Blumenthal Email Confirms: Libya Was To Be Hillary’s Crowning Accomplishment
Paul wrote earlier today
about the trove of Libya-related emails that Sidney Blumenthal has
turned over to a House committee. The emails are embarrassing to Hillary
Clinton because she received the emails from Blumenthal, but apparently
failed to produce them to the committee. For the most part, these
emails have not yet been made public, but National Review has exclusively obtained one of them; it is reproduced in full below.

Second, it confirms that Libya was intended to be Hillary’s great accomplishment as Secretary of State, for which she was to take full credit. Third, it is striking how Blumenthal’s comments about Libya sound as though he was talking about Iraq.

Neocon Fugitive Given Ukraine Province
The latest political move by the U.S.-backed “pro-democracy” regime in Ukraine was to foist on the people of Odessa the autocratic Georgian ex-President Mikheil Saakashvili, a neoconservative favorite and currently a fugitive from his own country which is seeking him on charges of human rights violations and embezzlement.
New York Times correspondent David M. Herszenhorn justified this imposition of a newly minted Ukrainian citizen on the largely Russian-speaking population of Odessa by saying that “the Ukrainian public’s general willingness to accept the appointment of foreigners to high-level positions underscores the deep lack of trust in any government after nearly a quarter-century of mismanagement and corruption.”
