Report: Hillary Asked For More Security in Benghazi, Obama Said No
Fox News ^ | October 26, 2012 | Christopher collins

Posted on 10/26/2012 9:44:35 AM PDT by lbryce

Last night, it was revealed that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had ordered more security at the U.S. mission in Benghazi before it was attacked where four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens were murdered by Al-Qaeda but President Obama denied the request.

The news broke on TheBlazeTV’s “Wilkow!” hosted by Andrew Wilkow, by best-selling author, Ed Klein who said the legal counsel to Clinton had informed him of this information.

Klein also said that those same sources said that former President Bill Clinton has been “urging” his wife [Hillary] to release official State Department documents that prove she called for additional security at the compound in Libya, which would almost certainly result in President Obama losing the election.

I didn’t think Hillary would take this massive hit for Obama.

0bama bombed Libya WITHOUT CONGRESSIONAL APPROVAL and all he got was Ambassador Stevens’ bloody T-shirt. Perhaps he should’ve gotten Congress’ input first before he decided to overthrow Ghadafi.

You know what? I don't believe her. I'm calling BS on Hillary's claim.

If she asked for more security for her people, and was turned down by the Commander in Chief, or by one of his islamophile gophers, she should have resigned. Right there, on the spot. A serious Secretary of State would have.

And another thing that makes me call BS: Hillary feels exactly the same way - ideologically - as Obumbo does. They are two peas in a pod. She hates America as much as he does. She despises American military power as much as he does. She thinks America deserves to be brought low and humiliated to exactly the same degree as Obama does, which is to say totally.

So I say Miss Hillary is lying through her teeth. She's scared that her "political viability" (to use her husbands phrase in his letter to Colonel Holmes) will be damaged by this.

I can't go out and save every underdefended ambassador in the State Department.

Rush called this yesterday. Before this is over, Hillary is going to make sure that she has no blame-forget she already claimed responsibility-that doesn’t matter when they realize that they can’t stop the truth from coming out.

As Hillary gets thrown under the bus her fingers reach up, grab Obama by the ankles and drags him under the bus with her. Not quite Ahab being pulled down with Moby Dick but it's getting close.

Reminds me of the scene in the first LOTR movie, with Gandalf and the Balrog. Obama throws Hillary down the bottomless pit, only to be snagged around the ankle by one of her whips.

This is the ad that closes the coffin.

If Obama is covering up Benghazi, and he covered up Fast and Furious, what else is he covering up?

I would lace the ad wth documents. Have words like solyndra show up, maybe add birth certificate, college admissions, passport. Just quick pictures.

Force the rats to defense it.

This can’t be true. I just checked the NY Times website and there is nothing on this story. /s

The MSM won't run it at all unless they have to, and then it would only be after they have the denial and spin from the White House to lead with.

Very well said. The fact is, they seethe, despise Obama for having usurped the election from them. She tried stopping the Obama juggernaut during the 2008 campaign by releasing the tapes of Rev. Wright. In any other situation, the candidate against whom the videos of Wright braying “G-d Damn America!” were directed at would have been DOA. Being a left-wing, liberal black man helped deflect even the worst things imaginable about him. The Clintons have shown themselves capable of anything and they’re definitely out to avenge Obama’s taking of “their” White House as long as they can’t be connected to any conspiracy.

It's like the scene from "The Fellowship of the Ring" where Gandalf (Obama) sends the flaming demon (Hillary) into the abyss, but the demon cracks his whip on the way down and drags Gandalf over the edge, too.

(Apologies to LOTR fans)

Sorry, not nearly enough.

I will accept no comments from an author claiming anonymous inside sources on Clinton’s legal team.

IF this is true, Hillary needs to produce the documents showing her request, and the documents showing the refusal.

Then she needs to explain to the American people, and the families of the dead SEALs, why she didn’t resign and go public with this before those heroes fought and died alone, abandoned, and betrayed.

Then she needs to resign.

FU, Clinton.

If Hilary had any brains, she would resign immediately.

I thought of that too, but Gandalf being pulled down was a case of noble sacrifice, not a case of just deserts. (Yes, I was searching TVTropes.org for a more appropriate comparison).

Gov. Romney: “... I had a friend who said you don’t just pick the winners and losers, you pick the losers.”

And apparently, Obama picks those to die (see unmanned drone over Benghazi).

Liberals will try to say that Obama had nothing to do with this and he doesn’t have control over things like these...

And in the same breath, they give him credit for killing Osama bin Laden. There’s even a picture of him sitting in the room watching the assault unfold. Yet when it comes to Benghazi he didn’t know what was going on and had no control.

Can’t have it both ways libs!
