(AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta)Washington – Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is leaving office with a slap at critics of the Obama administration’s handling of the September attack on a U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya. She says they don’t live in an “evidenced-based world” and that their refusal to accept the administration’s statements is regrettable.

In her last interview before she steps down Friday, Clinton told The Associated Press that the attack in Benghazi was the low point of her time as America’s top diplomat. But, she suggested that the furor over the assault would not affect any decisions about her political future.

Congressional Republicans accused the Obama administration of intentionally misleading the public about whether the attack was a protest gone awry or a planned terror attack.

Bengazi to 9/11 was nothing. 9/11 could have been prevented by the ” conservative, patriotic friends”. CIA had info not available to FBI. Arab “students” , terrorists on exprired visas and future pilots of the suicide murder plane. Wave length on Police radio and FBI do not match. No Hussein on helm of this country. Of course if we had more firearms this tragedy could have been prevented

This woman really has a lot of Chutzpah. When she was a Senator and criticized the Bush Administration she screamed that she is an American and has the right to critiize any administration but now that the shoe is on the other foot ll of a sudden nobody may criticize the annointed one and his underlings. Now that she is out of office she should just disappear and stop being a callus in everyone’s side.

Please cite to us were did Mrs. Clinton say that “she is an American and has the right to critiize (sic) any administration”. Regardless, even if she indeed said that, in the Benghazi case it was investigated by the House of Representative and the Accountability Review Board as required by the Omnibus Diplomatic and Antiterrorism Act of 1986 to investigate the Benghazi attack. It seems that there was none of the nefarious plans as peddled by FOX new and some right-wingers and yes you.
