Just like when she kicked off her campaign on the idiot Barbara Walter's special, she was not asked a single difficult question. It's obvious that Hillary is the new Messiah of the liberals.
There you go! The conservative fascination with 'messiah'. Taken in context - Cruz must be the 'messiah' of the right. Well, I don't know. There was that brief, conservative bromance with Putin. Is he the messiah of the right?

Here is the original NYT piece:

A Deadly Mix in Benghazi - The New York Times

Everyone should note what Abu Khattari, believed to be the militia captain most responsible for the raid, said about the US political response :

"The two teams are the same. All that changes is the ball. They are laughing at their own people"

Sounds like many of the folks who post on this board.

NYT isnt above reproach. They've made blatantly false stories in the past, especially in regards to the early years of the Soviet Union.

C'mon, libs, do some thinking.

Sorry if the truth upsets you, but obama and killery are indeed murderers... They have black hearts, people dieing means nothing to them...

Oh, so two Republicans and one Democrat are "Congress" these days? Gotta love Fox's deceptiveness.

(I know more Republicans will dispute the NYT report, but Fox's story with that misleading headline is about a total of three Congressmen.)

Poor cons. Always having their big scandal of the moment fizzling.

And yes, witnesses who were attacked said attackers accused them of working for the people (Americans) who insulted the Prophet. Now I wonder just what they meant by that? What particular insult could they have referring to?

But of course you're displaying the typical echo chamber effect that liberals use to keep their pre-conceived notions from being questioned. People who support Obama and Hillary Clinton aren't going to announce damaging things about them. So people who announce damaging things about them must not support them. People who don't support them are just right wing liars, so what they say must be wrong. It's a neat little circle that lets you never be wrong. Anything said which does not coincide with the liberal's opinions is ipso facto biased and therefore can be safely ignored.

I don't know what libs would say, but there was this Centrist that said "Please continue Governor" ...

That doesn't seem to guarantee truth. Some still hedge, mislead, avoid the question, take the Fifth, or downright lie even when they do take an oath.
