Probably waiting for that **** Cummings to run out of breath. Could be another hour.

Yep. That's what party loyalty looks like, and it ain't pretty. People aught to be raised to prize truth above all else. How naïve a notion.

And they’re back. That’s Alabama Republican Martha Roby asking the questions to Clinton.

5:15 PM: Roby asks why it did not occur to Clinton to pick up the phone and call Stevens and ask him what he needed in terms of security. Clinton says “we knew what he was looking for” and again says Stevens’s request went to the “security professionals.”

5:05 PM: The Benghazi hearing resumes, and
Rep. Martha Roby (R-AL)
49%
asks Clinton about a $20 million contingency fund that Clinton approved. She asks how she found $20 million to support Libyan security but could not find the funds to “support our own people.” Clinton responds with a technocratic answer about how Congress sets spending levels in categories in spending and the request for diplomatics security was “continuously underfunded.” She says that “we began to get more support” from Congress after the Benghazi tragedy

5:30 PM: Clinton claims that no Americans were killed in nations like Tunisia partly because “I had been consistent in speaking out about that video from the very first day we knew it had sparked the attacks on the Embassy in Cairo.”

5:24 PM: Cummings finally asks a question and asks if Clinton ordered then-Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta to “stand down” on the night of the attacks?

“Of course not,” Clinton replies.

5: 18 PM: Cummings says that the August 17, 2012 memo is “not something new” and not something that the Benghazi Committee uncovered. “That’s right,” Clinton says to her top defender and ally on the Committee. Cummings tries his best to frame the Benghazi investigation as a partisan one meant to hurt Clinton, citing comments by

5:35: Westmoreland asks Clinton what she came up with during her sleepless nights about what happened in Benghazi. He asks her to name two things that she could have done differently. Clinton says the contractors/militia the State Department relied on could have been more reliable. Westmoreland replies that Clinton has previously insisted she had noting to do with that, and Clinton scrambles a bit in her response, saying “there are many elements” that go into security.

5:32 PM: Rep. Westmoreland asks her to give Congress a play by play account of Benghazi and says that it is hard for him to comprehend why she would give the “blow by blow” account of the Tunisia incident that “we are not even investigating.” Clinton says that it is “unfortunate” that “several of you” have dismissed the importance of the YouTube and says Congress must consider the “totality of the circumstances” so “we can learn the best lessons.”

I know politics lend intrinsic shielding properties to the politician. But, still, Clinton got chutzpah.

Amen to that! Saying that she never blamed the Bengal attack on an Internet video when the entire world knows she did is REAL chutzpah!
