Now it's Benghazi attack cover-up Part 3 (or is it 4): Mrs. Bill Clinton falls on her sword:
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton assumed responsibility on Monday for the security failures that resulted in the Sept. 11 attacks on the U.S. consulate in Libya that killed four Americans – but said the “fog of war” led to the White House’s shifting explanations for the assault.
"I take responsibility," Clinton told CNN after she arrived for a visit in Lima, Peru. The interview was the first Clinton had given about the assault in Benghazi that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and four other U.S. citizens.
The Obama administration initially attributed the attacks to anti-Muslim sentiment toward a film made by a California real estate developer. It later became clear that intelligence officials suspected that the assault was terrorism, and officials now have linked the attack to al-Qaida cells in North Africa.
Beating back attacks of a cover-up by the White House, Clinton attributed the administration's shifting story to "the confusion you get in any type of combat situation."
"Remember, this was an attack that went on for hours," Clinton told Fox News, also in Lima. "There had to be a lot of sorting out. ... Everyone said, ‘Here's what we know, subject to change.’"
So Mrs. Bill Clinton went to a friendly news organization and confessed: The first sentence should read "Mrs. Bill Clinton assumed the position and took the fall for Barack" who is ultimately the one responsible for this catastrophic failure and resulting Watergate-style cover-up. And did you notice, the word "war" was used? Thought this was just a "bump in the road" on the way to blissful peace in the Middle East.
I'll get back to you when the NEXT version of this cover-up breaks.
