i'd like to thank the House GOP for wasting two years and at least $7 million in taxpayer money to basically determine that Hillary Clinton did nothing wrong and that we've already learned the important lessons about how to protect our overseas diplomats. good job, guys!
First of all, the article basically points out that the report DOES support attacks on Clinton:
The document cites an August 2011 memo in which Jake Sullivan, Clinton’s then-deputy chief of staff, said she has had “leadership/ownership/stewardship of this country’s Libya policy from start to finish.”
Clinton “has been a critical voice on Libya in administration deliberations, at NATO, and in contact group meetings—as well as the public face of the U.S. effort in Libya,” Sullivan bragged. “She was instrumental in securing the authorization, building the coalition, and tightening the noose around [Muammar] Gadhafi and his regime.”
And, of course, to go with your typically illiteracy in linking to articles that do not remotely state what you claim they do, we have the hypocrisy of your complaints about $7 million. How much did the Democrats spend on Iran-Contra, or the Valerie Plame bullshit? $7 million is negligible on the scale of nonsense on which the government spends money, and you're an enthusiastic proponent of most of the sort of garbage they do spend it on.
And finally, typical left-wing strawman arguments. The point of the hearings was to investigate the incident, not to determine Hillary Clinton's character. If it HAD been an investigation of Clinton, and turned up nothing, that would STILL not make it a waste, because it would have clarified and firmly established her innocence. But it was an investigation of the entire incident, and did NOT produce the conclusion you claim. And it did turn up the e-mail thing ( "the probe exposed Clinton’s use as Secretary of State of a private server for her email..." ), which a blatantly partisan Democratic party and 90%-democrat-voting media has chosen to downplay and ignore.
Remember back when the attack actually happened, and you guys were all complaining that the GOP was making a stink about nothing just to smear Obama? Now you claim that the whole point of the Benghazi scandal was to smear Hillary. Make up your mind what imaginary agendas you are going to attribute to your targets.
