The Republican men on the Benghazi Select Committee are being turned into whining boys who are falling apart as they are trying to go face to face with Hillary Clinton.
Video of Rep. Lynn Westmoreland and Hillary Clinton:
Transcript of their key exchange from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
Clinton: I know that sounds somewhat hard to understand, but we have a process. And the experts who I have the greatest confidence in and who have been through so many difficult positions, because practically all of them have rotated through Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Yemen, other places. They were the ones making the assessment. No one ever came to me and said we should shut down our compound in Benghazi.
Westmoreland: I’m not saying shut it down. I’m saying protect it.
Clinton: Well, it was.
Westmoreland: I’m not saying shut it down. I’m just saying protect it.
Clinton: Right.
Westmoreland: And when you say security professionals, I’m not trying to be disparaging on anybody, but I don’t know who those folks were, but, just…
Clinton: Well, they risked their lives to try to save…
Westmoreland: Just my little opinion, they weren’t very professional when it came to protecting people.
….
Clinton: I have to add, congressman, the diplomatic security professionals are among the best in the world. I would put them up against anybody. And I just cannot allow any comment to be in the record in any way criticizing or disparaging them. They have kept Americans safe in two wars and in a lot of other really terrible situations over the last many years. I trusted them with my life. You trusted them with yours when you’re on CODELs. They deserve better and they deserve all the support Congress can give them because they are doing a really hard job very well.
Westmoreland: Well, ma’am, all I can say is they missed something here, and we lost four Americans.
For months, House Republicans have been bellowing about how they couldn’t wait for Hillary Clinton to testify in front of the Benghazi Select Committee. Hillary Clinton is testifying today, and the Republicans are getting their heads handed to them.
Republican Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) was so frustrated that he melted down into a conspiracy filled rant that mansplained to Clinton what really happened in Benghazi.

Clinton hasn’t been shaken or rattled once. Hillary Clinton has proven adept at taking the Republicans’ extremism and using it against them.
The House Republican boys can’t take the heat that Hillary Clinton is bringing, as the former Sec. of State is putting a stake through the heart of the Benghazi hearing that was supposed to destroy her as a presidential candidate.
It is turning into a terrible day for Republicans as Hillary Clinton has been everything they always feared and more.
