If dems had "Hilliary Hopes" for 2016 election, the next six months will squash a campaign effort forever. Why else was she totally silent except one "appearance" to say she takes full responsibility?
So much for transparancy during a Presidential election...

Fact is you have an administration and top officials that by their inaction are guilty of murder, not only that they are all more worried about offending Muslims, and the new leadership in Libya that they were already preconditioned for inaction.
The policies of tolerance, apologies and appeasement when dealing with Muslims, particularly in that region of the world have proven to be a failure. Weakness invites Muslims to attack.
There are no shocking revelations to be made here, there is no reason to assume that anyone will be held responsible for their inaction and complicity. Maybe if they try really hard with a new plan and better "talking points" they can still blame it all on that youtube video.

Like Dukakis in a tank, or Kerry saying, "I voted for it before I voted against it" Hillary will be remembered by Benghazi.
This was her "Three o'clock phone call" that she refused to accept the call.

Clinton turned down the requests for additional security in Benghazi because she couldn't provide it. she already testified before congress on this point. she didn't have enough dept. of state security to fully cover it, and she told the ambassador to stay in Tripoli because it was more heavily defended and secure. she was not authorized to send in military, or CIA security, he disobeyed her and went anyway. old news

A wash after the fact doesn't mean the crap wasn't there.
But hey, she did bump her head, so maybe her memory was compromised?

any evidence?.....this was covered in the hearings, but who cares when you can accuse the entire administration and top officials of murder....because, you know, why wouldn't a president and the sec. of state want one of their own ambassadors murdered...makes perfect sense

In all honesty, I can't fault Hillary completely, she was completely unqualified for the job, along with many others in the administration at the time.. While ignorance is no excuse, it is a fact that should not be missed. When you elect an unqualified leader, you should expect no less in the people he/she selects to delegate authority to.
For all of them I believe they seen all of this as a game, seeking out political angles and not actually dealing with the problems they were faced with and were completely unqualified to to deal with, so in every instance they fell back on what little they knew, and their top considerations in nearly every instance was "how is this going to effect us "politically" without the ability to think beyond that, or that there would be people on the inside that would expose their ineptness and their attempted cover-ups.
