"Let's Move On......"

Whenever I hear this, "Let's move on," I am alerted to one thing.  Somebody doesn't want to be held accountable/responsible.

Hillary Clinton, in the wake of the reports concerning her conduct during the Benghazi debacle, uttered this.  "Let's move on."  Of course she wants to "move on."  

I haven't read either of the reports yet, but have seen the Democrats' version.  It casts no blame, certainly none on Clinton.  Gee, isn't that surprising??????  Who didn't see that one coming?  I'm curious to read how Clinton's numerous blunders and cover-up are handled.  Among many, two things stand out in my mind.  First, it was the blatant dishonesty in claiming the murders in Benghazi were caused by some anti-Muslim You Tube presentation.  (To make it look really good, wasn't the You Tube guy charged with some crime, maybe a violation of parole?  I don't recall the specifics.)  Second was Clinton's response before the Senate Oversight Committee, "What difference does it make?"  (I know there have been attempts to put her callous comment into perspective, but I've read the exchange and "perspective" doesn't change anything.)

But I'm straying.  "Let's move on."  How many times have I heard that over the years?  From politicians and bureaucrats?  From school administrators?  Almost immediately I think that someone somewhere is trying to escape blame, responsibility/accountability.

What's done is done.  Let's not dwell on the past.  Let's not point fingers.  And all the rest.  We need to point fingers.  We need to dwell on the past.  What's done is not necessarily done.  If someone messed up, why in the world wouldn't we want to dwell on it?  If someone made egregious mistakes, why in the world would we want to "move on?" 

Letting people, in this manner, escape blame only can lead to more mistakes in the future, either from the same people who've never been held accountable or from others who know that they won't be held accountable.  Would you want to use a surgeon who has more than once left a sponge in a patient?  Would you want to hire an accountant who has repeatedly messed up tax filings?  Would you want to eat at a restaurant that always messes up your bill?

People need to be held accountable and responsible.  No more of this "Let's move on."  We deserve to know who has made mistakes and how and why those mistakes were made.  If that includes Clinton, well, so be it.

BTW, I saw a yard sign in the subdivision across the street.  Next to the "TRUMP.  Make America Great Again" sign was this "CLINTON: Prison 2016."  

I wonder if Clinton will choose Senator Elizabeth Warren as her running mate?  Elizabeth Warren, "Fauxcahontas" herself.  Yep, to get her job at Harvard, she lied about being part American Indian.  I guess being a woman wasn't enough; she had to claim further minority status. But isn't that a great nickname, "Fauxcahontas?"   

I really don't think Clinton will nab her.  Despite the claims of the most recent polls, I think the Clintons are not convinced this won't be a close election.  Two women on the ticket?  I know it's 2016, but I'm guessing there are many men out there who will be turned off at that prospect.  (I, for one, would never note for this ticket, if it were to happen.  But it has nothing to do with two women; it has everything to do with the types of women.)  So that leaves.....?

Remember my mantra for the '16 Election, "When given the choice between two evils, choose neither."
