Another GOP congressman says Benghazi panel meant to hurt Clinton

McCarthy now Hanna

Another Republican lawmaker says the House Select Committee on Benghazi is meant to go after former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Rep. Richard Hanna, R-New York, said Wednesday on New York's' WIBX 950, "Sometimes the biggest sin you can commit in D.C. is to tell the truth."

"This may not be politically correct, but I think that there was a big part of this investigation that was designed to go after people and an individual, Hillary Clinton," said Hanna, who is not a member of the committee. "After what Kevin McCarthy said, it's difficult to accept at least a part of it was not. I think that's the way Washington works. But you'd like to expect more from a committee that's spent millions of dollars and tons of time."

Hanna may be a Rep. but he has nothing to do with the committee. He's talking out of his ass....

I think he just wants some attention.....he's not feeling the respect he thinks he deserves for the GOP bigs..

His comments about the committee carry about as much weight as Elk's would.

So that's what he thinks, so does Hillary. We already know Hillary should be the target, she was in charge of the State Department when it happened, she denied them extra protection, she had everyone stand by as they were killed she then tried to cover it all up...so why is investigating her a sham?
#63566
Elk and Clown have never believed what Republicans say....

suddenly they believe these malcontents who have no credibility at all.

One of them got fired for doing exactly what he now accuses the others of doing....and

the other has never been part of the committee and has no first hand knowledge.
#63569
silly, why is it you can't make a post without making up stupid shit about me.

I haven't said a word about whether I believe them or not.
It's irrelevant. Believing them or not doesn't change the fact that the hearings are a sham, which is the only thing I commented on.
They're only telling us what we already knew, so it isn't a matter of believing THEM. You made it up.
I don't give them a second thought.

The whole point is Republicans like you should finally start to believe what everyone with any brains already knew; the pathetic partisan truth about your own kind.
If you won't believe the Democrats and you won't believe your own party, then who do you believe?
Is there ANYONE that can penetrate your thick skull with reason or truth?

So the 4 men who fought in Benghazi committed suicide?

Including the ambassador?

Look, we know Hillary and Obama lied about Benghazi and we know why.

The election was looming and Obama had said approving the hit on bin Laden had quelled terrorism, which was "on the run."

As Hillary and Obama were told by Panetta, Benghazi was "an attack by terrorists."

So they lied.
#63577
You keep droning crap like that thirty or forty times, johnny, but it doesn't mean a thing.

Even if everything you say about Benghazi were true, it still wouldn't have changed a single vote in the election.
It wouldn't have changed yours and it wouldn't have changed mine, nor anyone else's here. So what puts that nonsense into your head? What evidence that it would change anyone's vote have you stumbled across and hidden from the world?

Why the Republicans investigating this weren't able to find any wrongdoing while you seem to have it all figured out, I guess that means the Republicans are just incompetent.

So yeah, let's vote THEM in next time.
#63578
Look, we know Hillary and Obama lied about Benghazi and we know why.
We also know why they allowed those in the embassy to be killed, to send in troops and engage in a fire fight with the hundreds of terrorists would have proven Obama and Hillary had lied about the war on terror being over...plus God forbid an "innocent" Benghazi citizen get killed in the fight. They weighed that and chose to let our people die, then they lied about it being just a protest that got out of control. Allowing Americans to die to protect your reputation, is not OK.
#63583
When the embassy called for help, a rapid deployment force loaded up onto aircraft but were told to stand down. Obama the next day said there was no troops sent because there was nothing they could have done. The CIA and the military know that was a lie, imagine a police agency or a fire department declining to respond to a 911 call because it would probably be to late by the time they got there. Ever since that day I lost the last shred of respect I had left for Obama and Hillary. I also lost respect for the military commander that followed the State Department's and White House's demands that he stand his troops down.
#63585
Yep, you try to help, and there's never any guarantee the help will be on time.

But you try.

If the present president were Repub and the same thing had been done, it would still be utterly indefensible to allow 4 brave men to fight, to expect a rescue try, and to be abandoned in Benghazi to die.

And then to lie about it afterward for political purposes.
#63590
So according to Forbes, Hillary will be telling the truth....when?

Millions of dollars, 7 sham investigations later and nothing on Hillary?

This is already the longest ongoing investigation in the history of the nation which has already turned out to be an utter farce perpetrated by the GOP to be a political attack against a rival.
#63594
When people say the investigation is long, that's dishonest.

The investigations were made long by lack of cooperation from Hillary, Rice, and Obama, and of course by Hillary's destruction of 32,000 emails.

Look, I'd like Hillary to have quickly been revealed to have been telling the truth.

What was the precise timeline of Obama's actions on 9/11/12? Where was he? Why wasn't he in the Situation Room? What did he do before he got on a plane the next morning to go to Vegas for a fundraiser?

Nobody can answer these questions, which suggests stonewalling, which suggests a coverup, which suggests a pack of lies about 4 dead in Benghazi.

Was Panetta lying when he said he told the White House on the evening of Sept 11 that it was -- his words -- "an attack by terrorists"?
#63603
How many investigations will there be? Is eight enough?

The GOP already admitted that the Benghazi investigations were a politically motivated sham. It's criminal that the GOP funnels away millions of taxpayer dollars to an "investigation" which turned out to be nothing more than a taxpayer funded GOP campaign against Hillary.

The Benghazi investigation is already the longest in the history of the nation, surpassing that of Watergate investigation.

The GOP has no vision for the nation. No jobs or economic initiatives that will put people back to work. Apparently scoring political points is their agenda...not the needs of the American people.

No the GOP has not!.......It's fishy that Kevin McCarthy rolls into DC.....throws Hillary a lifeline.....

announces he doesn't want to be Speaker.... and then leaves town.....

I bet with a nice fat contribution from the Clinton Foundation.

Yes....Bubba once hinted the Presidency was not just going to handed to Hillary.

Saying it over and over doesn't make it true. Still waiting on an example of the GOP calling it a sham.
“Everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right? But we put together a Benghazi special committee. What are her numbers today?”

Where does that say the Benghazi investigation is a sham?

What he said is true, liberals thought Hillary was unbeatable then light was shined on her Benghazi lies and she's lost support due to the truth coming out.

Again I dare you to give me one example of the GOP calling the investigation a sham. What I've heard is that the investigation has resulted in information coming out that is bringing her down.

The GOP has admitted the investigation was a complete sham.

The GOP has admitted in their own investigation that there was no wrongdoing by any Obama Administration official(s). When there was no finding of wrongdoing then Justme claims that Hillary was a liar. That's a lie and another sham claim. All investigations have cleared Hillary of wrongdoing. So now the GOP has launched investigation number eight. So is eight enough? When does this sham and waste of tax payer dollars ever end?

Got any links to prove that Hillary was lying?
#63632
As usual, what Elkin says is not true.

Why was the ambassador in Benghazi? Nobody knows, but perhaps it related to arms to Syria?

Why did Obama and Hillary lie about a video? Probably because the election was looming.

Why did Hillary delete 32,000 emails?

Why did she look Sean Smith's mother in the eye and tell the lie about a video?

Two weeks later at the UN, Obama was STILL trying to spread the fairy tale about a video.
