Hillary Clinton was confronted with her conflicting stories about the reasons for the attack on the U.S. Mission in Benghazi, Libya, and answered by throwing the victims’ families under the bus. She suggested they lied, because she never told them about the attack being caused by an offensive video. Perhaps they got caught up in “the fog of war.”
Sun Columnist Tom McLaughlin asked the video vs. planned terrorist attack question. He reminded Clinton that she “told an Egyptian diplomat the Benghazi attack was planned and not a protest but that she told family members of the deceased that the attack was the result of a demonstration. He said she then told George Stephanopoulos that she didn’t tell the families the attack was a demonstration about a film.”
“Somebody is lying,” said McLaughlin.”Who is it?
Clinton replied, “Not me, that’s all I can tell you.”
At the time, Clinton said, everyone was emotionally distraught. She said some families didn’t know their sons were working for the CIA or were in Benghazi. Clinton said the information she had about the attack was from the intelligence community.
Hillary Rodham Clinton is a despicable, lying pig…and has been for decades.
The list of her lies rivals the 169,301 pages (2012 number) in the Code of Federal Regulations.
I’m surprised that she didn’t demand her husband finagle a Purple Heart or Medal of Valor after she dodged sniper fire in Bosnia.
Now, for the reaction from her #1 fanboi...
'sigh….new year, same old tripe pathological liar
...and I will be her biggest fanboi because I love a woman who is:
1. Lying
2. Corrupt
3. Elitist
4. 1%er
5. Abuela-know-best
6. Inept
7. Warmongering
8. Unaccomplished woman who would never have been the Democratic frontrunner but for the fact that she hitched her ambitions to Bill Clinton's coattails
9. Enabled her husband's sexual assaults and harassment
10. Lied to the media and public about her husband's affairs with Elizabeth Gracen, Dolly Kyle Browning, Sally Perdue, Lencola Sullivan, Elizabeth Ward, Susie Whitacre, Bobbie Ann William, and Monica Lewinsky.
11. Called Bill's women 'Bimbos', created a War Room to combat 'Bimbo Eruptions', and lead the 'Nuts and Slvts' strategy.
12. Tried to blame a 'vast right-wing conspiracy' for her husband turning a 21 year-old intern into his own personal humidor. She also led the campaign to turn Monica into a mentally-ill stalker and sent her Flying Monkeys to throw as much dirt at her as possible. It might have worked but for Bill Clinton's s3men on Ms Lewinsky dress.
13. Fell flat on her face in front of Sergei Lavrov with her 'Reset' button
14. Thought Bashar Assad was a 'Reformer'
15. Crowed 'We came. We saw. He died' after bombing Libya and turning it into a failed state where tribes are fighting one another, ISIS and affiliates of al-Qaeda control vast areas of the eastern part of the country, and has become one of the main human trafficking hubs ferrying hundreds of thousands of 'refugees' into Europe causing destablisation there
16. Ignored myriad requests from Ambassador Christopher Stevens for additional security and resources following an attack on the Benghazi consulate
17. Refused to close the Benghazi consulate even after the British left (following an attempted assassination on its Ambassador) AND the Red Cross fled
18. Was, basically, AWOL during the Benghazi attack
19. Told her daughter (Chelsea is using the alias 'Diane Reynolds), the Prime Minister of Egypt ('We know the attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film. It was a planned attack, not a protest.') and the President of Libya (Clinton acknowledged that the al-Qaida affiliated group Ansar al-Sharia was “claiming responsibility” for the attack) that the attack in Benghazi was a terrorist attack most likely carried out by affiliates of al-Qaeda.
20. Even though she knew (as did I) that the protest at the American Embassy in Cairo had been planned for weeks and its stated purpose was the release of the Blind Sheikh, she had the Embassy staff send out a pre-emptive statement apologizing for the YouTube video.

21. Told Americans over and over again, as well as backing other Administration officials making similar claims, that the attack on the Consulate was not a planned terrorist attack and was the result of a YouTube video that about 323 people in the entire world had seen before they made it go viral.
22. Standing by President Obama as they went on Pakistani television (after forking over $70,000 of our money), she said:
'Let me state very clearly that the United States has absolutely nothing to do with this video. We absolutely reject its contents. America's commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation."
23. Declared that rape accusers 'have a right to be believed', but then, basically, called Eileen Wellstone (rape), Juanita Broddrick (rape), Kathleen Willey (sexual assault and harassment), Connie Hamzy (sexual harassment), Sandra Allen James (sexual assault), Christy Zercher (sexual assault), 22 year-old law student at Yale in 1972 (sexual assault), and a female student at the University of Arkansas in 1974 where Bill Clinton was a lecturer (sexual assault) LIARS.
24. Lied about and repeatedly kept evidence from appropriate government authorities relative to her private email system.
25. Illegally kept an unauthorized, unsecured server outside the proper governmental apparatus through which she received, preserved, maintained, and transferred classified information. In doing so, she almost certainly violated portions of the Espionage Act of 1918, the Public Records Act, rules, regulations, and directives set forth by the President and the Intelligence Community.
26. On at least 8 occasions, she intervened on behalf of multinational corporations, who – coincidentally – made enormous donations to the Clinton Foundation.
27. From 2000-2008, Hillary was acutely aware of the gender pay gap. Alas, instead of toting the Feminist party line on pay parity, she paid her male staff 28% ( $15,700) more than her female staffers.
28. I am a supporter of women and girls, especially those victimized by men. I hate rapists and lawyers that falsely accuse 12 year-old rape victims of mental instability and a past penchant for chasing older men – even when my heroine, Hillary Rodham Clinton – knew that the girl was innocent and had been raped by her client. In fact, I, nobrain, love that Hillary laughed her gigantic arse off the fact that she destroyed a 12 year-old rape victim and set a rapist free to rape again and again and again. (You can only imagine her cackling when her own husband raped or sexually assaulted woman after woman! She must have loved it!)
29. Makes ridiculous and demonstrably false claims like:
'Muslims have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism.'
Which is weird coming from someone who once supported profiling Muslims:
In fact, she once called for profiling Muslims and doing "whatever it takes to keep our people safe."
That's what she told ABC's Sam Donaldson in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.
Donaldson asked: "Let's talk about American life now, though. What happens in the future from the standpoint of the question of security versus relaxation or giving up some of the freedoms that we've enjoyed in this country? How far do we go, for instance, on airline security?"
Clinton responded: "Well, I think everyone recognizes we have to tighten security. We have to do whatever it takes to keep our people safe."
Donaldson asked: "Including profiling, senator?"
Clinton answered: "I think we have to do whatever it takes, Sam. And I believe that, you know, Tuesday changed everything. Tuesday was a day that America has never, ever had to experience. And I hope to heaven that we never have to again. But we are in a war situation, and we're going to have to do things people do in times of war. I just heard your interview with the mayor, and I think he's right to look at examples in history like the Battle of Britain. Many of us have been studying what others did to carry on. And we know that we have to make tradeoffs in convenience, in our freedom of movement, without undercutting or losing our way of life and our values, which I really want to make America special and great. And we can't ever let anyone undermine that."

30. Tells her supporters asinine crap like this:
'Don’t let anybody tell you it’s corporations and businesses create jobs.'
