What a fiasco the Benghazi affair was. There was plenty of warning, including requests for an increase in security, which were not only ignored but also denied.

Then the administration lied to the American people; they must have thought that we were idiots missing from some village.

Then they threw Susan Rice, the ambassador to the United Nations, under the bus, having her tell the American people that the violence was because of an anti-Muslim film and a spontaneous outbreak from a group of passers-by. Oh sure, those passers-by just happened to be carrying mortars and rockets.

Then in reference to the passers-by, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton snapped at the congressional investigation committee: “What’s the difference?” Are you kidding me? It makes a lot of difference!

Now, Clinton thinks that she is qualified to be our next commander in chief. How many people will she leave behind next?

She is also the mother of Obamacare, and her history goes back to the Whitewater real estate scandal.

Unfortunately, Obamacare has nothing to do with quality medicine, it is only about insurance. Over the next few years, we will see the slow demise of the best health care system in the world.

I have never seen our government like this before. It all comes down to poor leadership.
