Democrats think Hillary handled Benghazi perfectly
New York Post ^ | June 27, 2016 | Bob Fredericks

Posted on 06/28/2016 5:07:56 AM PDT by detective

Democrats on the House Select Committee on Benghazi issued a report on Monday in which they said that Hillary Clinton was cleared of any responsibility for the deadly terrorist attack.

The report was quickly condemned by Republicans as a “partisan” whitewash.

“We have been hampered in our work by the ongoing Republican obsession with conspiracy theories that have no basis in reality,” says the 344-page report on the Sept. 11, 2012, attack in the Libyan city, during which Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans were killed.

Our only chance at getting Hillary and that’s the FBI. Benghazi is done. It’s over. The republicans let the left control the narrative. And not even sure the email thing will bring her down.

“The five Democrats on the panel admitted security at the compound was “woefully inadequate,” but concluded that Clinton was not to blame because she did not personally reject Stevens’ repeated calls for more security in the volatile region.”

She was in charge of the State Department. It was her responsibility to ensure the safety of those working for State. If, we are believe her (I don’t) that she never ‘personally’ received the requests for more security, it’s because she ran State in a ‘hands off’ manner, and didn’t put nearly as much importance on security that she should have. She was in charge. She is responsible.

If this was a Republican in charge, they would crucify them. If one of Trump’s buildings had a collapse of some section, and people were hurt, they would blame him - not the people who did the actual construction.

Disagree. My congressman is pretty good. We’re lucky to have him.

FR POSTED--House Democrats mistakenly release transcript confirming big payout to Clinton friend Sidney Blumenthal
June 27, 2016, 3:09 PM | LATimes Reporting from Washington

.....the report, which the Democrats published as a preemptive strike before the Republican majority releases findings likely to charge ineptitude and deception by the former secretary of State, also revealed, apparently unintentionally, details about the eye-popping amount of money a close Clinton friend and advisor made in a contract with a pro-Clinton nonprofit.

And for Democrats, the exchange exposes once again the absurd amounts of money people in the orbit of the Clintons sometimes seem to rake in just for, well, being in the orbit of the Clintons.

“I’d say it’s about $200,000 a year,” Blumenthal said when asked by a committee member how much the part-time work offering up advice and ideas was worth. --SNIP---read more at FRthread.

================================================

At the time Blumenthl cashed in on several side jobs, he as a Clinton Foundation hire, touted as the one to preserve "Clinton's presidential legacy" (cue laugh machine).

So if the Foundation Board of Trustees ere not fully appraised of Sid's side jobs....foundation dollars paid Blumenthal 325,000.....there could be tax problems since trustees are fiduciaries and must be fully appraised of expenditures.

================================================

INCONVENIENT FACTOID Sid Blumenthal was the conniving Clintons' bagman---a $325,000 employee of the Clinton Foundation, he promoted dubious foreign deals and schemes in which he had a financial interest.

Blumenthal was ambidextrous---emailing Libya foreign policy messages w/ one hand....his other hand firmly in the State Dept cookie jar.

In one confidential e-mail to Clinton, Blumenthal was clearly colluding w/ onetime Amb Joe Wilson to help himself to the cookie jar.

GAME ON Wilson pumped himself as a 'director' of Symbion Power---an outfit seeking millions of dollars in contracts from an obscure government agency chaired by Hillary....the Millennium Challenge Corp. (MCC)

In September 2010, Hillary's MCC awarded Symbion $47 million tax dollars for (cough) 'power projects in Tanzania.'

EVER WONDER how much of the $47 million tax dollars got to Tanzania....after the players divvied it up among Blumenthal, Wilson, the Clintons, Obama?

===========================================

FREEPER ACTION PROJECT--DO THIS NOW: demand the MCC books be opened. We demand to know the financial details and the scope and dimension of individuals connected to the State Dept profiting at taxayers' expense.

Fair enough. We disagree.

I have pretty high standards, though.

Democrats support her because they would never put their life on the line for others or for this country. They don’t get it.

I’m worried about what will happen to our military when they no longer believe that our country won’t leave them behind. Will we turn into the crumbling armies of Iraq? Our brave men and women put their lives on the line with the belief that their country and fellow soldiers will do the same for them.

One ‘new’ revelation:

Per FoxNews, Panetta, Obama and Clinton were on a conference call around 7:30 p.m. (DC time) as the attack was still in process. One of their action items/excuses was discussion of a video.

Per previous timelines, the video seemed to come into being the next day (9-12) when Clinton was giving her initial public statement.

==

So, who brought up an obscure video to blame during that 7:30 conference? Apparently, the discussion showed they participants knew it was not the cause. So who suggested it as the excuse?

==

Another revelation:

By the time of the 7:30 conference, Panetta had ordered a military action team to be dispatched.

Military team apparently changed into and out of uniforms several times, as the commanders did not know whether to proceed as a uniformed or clandestined action team.

State Department apparently countered those orders and a conflict developed between State and the Pentagon. Thus, no team was dispatched.

==

9-11 Clinton sent Chelsea an email that it was al-Qaeda who attacked the ambassador/consolate. [Did not hear the time that email was sent.]

I like how the democrats on the committee just decide to issue their own report in advance of the official committee report.

I’d hate to see what would have happened if she had handled it badly. Can an ambassador be killed twice, or a building re-burned to the ground?

Nothing new there. Democrats think everything Hillary does is perfect. Ditto the media. She is the godess of both Democrats and the media. Both worship the ground she walks on.

“BINGO!!!

Any investigation congress does into this administration is like having the Gestapo investigate Poland’s invasion of Germany as a false flag event.
