Back on topic, despite the trolling.

Here is an excellent rationale for repeatedly banging the Benghazi drum.

“Republicans aren't going to let Benghazi go, unless and until they find that it doesn't serve as a liability for Hillary Clinton, who was secretary of state at the time of the attack,” writes New Republic senior editor Brian Beutler on the magazine’s web site. “And while we know that the conspiracy theory that sparked and sustains Benghazimania has been debunked, we don't know whether the right's obsession with it will become a real hindrance for Clinton if she runs for the presidency, or if it will backfire against Republicans.”

So what happens if (and when) Hillary Clinton decides not to run. When you get fixated on just a single non issue, options get limited. Unless this is only to discourage her to run. But at some point the message is going to get stale, like the birther campaign.

I hope they keep it up all summer and into the new year. Every day Issa pulls his shenanigans, makes his party look dumber than a post.

Rand Paul gets four pinocchios. No surprise there.

Politico gets a scoop on Hillary Clinton's new book. Here's a taste of things to come for the umpteenth congressional hearing on Benghazi.

"Hillary Clinton offers a detailed account of the deadly attack on the American embassy in Benghazi — and a pointed rebuttal to Republican critics who’ve laced into her over the incident — in a much-anticipated chapter of her forthcoming book, “Hard Choices,” obtained by POLITICO.
“Those who exploit this tragedy over and over as a political tool minimize the sacrifice of those who served our country,” Clinton writes in the gripping chapter, “Benghazi: Under Attack.”


Casting doubt on the motivations of congressional Republicans who have continued to investigate the attacks, including with an upcoming House select committee, Clinton continues: “I will not be a part of a political slugfest on the backs of dead Americans. It’s just plain wrong, and it’s unworthy of our great country. Those who insist on politicizing the tragedy will have to do so without me.”"
