So Hillary took the fall and fell on her sword for Obama, declaring, in the face of all evidence to the contrary, that she was responsible for the lack of security at the Benghazi consulate that took the lives of our ambassador to Libya and three other Americans. One wonders what inducement Obama made to the Secretary of State to induce her to absolve Obama from blame? For starters, it’s a win-win for Hillary. If Obama loses the election nothing she says now will matter in the slightest. But if he happens to win, then there’s a payoff. And what could that payoff be? A nomination to the Supreme Court? The Democratic nomination for president in 2016? My guess is Hillary is aiming for the top, and the top is the presidency, and being a Clinton, if only by bogus marriage, she believes the White House is hers by right of inheritance.

How gallantly she got on board

She took the blame, and badly gored

She fell upon Obama’s sword

She looks to sweet sixteen

A Clinton, she felt the first prize

Was hers to have despite the lies

We win this year was her surmise

And then there’s sweet sixteen

The nomination’s hers by right

By acclamation, without fight

The presidency within sight

And all in sweet sixteen

And so she climbs aboard the bus

And smiling says what‘s all the fuss

The blame for everything’s on us

And on to sweet sixteen
