Blumenthal emails were relevant! Chris was being asked to react to the damn things. Politics. Get it?

Uggggh, AGAIN with Blumenthal.

Thanks for confirming this is hitting you Clintonites where it hurts

Sec of State uses her office to topple a 3rd world oil regime for a political corny? Some rabbit hole.

Maybe you need to put down your Clinton campaign sound bites and read this

BLUMENTHAL ......info from Gowdy’s letter .....(pardon typos):

Blumenthal was acting as Clinton’s de facto political advisor.

Blumenthal tried to heavily influence the Secretary of State to intervene in Libya & he pushed hard for a no-fly zone in Libya before the idea was being discussed internally by senior U.S. Government officials. Clinton told Blumental that she was pushing the option with the (UN) Security Council & to “stay tuned”. Shortly thereafter the US pushed a no-fly zone through the UN Security Council.

Once Blumenthal got his way and a no-fly zone was established he pushed for a more aggressive posture by the US in the conflict, including arming the rebels. To support his rationale to Secretary Clinton, he used sagging polling numbers. (See memo at link)

Blumenthal advocates for increased aggression in Libya to help the Administration in the polls, increase Obama’s chances for reelection, and have Secretary Clinton appear presidential.

Blumenthal’s motive – money.
Beyond the pure politics that were occurring at this time ….. at the same time Blumenthal was pushing Secretary Clinton to war in Libya he was privately pushing a business interest of his own in Libya that stood to profit from contracts with the new Libyan government – a government that would exist only after a successful US intervention in Libya that deposed Qaddafi. This business venture was the one he shared with Tyler Drumheller and Cody Shearer, the authors of the information sent to secretary Clinton.

And the info continues ….... https://benghazi.house.gov/sites/republicans.benghazi.house.gov/files/TG%20letter%20to%20EEC%2010.7.15.pdf

Awwww...reject from the DUmp?

We got our own little Hill-bot.

You are brave in a sad sort of way. Most Donks act like they like Bernie because Hillary is so vile they are shamed to openly support her.

Are you PAID or a VOLUNTEER for the Clinton Campaign? If paid, kindly give us a sense of what we could make if we wanted to join in the misinformation campaign. Also let us know where/how to apply.

Quite important. Like Gowdy said...They’re not Blumenthal’s emails...They’re Hillary’s emails.
