It seems that CNN and CBS (post-Rath
er) sometimes have a limit to how much sh1t they'll shovel for Obama.
Other outlets, like the NY Times, ABC, MSNBC etc. have none whatsoever.

Big deal - CNN reports, a month after the fact, what has become obvious to everyone. They first allowed the meme to be set. This is just an attempt to CYA so they can claim how neutral and unbiased they are.
To: chessplayer
As usual in the MSM, everyone is to blame but Obama/Clinton.
Film's Fault
CIA's Fault
Intelligence Failure's Fault
OBAMA/CLINTON's FAULT!!!
All of the above followed by a coverup, lies and WHITEWASH!

The only acceptable outcome for the twin scandals of "Fast & Furious" and "Benghazi" is the firing of Holder and Clinton followed by either the resignation or impeachment of Oblamer.
Nixon was forced to resign for FAR less... Nobody died at Watergate...
Obama/Clinton/Holder are personally responsible for dozens of deaths including that of a US Ambassador - and the press is SILENT.

Knowing this administration’s past, we can’t rule out the likelihood that they knew about the planned attack and let it happen in order to blame the film so they could accomplish their goal of curtailing free speech in America. Think Fast and Furious ‘means to an end’. Dead people are just bumps in the road.

Be fair. They used the ambassadors diary weeks ago to point out he was concerned about a resurgent Al Quaida in Libya.

IF ( yes, that's spelled with a big if ) IF ?
This so called " Innocents of Muslims " film was the culprit that caused all the mayhem by these " Spontaneous " attacks in Libya and Egypt that the meme from this Administration says it happen,
How then ?
How can they explain all the other attacks in Benghazi in earlier months leading up to 9/11/12 ?
Other films maybe ?
If ? the reasoning and explanation of this administration stands,
Then ?
Would there not be other " FILMS " that would have cause a " spontaneous response " of those other earlier attacks in Benghazi ? right ?
So ? How can this administration explain the other earlier attacks in Benghazi ? other films that offended Muslims ?
Where are those other films ?
To: American Constitutionalist
If they’re not going after Obama because he’s black, then that’s pretty insulting and condescending to blacks.

Funny, those of us with working intellects (apparently very rare in the White House) were worried about Al Qaeda in Libya even before Obama started (illegally) bombing Libya - IN SUPPORT OF AL QAEDA!

Fed up with having to continually eat crap sandwiches from the regime and yet still lose viewership, it seems as CNN wants to try to “differentiate” itself against its progressive competitors.

Better Question:
Was Ambassador Stevens killed by arms supplied by the Administration to Jihadists?
We did supply Ghaddafi’s opponents, who were known to include Al Qaeda members. Were the same guys and our arms used to kill the Ambassador who arranged the distribution of those same arms that killed him?

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2936225/posts “There is more to the story of Nakoula Basseley Nakoula than what we are told by the media. Court documents reveal that Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, producer of the movie Innocence of Muslims, partnered in a scheme with Eiad Salameh, my first cousin, a Palestinian Muslim from Beit Sahour in the Palestinian district of Bethlehem.
To prove my claim, I revealed Eiad Salameh long before this whole fiasco eruptedin 2008 and the first real reportage of Eiad and Nakoula was revealed on September 14th, 2012.
Now do I have your attention?...................”

IF these claims are true, and thus far I have found no reason to NOT believe, why were the Coptic Christians smeared as being the source of making this video? Obama sure knew all about this video as he advertised it day in and day out. The murders in Libya were blamed on this very video and now some in government are going to fix the problem by controlling ‘speech’?
Why I just got a forwarded email that says http://nation.foxnews.com/freedom-speech/2012/09/27/american-muslims-launch-petition-limit-free-speech?cmpid=NL_FiredUpFoxNation
At this point this appears to be orchestrated from the highest levels of governments, maybe CNN can follow the well advertised trails back to the organizers.

If you go back and listen carefully to what Hillary said, you will notice she contradicts herself in her statement.
She makes the claim the attack was spontaneous because of the video, but implies the attack was planned by someone intent on hurting the Obama administration.
This was set up to make it appear as if Romney and the repubs had collaborated with the terrorist to make Obama look like Peanuts Carter.
