Hillary on Benghazi: I Didn't Lie - It Was 'the Fog of War'

No, you lied.

Sunday on ABC’s This Week, host George Stephanopoulos asked Hillary Clinton whether or not she thought she could regain American voters’ trust following the Benghazi hearings, after it was revealed that she had told the Egyptian prime minister at the time that “we know the attack in Libya had nothing to do with” the YouTube video she tried to blame for the terror attack, Clinton said she did not lie, but was simply caught up in “the fog of war.”

After Stephanopoulos played a video clip of family members of Benghazi victims asserting that Hillary lied, she replied,

“I understand the continuing grief at the loss that parents experienced with the loss of these four brave Americans. I did testify as you know for 11 hours and I answered all of these questions. Now, I can’t, I can’t help it that people think there has to be something else there. I said very clearly, there had been a terrorist group that had taken responsibility on Facebook, between the time that I, you know, when I talked to my daughter. That was the latest information, we were giving it credibility, and then we learned the next day, it wasn’t true. In fact, they retracted it. This was a fast-moving series of events in the fog of war, and I think most Americans understand.”

Most Americans understand that you're a liar.
