True. Also the fact of who was doing it: "Cheryl Mills, Clinton’s chief of staff and former White House counsel who defended President Bill Clinton during his impeachment trial; and Deputy Chief of Staff Jake Sullivan" http://dailysignal.com/print/?post_id=157483 - - - Updated - - - Prove that Americans weren't pissed about attacks on those other embassies and consulates? You really think no one cared?
Whenever Hillary haters want to establish their objectivity, all they need to do is distinguish their current obsession from their attitudes toward each of the above, or document their comparable outrage at all of the above. Of course, they could also belatedly indict Powell and Rice if they need to pretend theirs is not a blatantly partisan agenda. Otherwise, "Benghazi" just being the "Birther's" methadone pertains. .
They didn't have to admit anything. Just say there was an organized unprovoked attack by unknown parties on our consulate. An investigation is underway to find out who what and why while we mourn the loss of our ambassador.
I think that would have been better, but they may have been too afraid reporters would latch to the full truth once pointed in the correct direction.
Or maybe, just maybe, at first they did think it was due to the movie...there were protest elsewhere becaue of that reason, then did not want to change the story without sufficent evidecne. I dont think the OA thought they could "mislead" the press. Is this another RW thing I missed?
They were running Operation Zero Footprint at that time arming the Syrian rebels and it is suspected the Ambassador also worked for the CIA. The 'consulate' was not listed as anything in official documents. The military did not know it was going on because this went against their recommendations so could be one of the reasons for little coordination with the military from the WH.
At no time did Bush or Obama say we would not go back to take care of business if needed. So, they could have made it clear that if further military action is needed. So be it.
better start following the news about the IRS scandal..............seems like they've gotten even more dirt on Obie's administration than all of those deniers want. It would seem that it is no lie.
Pushing the video story for the weeks leading up to the election when evidence clearly showed it was a coordinated, planned attack is misleading. That's the scandal. Not the CIA operation or the reason Stevens was in Benghazi. I'm good with all of that. What I'm not good with is having the WH and State lie to the American public for self-serving reasons; i.e. the election. In the case of the OP, we now have further cover-up to protect Clinton's chances of election in 2016.
Proof? Oh please show me a little evidnce of anything...just something. It is funny the Rwers say this is the most corrupt administration ever, then have to make up scandals with zero evidnce of anything.
I have no problem with military or intelligence operations and the need to classify such operations. What I have a problem with are politicians who spin the facts for their own needs, not the needs of the nation. Spinning Benghazi to protect President Obama's chances for reelection is an example of this type of deplorable action.
I never suggested that the series of Benghazi-like outrages during the Bush years had not been distressing for the American public. Prove that there was, in each comparable instance, a cadre of Secretary of State critics as wee wee'd up as one is now about the most recent instance of a lethal terrorist attack on an overseas American installation. Again it all depends who is the target of your fatwa.
What video. The one that maybe a few hundred people saw. About Muhammad. They can grow a sense of humor.
You are now claiming the gentleman, the high level highly respected offical, is RW and trying to fire up the RW base? And your proof of this is what exactly? - - - Updated - - - Your proof there is a book here is what exactly?
Yes the same Cheryl Mills whose car was broken into and her notes about the Vince Foster case and Waco were stolen.
Weirdest thing. this story leads on the front page of Fox. Not to be found on WSJ, CSM or CNN. WEIRD, or maybe they want to vertify a story before they run with it. Guess Fox isnt burdened by such formalities.
Fox is what it is. The American version of Rupert Murdock's successful conservative pseudo journalism news networks. The Aussies got theirs earlier than we did. That aside...Benghazi has zero traction outside of righty media. Fox and GOP congresspeople have cried wolf far too many times.
Let's see, an Obama supporter that was very well regarded reports what he experienced and you choose to believe the administration without examination. Got it.
