It’s impossible to listen/watch the Benghazi hearings with justice on your mind and not find that Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton not have any culpability on her hands. Of course if she could have known now what she didn’t know then, this tragedy would have been avoided. Yet we can’t blame her for not knowing these facts but instead for the failure to seek those facts out and therefore due her job with due diligence. When listening to the hearing we could observe that many of those facts were open to those who truly were looking for them and should have been followed up with a telephone call to Ambassador Chris Stevens. This is also apparent when we understand that there was never any blame set for her subordinates through firing or even a reprimand. The facts not politics are the substance that demonstrates this truth and no amount of politicking should change that.
