Clinton takes on Benghazi critics, warns of more security threats
At times angry and choked with emotion, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Wednesday took on Republican critics of her department's handling of the September terrorist attack in Libya that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans, but repeatedly distanced herself from a direct role in specific situations.
"As I have said many times since September 11, I take responsibility," Clinton told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee at the first of two long-anticipated congressional hearings Wednesday on the attack that became a major issue in the November presidential election.

This Johnson is a light weight and a political hack. He knows that the IC has the information he needs and Clinton will not discuss this in an open meeting for obvious security reasons. Johnson does not want to protect sources and methods and I question his sincerity and/or common sense. Rand Paul is an obvious fool by his comments and I will not waste any more valuable time on his comments. Just remember that every foreign service officer serving overseas takes risks in doing his job and has to due risk analysis for his own personal protection. What else is new??
looked like Hillary was reading from a script?
