Hillary's Signature, Benghazi Documents

The presence of Hillary Clinton's signature on Benghazi documents doesn't necessarily mean she knew about the documents, says White House spokesman Jay Carney.

Well. That's reassuring. There's a 9/11 anniversary terrorist attack on the U.S., resulting in the deaths of four Americans, and we're supposed to accept that Hillary was out to lunch.

It's "protocol" for signatures to be on documents they didn't actually sign.

Remember, we're not talking about a form letter sent to a school kid. We're talking about matters related to an ATTACK ON THE U.S.

From CNSNews:

The White House dismissed the signature of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on documents ignoring security concerns in Benghazi, calling it “protocol” for government official “signatures” to appear on documents they did not sign.

“It is standard protocol that cables originating from the department in Washington go out under the authority of the current Secretary of State with their signature, i.e. their name, typed at the bottom,” White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said Wednesday, using his fingers for quote marks when he said “signature.” He continued. “This practice has been in place throughout this administration and across prior administrations, both Democratic and Republican.”

A report by five House committees released Tuesday found that Senior State Department officials, including Clinton, approved reductions in security at the facilities in Benghazi, Libya. The report cites an April 19, 2012, cable bearing Clinton's signature acknowledging a March 28, 2012, request from then-U.S. Ambassador to Libya Gene Cretz for more security, yet allowing further reductions.

This is unacceptable. No excuses.

Hillary Clinton blew it.
