Benghazi Investigation Off the Rails
The biggest travesty was that Clinton and Obama were both determined to avoid blame and help the political fortunes of Obama in regaining the presidency, even if it involved lying to the public about the murders of four brave Americans, as well as to their family members.
So outrageous was the lie that as more facts became known, a House Select Committee on Benghazi was formed and an investigation of the event begun, headed by Congressman Trey Gowdy.
And though Clinton’s duplicity was clearly evident the Democrats, terrified that their 2016 presidential candidate would be destroyed in the process, went on full personal attack against Republican committee members as they had done to protect President Bill Clinton so many years before by impugning the integrity and honesty of Congress. And then they found their champion.
Bradley Podliska, an Air Force Reserve major and a former staffer on the House Select Committee on Benghazi, claims he was fired from the panel for promoting a broad, objective investigation into the deadly 2012 attack.
He says Republicans on the panel, by contrast, wanted to shift the focus chiefly onto Clinton after reports emerged revealing she’d used a personal email account in her role as secretary of State — allegations the committee vigorously disputes.
Democrats, who have long-accused the Republicans of prolonging the investigation solely to undermine Clinton’s presidential chances, wasted no time seizing on the new allegations as affirmation that their charges ring true.”It’s been clear that Secretary Clinton has been the true target of this investigation, and the Republican whistle blower who has come forward only provides further evidence of what has been long evident,” Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), senior Democrat on the Intelligence Committee and a member of the Benghazi panel, said Saturday in a statement. “It’s time to shut down the Benghazi Select Committee.”
The Democrats clearly want the committee investigation terminated, and they absolutely want to distract the public from knowing just how dishonest and cruel Hillary is, evidenced by her crass, bald-faced lying to the victims families. So they have found a likely patsy in Podliska, who was terminated for cause when he leaked information and tried “to develop and direct Committee resources to a PowerPoint ‘hit piece’ on members of the Obama Administration — including Secretary Clinton — that bore no relationship whatsoever to the Committee’s current investigative tone, focus or investigative plan.”
Podliska plans to sue Gowdy and the committee to get his job back. And Clinton, like a cat with nine lives, keeps coming back, no matter what outrage she commits or what preposterous pack of lies she spins. And though the world has plenty of untrustworthy souls, the wonder is that Democrats and others are so willing to hear her and know how incredibly dishonest and self serving she is and to overlook that and actually invite her back to lead the country. That is truly unbelievable.
