War Criminal Dick Cheney Blames Hillary for Benghazi

May 17, 2014
by D Stein Kelly

Former Vice President Dick Cheney apparently misses the spotlight so much that he feels it’s necessary to jump into the GOP’s Benghazi witch hunt. During a Fox News interview with Chris Wallace, Cheney made it clear that he feels the 2012 attack on the US Embassy in Benghazi was Hillary Clinton’s fault.

“She was Secretary of State at the time that it happened – she was one of the first in Washington to know about it,” said Cheney. “I think she clearly bears responsibility for whatever the State Department did or didn’t do with respect to that crisis.”


Cheney then went on to express his opinions on the seriousness of the issue while making clear that he thinks a lot more if going to come to light soon.

“I do think it’s a major issue,” said Cheney. “I don’t think we’ve heard the last of it yet.”

Thanks for posting.

This country will never heal until the Bush administration is held accountable.

I blame President Obama for looking forward not backwards.

I blame President Obama for interfering with foreign countries that want the Bush administration held accountable.

The U.S. can not survive a two tier justice system.

The laws of the land and international community apply to everyone equally or there is no point in having laws.

Not only did Dick Cheney make this asinine lie, his wife doubled down on the "Hillary is behind Monica's reappearance" lie.

These people have no sense of decency, no credibility, and no class.

Dick Cheney: Hillary Should Be 'Held Accountable' For Benghazi Terror Attacks

Dick Cheney, the former vice president who was in office during the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001 and later pushed the country into war with Iraq based on faulty intelligence, said on Sunday that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would be "held accountable" for four Americans that died during a terrorist attack in Benghazi.

(snip)

Cheney's wife, Lynne, who was also on the program also doubled down on her recent suggestion that Hillary Clinton had conspired with Vanity Fair to publish an article by Monica Lewinsky to get the issue out of the way before a 2016 presidential run.

"I was really paying the Clintons a large compliment," she insisted. "I was saying how clever they are politically. And it seemed to me, if you had something that might come up during the campaign that would be damaging, it was very smart to get it out of the way early."

"So, that's my case, Chris, and I'm staying with it."

They're always on the Sunday morning news shows spouting lies and spewing hate.

I don't know much about the politics of their other daughter. But if she's not a crazy right-wing loon like the rest of her family, then I take it back ... the Cheneys are more like the Munsters, who had one "normal" family member ... Marilyn.
