A Mother’s Complaint About a ‘Cynical Use’ of Benghazi

Continuing to pursue answers to this tragedy with intellectual integrity will help our nation heal. Engaging in partisan rantings is counterproductive and un-American. If Hillary and Barack are innocent, they will be exonerated.

Actually, they have been exonerated....... Quite a few times by Congress, and I am sure there will be a few more times this will be investigated by Congress. Actually, what Congress should look at is why they deeply cut the money for embassy security. That could be a reason Benghazi happened.

:eek:
 
They've supposedly lied, and you haven't been able to prove anything in a court of law. I am aware. Can you tell me why you get to use Steven for political purposes if you so wish?

Will you abide by the wishes of Steven's mother?

:)

Ambassador Stevens asked for how long and how many times for additional security that was rejected by the Hillary State Department?

As much as you want it to, its not going away.

Already addressed in the investigations. If you have an issue with their findings, you are welcomed to start your own super secret internet investigation.

As much as you want it to, its not going away.

It's not going away or anywhere. Your goal to put Clinton behind bars has failed. Will you abide by wishes of Steven's mother? Yes or no question.

The reason Stevens et al. were killed is because they were in a place that every other country's embassies had left due to the violence.

Hillary and Obama wanted to show the world their support of the Arab Spring was working to further their agenda, which it wasn't as evidenced by the violence in Libya.

Good managers know how to operate within a budget. Hillary is obviously not a qualified manager. Getting people over her ineptitude is just one example.

"Its the Republican's fault" is childish, ignorant, and irresponsible.

Did you not understand my last post? No matter how much some including you or his mother want it to go away, it isn't.

It shows how Hillary's incompetence got people killed.

I'm pointing out that it's not going away or anywhere; this is validated by the endless investigations finding absolutely nothing. Now, with that said, will you abide by the wishes of Emb. Steven's mother?

It's a simple yes or no question. :)
 
As I've said, even if somebody as a personal choice took the pledge to never speak of Ambassador Stevens or the other three again, they are now part of history, and they are going to be read about and discussed. I don't think that Ambassador Stevens's mother is so naïve as to think otherwise either.

WOW! Hasn't been a good week for the GOP in what was supposed to be a showcase for the GOP.


Plagerized speech
Featured speaker refusing to endorse the GOP Presidential candidate
Musical artist blasting the convention for unauthorized use of their music
The GOP Presidential candidate yelling for over an hour about how he is the only one
Now Christopher Stevens's family saying layoff

It hasn't been a good year for the GOP since Trump became the presumptive nominee.

Patricia Smith's son Sean was one of four killed in the Sept. 11, 2012. She wants her son's memory to be connected to Hillary, who wouldn't protect the outpost/embassy, lied to her and then called her a liar.

This story still isn't going away, no badly how many Clinton supporters want it to.

Watch it go away, after all, what difference does it make?

People like you will be bitching all the way through Hillary Clinton's first term as President of the United States of America.

Fantastic. I'm going to take away most of your food..... I'm a glutton, 'ya know. If you starve to death, then you are obviously not a qualified manager of your body. :mrgreen:
 
The way that Republicans have tried over and over and over and over and over to exploit Benghazi to make political points is absolutely vile and disgusting....but we've come to expect it of today's GOP. Glad to hear that they are being called out on it.

No...it really shows how your side is willing to spit on the graves of the four people killed if you can gain a political point or two. Absolutely disgusting.
 
Hypocritical leftist drivel

The Obama administration and the Democrats have been politicizing the deaths of the 4 Americans that lost their lives in Benghazi since the night of the attack

Delusional RW nutjobbery. No, they weren't the ones politicizing those deaths. To deny that is to deny reality and the Kabuki theater that was 33 hearings, 12 published reports, 50 briefings and over 70,000 pages of documents in the longest congressional 'investigation' in US history. Which the republicans themselves admitted was purely for their own politics.
Instead of the truth Americans got a bull **** made up narrative about a protest over a Youtube video because the truth that close to a Presidential election was too much of a Political risk to the low life in the oval office

Newp. Clinton was found to have committed no wrongdoing. By the republicans.
And the Democrats never stopped lying to us and to the family members who lost their loved ones in Benghazi.

Good to know you dont mind being lied to as long as its a Democrat feeding you those lies, but the rest of us have higher standards

Standards? LOLOL! That's a good one.

I get you people are easy to manipulate, easily entertained and easy to lie too, but dont project your naivete and your lack of integrity onto the rest of us.

Congressional oversight without access to subpoenaed emails. Emails that were kept on a home brew server, emails that Hillary deleted before " handing over all work related documents to the State Dept " Again, just because your gullible enough to believe Hillary's lies doesn't mean the rest of us are.

Newp. Clinton was found to have committed no wrongdoing.

Yea, she did " nothing wrong "

" For example, seven e-mail chains concern matters that were classified at the Top Secret/Special Access Program level when they were sent and received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending e-mails about those matters and receiving e-mails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that conversation. None of these e-mails should have been on any kind of unclassified system…"

Only a very small number of the e-mails containing classified information bore markings indicating the presence of classified information. But even if information is not marked “classified” in an e-mail, participants who know or should know that the subject matter is classified are still obligated to protect it."

Yawn. That doesn't amount to them polticizing the deaths or even approach what the Repubs did. But then, no one expects a True Believer to face reality, and you never disappoint in that regard.

To say nothing of the fact that the leader and organizer of the attack, when taken into custody, blamed the video. Do try and keep up, hmmmm?

Which has zero to do with whether she politicized the deaths in Benghazi, which she simply didn't.

Your desperation is almost palpable.

Good luck with your magical thinking!
 
So, she's cool with the lies about the youtube video? And the fact that Obama went to bed? And that they didn't even try to help them because it could have hurt Obama's chances at reelection?

She doesn't want to hear the truth, if it's for political gain, but she is good with lies for political gain? Pretty sad.

That is actually a pretty despicable thing to say about a grieving mother whose son was killed serving his country, and is now being used as a political tool without the family's permission and totally against their wishes.
 
As I've said, even if somebody as a personal choice took the pledge to never speak of Ambassador Stevens or the other three again, they are now part of history, and they are going to be read about and discussed. I don't think that Ambassador Stevens's mother is so naïve as to think otherwise either.

She has never asked that her son's sacrifice be erased from history. She has repeatedly asked that his death not be used as political propaganda, and instead saw at least one GOP tv commercial with photos of her son and a "voice" attributed to him blaming Hillary Clinton for letting him die, and has watched the GOP repeatedly use his death in speeches and as a mainstay of their convention. Going against the pointed and repeated requests of a grieving mother in order to further a partisan agenda surely cannot be okay with you.
