The Dems should just give them Benghazi.

God, Charles, you're so obtuse. No wonder you follow the @IngrahamAngle.

I really wish Hills would say something like: "How dare you use the death of my people to further your shitty agenda. You are all terrible human beings. Sometimes shit happens to good people that work in bad places. These people gave their lives to their couuntry. Go fuck yourself."

Bush gave us the World Trade Center disaster and then the Iraq war disaster which cost us trillions. Republicans are petty pricks.

Yep. plenty of real war scandals in this and the last Admin.

But it's their favorite exotic word(s) of the day. Used to be Khalid Sheik Mohammed.

And don't forget the 53 Americans who died in attacks on foreign U.S. diplomatic outposts under the GW Bush administration. Obama's influence is indeed far-reaching.

Exactly, @6.

Republicans can keep Benghazi, the second they acknowledge Karachi, Damascus, Riyadh, Taskkent, Jeddah and Sana'a.

Benghazi had some "wow that was not a good idea in retrospect" aspects. Not learning and swaggering is s bad idea.

Doing that is a big part of how the republicans got to be the party they are today. We can't afford both major parties being that irresponsible.

Fox will be dicks, it's what they do.

This is not about Benghazi. It's a play by Republicans to tarnish a Clinton run for the presidency in 2016. It's a play by Democrats to inoculate Clinton for a run for the presidency in 2016. Give them Benghazi indeed.

They're doing it so their mouth-breathing followers will copy them and also repeat it.

Their followers are very simple-minded dullards. This is the only way they can be trained.

There is no there, there.

I cannot believe this gets any legs.

"The Dems should just give them Benghazi."

In good time they will. It took the Republicans 18 months to "give" the Democrats Watergate.

Hillary is scheduled to testify, and and gladly will. Until then I reserved judgement.

@14: Oh she did, lots of material to digest.

Or, HRC could offer them a deal: "Show me Ted Nugent's draft board records and shit-stained blue jeans, and I'll admit that Benghazi is a city in Libya."

Never give in, Charles. Not an inch for those knuckle-draggers.

Can we just send them to Benghazi?

Doesn't matter - they collectively will always be known as the party in power when the worlds worst terrorist attack occurred on American soil.

Let her "tweet" all she wants - she has got a leg to stand on.

I seem to remember that one of the reasons there wasn't enough security at Benghazi (and still isn't at other diplomatic sites) is that the Republicans have repeatedly reduced the amount budgeted for diplomatic security when reconciliation comes along. I wish Clinton and the rest of the Democrats would bring this up forcefully and repeatedly.

Did the Democrats make this much fuss over the well-documented intelligence failures of the Bush administration that allowed the original 9/11 to happen, where 3,000 American citizens died? And after which the National Security Adviser who overlooked these warnings was promoted to Secretary of State?
