<p>And she should, at minimum, be fired, impeached or even tried criminally.</p>
<p>From the <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/apr/23/house-gop-administration-blew-benghazi-response/"><em>WashingtonTimes.com</em></a>:</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em><a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/house/"><span style="color: #008000;">House</span></a> Republicans have concluded that Secretary of State <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/hillary-rodham-clinton/"><span style="color: #008000;">Hillary Rodham Clinton</span></a> was responsible for cutting security at the consulate in Benghazi ahead of last year’s attack there, and that the administration lied about why it downplayed terrorism as the cause of the assault.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>A new report — the result of months of investigation by five different <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/house/"><span style="color: #008000;">House</span></a> committees — says there was plenty of intelligence that presaged the attack, but the <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/department-of-state/"><span style="color: #008000;">State Department</span></a> and President Obama failed to heed the warnings or give the <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/united-states-department-of-defense/"><span style="color: #008000;">Defense Department</span></a> the authority to respond to such an attack.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>In the most damning finding, <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/house/"><span style="color: #008000;">House</span></a> Republicans said Mr. Obama and his team lied about the attacks afterward, first by blaming mob violence spawned by an anti-Muslim video, and then wrongly saying it had misled the public because it was trying to protect an <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/federal-bureau-of-investigation/"><span style="color: #008000;">FBI</span></a> investigation.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>“This progress report reveals a fundamental lack of understanding at the highest levels of the <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/department-of-state/"><span style="color: #008000;">State Department</span></a> as to the dangers presented in Benghazi, <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/libya/"><span style="color: #008000;">Libya</span></a>, as well as a concerted attempt to insulate the <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/department-of-state/"><span style="color: #008000;">Department of State</span></a> from blame following the terrorist attacks,” the <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/republican-party/"><span style="color: #008000;">GOP</span></a> investigation concluded in its 46-page report.</em></span></p>
<p>These are what I would call “facts in evidence.” And yet, what is the bottom line? It is this:</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>Four</strong></em></span> Americans are dead:</p>
<ul>
<li><a title="J. Christopher Stevens" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Christopher_Stevens">J. Christopher Stevens</a>,<br />
<a title="United States Ambassador to Libya" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Ambassador_to_Libya">U.S. Ambassador to Libya</a></li>
<li><a title="Sean Smith (diplomat)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Smith_%28diplomat%29">Sean Smith</a>, <a title="United States Foreign Service" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Foreign_Service">U.S. Foreign Service</a><br />
<a class="mw-redirect" title="Information Management" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_Management">Information Management</a> Officer</li>

<li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Benghazi_attack#Tyrone_S._Woods">Tyrone S. Woods</a></li>
</ul>
<p>And yet Hillary Clinton shrieked back to her critics: “With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans. If it was because of a protest or if it was because guys out for a walk decided to go kill some Americans. What difference does it make?”</p>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/t6rj9ms07l4" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<p><a href="http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/archives/6542">As I wrote here</a>, Secretary Clinton, it makes all the difference in the world. You ignorant — I can’t even write a word, now, appropriately describing your venality, your decadence, your arrogance, your caustic dismissal of four American deaths.</p>
<p>Yet, despite this information being out for two days now, do you see the information splayed across the front pages of newspapers or on the various television channels?</p>
<p>No. They have <a href="http://newsbusters.org/blogs/scott-whitlock/2013/04/24/nbc-abc-ignore-blistering-house-report-placing-blame-benghazi-obama-">purposely ignored the report</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/04/23/house-report-on-fatal-benghazi-attack-faults-state-department-for-security/">FoxNews.com writes</a>:</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>The terror attack on a U.S. outpost in Libya was preceded by security cutbacks authorized at the “highest levels” of the State Department, and the Obama administration’s explanation in the immediate aftermath of the fatal assault was altered to protect the agency, House Republicans said in a report on the issue released Tuesday.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>The 43-page report is the work of five House committees and concludes that decisions to scale back security at the Benghazi, Libya, outpost went all the way up to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.</em></span></p>
<p><a href="http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Hillary-Clinton-Old-and-Tired.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7983" alt="Hillary Clinton Old and Tired" src="http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Hillary-Clinton-Old-and-Tired.jpg" width="640" height="346" srcset="http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Hillary-Clinton-Old-and-Tired.jpg 640w, http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Hillary-Clinton-Old-and-Tired-300x162.jpg 300w, http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Hillary-Clinton-Old-and-Tired-500x270.jpg 500w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /></a>Ladies and gentlemen, you can’t get any more clear or succinct than that. And yet, most American’s haven’t a clue that a damning finger is now <em>officially</em> indicating that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton LIED under oath.</p>
<p>And, further damning:</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>A Republican aide told Fox News that Rice’s script was “altered” to protect the State Department for the inadequate security.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>A source told Fox News the leaders of the House committees on Armed Services, Foreign Affairs, Intelligence, Judiciary and Oversight have seen the emails about changing the talking points but are still trying to acquire them.</em></span></p>
<p>But the final point:</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>Clinton, testifying before Congress in the final weeks of her tenure, took responsibility for the department’s missteps and failures leading up to the assault. But she insisted that requests for more security at the diplomatic mission in Benghazi didn’t reach her desk, and reminded lawmakers that they have a responsibility to fund security-related budget requests.</em></span></p>
<p>A LIE. An out-and-out bald-faced LIE.</p>
<p>And guess what?</p>
<p>She will skate and Obaka will skate and the Demorats will skate. Because we no longer have a media willing to support the country in which in resides.</p>
<p>We are Rome writ large and moribund.</p>
