Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) charged hard after Hillary Clinton on Saturday, saying her responsibility for the 2012 Benghazi, Libya, attacks shows she should never be president.
I think that Hillary Clintons failure to defend our ambassador should forever preclude her from that office, Paul said at the Iowa Republican Partys Lincoln Dinner on Saturday.
He accused Clinton, at the time the secretary of State, of failing to adequately protect U.S. Embassador to Libya Christopher Stevens and three other Americans who died in the 2012 attacks.
The one thing you have to do as Commander in Chief is defend America and its interest, Paul said.

Just like what the GOP congress did for Amtrak.

(21,528 posts)Shouldn't a president also be aware of things like the House report on the event? It doesn't say much for Paul that he is oblivious to the report his own party put together. If he is that out of touch how can he be expected to make informed decisions as president?
