClaws

With tensions between President Obama and the Clintons at a new high, former President Bill Clinton is moving fast to develop a contingency plan for how his wife, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, should react if Obama attempts to tie the Benghazi fiasco around her neck, according to author Ed Klein.

In an exclusive interview with The Daily Caller, Klein said sources close to the Clintons tell him that Bill Clinton has assembled an informal legal team to discuss how the Secretary of State should deal with the issue of being blamed for not preventing the Benghazi terrorist attack last month.

They were all asleep at the wheel.

Of course Hillary is just as guilty of incompetence,
malfeasance and dereliction of duty as Obama and his entire administration of quacks, queers, commies, Affirmative Action appointees and other human oddities.

The administration has concentrated more on persecuting American citizens than thinking about the possibility of muslim attacks against us on 9/11.

Hillary is just the last in a long, unbroken line of worthless Affirmative Action Secretaries of State. She doesn't belong under the bus - she belongs in prison along with Obama, Biden, Holder and the rest of the Obama menagerie.

It will be interesting to see which side the press takes on this - Obama or Hillary?
Hopefully they will stick with Obama, letting Hillary take the rap and killing her chances for a run at the presidency in 2016.

Better yet say a WH source has admitted that “IT’s HILLARY’s FAULT!”

Brilliant. Use the old unnamed source inside the administration. If they read it here they can make it two sources!

Good! I hope they are furious enough to release ALL the information they have on the pos in chief.

Schadenfreunde. The Clintons are as dangerous if not more so than Obama. Obama’s only a second-hand puppet who applies what he read about alinsky, while Hillary is a first-hand disciple.

Why doesn't someone ask Obama, “Who told you that the attack was caused by a video?” Sure would like to know what his answer would be.

Someone in the White House decided that didn’t follow the script. So they lied. They now want Hillary to take the fall.

There is the crux of it. You have two individual/groups who are used to having people fall on their swords for them. Now they are in a situation where one of the two parties HAS to take the blame. Neither side wants it to be them. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

It doesn't serve either the obamas or clintons for this to come to a head before the elections. If Romney pushes hard enough and in the right direction, he could get this all to boil over before that time, though.

After 911 I think laughing Joes excuse that they didn’t know the embassy requested more security is worse. Did they not know because they weren’t told or cause Obama was of playing either way not good for team Obama

The leftist lizards are working themselves up into a cannabalistic feeding frenzy. This is GREAT to watch.
Incompetant sophomoric idjits, in way over their head in Benghazi. Obama wants instability in Libya....a very “nuanced” fact. Hillery gave it to him.

Bill Clinton is in my state, Ohio, campaigning with Bruce Springsteen. I would love to break that alliance and have all the crap the Clinton’s have on Obama/Biden headlining every grocery store tabloid. Let’s face it, that is where the 47 percent get their “news”.

I am placing my bets on for a Clinton win.

You are dog gone right. As much as I despise Slick Willy, he may be the best politican of the past 100 years.

bill to obama:
I brought you into this office and I can take you out.

The problem is how does he do it and keep his own hands clean. It ain’t that he gives a damn about hillary. THIS comes too close to HIM.

That Biden’s claim and later White House statements that they had no idea there were security concerns at our embassy in Libya is a ploy to put all of the blame for this fiasco on Hillary and take the heat off Obama. Obama is notorious for throwing even long time supporters under the bus whenever they might pose any liability to his reelection. There is bad blood between Obama and the Clintons ever since Obama nixed Hillary’s seemed shoe in for the nomination in 2008 and Bill was furious that Obama would use the “race card” against her. I am sure the Clintons have some dirt on Obama that they will let leak right before the election to sink Obama and pave the way for Hillary to be the white knight riding in to save the Democratic Party after a crushing defeat in November.

Hillary was too busy with global "gay rights" issues to be concerned with acts of terrorism.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton marked Human Rights Day yesterday (12/6/2011) with a historic speech on international gay rights.

Said Clinton to a U.N. audience in Switzerland: "Being LGBT does not make you less human, and that is why gay rights are human rights, and human rights are gay rights."

Clinton added: "I speak about this subject knowing that my own country’s record on human rights for gay people is far from perfect."

Clinton also announced that the U.S. will use both diplomacy and $3 million in foreign aid to help the global fight for gay rights, not a huge some to be sure, but imagine the Sec. of State announcing any foreign aid being spent on gay rights abroad.

SOURCE: Here's The Historic Speech Hillary Clinton Gave On Gay Rights Dec 6, 2011 [link to full text of speech at site]

This was months before the attack on the U.S. embassy (considered American soil) in Libya, but it is only one example of the type of issue for which our Secretary of State was globetrotting.
