(In response to the Dec. 28 Reporter letter, “GOP stranglehold continues.”)

The reason Susan Rice withdrew from the job of secretary of state was the false testimony of the events in that took place in Benghazi this summer, that led to the death of four Americans. It is probably the reason Hillary Clinton is leaving the office. Because of the Benghazi attacks on the U.S. ambassador, the head of the CIA has recently been relieved of his job, too. At this point, there are more questions than answers. I never voted for Obama, but I am compelled to pray for him lately. The last statement in the letter reads: “The truth be told most could not care less about the welfare of the country.” Ain’t that farther from the truth.
