In an inconvenient (or convenient) bit of timing, soon-to-be
former Secretary of State Hilary Clinton will not be testifying due to a
concussion she suffered during a bout of the flu:
When the State Department revealed on Saturday that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had fainted last week and suffered a concussion due to a stomach virus, the announcement left more questions than answers regarding Clinton's health. Her absence will raise even more questions from the congressional hearings on the terrorist attacks in Benghazi next week. …The Accountability Review Board, which is appointed by the State Department, “is expected to complete its report on the Benghazi attacks this week,” and the “board’s two leaders, Ambassador Thomas Pickering and former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mike Mullen are scheduled to provide a closed-door, classified briefing for the two congressional committees on Wednesday.”Clinton, though, will not be able to answer any questions from members of Congress about Libya or about the Review Board's Benghazi report, which will ultimately put a bigger spotlight on the missteps her State Department may have taken leading up to the terrorist attacks (Clinton has already taken "responsibility" for the State Department's failures that resulted in the deaths of four Americans in Libya). But Clinton's absence will also intensify questions about her long-term health, especially in light of her recent comments that indicated she does not have any intention of running for president in four years.
This mishap is a little too
convenient in a scandal that has been plagued with incompetence,
lies,
denials
and deflections.
I think it should be obvious to Mrs. Clinton that she will never be president.
Her falling on any sword will profit
her nothing.
