    If we are to believe Hillary on her moral struggle with the fiasco in Benghazi, it was all summed up in this statement today at the hearing: In her most emotive testimony, Clinton sought to defang the GOP attacks by arguing that she agonized over the deaths of four Americans in Libya more than anyone else on the panel. "I would imagine I have thought more about what happened than all of you put together," she said. "I have lost more sleep than all of you put together. I have been wracking my brain about what more could have been done or should have been done."

    As badly as I want to believe that she did her utmost to protect those four lost souls, I find it hard to believe, and here's why!

    1) Guilt does eat away at a person's conscious, and with the "blood of those four men on her hands" for the remainder of her life, I think this was more guilt and remorse for not doing the right thing in a timely manner, that is causing her sleepless nights! If, in fact, she is truly having sleepless nights caused by her fumbling of Benghazi???

    2) It is more likely that the real cause behind her sleepless nights is the fact that this scandal, like with Richard Nixon, could bring down her lifelong dream of being POTUS! AND, if that isn't enough, she is facing the uncertainty of her email debacle! That alone could hurt her chances for a successful White House bid, and maybe even end in jail time, or at least house arrest and or probation!

    Those are my views on the case of Hillary .... so what are yours (views)?

    So what? This continues to be a waste of time. McCarthy told the true reason behind these "hearings". From that point on, they should have just gone into a corner and sat down about Hillary Clinton, her email and Benghazi. It's making them look stupid.

    According to your warped sense of reasoning, the Watergate committee should have "gone sat in a corner, and shut up too?"

    She was top dog. And according to President Harry S Truman, the "buck stop with the head of the agency!" In this case, she can play dumb, duplicate your mannerisms kiddo, but the fact is more then 600 tomes she was asked to send more security. And each time, she failed to take necessary action.

    Of course, we can believe her and that is that her staff NEVER passed those requests unto her. Which is hard to believe, but if it is true, we must ask why she has not taken steps to fire those incompetent staffers?

    But the truth is, she hired these people, and whether they shared those requests or not, the buck still stopped with her. And to take it one step further .... the man whom she worked for, President Obama, was her immediate and hiring person, and if the buck stopped at the top, he too should be eating humble pie.

    So tell me oh great and ALL knowing man, just how going after the truth can be reduced to a mere comment from a California Congressman. A Congressman from the left coast is in all actually a conservative light at the most. In fact, many of in Cali consider McCarthy a Democrat in Republican clothing. So don't believe his supposedly lose lips comment. I think it was said to plant a seed of distrust towards necessary hearings.

    Nos, you've heard the rest of the story, and unless you can refute me word for word, I'd like to suggest that you find a nice quiet corner to put your head down in, and remain silent, because right now, you know "butt-kiss" about these hearings and their real purpose. Shalom, and good day, kiddo!

    Of course, Hillary is responsible but the Democrats will still vote for her. American will elect her just because she is a female.

    After seeing the postmortem Hillary VICTORY! being shouted from the left press I had an epiphany as to the real purpose of the hearing.

    This all day three ring media circus with our queen as the ringmaster was nothing more than a public presentation of her resume (downfall of Kadafi, etc...) before her coronation next year.

    I watched a fair amount of the hearing. The GOP folk wandered all over the spectrum and seldom really addressed the issue they said the hearings were for. Also the took quotes out of context and removed words from other quests they used to attack her. It reminded me of a theological argument where a person takes a verse out of context and continues to attempt to use that scripture though it makes them look silly. She was ready and made the look silly. The GOP is helping her campaign. It is not smart of them to continue to do so.
