Hillary Clinton's new book sticks a pin in the Republican's Benghazi conspiracy theories.

Hillary Clinton's new book sticks a pin in the Republican's Benghazi conspiracy theories.
Courtesy of Politico:

Benghazi — and a pointed rebuttal to Republican critics who’ve laced into her over the incident — in a much-anticipated chapter of her forthcoming book, “Hard Choices,” obtained by POLITICO.

“Those who exploit this tragedy over and over as a political tool minimize the sacrifice of those who served our country,” Clinton writes in the gripping chapter, “Benghazi: Under Attack.”

Casting doubt on the motivations of congressional Republicans who have continued to investigate the attacks, including with an upcoming House select committee, Clinton continues: “I will not be a part of a political slugfest on the backs of dead Americans. It’s just plain wrong, and it’s unworthy of our great country. Those who insist on politicizing the tragedy will have to do so without me.”

The 34-page chapter is Clinton’s most complete account to date of the attack and its aftermath. Her tone is less defensive than defiant: Clinton takes responsibility for the “horror” of the loss of life in Benghazi, but puts it in the context of “the heartbreaking human stakes of every decision we make” — and she accuses adversaries of manipulating a tragedy for partisan gain.

There has been, she writes, a “regrettable amount of misinformation, speculation, and flat-out deceit by some in politics and the media,” but new information from “a number of reputable sources continues to expand our understanding of these events.”

Boy you KNOW this is going to cause the Right Wing to become apoplectic in response to this chapter.

Politico goes on to suggest that Clinton is offering a blueprint for Democrats to use against the Benghazi allegations.

After reading this I am even more excited about Hillary's upcoming appearance on Fox News in June.

I think it very likely might be a blood bath.
