Clinton stonewalling will always be old news
For the record, I don’t blame President Obama or his secretary of state for the death of Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty.
Critics can hit the administration for ignoring attacks that led the Red Cross and Brits to withdraw personnel from Benghazi.
[...] White House aides David Plouffe and Ben Rhoades — not the Department of Defense, CIA or FBI — briefed Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice before she appeared on Sunday talk shows and blamed the video.
Then-Defense Secretary Leon Panetta issued a “clear directive” for a rescue mission that could have prevented the deaths of Woods and Doherty.
If not for this investigation, the public would not have learned that Clinton sent all sensitive government email through a private server in her home.
When the administration should have been pushing for the speedy capture of forces that killed American personnel, its first impulse — Clinton’s first impulse — was misdirection.
