Right Wing Meltdown: Limbaugh and Hannity Claim Clinton Benghazi Hearing is Staged

Hillary Clinton’s performance at the Benghazi hearing has been so strong that it has triggered a right wing meltdown and claims by Hannity and Limbaugh that the hearing is staged.

On his radio show today, Rush Limbaugh claimed that Hillary Clinton’s Benghazi hearing is staged: (audio -snip-)

-snip-

Limbaugh claimed that Republicans were in on the conspiracy too, because this was all part of getting Hillary Clinton elected in 2016. Hannity decided to channel the 1990s and label this a Clinton conspiracy.

-snip-

The right and their media establishment can’t handle the reality that their hopes of a Benghazi scandal have completely gone up in smoke. After months of telling their audiences that there was a conspiracy and a cover up surrounding Benghazi, Limbaugh and Hannity have to keep the story going. They can’t possibly tell their listeners that there is nothing there.

Congressional Republicans were supposed to “get” Sec. Clinton today. They were going to use her testimony to build the sort of Obama scandal that they have been dreaming of since 2008. Instead the Republicans’ own political theater was turned against them, and Hannity and Limbaugh are left with nothing but empty conspiracy theories.

[Ian David]

2. OMG, they're right! They should go after every Republican who participated! n/t

[Sekhmets Daughter]

[Justice]

13. Exactly right -they should primary them all!!

[CJCRANE]

3. What did Shakespeare say..."All the World's a stage"...

[Brother Buzz]

21. And what did Sigmund Freud say...

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Then the late great sage, Carlin pipped in, "Oh, yeah? Well, sometimes it’s a big, brown dick, with a fat, arrogant, white-collar business criminal asshole sucking on the wet end of it."

[mikeysnot]

4. Chicago computer geek claims

Hannity and Limbaugh make up everything they say.

[Whovian]

It's totally bugfuck insane!

[malaise]

9. She's sure fugging 'em up

[alcibiades_mystery]

17. Secretary Clinton's "What does it matter?" should be on all the network news casts

It really was a Joseph Welch moment, with Johnston looking for all the world like a spoiled child appropriately scolded.

She destroyed him on a public stage.

Now, who wants to be the Republican nominee in 2016?

[Tx4obama]

22. That is the first clip they just showed on MSNBC's Hardball. But ...

But ...

... the right-wingers are spinning it out of context, here: http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2013/01/23/whatdifferencedoesitmake-clinton-quote-catches-fire-on-twitter/?hpt=hp_t1

[John2]

40. I have to

agree with you there. She is going to be tough for anybody if she does run. She made a few of those Republicans look petty. She reminded me of that lady that was the prime minister of Britain, the way she made the Republicans looked today. I imagine a lot of those Republican talk show hosts didn't like what they saw. To tell you the truth, she even surprised me with that performance. I think Newt was right for once.

[Fla Dem]

18. OK, At first I thought I was reading something from "The Onion"

"Limbaugh claimed that Republicans were in on the conspiracy too, because this was all part of getting Hillary Clinton elected in 2016."

Seriously! What numb nuts.

[Silent3]

19. I wonder if they're getting worried about Romney's chance to win yet? n/t

[graham4anything]

20. Hillary45 is the best revenge against Sean and Rush and the entire rightwing conspiracy

that Hillary45 first talked about 20 years ago.

Rush's worst nightmare come true.

[Flashmann]

23. Limbaugh and Hannity Claim Clinton Benghazi Hearing is Staged

Well no shit Sherlocks!!....It is your subordinates WHO staged it......

[lpbk2713]

24. Couldn't be any more of a clear admission of defeat.

There they go again, openly giving aid and assistance to our side.

[falconnius]

29. Did that go the way you thought it was going to go?

reminds me of this:

31. Translation: their era is over, they're officially irrelevant and they know it.

[riverbendviewgal]

33. I agree my brother is a rw Tea bagger

and he gets very, very upset that I have told him he will be a minority very, very soon.

He absolutely hates Obama, mexicans and immigrants and anything that is liberal. He is a real asshole but a typical Republican.

[Initech]

36. I think the tea party is showing everyone how crazy and stupid the Republicans can get.

[librechik]

34. so they demand Hillary be interrogated publicly in order to discredit her

be careful what you wish for, assholes!

[TeamPooka]

38. that's so good I want a cigarette nt

[spanone]

41. damn, they're on to us.

[dallaslibguy1966104]

42. Let the Repubs spout their nonsense

They'll only prove to Americans how stupid they really are..

[tiffany_willis]

44. The Party of Rush

Where will he turn now? Maybe create his own party and all of the nutjobs can join him

[DCBob]

45. now paranoia has set in.

these RW loons have really gone off the deep end.
