Ex-White House Official On Benghazi: 'Dude, This Was Like Two Years Ago'

Moot said:
Didn't the military admit that they too thought the attack at Bengazi was part of the demonstrations taking place all over the ME?


Everyone but Issa and Chaffetz (both up for election) seem to agree that mistakes were made at Benghazi....but it wasn't a conspiracy. Dragging this on just makes republicans look desperate and moves them further into the fringe with the birthers and Alex Jones.

No they didn't. Coming the day after Brigadier General Lovell's testimony you have to have your head way way up in fantasy clouds or buried far into the sand to not know that. I'd say good try, but it was strictly speaking a pathetic try.

Oh yeah, the last guy did it so it must be ok for me too.

Pathetic if that's your best excuse.

Dude, but that was like a long long time ago.

No, American. The blatant arrogance belongs to those who have been passionately screaming "Benghazi" for political points the last few years, yet don't give one flying **** about those who died.

Hey Canadian person, you don't get to have an opinion on this one.

Sorry, but it was David Petraeus who "concocted" the video story.

....Representative Peter King, chairman of the House homeland security committee, emerged just after 9am to say the hearing before his committee was over. He said there were discrepancies between what Petraeus had previously told the committee about the Benghazi attack and what he said on Friday.

King said that earlier, Petraeus had said it was principally a reaction to an anti-Muslim video produced in the US; on Friday he said it was an attack by extremists.

Five days after the attack, the administration sent UN ambassador Susan Rice on the Sunday news shows to describe it as a spontaneous protest. Rice relied on initial intelligence that proved incorrect, and she is now under attack by some Republican senators who vow to block her if she's nominated as secretary of state when Hillary Clinton steps down. ...

The brazen arrogance is familiar isn't it? It's what we've come to expect of an elitist, egotistical, maniacal administration.

Yeah American. :2wave: Looks Like Tommy Two Tone forgot about the ongoing FBI investigation in Libya. You know the one where they are suppose to be getting some answers and of course doing what Obama said. Bringing those to justice that committed these acts.

Which I said the same in Grips thread too. You know how they like to use the same argument in all the threads.
 
An inside Obama operative actually answered a question about Benghazi with "Dude" and "like".

LOL, just think about that.

What is he, a 14-year-old from 1995?

Oh, I think both sides do. I heard a lot about Bush not breaking the law. And they were right, lying isn't illegal.

Still after George Bush!!! How do leftists get themselves so deep in denial that all rationality and pride, in fact, are thrown away to protect their political masters? Is it a genetic flaw?

Don't lose it. it's just a comparison. He's who came up on search of presidents who defied Congressional subpoenas. That's just the way it is. I can't change that.

But don't let it blind you to the point made.
 
Fenton said:
The source of the narrative isn't nearly as relevent as the WH's decision to perpetuate it as a legitimate explanation to the Benghazzi attack.

A United States Consulate and a American Ambassador were under assault by Terrorists and we get a snarky 15 year old on the Brett Bair show telling us Obama wasn't in the Situation room.

And then we get a lie about a video.

Heya Fenton. :2wave: Then we got that bit on that were trying to find out what was going on. Obama called it listening to the Chatter. Yet they knew what was going from the beginning. As well as that AQ had rebranded itself back in N Africa.



State Department: Ansar al Sharia an alias for AQAP

In 2000, Hassine became a co-founder of the Tunisian Combatant Group (TCG). According to the United Nations, the TCG was created "in coordination with" al Qaeda. Hassine reportedly met with both Osama bin Laden and Ayman al Zawahiri prior to the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. TCG operatives were involved in the Sept. 9, 2001 assassination of Northern Alliance commander Ahmed Shah Massoud. The assassination was an integral part of al Qaeda's Sept. 11 plot, as it removed a key American ally from the battlefield before the fight for Afghanistan even began.

Also in 2001, the TCG was implicated in several al Qaeda plots throughout Europe. [For more on the TCG and Ansar al Sharia Tunisia, see LWJ report, Al Qaeda ally orchestrated assault on US embassy in Tunisia.]

In Libya, multiple groups calling themselves Ansar al Sharia have popped up recently. A militia named Ansar al Sharia has been reportedly implicated in the Sept. 11, 2012 attack on the US consulate in Benghazi that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans.

The State Department says that Ansar al Sharia in Yemen is a "separate entity from Ansar al Sharia in Libya." According to a report published by the federal research division of the Library of Congress in August, one of these Ansar al Sharia groups "has increasingly embodied al Qaeda's presence in Libya, as indicated by its active social-media propaganda, extremist discourse, and hatred of the West, especially the United States."

That report, titled "Al Qaeda in Libya: A Profile," was produced under an agreement with the Defense Department's Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO). The report's authors document al Qaeda's extensive presence in Libya, finding that al Qaeda's senior leadership in Pakistan has dispatched operatives to the North African country to establish a clandestine terrorist network there.

The Defense Department's CTTSO concluded that al Qaeda is on the verge of a fully operational network inside Libya, and Ansar al Sharia is one of the brands employed by al Qaeda operatives.....snip~

Why, because he makes this egotistical liberal unqualified President and his entire administration look like the fools that they are? Is that the rub?

Which is why if you are of the stripe that wants to hear about how great this very qualified and thoughtful President is you probably tune-in to MSNBC to have the story reported to you by the ever professional and enlightening likes of Al Sharpton, Rachael Maddow and Chris Mathews.

Oh goodie another sentence to get turned into a talking point by the right (well discussing talking points by the way). The article makes it pretty clear he was saying he didn't remember (or at least much) about editing the talking points because it was two years ago and something that is done quite often. It wasn't on Benghazi (according to the article, outside of their baiting title), it was on talking points about Benghazi that is just a bit, by which I mean big, difference.

Of course like Hilary's "What does it matter," people who don't like the Obama administration don't care.

So promoting a false narrative over the way and reason 4 Americans died because it was Politically expedient is OK because " everyone does it " ?
 
I need a Honest Poster to help me out here.

Ofcourse that excludes all Liberals.

The E-mails was dated Sept 14.

How many "protest" over the video actually happened by Sept 14 ??

And how many were actual "attacks" ??

Because the E-mail specifically refers to "attacks" in the plural, right ?

Im just wondering if that E-mail was specifically refering to Cairo and Benghazzi ?

Anyone have a timeline of the events and protest before and after Cairo ?
