Susan Rice defends Benghazi interviews on 60 Minutes

LOL !!

Wow.....I mean it was televised and everything. What's worse than Hillary' indifference are the millions of Americans who are willing to give her a pass on the whole Benghazi issue.

An OBVIOUS cover up and perpetuation of a flat out false narrative right before a Presidential election and people like you have no qualms with it. Susan Rice making the rounds days after EVERYONE knew it was a terrorist attack. It was UNREAL. Even I couldn't believe that Obama and Hillary were that blatantly corrupt.

They obviously thought Americans in general were so innately stupid that a ridiculous story about a protest would cover their sorry asses. Why else would they offer up that ridiculous excuse ? NO ONE believed that it was a "protest gone awry ".

So you would rather take up for a sub-human who would chose to cover her own ass, perpetuate a narrative that was obviously a lie, to the point of Lying to the faces of the parents who lost their sons on her watch than hold a GREAT EXAMPLE of a corrupt politician accountable for her actions ? ( She told one of the Fathers that he they were going to arrest and prosecute the guy that made that video )

Because her candidacy is more important than the truth behind the 4 Americans that were killed by a obvious terrorist attack....UNREAL.

Modern day Democrats are so absolutely twisted, so devoid of any substantial moral core. Integrity must be just a passing annoyance for liberals, quickly subverted as the calculate the amount of lies and diversions needed for damage control.

Iv'e said it a thousands times and its true, Liberal Democrat Progressives use their ideology to define the truth. Conservatives use truth to define their ideology.


Dude...who do you think you are convincing with your right-wing radio propaganda? Do you actually believe it yourself?
There is good reason why these talking points have failed time and again.....because Americans see right through the propaganda. I hate to break it to ya....but it isn't just "liberal democrat progressives" that have rejected these talking points....it is Liberals, moderates, independents. even many conservatives. The only people buying this rhetoric are the extreme right-wing wackos....and even most of them, I don't think REALLY believe it...they just feel a compelling need to spout off the talking points again...hoping that maybe....just maybe.....they might stick....even though it hasn't happen the first 4392 times they've tried it. Maybe 4393 is the charm!
 
Here is the entire statement:
With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided that they’d they go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make? It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, Senator. Now, honestly, I will do my best to answer your questions about this, but the fact is that people were trying in real time to get to the best information. The IC has a process, I understand, going with the other committees to explain how these talking points came out. But you know, to be clear, it is, from my perspective, less important today looking backwards as to why these militants decided they did it than to find them and bring them to justice, and then maybe we’ll figure out what was going on in the meantime.

When you read the statement in context it becomes pretty clear, at least for most Americans, why the right-wing attempts to spin this never gained any ground....because the lies they spouted were not based in reality. I find it hilarious that after failing to perpetuate this fraud on the American public over and over....you guys are STILL trying to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Good luck guys!!!

Still waiting for those militants to "brought to justice", but then again, it was one of those Obama sound bites where he "vows to get to the bottom of this horrendous issue ", only to completely blow ot off as a non-event months later.

Oh puh-lease.....look how long it took us to bring Bin Laden to Justice. GWB couldn't get the job done for 7 years...and left it to Obama to clean up. When 7 years go by.....then you can talk.

Right wing radio didn't attack that Embassy, and Right Wing radio didn't, right before a Presidential election, conspire to present a massive false narrative to the American People for the terrorist attack that cost 4 Americans their lives, including our Ambassador.

Let me qualify this for you. For the first time in our Countries History, the Executive branch decided to present to Millions of Americans, including the Families of those who were killed, an measured and constructed false account of a "protest gone awry" as a legitimate explanation of what happened in Benghazi right before a Presidential election.

And they did it for one reason, because it was politically expedient. Of-course Millions of Americans already knew that it was a organized terrorist attack
, but Obama and his Chicago thug cronies didn't think the families of those killed or Millions of Americans deserved the truth.


It shows you how corrupt the Democrat party has become. It's a party utterly void of moral and ethical constraints as it continues to represent a unprecedented level of corruption and lies. From the IRS targeting innocent AMERICANS based on their political affiliation, to Holder perjuring himself TWICE in front of a Congressional Committee to Fast and Furious to the Billions that were "lost' in Obama' Green energy scam.

Keep it up guys because eventually the truth is going to come out, I mean Obama's legacy is sh** already, but wait until all of this washes out.

And your'e one to talk about lies and hypocrisy as you continue to parrot the long since debunked talking points that were rolled out by the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton right before the election.

I know better than to believe Hillary, Obama or any Democrat politician. I knew it was BS from the get go and I don't like Politicians lying to me, so what's your excuse ?
 
Oh puh-lease.....look how long it took us to bring Bin Laden to Justice. GWB couldn't get the job done for 7 years...and left it to Obama to clean up. When 7 years go by.....then you can talk.

LOL !!!

You'll always have that !!!

LOLOLOL....!!! Bin Laden to justice huh ? How desperate are you people for a success story ? You realize all of the footwork including the water-boarding that led to the intelligence that made the whole thing possible happened under the Bush administration.

Don't you remember when you folks were clamoring for jail sentences for Bush and Cheney because they used "torture" to pry information out of a terrorist ? I do.

Now it's suddenly ok, huh ? When it leads to Obama's one and only "accomplishment".
 
LOL....you probably also bought the lie that Iraq was involved in 911......

Oh...I get it....you are one of THOSE....you know....."911 was Clinton's fault", "GWB captured and killed Bin Laden and led this country to economic utopia".

Sorry....but the facts say otherwise. Bush failed to get Bin Laden because he took his eye off the prize. Obama made bringing Bin Laden to justice the focus of his international policy...and got the job done. There is ZERO....ZERO support for your assertion that the intelligence to capture Bin Laden was gained by water boarding.....that is just another one of the right-wing propaganda lies that you either swallowed unthinkingly....or are just simply parroting back.

No, I'm one of the Millions of Americans who knew that the Benghazi "protest' was a terrorist attack almost immediately after it happened.

I also knew that Obama' and Hillary's attempt to redefine what happened by pushing Susan Rice out on a Bull Sh** tour was a unprecedented example of blatant corruption by the Executive branch that could only be explained by the premise that Obama and the Democrats KNEW their voters were dumb enough to believe the lie.

And that everyone else, who knew that it was a constructed BS story was NOT or was ever going to be a Obama supporter.

I have the luxury of sitting back on watching people like you flail and fumble as you try to defend the indefensible. All I have to do is be honest, objective and point out the obvious. I'm not forced, by my blind adherence to a corrupted Political ideology to defend what has to be the most corrupt Administration in our Nations short history.

And I'm not exaggerating. Like I said, the truth will eventually come out,( Benghazi, IRS and Fast and Furious among other things ) and that's going to be right around the time that people like you show up and forums claiming you "knew all along and never defended the corruption "

Remember, Democrats have no core moral standing, they'll twist and turn and alter their story and perception based on the evidence presented. It must be exhausting.

And if you want to blame Clinton on 9/11, you can make a reasonable case for it by pointing to the existence of specific barriers that were set in place by his Fannie Mae Vice Chair appointee Jamie Gorelick.

LOL.....then why has the overwhelming majority of America not accepted your propaganda? LOL...oh....now I expect to hear something from you about the "Mainstream Media".....that is usually the next talking point/excuse that gets thrown out by your type.
 
Are you guys still trying that tired old spin? The reality is, most of America understand the comment when taken in context. Your spin hasn't worked yet....why do you keep trying the same failed lines?

there was no "context", there was "spontaneous demonsration" i.e. no mention of the Ansar al-Sharia ties.
Recall State Dept notified the WH Situation room during the attack of this INTEL.

Most Americans couldn't find Libya on a map, muchless understand the "kinetic military action" (Obama's name for that war)
was an utter failure.
I'm sure you still think of it as "liberating" Libya, 'eh?
 
When a leftist is whupped, as you are in the case, it's time to change the subject.

LOL.....good one. The reality is....you guys are just typical Republicans.....keep trying the same failed thing and expect different results. You guys have gotten nowhere with your feigned Benghazi outrage the first 2393 times you tried it....why in God's name do you think that you can sell the BS the 2394 time?

Even a partisan lefty like you has to cringe when Hillary opens her fat mouth and dribble like "What difference does it make." comes out and you want her to be our next president. Shame on you DD.

Navy.....be honest for one minute. Do you actually believe that this is what Hilary was saying? Honestly? Why don't you actually take a look at the entire conversation in context rather than just listening to the Limbaugh spin on it.
BTW....if Hilary decides to run, she WILL be our next President.....no question about it.

That was also the thinking in 2006. Not sure she will get out of the primary as the Democratic candidate.

We had two Bush's not sure we want or need another dynasty.

Most Americans don't have a clue what happened.

Irrespective of what Americans do or don't know, the attack and destruction of Libya changed global dynamics. The US and Obama are no longer trusted, and Syria was the proof of that. The world knows of what we did in Libya .. every bit as insidious as what we did in Iraq. Obama is no longer trusted on foreign policy .. and he's hated throughout much of Africa .. where George Bush is more respected.

Susan Rice LIED just as Colin Powell LIED us into war and destruction.

Just because you don't know that doesn't mean that it isn't known.

... yeah ... she was saying it doesn't matter who did it or why they did it (and reductively, who lied about it and why).
There's no getting around it and the context doesn't help.

arrogant hubris, much like Hilary testimony where she throws up her hands and the famous "what does it matter" line.

They were caught lying, and they just can't admit it, so they dissemble - isn't that correct "Susan"

The official administration line is essentially, 'let's not dwell on the past.' This, of course, is ridiculous. It's important to review situations, actions, and mistakes following any operation, surprise, and obviously anything that involves loss of life or damage to government property so that corrections can be made, sack people that messed up, promote people that performed well, review policies, uncover things that are unclear, etc.

I bet Anadarko would love for this administration to say 'what difference at this point does it make' relating to the gulf oil spill, or JP Morgan relating to the mortgage crisis.

Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (APC): Anadarko Petroleum - With Blood In The Streets It Is Time To Take Action - Seeking Alpha

Attorney General Eric Holder Targets More Bank Prosecutions Using The J.P. Morgan Case As A Model

Somehow I doubt that this administration will take such a cavalier attitude in favor of not dwelling on the past with respect to these cases.

The trend that has been established looks like 'If the government messes up, we will do everything we can to sweep it under the rug, if anyone else messes up, we will hammer them.' It is a matter of consistency.
 
That was also the thinking in 2006. Not sure she will get out of the primary as the Democratic candidate.

We had two Bush's not sure we want or need another dynasty.

Not really.....I know some people thought that....but a lot of people saw it as a close race between her and Obama.....

No...that wasn't what she was saying at all. Read the interview in context rather than rely on what your right-wing radio pundits are telling you. What she was saying is that the reason for the attack is less important than the fact that a number of Americans were killed. She was saying it is more important to find out who did it and bring them to justice than to sit around debating why the attack occurred.

Clinton: With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided that they’d they go kill some Americans? (notice she left out "terror attack)What difference at this point does it make? (there's the money quote she had hoped would be picked up by her supporters - and some deadenders continue to hang in there) It is our job to figure out what happened (pretty much just contradicted her previous statement here) and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, (and so once again contradicts herself ... can't learn from something when you can't decide if the who or why matters or it doesn't matter) Senator. Now, honestly, I will do my best to answer your questions about this, but the fact is that people were trying in real time to get to the best information.

There's your context ... ya gotta deal with it ... the woman is a lying sack of contradictions and blind political ambition.

Yep....that is the context (minus your attempts at spin)...and the reason why the vast majority of American never bought into your guys attempts at spinning this into some kind of scandal. But you keep trying....maybe by the time you've tried it 4000 times you might can some traction...LOL.....

Sooooo ... reconcile these statements ... but please don't hurt yourself ...

"Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided that they’d they go kill some Americans?"
"What difference at this point does it make?"
"It is our job to figure out what happened"

for 98% of Americans it is pretty easy to figure out. For you fringers.....you can keep desperately trying to cling to this and hope that one day you guys might make something out of it...but I'll break it to you....it ain't ever going to happen....because when you take away your feigned Limbaugh/Hannity spin it is clear. Sorry to be the one that brings you back to earth.
