Hillary Clinton admitted to the House Select Committee on Benghazi on Thursday evening that she broke the law in handling security for the U.S. consulate there. It was Rep. Susan Brooks who was able to get Hillary to admit her guilt, after some dialogue exchange. THIS is what we know!

Your delirious. Must be from starvation because your food stamps haven't loaded yet. Tell us about how Obama has changed our country and put us in the right path for success. Just take off your koolaid mustache before you tell anybody. It'll help them not to laugh so quickly.
