Leading The Way!

Well...[sigh]...might as well get used to the idea as IMO the GOP has already handed her the Presidency on a silver platter, even moreso than we did for Obama.

everybody involved in the Benghazi cover up should be rotting in a jail cell somewhere......certainly not running for president


Disclosed: Email Shows Pentagon Offered ‘Forces that Could Move to Benghazi’ Immediately - Washington Free Beacon


Newly released emails show that a senior Defense Department official offered the State Department “forces that could move to Benghazi” immediately during the deadly 2012 attack there on the American consulate.
Jeremy Bash, the former Pentagon chief of staff, offered to provide forces at 7:19 p.m. on the evening of the attack, “only hours after they had begun,” according to Judicial Watch, which disclosed the email on Tuesday.
“We have identified the forces that could move to Benghazi. They are spinning up as we speak,” Bash wrote.
Portions of the email remain redacted by the Obama administration.
“The Obama administration redacted the details of the military forces available, oddly citing a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) exemption that allows the withholding of ‘deliberative process’ information,” according to Judicial Watch.
The newly disclosed email contradicts testimony to Congress by Obama administration officials who cited the inability to immediately provide forces in response to the attack.
“Bash’s email seems to directly contradict testimony given by then-Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta before the Senate Armed Services Committee in February 2013,” writes Judicial Watch.
“Defending the Obama administration’s lack of military response to the nearly six-hour-long attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Panetta claimed that ‘time, distance, the lack of an adequate warning, events that moved very quickly on the ground prevented a more immediate response,’” the group wrote in a press release.
Update 4:19 P.M.: Matt Wolking, press secretary for the House Select Committee on Benghazi, said that lawmakers have been aware of this piece of correspondence but did not release it publicly.
“The Select Committee has obtained and reviewed tens of thousands of documents in the course of its thorough, fact-centered investigation into the Benghazi terrorist attacks, and this information will be detailed in the final report the Committee hopes to release within the next few months,” Wolking told the Free Beacon.
“While the Committee does not rush to release or comment on every document it uncovers, I can confirm that we obtained the unredacted version of this email last year, in addition to Jake Sullivan’s response,” Wolking said. “This email chain helped inform the Committee’s interview of Sullivan in September and will help inform the Committee’s upcoming interviews with Thomas Nides and others.”

Eh, that email [stuff] quit interesting me once I processed it (and thought "yeah, that sounds just like something she'd do..", no surprise at all there). Just more of that hyped-up political pseudo-drama at this point IMO.

I doubt that *one* conservative/liberal changed their opinion of her in any way because of the email issue...which simply won't die. IMO nothing will ever come of it other than a huge waste of resources.
 
It is all relative.

A third party candidate may not win (usually causes one to lose like Gore in 2000) but it would be interesting if neither candidate got 270 electoral votes and then it was left to the House to decide.

Glad I'm not the only person who remembers that. Some behavior simply *defines* a person IMO, and that one qualified. Not that Ol' Bill had a monopoly on icky behavior by a politicial, but...eww, something's wrong with that guy.
