White House Contacted Youtube DURING Benghazi Attack.[W:324]

Re: White House Contacted Youtube DURING Benghazi Attack.

Do you really believe that the nonsense you just posted will help to unify Americans?

No, my hope was to expose what I believe to be an underlying issue which yes can deter the unification of America, and more so the WORLD. My signature is for humanity, not just Americans. It's a big hopeful signature, but one I wish even if it takes 10000 years will become a reality.
 
Re: White House Contacted Youtube DURING Benghazi Attack.

does knowing the name of the person help answer any questions beyond satisfying the need of finding someone to blame

Absolutely, because I dont want something like this happening again. We can't have people like that making these decisions.

Heya USC. :2wave: Those Depositions are what the Demos will hate most, forces them to be ethical.......then they can't change nor twist anything said nor what they say. So they best start studying those timelines that are out there. Just sayin.

Indeed, dems being held accountable for their words aren't happy people, are they? Spin isn't going to work.

White House Contacted YouTube During Benghazi Attack, Darrell Issa Says



It would appear that the White House was aware of this video before these attacks even began. I'm not sure what this means in the greater scheme of things. Anyone care to weigh in?

I don't know, I think what bothered me then is the President running off to Las Vegas for a fund raiser immediately after Benghazi. This for me kind of showed he didn't care. But as for the rest, I prefer to sit, watch and listen. There is way too much that I and every poster here do not know. That is unless they were part of what was happening at the time. Each party puts it own spin one what each e-mail means or doesn't mean. That leaves the masses confused.

Here are some very interesting results on Benghazi by the polling firms of Anderson Robbins Research (D) / Shaw & Company Research (R). Apparently most Americans think the Special Committee is a good thing, that the Obama administration lied, but also that the Republicans are only doing this for political gain, that they are not really interested in getting to the truth. Now it all makes sense, no it don’t!

Do you approve or disapprove of Congress establishing a special committee to investigate the U.S. government’s decisions and activities surrounding the September 11, 2012 terrorist attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya that killed four Americans?
Approve 67%
Disapprove 28%
(Don’t know) 4%

In the aftermath of the Benghazi terrorist attacks, the Obama administration incorrectly claimed it was a spontaneous assault in response to an online video, even though the administration had intelligence reports that the attacks were connected to terrorist groups tied to al Qaeda. Do you think the Obama administration knowingly lied about the attacks to help the president during the ongoing re-election campaign, or not?
Yes 51%
No 39%
(Don’t know) 11%

Do you think Republicans in Congress who are investigating the Benghazi terrorist attacks are mostly doing it to get to the truth about what happened or are they mostly doing it for political gain?
Get to the truth 30%
For Political gain 63%
(Don’t know) 7%

Oh I don't think it was about caring at all - he cares. It was about priorities... Vegas and fund raising was more important.

Sure, when fighting a 'dirty' opponent, you have to get dirty too.
 
Re: White House Contacted Youtube DURING Benghazi Attack.

Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., Issa’s Democratic counterpart on the oversight committee and a newly chosen member of the select committee, blasted Issa for discussing the YouTube-related email.

“This latest document leak makes the strongest case yet for Democrats seeking procedures to protect against these kinds of abuses,” he said in a statement. “In what has become an irresponsible pattern, Chairman Issa unilaterally released a cherry-picked document excerpt – claiming it means one thing when in fact it means the opposite.”


This coming from a guy whose behavior in the IRS scandal was lets say questionable ethically.

share with us what ethical violations were committed by cummings
 
Re: White House Contacted Youtube DURING Benghazi Attack.

Theres no need to speculate. What we know is not consistent with the White Houses testimony-and that alone warrants further investigation. And as far as what we dont know, theres much that this investigation, like who pushed the video? The White House says the CIA, the CIA has shown it did not, and now information released only under threat of litigation also contradicts the white house line.

If that's so, I'd guess the video push came from the WH as a security measure.
 
Re: White House Contacted Youtube DURING Benghazi Attack.

That is another way to put it. It sure left a bad impression on me though.

LOL, seriously, I think this whole thing ought to be at getting at the truth, if there is such a thing as the truth. But everything done in Washington is done in the search for votes. So I suppose your little analogy applies quite nicely.

The email letters to the IRS and his behavior in trying to quickly shut down the investigation is very suspicious. If you want to argue he's innocent until proven guilty and he hasn't as of yet been convicted of anything. Fine. In regards to the links below, I realize Fox News (and MSNBC) are very biased networks but they can be useful in such things as the IRS and Christie scandals.

thus far you have been unable to show any ethical lapse by cummings in that irs investigation
unless you can offer something substantive, i can only conclude you are making **** up about any ethics violations on his part

Yeah, I'm making up the emails from his office. Believe he's a saint, I don't give a flip.

you apparently don't give a flip about the truth
you insisted cummings committed an ethics violation
now, when pressed to evidence it, you cannot do so
quit making **** up

Why don't you accept the emails and the news reports already made not proof enough?

I stated his behavior was "questionable ethically" and "suspicious". Nice strawman.

Rubbishing others is not the fastest way to unite humanity.

He only said they were 'very suspicious'.
 
Re: White House Contacted Youtube DURING Benghazi Attack.

So where is the impeachment hearing then? You'd think with "all this stuff" coming out there would be some charges filed. Or is this just a partisan witchhunt like it appears to be?

Ooh....


So now you want an impeachment hearing to justify an investigation?

Please, no more idiot games, OK? Have you ever thought that what may be at the end of this is no more than one sleepy communications clerk in the White House basement?

The hysterical left doesn't get it. This is not a witch hunt but a group of legislators, most of them very experienced, most of them lawyers, 6 of them Democrats who want all the information to come out, if for no other reason than it never happens again.

In the meantime, the hysterical left goes from insisting it is "old news" to claiming bull**** like this is just another attack on an embassy to implying that there is o reason to look at all unless you have enough information to impeach.

You demand proof of this, proof of that and protect a slimy, lying president who is refusing to co-operate, and playing a public relations "cover up" game through the slithering **** off Jay Carney. You can't prove **** until first you research and this is exactly what these duly and democratically elected congressmen are trying to do.

Now, please stop whining and get out of the way of the democratic process enshrined in the constitution and start worrying about November.

White House Contacted YouTube During Benghazi Attack, Darrell Issa Says

It simply means that the Obama administration was planning a cover up while the attack was going on. Someone in the white house likely said: "Let's blame it on the video".
 
Re: White House Contacted Youtube DURING Benghazi Attack.

I think that helps to prove that the WH really did believe the video had something to do with the attacks...just like they said. And according to the CIA the video could still be the reason for the attack. So until they catch those responsible for the attacks....no one, not even Issa with all his ridiculous wasteful hearings and investigations can say what the motive for the attack was.

Basically you are admitting that you think The Obama administration is "stupid".
 
Re: White House Contacted Youtube DURING Benghazi Attack.

The video had already sparked demonstrations elsewhere in the Middle East. Was is so far out of the realm of possibility, at the time, that someone might have thought this to be an extension of those demonstrations? Are you a mind reader?
