Offline most of the day, I was unaware that Charles Krauthammer's nasty and misleading attack on Hillary Clinton had buzzed around the interwebs all morning. You would think, from reading his words, that Hillary Clinton blamed the video for the attack on the Benghazi consulate that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others. That was his implication. That was not the case. She did make a reference to that video in the context of demonstrations at several U.S. Embassies in the region. She did not, however, tie that video to the attack on the consulate as she spoke at Andrews AFB beside the caskets on September 14. In fact, quoting Mahmoud Abbas, she referred to it as an act of terror. I hope that before people believe a misrepresentation of what she said, they will read her words and/or watch the video.

Krauthammer Misled - Hillary Did Not Blame The Video
The proper blog founded in 2008 specifically for defense of Hillary Clinton is The Department of Homegirl Security. Because this issue also involves her work and career, I am cross-posting it here.
