Obama on Benghazi: Believe Me or Your Lying Eyes (Or At Least Wait Until After the Election)
forbes ^ | 10/14 | paul roderick gregory

Posted on 10/14/2012 7:36:09 PM PDT by RummyChick

In Duck Soup, Groucho Marx pleads his innocence to his wealthy matronly fiancé, who catches him smooching with a show girl: “Who are you gonna believe, me or your own eyes?”

Since September 12, the Obama administration has been asking us to believe him, his press secretary, and his proxies that our Libyan ambassador and three other consulate officials were killed by a spontaneous mob driven into frenzy by an anti-Muslim film produced by an unknown Christian film maker. He asks that we not believe his state department or top intelligence officials who testify that this narrative is false. Nor should we notice the coincidence of the attack taking place on 9/11 or that this was revenge for the fifteen top al Qaeda leaders killed by drones under Obama. Of course, Obama spiking the “I-killed-Osama” football at the Democrat convention had nothing to do with this either. Nor did the Libyan President warn of impending violence three days earlier.

That story about the film inciting the Muslims had to come from some where originally.

I know Obama and his minions repeated it but does anyone know where it originated?

Col. Hunt On The Newest Libyan Revelations (huge coverup!)

Everyone was informed of the attack in Benghazi in real time. The President, Sec. State, the Pentagon, the CIA ... It's automatic, required by law and all logged.

U.S. President Speaks to U.N. About YouTube Video
14 days after Sept. 11th!

"They knew that trouble was imminent there too, according to this man who was right in the middle of it in Egypt on 9/11" (Radio interview with guy who was in Cairo on Sept. 11th. No one knew about the "video." Several Coptic priests were crucified in Egypt though.)

If he is thinking about burning hillary, he had better think about it. The investigation is being handled by state, and thus under the control of Hillary. She could speed it up or slow it down. It’s up to her. she could release a damning report then day after the election, or the day before.

He shouldn’t push the clintons. They already don’t like him.

Hillbilly tweeted about it on Sept. 11th using the Cairo embassy Twitter account. (You might recall Romney condemning it and the press going crazy on him.) AFAIK the Cairo embassy tweets were the first instance of an apology for the "video."

Senior administration official: The Cairo embassy’s statement does not reflect the view of the U.S. government; Update: Romney calls embassy statement “disgraceful”

The White House is disavowing a statement from their own Cairo embassy that apologized for anti-Muslim activity in the United States.

“The statement by Embassy Cairo was not cleared by Washington and does not reflect the views of the United States government,” a senior administration official told POLITICO…

“Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. Our commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear: There is never any justification for violent acts of this kind,” Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in a Tuesday statement.

This is a potentially huge scandal. Not as big as “Fast and Furious” but on this one, Obama cannot keep everything hidden.
It is already out there for the world to see.

It almost sounds like they had this excuse ready and waiting but then I don’t see how they could have known what was going to happen.

Obama can’t “just take his lumps”. This isn’t a case of poor judgement by not having enough security. Obama and Clinton were played by al-Qaeda and it resulted in dead Americans and compromised intelligence. That’s something that neither Obama nor Clinton can fess up to and just take their lumps. That’s stuff that ends your political career. Obama and Clinton are not going to fight. They’re in this together. They can’t fess up or it’s the end of their careers and the citizens of the US vote every Democrat out in this coming election. They have to lie and threaten and bluster and coverup and hope the election is over before the American people figure out that Democrats are toxic to your health. Obama wishes that he could just confess and take his lumps. It’s the missiles.

Pants On Fire: Obama Scrambles For Cover As Benghazi Lie Explodes

You know that apology tweet fits well with the theory that this was a set up gone wrong - a set up to get 0dumbo to get the ambassador released from being held hostage - a set up that went bad when, by chance, to SEALS were there and fought back... hence no capture just kill.

wow

Yes, it does fit well into the october surprise theory even better than I first thought.

There was no video causing a disturbance - so why would a state dept flunky tweet such?

That sounds like a plausible theory. What has me wondering is how they all came up with a story apparently made up of whole cloth almost immediately.

Then the story got so imbedded that for quite a while no one was even questioning it, at least no one I am aware of.

Seems like they did know what was going to happen. AND the tweet is fabricated nonsense. There was no video that caused a riot.

I read somewhere [maybe here] that this was a planned october surprise gone wrong when two SEALS who happened to have been there fought back. It was supposed to be an ambassador hostage resolved by obama.

why was a tweet sent that was false?
why was ambassador there?
why was he without adequate protection?

It seems the more we know the stranger it seems and it seems to be getting stranger and stranger.

It was questioned here immediately. The first time we read it we knew it was bogus and the fighting was still going on.

They had it ready and waiting - preplanned.

I'm not sure I can ascribe anything so evil. What small group of people is so evil?...

How many do you think would have to be informed to implement such a heinous plan? Who would they be?
