Vice President Joe Biden has chastised Clinton for describing Republicans as "enemies" instead of "opponents" -- and rightly so. If Clinton did not spend every minute of her waking life trying to outsmart the other party and often failing, the Sept. 11, 2012, attacks in Benghazi and the deaths of Americans Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods would be considered a national tragedy, not a political football.

Three days after the attacks, Clinton spoke before the four draped caskets of the Benghazi fallen and denounced violence sparked by "an awful Internet video that we had nothing to do with." It was a presidential election year. The Obama administration preferred to sell the fiction that the deaths were the result of a protest sparked by Islamophobia over what it knew to be the truth -- that the Americans were killed by armed terrorists.

The House Benghazi Committee released new information that shows that from the very start, Clinton knew the video was not responsible for the attacks. On the night of the attacks, before she learned of the deaths of Doherty and Woods at the CIA annex, Clinton emailed her daughter, "Two of our officers were killed in Benghazi by an (al-Qaida)-like group." The next day, according to State Department notes, she told Egyptian Prime Minister Hesham Kandil: "The attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film. ... It was a planned attack, not a protest."
