just sent out this statement with Senator Kelly Ayotte and John McCain about the attack on our Consulate in Benghazi.

"We have just learned that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has claimed full responsibility for any failure to secure our people and our Consulate in Benghazi prior to the attack of September 11, 2012. This is a laudable gesture, especially when the White House is trying to avoid any responsibility whatsoever.

"However, we must remember that the events of September 11 were preceded by an escalating pattern of attacks this year in Benghazi, including a bomb that was thrown into our Consulate in April, another explosive device that was detonated outside of our Consulate in June, and an assassination attempt on the British Ambassador. If the President was truly not aware of this rising threat level in Benghazi, then we have lost confidence in his national security team, whose responsibility it is to keep the President informed. But if the President was aware of these earlier attacks in Benghazi prior to the events of September 11, 2012, then he bears full responsibility for any security failures that occurred. The security of Americans serving our nation everywhere in the world is ultimately the job of the Commander-in-Chief. The buck stops there.

"Furthermore, there is the separate issue of the insistence by members of the Administration, including the President himself, that the attack in Benghazi was the result of a spontaneous demonstration triggered by a hateful video, long after it had become clear that the real cause was a terrorist attack. The President also bears responsibility for this portrayal of the attack, and we continue to believe that the American people deserve to know why the Administration acted as it did."

Nope,

Obama is either going on the view or playing golf. He isn't fit to be president.

 

[ScienceRocks]

Time to bring Obama, Clinton, etc to congress to be investigated. Impeachment papers maybe neassury.

 

[OKTexas]

We can give them all their walking papers on Nov 6, that's the cheapest easiest way.

 

[SniperFire]

Why are you always lying to us, Mr. President?

Why are you always lying to us, Mr. President?

He doesn't have America's interest at heart.

 

[blastoff]

So Hillary takes full responsibility for the ineptitude of the State Department, and do the idiots on the left actually think the buck stops there or with her boss, the guy she works for, the Commander-in-Chief, Barry Obama?

Well, we know what they're hoping for. Nice try, gang, but that noose in around the president's neck. And it seems to be getting tighter, or else Hillary would have stayed mum.
