The Benghazi fiasco has effected the Presidential race. The Romney campaign has been hammering the Obama Regime over it’s lies and cover ups over what occurred in Libya on September 11th, 2012. Even the media was starting to ask questions. Now on the eve of the alleged Town Hall debate, which will really be a lynch mob against Romney, Hillary Clinton takes the fall. While in Peru, the Secretary of State took responsibility for the debacle that occurred at Benghazi. Her intention is too get the heat off of Obama.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took responsibility Monday night for any security failures leading up to the consulate attack last month in Libya that killed an the American ambassador, but she seemed to push back against claims of a cover-up, blaming the “fog of war” for the Obama administration’s shifting explanations for the attack.
Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans died in the assault on the consulate in Benghazi. Administration officials initially suggested that the attack was “spontaneous” violence that grew out of protests over an anti-Islam film, rather than a premeditated attack.
It later became clear that intelligence officials suspected terrorism almost immediately, and investigators now think extremists tied to Al Qaeda carried out a coordinated attack, with no evidence that the attack was preceded by a protest outside the consulate.
Clinton, however, attributed the administration’s shifting story to “the confusion you get in any type of combat situation.”
