Republican Benghazi Committee Member: Hillary Purposely Made GOP ‘Look Cruel’

Posted by | November 17, 2015 16:00 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics


According to House Select Committee on Benghazi member Lynn Westmoreland, Hillary Clinton tricked the committee into having a public hearing so she could drag it out and make them look bad.

“As you know, some of you may have watched the marathon Hillary Clinton fiasco, and I say that because Trey Gowdy, the chairman of the committee, wanted to interview her in private, and she said, ‘No, I want to do this in public,’” Westmoreland said in a recent speech uploaded to YouTube.

“Now to me, that was us stepping in a trap because we should have known that she was going to go on and just stall, debate, filibuster, on these answers to make it go as long as possible, so we would look cruel,” he continued.

    They had her right where she wanted them.
    She went away after the meeting and thought, ‘that was to easy’…

    the stupid runs deep in the republicans, they prove that everyday.

    she did a fine job of it too!!!

    Apparently, you have all the intelligence of the average Labrador…

    He is right. He could have looked in the mirror with his fellow GOP and seen a bunch of jackasses. He only saw elephants. Unfortunately for him they were stupid elephants who did not remember how she kicked their ass before.

    The STUPID with THAT one is STRONG !!!

  7. Randy Hiner November 18th, 2015 at 10:12

    She didn’t make you look cruel, she made you look STUPID.

    These clowns need something to do. Since they don’t want to help run the country, they dwell on the past and make up stories. That’s what the Benghazi lie is all.

  9. LeeAnn Gerleman November 18th, 2015 at 12:23

    Oh come on. These clowns really know how to spin this stuff. We really need to get these comments out into the public media. Show how crazy they really are. But instead, they say these crazy things, then because there’s more news coming along, these things are forgotten. We need to bring these comments up over and over again.

      After the issues are pointed out again, Republicans will be complaining about the liberal media bias. Republicans have been doing this for a while now.

        cute yorkie.

        • glennst010 November 18th, 2015 at 20:25

          Tracey – It’s funny. You have said this before. Perhaps 5 or 6 months ago. I love Yorkies too. Not just for their looks, but for their disposition. But my Toto is so cute when he sits on my lap, rests his head on my forearm and looks at me with imploring eyes. So precious.

          He provides relief from extremist politics for me as well.

          • tracey marie November 18th, 2015 at 22:27

            My little one makes me smile. I do remeber asking you before, I am stuttering. :)

    • tracey marie November 18th, 2015 at 15:25

      bichon or maltese, very cute.

  10. Madge November 18th, 2015 at 13:12

    Yeah. Hillary is the meany-head. Whatever.

  11. Robert Kennedy November 18th, 2015 at 13:32

    Telling the truth about Republicans always makes them look bad. But they need to blame themselves for BEING bad, not those who point it out.

    • glennst010 November 18th, 2015 at 20:38

      Republican presidential candidates also have to realize that they will not always be in a room full of sheep. That’s how they thought it might be a good idea to write the rules for debates and then realized they realized that the even the dumbest of the dumb in their party knew that it was bad policy and bad publicity.

  12. Chris November 18th, 2015 at 13:36

    First time I’ve ever heard that open hearings are bad.

    Of course, it comes from the topsy-turvy world of the GOP where good is bad, up is down, right is left…

    What this nut is admitting is that one lone Democratic woman is more than the Inquisition panel could handle. Even the Donald would have to agree that they’re “a bunch of losers.”

    • Robert Kennedy November 19th, 2015 at 01:05

      But on the other hand, in their backwards world one thing you can be sure of. While this isn’t the way they planned it, an absolute certainty is that the left is (always) right. 8^)

  13. Bonnie Raymond November 18th, 2015 at 14:52

    They couldn’t help themselves and she was mean and didn’t stop them.

    • Gina Bousquet November 18th, 2015 at 15:56

      They are the deranged lawmakers, they were the mean ones.

    • Gina Bousquet November 18th, 2015 at 16:04

      Sorry, I misunderstood your comment. Foreigner, sometimes I miss the connotation meaning of words in colloquial English.

  14. 062014 November 18th, 2015 at 15:36

    She was right. They would have taken her statements out of context and refused to release the entire questioning. If they are so easily “tricked”: they should not be leaders of the USA

    • glennst010 November 18th, 2015 at 23:02

      Too bad republican ignorance and arrogance failed them this time. Go, Hillary!

  15. Dickin's Cider November 19th, 2015 at 00:34

    She did nothing to make them look that way, they did that all by themselves.

  16. liberalMD November 19th, 2015 at 00:56

    When someone wants to convert a closed meeting into an open or public affair, it is almost always because they are concerned that the other party will misconstrue what is said or agreed upon. Sounds like a good move on Hillary’s part, as we all know the Republicans have made that into an art form.

    • whatthe46 November 19th, 2015 at 01:10

      exactly. she’s not stupid by any means. if it’s closed, they’ll come out to the press making up b.s.

  17. Sue Roediger November 20th, 2015 at 02:36

    waaaa … waaa …..

    • Obewon November 23rd, 2015 at 21:18

      Crybabies are all that republicans worship today.

      • Bleeding BAD-GER November 24th, 2015 at 18:25
