    Your right. But no one on the Left is going to admit that errors were made. They would rather lie about it than admit the truth.

    Everything is and always was self-explanatory.Just like with all things
    Dimocrats touch.Dimocrats would manage to screw-up a peanut butter
    & jelly sammich.
    This is getting exhausting.Having to waste time out of each day trying to
    explain what a bunch of horse'e ass these Lying Dimocrats are.
    That's it in a nutshell.Take it to the bank.
    Dimocrats are LIARS.
    Dimcrats Cheat.
    Dimocrats screw-up everything they touch.
    Then they Lie about it and play pin the tail on the Republicans.
    What more is there to this Cockeyed bunch of corrupt Democrats.

    Now we have ABSOLUTE PROOF that Obama, himself, was involved in concocting the LIES after the fact, in addition to Hillary Clinton.

    I feel sad for you folks. You hate of Obama really clouds your thinking. Nuland may have been trying to protect the State House but, if there was strong evidence at the time and not just assumptions, the CIA would not have deleted the references to Al Qaeda. Actually the opposite happened under Bush. The CIA accepted false claims by Cheney in order to push for war in Iraq. If the CIA had stated that Al Qaeda were responsible for the attack, the right would have demanded that we go to war in Libya. Nuland was saying until we know the real facts, we should not give the right reasons to demand war.

    BTW, it did not change what happened and everyone knew that it was a terrorist attack by October. There was no coverup and to compare it to Nixon's coverup makes no sense. Nixon's coverup started before his reelection and continued after his reelection. He covered up in order to be reelected. That was his real crime.

    Now, Tom, logic is lost on real Obama haters. They just needed a thread to rant on the Administration.

    That does appear to be a liklihood.Since it may boil down to who actually gave the
    STAND DOWN order.Most those who know exactly how chain-of-command and
    protocol operate insist only a President can authorize such an order { Stand Down }.
    But then Hillary is without question directly responsible for any Embassy and
    any Ambassador.Remember her going On and on about the " Arb " .
    Well the " arb " this and that " arb " that and here an " arb " and there an " arb "
    and " arb " " Arb " " ARB " all my live long days.
    However ... how strange that the * " Arb " never even mentions Hillary or
    Obama.Hillary was not even interviewed by those running that " Arb ".
    Yet no bigger defender of that YouTube video were Obama and Hillary
    even using it at the draped coffin return of one of the brave men killed,where
    Obama and Hillary acted all sad & gloomy for the cameras.
    I hope this boils down to an Intra-administration fight between Obama and
    Hillary and who will be made to " Stand Down " with their Careers and reputation.
    What a fitting and Ironic end to what this Country has had to endure with these
    abject incompetent and arrogant authoritarians.

    Again ... the sheer Irony of it all.Obama promising to do everything in his
    power to help Congress get to the bottom of Benghazi.
    Now we have Speaker Boehner literally holding Obama to that claim {pledge}.
    Boehner insisting on all memo/e-mail from within the state dept. and this
    White House that would clear all this kerfuffle.
    Seems Barry has a bit of a kerfuffle up his wazoo at the moment.

    rice admitted to errors long ago

    [video=youtube;KSB1O01fG_U]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSB1O01fG_U[/video]

    Rice Concedes Error on Libya; G.O.P. Digs In - November 27, 2012

    But the senators seemed anything but mollified, signaling instead that they would still oppose Ms. Rice, the ambassador to the United Nations, if she is nominated by President Obama, even after she conceded errors in the account of the assault she gave on Sunday morning television programs shortly after it occurred in September.

    Well, here's another question that I want to be answered: Did anyone in the State Department or in the Obama administration in general, threaten any of the Benghazi witnesses in any way? Gregory Hick's lawyer is "hinting" that he WAS threatened.

    That is simply false. Bush's approval rating went to nearly 85% after 9/11. Your claim in completely false.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Mr Hicks denied it under oath on Wednesday. Besides, Hick's "lawyer" is a Republican poltical operative who is at the center of this campaign. She's one of the people orchestrating this.

    Nixon resigned over a botched 2nd hand burglary attempt.

    Obama should resign over 4 dead americans, the cover up, and the American people being lied to.


    Its that simple. Its time to move on.

    For starters I'll easily take the word of Victoria Toesning over All those
    Humpty Dumpty Crooks who operate under Obama's marching orders.

    This was too covered up for Obama's re-election. We were lied to about what had really happened, we were lied to about the stand down order, we were lied to about what really went on.

    wake up. I know you have alot of personal investment in Obama, but he is a failure, a liar and does whatever he can to lie.

    Dude,

    It can't be real times of war if the right is not willing to burden the wealthiest, with wartime tax rates.

    And that would make Joe Biden president. Wow! No wonder he was chosen as running mate.

    I believe the Right needs to pass religious morals tests before condemning anyone else on moral grounds. How many theocracies actually have laws against the abomination of hypocrisy in modern times? If they don't care about that timeless moral, why should anyone have any confidence in the sincerity of allegedly, the People of religion.

    Nice, real facts, that prove stuff, or at least support a case.

    So far I think this is the post like that in this whole thread.

    The fact is this is part of the GOP 2016 campaign, they don't have anything real, but hearings where people hint that Hillary Clinton was derelict in her duty provide the atmospherics of the hint of scandal.

    Victoria Toensing is a parter with her husband in the K street poltical form of DeGenova and Toensing. She has a long history of being involved in orchestrated right wing hit campaigns going all the way back to Monica Lewinsky. She also played a role of sorts in the Swift Boat Liars for Bush.

    This has nothing to do with protecting whileblower's rights, and everything to do with shopping talking points. Toensing first waved this bloody shirt two weeks ago. The objective was to promote the idea that the State Department was hiding something. No evidence has ever been provided that they did, nor that they coherced her client (whose bills are undoubtedly being paid by Fox News, where Toensing is a contributor).

    The objective was to build anticipation and ratings in advance of the hearings, on the expectation that there would be earth shattering revalations.

    But there were none.

    So, Toensing is back to beathing the dead horse, to keep the faithful invested in the meme.

    This is her MO by the way. It's not the first of these campaigns she's run.

    WTF? Put down the bong. So , what IS the acceptable level of LYING from the Obama Adm.?

    LYING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, including Sec. of State Clinton doing so under oath, to coverup the gross negligence/incompetence of this Adm. in the events leading to the assasination of a US Ambassador, is FAR MORE than a "morals" issue.

    NIXON RESIGNED for LESS...a LOT LESS..

    Other than the FACT that her SWORN testimony is COMPLETLY CONTRADICTED by a State Dept. cable with her signiture on it, denying increased security to the then US-diplomat to Libya, in Spring, 2012.

    And there's no "proof" of the White House LYING about how they FABRICATED their "cover story", other than their OWN EMAILS contradicintg their PUBLIC STATEMENTS.

    Yeah, other than those "little details", I guess you're right. :roll:

    But... Hicks did claim he was demoted as a result of lawyering up to testify.

    I wonder which is BS and which has at least some truth to it.
