House investigators asked Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to testify next week about the September 11 terrorist attack in Benghazi, but she declined citing a scheduling conflict.

“[Clinton] was asked to appear at House Foreign Affairs next week, and we have written back to the Chairman to say that she’ll be on travel next week,” State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland told reporters yesterday. “She has a commitment with the Secretary of Defense to the AUSMIN Ministerial.” Per AFP, “AUSMIN is the highest level forum for Australia and US consultation on foreign policy, defense and strategic issues.” The United States is reportedly concerned about Australia’s plan to cut their defense spending.

We are truly living in a nightmare. Where is Issa when we need him? I am sick over this whole election and even more so when I contemplate that Obama “won” through voter fraud. I just feel we are fighting (if anyone is actually fighting - other than Allen West) a losing battle. The Obama fortress is impenetrable.

I would tell her that we’ll expect her when she gets back and issue a subpoena.

At the very least, maybe she’ll subs unavailable permanently

Why bother with her? Hillary gives only one answer in these investigations - “I don’t remember”

I guess the protection of the kangaroos and duck-billed platypus is more important than an ambassador getting murdered.

I was once a technocrat in a small southwestern state.

I was frequently asked to appear before one or more committee(s) of the state legislature to testify on this or that.

I respectfully declined every time.

While I disagree with Hillary Clinton on almost everything else, I admire her for doing this.

She has more low-hanging gonads in my book than all 3 branches of the federal government combined.

Nothing is impenetrable except the thoughts of G-d. Achilles had his heel. We just haven’t found the right weakness yet. But we will.
