The guidance from ex-Clinton aide Sidney Blumenthal was contained in a memo sent Sept. 13, according to The New York Times. It is the latest documentation effectively contradicting the administration's early narrative that the attack was driven by protests over an anti-Islam Internet video -- and raising questions over why officials stuck to that story for days.
According to the Times, Blumenthal initially blamed "demonstrators" angry over that video for the attacks. But the next day, he sent Clinton a very different memo.
According to the Times, Blumenthal told Clinton the attack was driven by Al Qaeda-tied Ansar al-Shariah members who had planned it for a month and used a protest as cover. He cited "sensitive sources."
"We should get this around asap," Clinton reportedly told an adviser in response.

And this is the New York Times reporting this, not Fox News.
This chick is as dirty of a politician as they come.
Why, because an old friend sent her some unsolicited emails, which by the way, she didn't ignore?

That has a meaning. This man should go to jail.
I think we know who pushed the video now.
It's the kind of question that is going to be impossible for her to answer:
"Mrs Clinton, when you told the families that their fallen had died in response to a video, did you have information then that in fact the attack was a planned terrorist operation?"
Either she can say no, in which case we would know she is lying.
Or she can say yes, in which case we would know that she was lying.

Or she can just keep saying what she always has. That the video story was supplied by the CIA and she was told it was the most accurate report available at the time. How that somehow makes her a traitor I really am at a loss to see. Why would/should she believe an unsolicited Email over the CIA who were in charge of security in Benghazi? And be specific
At which point she can explain why she never changed her story, or informed the families she left hanging.
Families left hanging? How?
