So why aren't you guys p.o.'d about this one?????

[chick_bleeds_carolina_blue]

The republicans have wasted at least 7 million tax dollars trying to "get something on Hillary" and my good buddy Trey leads up this genius of an investigation and comes up with nothing (he's a joke too!), and you guys are not pissed at all about all that wasted money? Money that could have helped a lot of veterans... money that could have helped senior citizens barely getting by on social security? I don't get it! I am pissed about it. I don't like the witch either but I KNEW they were just wasting time and money on this witch hunt and now we get to pay for their ego-driven competition trying to essentially prove one side is more crooked than the other.... anyone with a brain can see both sides are and they don't give two squats about anyone of us. But please, continue to support those cults! Carry on.

Is that for real? Gowdy and others have uncovered plenty on that witch. What about the admin claiming it wasn't a terrorist attack yet Hillary calls it that very thing in an email to her daughter? That's weird.

And that's just a drop in the bucket. The Benghazi committee has been effective. And $7 million, please...that's not even a penny in govt money.

and for the record, I do not support that witch either but damn... they need to just stop! Everyone knows she is owned by the banks and they are going to prop her up until she is in the office so why waste this money knowing you cannot win when it comes to a Clinton. This is just a tug of war between two political parties trying to see who can outdo the other. Even the sister of Ambassador Stevens says she does not blame Hillary for this. Had the republicans actually funded for more security over there, this might not have happened but they would not approve it so really, who is to blame if we have to blame someone???

And I have NO DOUBT that all the Hillary haters will either ignore this or find a way to defend this waste of money, but you can bet your butt if the shoe were on the other foot and the Dems were investigation and Republican for the exact same thing, they would be thinking the opposite!

THAT is what bugs me.... this back and forth blame game for the same idiotic issues that take place all the time, except the dime it falls on depends on who is in the office. And we wonder why the rest of the world thinks we are stupid over here?????? I wonder.....hmmm

Blatant negligence that enabled terrorists killing of American soldiers is an "idiotic issue"? I'm not even bringing up how awful and disrespectful she was towards the families afterwards. Let's just discuss her downright incompetence.

Ok, your talking about the Benghazi thing. Clinton has so many things going on right now I wasn't sure what you were talking about. I thought the investigation needed to be done so we could figure out what actually happened. The first thing that was put out there was a lie (you tube video), so I thought it was definitely something that should be investigated. When your first public announcement about something is an outright lie, it smells of a cover up. I didn’t care who was responsible, I was more interested in finding out what happened so it could be prevented in the future. Not sure why you are blaming the republicans for funding. This quote comes from one of your own links

“The Independent Accountability Review Board concluded that the Special Mission in Benghazi had inadequate security because of “ystemic failures and leadership and management deficiencies at senior levels within two bureaus of the State Department.” The Board found several factors that led to support gaps, including a misplaced reliance on local security forces, short-term staffing challenges, and the temporary nature of the facility. Multiple Congressional investigations have confirmed these findings.”

Doesn’t say anywhere that the republicans were to blame. Try harder to cover up your own bias next time. Speaking of bias, you should probably do a better job of picking your sources.

I don't like her either. She's scary!! My point is the whole waste of money just to blame. Why didn't this investigation begin immediately after it happened. Why wait until she is running for office? Why wasn't the funding approved for extra security for the ambassador and others when they knew they were in danger??? Why did congress deny that?

Well, I'm not saying that what Hillary did is less dangerous, or equal to, what Bill got the pitchforks for. But, this is political posturing regardless. If Hillary had committed a felony, she'd be covered because of her status. If George Bush had, he would be covered, too. People like them are above the laws that we are subject.

Did you read the report at all? There is plenty of her failure in there. Read it and get back to us. If it doesn't change your mind it's because you support her and don't really care about the truth. And I think we already know what side you are on, your statements here notwithstanding.

I'm not on "a side." Both "sides" suck!

 

[chick_bleeds_carolina_blue]

I support not wasting money. That 7 million should have been used a long time ago to protect Stevens since it was known they were in danger not later. She should be incarcerated for probably a lot more than we even know about but I KNOW she will never spend a day paying for anything. So why waste the money trying? It won't happen.

You know you're struggling to find something when you have to use a discrepancy in phrasing between the official statement of the administration, and a private email.

I don't support her at all. Actually I hate her more than any other candidate. But the federal government does not commission investigations to reveal incompetence. It commissions investigations to reveal evidence of criminal wrongdoing. The argument that the Benghazi investigation was appropriate because it revealed "her failures" is completely insane. You're basically saying that its totally okay for the government to conduct partisan investigations to advance their political agenda, as long as it actually works.

Your gullibility has reached a new height in believing the main stream media. There was plenty uncovered on hillary. 1. for nine months the CIA had been requesting security at the embassy and told them their position was untenable. 2. Not supplying security was a purely political move because Libya was suppose to be hillary's crowning achievement as Sec of State and Obama claiming ISIS was under control. but the situation was actually made more unstable and worse by tumbling Qhadafi. 3. The brave defenders of the embassy were sacrificed so as not to offend the Libyan government. They actually wanted U.S. soldiers to go in with civilian clothing on. WTF was hillary at during the attack she was allegedly the Sec of State and should have been monitoring every move. Her old decrepit azz was probably asleep. She LIED to the families of the victims and to the American people. Chick you prove yourself every day to be one of the most uninformed voters alive. SMMFH. hillary is a liar and completely incompetent leader. obama looks like George Washington compared to her. Congrats on embarrassing yourself again.

Uh no, she did act irresponsibly when lives were at stake. There is not one thing wrong with investigating why. If we can prevent this type of idiocy in the future we should. But I don't expect you to care.

Your investigation must not have been conducted very well if you need her to admit to a crime to convict her of it.

It has been clear for sometime that regardless of how poorly she handled the situation, no evidence of criminal wrongdoing was going to surface. This has been a partisan investigation and you and I and the entire rest of the damn country all know it. Those Republicans that pushed this don't give a single shit about saving lives in the future, they care about winning the next election. I didn't hear a single word out of any of them after any of the embassy attacks during the Bush administration.

I'm gullible???? She must have every damn one of those guys on that committee by the balls then because they accomplished absolutely zero, nada, NOTHING other than running up a 7 million dollar bill because her ass will be sworn in in about six months from now and NO I am not happy about it.

The republicans have wasted at least 7 million tax dollars

I think calling this a drop in the bucket would be an exaggeration that would imply its 1000 times larger than it actually is. 7 million dollars?!?!?! Compared to the billions upon billions of wasted money elsewhere in the federal spending? 7 million bucks would allow what - 2 or 3 more families that don't want to work to collect welfare checks for the next couple years?

I'm not supporting nor condoning the investigation you referenced (honestly I didn't even bother to read the links) - but complaining about 7 million dollars in the federal spending is beyond comical.

 

[tarheel0910]

Flaws in the overall system were found, which lets us know what needs to change to help prevent this from happening again. I would say saving lives is a pretty big accomplishment. That's why I wanted the investigation. We need to know how to prevent things like this from happening in the future.

Let's also investigate why Congress would not approve funding to send extra security to help those guys when they KNEW they were in danger.... Let's investigate why GWBush allowed so much to be wasted looking for weapons of mass destruction, when none were found, I don't even want to know what that tab came to!

I haven't heard that congress turned them down. In one of my earlier posts I pointed out that in one of the links you posted it didn't say anything about funding. Maybe I missed something. I do know that Hillary has said multiple times that the state department never turned down a request from them.

Let's investigate why GWBush allowed so much to be wasted looking for weapons of mass destruction, when none were found, I don't even want to know what that tab came to!

This is an apples to oranges comparison. There are so many moving parts with what happened in this situation. However, if we are going to investigate it, how about we start at the beginning instead of starting with Bush. This started long before Bush got to office.

She didn't do her ****ing job. I'm really not sure how you convict a Secretary of State for anything, Hell It's almost impossible to fire a normal federal employee even if there is criminal wrong doing usually just get sent home with pay. So you can read the Republican's minds? Well hillary proved she didn't care by lying to the families to their faces.

If you're okay with them wasting 8, 9, 10 million dollars, then why are you upset about average citizens milking the system? They're just mimicking the government that you seem to have no problem with when they waste money. AT least the welfare moochers are using it for a good time.
