Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), a presumptive 2016 presidential contender, wants the current 2016 presumptive frontrunner Hillary Clinton to be dragged in front of the House’s new committee on Benghazi to testify about the attacks.
Paul said Monday that the House select committee on Benghazi should subpoena the former secretary of state to testify as part of its investigation.
“Absolutely,” Paul said when asked about a subpoena during an interview Monday with host Eric Bolling on Fox News. “One, we need to know who was responsible and she was in charge. But two, we need to make sure nothing like this ever happens again.”
“Some big mistakes were made under Hillary Clinton’s watch,” he continued. “Somebody needs to ultimately accept responsibility for this.”
Clinton testified before House and Senate committees in January 2013 about the attacks.
Give it up, you’ll never be president.
Go ahead, Teakkklanners. Haul a lion into a pen of sheep.
Randy, hon, you will never, ever, ever be president but please stay with this line of attack. It only marginalizes your party and base while providing Hillary with a future line of attack when she points out the number of times you and your ilk voted against increased embassy security funding. “This do nothing Congress did nothing and 4 people, including my good friend, Ambassador Chris Stevens, lost their lives because of it” would be a pretty devastating line in a debate.
What about all those embassies around the world that were attacked under George W. Bush that killed hundreds of people. Where are the hearings on those??? The reason why Benghazi happened is because congress did nothing about the funding for security for embassies and consulates. I think we know where the blame and the fault is. If there would have been hearings under George W. Bush we might have done more to keep embassies and consulate’s security funded.
Of course - that is the whole point of the committee, isn’t it?
