How can something like this disaster in Benghazi be allowed to die as the White House and the media want it to? That this administration knew what was going on there, and did nothing to help save those people from death, that was a direct result of the White House and the Sec of State incompetence, must be called what it is, criminal negligence.
Then if I can go that far, then the next step is these people are guilty of negligent homicide. Remember Ted Kennedy and Mary Jo his girl friend that died, drowned, as he ran away?
But according to Hillary Clinton, "what difference does it make anyway" that we abandoned all those people to certain death, it's far more important to cover our tracks so we aren't held responsible at the next election.
If you ever wondered just how far the progressives socialist liberal Democrats will go to keep control and power, wonder no further. Remember the motto of the progressives when seeking new avenues of power or keeping the power they have, "by any means necessary". This is not idle talk, this is ideology, this is the religion of the progressives.
Benghazi Lies and Cover-Up? It Does Make a Difference
The attack on the American consulate that left four Americans dead in Benghazi occurred a little more than seven months ago.
Today, we still have few, if any answers, about who attacked the consulate and killed an American ambassador. And we don’t have any answers as to why the American people were lied to over and over again in the wake of the attack.
Late on Tuesday, House Republicans released an interim report on Benghazi, trying to get the answers for the American people on what went wrong.
Compiled by five House committees, the report is damning on a number of levels. It shows that the reduction of security prior to the attacks was approved at the highest levels of the State Department, contrary to the January testimony of Secretary of State Clinton.
In addition, the report finds that the talking points that misled Americans about a video and a protest were edited not to protect classified information but to protect the State Department.
What happened in Benghazi is tragic. Our failure to seek justice and punish those who killed Ambassador Stevens and the three other Americans serving in Libya is reprehensible.
No one at the State Department or in the Obama Administration has been held to account for these failures and lies. No one has even been fired.
But perhaps what is worse is that the Obama administration, their Democratic allies, and the mainstream media have successfully swept the entire scandal under the rug. Outside of Fox News and conservative media, few media outlets seem to care about the entire episode. And as a result, a great deal of Americans are tuned out.
This script has largely played out before with the Fast and Furious scandal. The Obama administration and Attorney General Eric Holder ignored and spun while the mainstream media buried the story. And today, there still are no answers or accountability for the family of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry.
There used to be a day when the American people and media didn't tolerate lying and cover-ups in the highest levels of government. To paraphrase the Secretary of State, it did make a difference. And if we now accept the lies, if we now don't care, it calls into question the entire idea of an accountable government.
