When questioned by CNN's Brianna Keiler about deleting emails Clinton replied that she had done what other Secretaries of State before her had done. Keilar replied, "They used a personal server, and while facing a subpoena, deleted emails from them?” Clinton's retort? “You know, you’re starting with so many assumptions," Clinton responded. "I’ve never had a subpoena, there’s nothing -- again, let’s take a deep breath here."
Gosh the nerve of that Keiler! Asking Hillary a hardball question like that!
Clinton has told so many lies about what led up to Benghazi...how her State Department reacted to the crisis as it unfolded...and how they did their best to try and coverup the debacle and blame it on a You Tube video that her credibility is in tatters at this point.
When you're a liberal and you can't get CNN to play ball with you...then you KNOW that you're in deep shit!
The problem with the OP's narrative is that we now know the You Tube video indeed was used as the catalyst for that specific attack. Seven different congressional investigations all admitted as much as well as clearing Secretary Clinton and President Obama of any wrongdoing.
No previous Secretary of State ever saved personal e-mails. God knows what they ever said in any of them that could be construed as "in the public interest." Who cares what these people say? It's what they
do that matters. In putting together his options, we learned for a fact that our leading General in charge of AFRICOM at the time expressly gave the President the advice to stand down in Benghazi, swallow the loss, but don't risk losing any others (which would have been done by chopper at night).
I think that was sensible advice. You know, Democrats used to be the more weak-kneed party on foreign policy, but that's just not true anymore. This Benghazi thing with many of our Republican friends reveals how fragile they are about something that every reasonable adult understands perfectly well, which is that sometimes bad shit happens. Bad shit happens to kill innocent Americans abroad under every President. There's really no need to remain so melodramatic as to blame your own country for Benghazi happening instead of blaming the people who actually did it.
