Video Killed The Politics Star

Hillary Clinton testified yesterday before a congressional committee investigating her actions - or inaction - during the 2012 Benghazi attacks. Mrs. Clinton treated the matter with all the respect and seriousness of someone doing stand-up comedy.

Republican Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan took issue with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton‘s comment that protests had erupted in both Cairo, Egypt and Benghazi, Libya, citing evidence from the House Select Committee’s investigation stating that no protest of any kind had occurred in Benghazi. He then went on to quote from various State Department spokespersons who, in the weeks following the Sept. 11, 2012 attack, claimed that the incident in Benghazi was linked to the Cairo-based protest, which was a reaction to an offensive online video.

“Calling it an attack is like saying the sky is blue. Of course it was an attack! The statement you sent out was a statement on Benghazi, and you say ‘vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material on the Internet.’ If that’s not pointing at its motive being the video, I don’t know what is.”

Clinton's retort was as flippant as you would expect.

“I wrote a whole chapter about this in my book, Hard Choices. I’d be glad to send it to you, congressman.”

A glib administration has been running this country into the ground for seven years. Do we really want another puerile president leading this country to ruin?
