So the day the GOP has longed for since Sept. 11, 2012 is finally here: Hillary Clinton was called before members of the House and Senate to talk about the Benghazi attack.
Surely, they must be relieved.
Like a teenager popping a dime-sized zit on his forehead
Or a shit-faced sorority girl taking a piss in the drunk tank toilet.
Or Kim Dotcom emitting a wall-shaking burp after a stuffing his gullet at Golden Coral and downloading the complete 2nd season of Biggest Loser.
For months they’ve frothed. For months they’ve frowned. For months they’ve filled the nighttime cable news shows with furious fits of fear-mongering flatulence.
Four people died and Obama lied, the members of the Republican Party shouted inside the echo chamber. Four people died and Obama lied, the reverb nation of Faux Newsers shouted back.
But now, they have Hillary where they want her. They will make her twist. They will make her squirm. They will make her pay for the 3,000 men and women that died on Sept. 11, 2001.
After all, the president and his cronies knew a month before the 9/11 attacks that Osama bin Laden was planning a terrorist attack and that he intended to use aircraft to do it. And yet they did nothing. Absolutely nothing.
And so Hillary Clinton must pay. She must suffer. She must be embarrassed. She must admit that she failed in her job as Secretary of State. She must atone for the sins that the men and women of the Republican Party never asked George W. Bush to atone for.
