3 AM and Hillary picks up the phone



Obama, Benghazi, and the Blame Game  Obama blames Republicans for their spending priorities, but what about this Democrat choice? "As was pointed out in the hearings, obviously the State Department has their priorities a little out of order, since they’re spending huge sums of money on electric cars in Europe, while neglecting to provide needed security personnel in the Middle East and North Africa."

Hillary Apologizes for Benghazi, But Where’s Obama?   "This is nothing short of disastrous for President Obama. After dodging responsibility for the Benghazi attack for over a month, pointing fingers at everything from the State Department to the intelligence community, the White House is outclassed by…Hillary Clinton. By taking the blame now, Hillary effectively 1.) Undermined Obama’s leadership, 2.) Put pressure on him right before a major debate to take the heat:"...  

Hillary's Price   "Rest assured that Secretary of State Hillary Rodham-Clinton isn't taking a fall over the Benghazi debacle for President Obama without exacting a price -- a steep price.  It's not Bill's or Hill's way to give from the heart.  Like the devil, the Clintons expect their due, and gosh darn it, they're going to get it -- one way or another."
Rush just said that Hillary accepted responsibility, but did not take blame.

Video from Ann Althouse, with the comment,  "Provide direction and leadership? He's leading from behind. Behind Hillary".   (Emphasis in the original)

WaPo from Oct 8th: State Dept officials deny linking attack to anti-Islam video, raising questions

Remember back in 1996 that William Safire called Hillary Clinton a "congenital liar".
"The reaction that is of interest to language students centered on the meaning of congenital. An op-ed colleague called to ask: "Did you mean inherited? Shouldn't you have used habitual?" A White House spokesman also picked up this literal interpretation of the adjective, and Mrs. Clinton later chose to escalate the charge in a National Public Radio interview: "My mother took some offense, because being called a congenital liar seems to reflect badly on her and my late father."
