Clinton takes responsibility for consulate security, blames confusion on ‘fog of war’

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took responsibility Monday night for any security failures leading up to the consulate attack last month in Libya that killed an the American ambassador, but she seemed to push back against claims of a cover-up, blaming the “fog of war” for the Obama administration’s shifting explanations for the attack.

Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans died in the assault on the consulate in Benghazi. Administration officials initially suggested that the attack was “spontaneous” violence that grew out of protests over an anti-Islam film, rather than a premeditated attack. It later became clear that intelligence officials suspected terrorism almost immediately, and investigators now think extremists tied to Al Qaeda carried out a coordinated attack, with no evidence that the attack was preceded by a protest outside the consulate.

Clinton, however, attributed the administration’s shifting story to “the confusion you get in any type of combat situation.”

After all, Hillary knows all about combat:

And here we thought the fog of war lasted only as long as the battle; Hillary would have us believe it lasts as long as it takes for Team Tick-Tock to get their story straight.
