WH: Obama 'Is Not Particularly Concerned' Whether Susan Rice Misled the American People
weeklystandard.com ^ | Nov. 28, 2012 | Daniel Halper

In response to a question from reporter Major Garrett on whether the Obama administration's mishandling of Benghazi raises "core questions of basic competency," press secretary Jay Carney revealed that Barack Obama "is not particularly concerned" about whether Susan Rice misled the American people:

"What the president is worried about, Major, is what happened and why in Benghazi. He is not particularly concerned about whether the ambassador or I went out and talked about the fact that we believed extremists might have been responsible.

"The press was eager to help in this treasonous murder.”

Yes, indeed. Krauthammer rightly called that "the fourth scandal."

Two plausible explanations have been suggested for this curious scandal.

1. The Ambassador, who had a record of working closely with the terrorists during Obama’s war against Kaddafi, had agreed to be “kidnapped,” so Obama could arrange a trade for him and the Blind Sheikh, thus pleasing his Muslim allies while having a great October surprise in the run-up to the election.

2. The Ambassador was in the area to pass weapons along to the terrorists for use in Syria and elsewhere, under the pretence of trying to STOP the flow of weapons into terrorist hands.

It seems perfectly plausible that BOTH of these explanations could be true. First Obama tried to keep all the defenders away so the ambassador could be quietly kidnapped. But that plan was disappointed. The terrorists assumed that they had been ambushed and betrayed, so they raped and murdered the ambassador.

Subsequently, after the violence had broken out, Obama decided to continue refusing any help, in order to let the ambassador be killed and prevent anyone from getting too near the site until any possible evidence of what happened had been destroyed.

I like this one.

When the highly paid liberal talking heads begin to get their tax bills the tide may start to turn.

Possibly the worst thing that could possibly happen for Obama and his rotten dictatorship is to get his way and put Rice in the SOS spot. Not one foreign leader worthy of authority is gonna give her the time of day for anything. She's a proven liar. The dictator is a proven habitual liar. They don't care what Americans believe or want, but sooner or later, it's going to hurt them a lot that nobody outside our borders gives a rat's behind what he thinks or wants done. Expect many world leaders to find new and creative ways to publicly diss Obama and his gang of liars.

This should surprise no one. And I think the White House's lack of concern about the dishonesty of public officials is, in a way, transparent.

“But, he has better become concerned when the “cover up” is exposed beyond a shadow of a doubt, and the public learns and understands what this election is all about.”

Don’t even hold your breath on this one.

“Who knows how far he will take the country by 2016 and who will be allowed to report it.”

The movie “2016, obama’s America” makes it quite clear.

As Dennis Prager says, being a liberal means “never having to say you’re sorry.”

we are screwed with the Kenyan in the White House but this election has shown that Americans like him and will vote for this lying POS.
Just saying but Obama is a reflection of the degeneracy of the American public
