Letter: Benghazi Q&A about dragging Clinton down
Op-Ed · November 05, 2015


What has been learned about Benghazi is that the entire intent of the hearings rests on a lie — it isn’t about what Republicans have been lying that it is about.


As Republican House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy let slip, it has been a strategy to bring down Hillary Clinton’s poll numbers.

Thus from start to no-finish Benghazi has been a fib profusely dripping from the lips of some lying Republicans attempting to paint another person as a liar as they lie in pretense that they are really interested in national security.

This is an inane twist to an old homiletic: “you’re doing as we say (lying) and not as we’re doing (lying).” And in issue of some other old bits of description, the whole pot of Republican confabulators attempt to call the kettle (little miss teapot Clinton) black and only end up making her look as pure as the driven snow — although she is just one of us fallible humans.

Republicans addled by being so far over their head in a swamp of their own hypocrisy insist on pumping out a stream of more of the same.

Beyond this being a REAL BENGHAZI for the Republicans, the fact for the nation is our need to be joining together to move forward up and on to ever higher ground in the best of times for us all — thus so with a person like Bernie Sanders as president.

However, this pack of insistent Republican liars may well get Hillary Clinton elected and she is going to be their very worst nightmare that sends them off into a reeking black lagoon full of the garbage they keep spewing.

Meanwhile, entertaining any further consideration of House Republicans on the immorality of lying is akin to commiserating with the devil over the wages of sin.
