I'm not here to debate Benghazi, I bring it up because there was no criminal act committed yet it took 6 years to investigate. Please try to stay on topic.
Snowflakes continue to twist the entire Benghazi hearings. The original intent of the Benghazi hearings - according to Congress at the time - was to engage in FACT-FINDING, to discover what went wrong, to ensure this type of thing never happened again and no more Americans would ever die again in similar situations.
Obama, Hillary, and Democrats were so worried about themselves and their political futures that they could not even admit that this was A TERRORIST ATTACK - as both the State Dept rep in Tripoli and the CIA chief in Benghazi reported it was within an hour of the attack beginning.
They fought and lied about just about everything to try to prevent from being found even partially at fault.
When terrorist violence has become so bad,
when the growing number of terrorists has gotten so high,
after 2 previous attacks on the US compound,
and when the threats and calls for assassinations have grown to the point where every other nation pulled their people out of the city to protect their people YET THE US STATE DEPARTMENT REFUSED TO DO SO because the President who is up for re-election had made the statement that the war on terror was over and believed pulling our people out would undermine that message - or refused to pull them out for any other reason - NOT pulling them out was the WRONG CALL!
I don't care what you call it - incompetence, poor decision-making, WHATEVER!
Again, the purpose of the Benghazi hearings was to identify what went wrong, what bad decisions were made, what could be done differently....but according to Hillary, Obama, Democrats, and snowflakes NO errors were made, no wrong calls were made, etc - 'shit just happened' with nothing identified that could have done better ... because they wanted to avoid any type of blame.
4 people F*ing died who did not have to!
I did not want Obama impeached over this. I did not want Hillary fired over this. NONE OF THAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THEY WOULD HAVE JUST ADMITTED FROM THE START THIS WAS A TERRORIST ATTACK.
The other day a liberal on the board posted one of the 'political truths' - 'The cover-up is usually worse than what happened'. That is exactly what the Democrats' reaction to the Benghazi terrorist attack showed. Again, 4 Americans died, things could have been done differently, better decisions could have been made, and if they had been - if the threats had been heeded, if we would have pulled our people out when everyone else did, those 4 Americans would still be alive.
Instead of learning what happened, identify what could be done better, and taking those lessons-learned to heart, the entire thing became a politically partisan circus.
I don't think Obama or Hillary did anything illegal (aside from dragging the US to war in Libya illegally), but it did not have to go the way it did.
