President Barack Obama revealed at his press conference this afternoon that he is responsible for sending U.N. ambassador Susan Rice to speak to the American people a few days after the September 11 Benghazi terror attack.

"As I said before, she made an appearance at the request of the White House in which she gave her best understanding of the intelligence that had been provided to her," Obama said at the press conference, defending the statements the ambassador to the U.N. made regarding the Benghazi attack.

Rice has been widely criticized for giving misleading statements about Benghazi. She maintained that the killing of four Americans stemmed for a spontaneous protest that got violent.

"Obama: I Made Susan Rice Talk to the American People About Benghazi (in exchange for her promotion to Secretary of State)"

Congress should ask Rice, under OATH: "Did the President promise you a promotion in exchange for saying 'a protest over a video' on the Sunday news programs?"

So he sent her out to spread lies? He should be impeached for sending an ambassador to the media to spread lies. He made her look like an idiot. Why do we want an idiot or a willfully ignorant person to represent the US as SOS?

Dig a little deeper O.

If she has one ounce of integrity, she will decline the nomination. If it is offered.

If I found out that my boss used me this way, I would resign.

He lied to the Beyotch and made her repeat it.
Sounds like a coverup to me!

Well, at least that's been cleared up.

We now know who told her to publicly and repeatedly lie about Benghazi. The president did. That's who.

He stated during the debate that he called the attack an act of terror. Now he states she was acting on their best intelligence. Okay so which is it? Especially since Candy Crowley helped him to what was likely his best moment during the debates.
Second since the perps took immediate credit for the act why the lie? Lets see you might lie if you knew who they were but they didn’t know. That would be smart. It might help you catch them. But we knew! They told us! The only people fooled,tricked,kept in the dark were the American people and we all know what that has to do with. It’s only about one thing and that was his narrative going into the election that he helped make the middle east safer.

Obama’s war on women continues.

He wants them to poison themselves, kill their babies, be psychologically scarred for life, and now he asks them to spread lies on his behalf. He is a little man.

Hi ya Dog!

The Marxist can’t control his temper.
Now, he’s on record lying.
Notice he couldn’t answer the direct question about their pleas for help?
THAT means he didn’t give the order! He left them to die!

So, if Zero told Rice to lie, did he also tell Petraeus to lie?

Petraues told the House Intelligence Committee on September 13 that the video done it, so I'm sure that Zero was confidant that he had Davy in his back pocket, should anyone question Rice's statement. Zero could claim, well, the CIA Director said it was the video.

And if Davy was being blackmailed by Barry at this point? Apparently Davy was being told he could keep his job and that everything would be kept quiet if he played ball on Benghazi, and it seems he was doing just that.

He hid behind a skirt to put out his lie for him.

And now he pretends to defend her against those Big, Bad White Men, Graham and McCain (while omitting the name of Kelly Ayotte as one of the senators questioning Rice's role).

Awww. Poor wittle Susan Rice, can't defend herself, needs Big Brother Zero to pwotect her!
