Oh, the hypocrisy!

A message thanking “our fallen heroes” that was posted to Twitter by Hillary Clinton on Memorial Day failed miserably after receiving a barrage of reminders that she is responsible for the death of the four heroes who died during the Benghazi terrorist attacks in 2012 while she was secretary of state.

Here is Clinton’s message:

Our fallen heroes deserve our profound gratitude for giving their lives to protect our freedom, today and every day. #MemorialDay -H

— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) May 30, 2016

The deaths of some of those “fallen heroes” falls squarely on the shoulders of Clinton whose inaction as head of the State Department led to the deaths of four Americans at the Libyan consulate on September 11, 2012, including two Navy SEALs, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, an Air Force veteran, Sean Smith, and American ambassador Chris Stevens. Her message seems to blatantly ignore this fact.

Twitter users were incensed at her hypocrisy on display and let her know that they haven’t forgotten her continued deflections that she did nothing wrong as head of the Sate Department. Unlike Clinton, whose infamous defense during the Benghazi hearings was, “What difference at this point does it make,” most of us  feel like it makes all the difference in the world to expose her responsibility for these men’s lives. Here is a sampling of the better responses:

.@HillaryClinton What difference does your gratitude make when you sent four of our fallen heroes to their graves in #Benghazi? #MemorialDay

@HillaryClinton 4 of which you failed to protect and then lied to their parents and said they died for a damn video! pic.twitter.com/xtAB5VqoVA

But don’t worry, she did her campaigning, excuse me, patriotic duty:
