Carney: We Didn't Lie About Libya, We Just Had Different Facts At the Time
Town Hall ^ | 9/27/12 | Katie Pavlich

Posted on 09/27/2012 5:22:26 PM PDT by Nachum

During a press gaggle on board Air Force One this morning in Virginia Beach, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney accused Mitt Romney of "politicizing" the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi in reference to pressure from the campaign to come clean about what really happened. Carney also referred reporters to an ongoing FBI investigation when asked about specifics on Libya. The problem? The FBI still isn't in Benghazi despite the administration saying repeatedly they are. Carney also tried to spin Obama's refusal to call the attack an act of terrorism and covered for the administration in its lie to the American people that the attack was "spontaneous" and not planned.

Q On Benghazi, there still is considerable confusion over what the administration considers the attack on the U.S. consulate. Can you say why the FBI still hasn’t been able to get into that crime scene? And how aggressively is the United States looking for clues, and as the President says, bringing them to justice?

MR. CARNEY: I would have to refer you to the FBI for specifics about the investigation that they’re leading. I can tell you that the President is determined, as he has said many times, that the perpetrators of the attack that cost four American lives, including our ambassador, be brought to justice. And he will insist that the agencies of his administration take all necessary action to bring about that eventuality.

” Carney also referred reporters to an ongoing FBI investigation when asked about specifics on Libya.”

Since the FBI isn’t yet in Libya , the FBI investigation may take a while , at least past the election.

Isn’t this the same technique used by Holder during “FAST and FURIOUS” ... /s

And of course the lap dog media, ignoring they sat in the same room while Carney repeatedly lied to them about this, merely meakly lapped up this latest does of Obama vomit.

Well, as the dems themselves like to say:
You’re entitled to your own opinion
but you’re not entitled to your own facts.

"Actually the joke's on you because we didn't lie.
The facts are that we're just stupid and incompetent."

When Romney spoke about the OTHER embassy’s pandering comments, Obama AND all the media attacked him for speaking before he had ALL THE FACTS.

Now Obama is officially admitting that they’ve been speaking for WEEKS without knowing the facts, lying repeatedly. And the media accepts that as a perfectly reasonable explanation.

Most Presidents after their election allow the ex President to fly home in Air Force One, I hope Romney tells Obama to catch a commercial flight back to Chicago.

Only if the current president is on the flight is it Air Force 1 or Marine 1.

>> We Just Had Different Facts At the Time

I.e., “the film”.

These asswipes decided it was better to piss on the 1st Amendment than to withhold comment concerning the obvious chaos.

And they will keep redefining these “facts” until they think they have some that resonate...
