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

You understand the implication of Hillary and Obama hammering out a false narrative about a Video while our Consulate was still under attack dont you ?

Hillary sent out a Press release that night about a Video, while the State Department confirmed that a group loyal to Al Qaeda was responsible.

Benghazzi is being "pushed" because lying to the American public and the Family members over the death of four American because it was Politically expedient is a despicable act.

Hillary and Obama both understand that they can offer up any excuse they want for what happened, including the ridiculous idea that this was all based on a youtube video!!, and know that a significant portion of the American public, the leftists, will believe and defend them. The truth is not important so long as you have a committed following.
 
It's well past time somebody asks him directly.

Who should that someone be? People have been asking that question for years, and various answers have been given by numerous insiders, who may or may not really know. It seems fair that if you want an answer about where someone was at a given time, why not ask that person directly? If he truly had retired for the night because he had an early morning trip to make, then let's hear it!

Greetings, humbolt. :2wave:

What's truly fascinating about the Rhodes email is who received the copies. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/int...use-advisor-to-spin-blaming-benghazi-on-film/

Why would Mehdi K. Alhassani receive a copy?

That's a very good question. Reading the email, it did have a number of items / lines / points specific to Egypt. But then, why would the administration want to share such an internal memo, and have classified no less (Keep it from Republicans? The public?), with the Muslim Brotherhood?

Yeah, Obama may have claimed to want to be the most open and transparent administration in history, but I guess he was lying again.

Fifty percent of White House reporters say a White House official has lied to them and 42 percent agree that the Obama White House is "the most secretive" they've ever covered while only 20 percent disagree, according to a new survey by Politico Magazine.

The survey, based on a lengthy questionnaire filled out by 61 correspondents who cover the presidency, shows a deep skepticism toward the Obama administration and reflects a tension between the media and the president and his aides – a situation that has been customary over the years regardless of who was in the Oval Office.

do you know what no orders to hold that understaffed, non-firebase, at Any cost, means?

Orders, no orders, our people were under assault. Surelt you're blaming the embassy personel?
 
GOP Rep. Buck McKeon, Chair of Armed Services, and several of his members, see nothing new here with ISSA.
McKeon also dissed the new "select" committee on hyperpartisanship chaired by Gowdy, meant to appease the TEAs .

Hey, Pol. It's the type of question that should be asked at a press conference. Of course, finding a reporter to ask it is something else altogether.
 
why do you believe it is irrelevant in any given military scenario?

were there any orders to hold that understaffed, non-firebase, at Any cost.

This wasn't any given military scenario. It was a particular event. And your point remains irrelevant.
 
benghazi was not a isolated event.

Sure it was. Nowhere else during the unrest was anything of that nature undertaken. There's a remarkable difference between getting hit with a rock and getting hit with a mortar round. Rocks just lay around here and there. Mortars generally don't. I've never seen a heavy machine gun just laying in the street gutters, and I've been a lot of places in that area of the world.
 
who was supposed to "bail them out", if not the military?

Military personel were waiting for orders. They didn't get any. If that's exculpatory to you, then I recommend you serve in our military or foreign service in a similar place under similar circumstances. Those who have served in such capacities understand that things look quite a bit different when it happens to be you that's on the firing line. Up until now, it's why we have said we don't leave ours behind, and we don't leave them twisting in the wind. By your comments, I don't expect that is something you would even have a passing familiarity with.

But we're talking about Benghazi, and not the assault on the American people. Two different events.

You might be talking of whatever fantasy of the day, I was ridiculing the pointless question of "Where was he when it happened?"
