Judith Miller: Benghazi Probe a “Mess”
Newsmax ^ | Wednesday, 09 Jan 2013 04:42 PM | Jim Meyers and Kathleen Walter

Posted on 01/09/2013 4:44:50 PM PST by Olog-hai

Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Judith Miller tells Newsmax that the U.S. probe into the killing of American diplomatic personnel in Benghazi is a “mess.” …

Asked why there hasn’t been more progress in the case, Miller says: “I worry that a pre-9/11 mindset is slipping back into the consciousness of the American people and also the government that they have elected. Right now we have a situation in which you have a CIA nominee, John Brennan, who is known to be one of the officials who resists linking ‘Islamist’ and ‘terrorist’ in the same sentence. We have a president who bends over backwards to say that this is not terrorism in many instances, but violent extremist activity. We are slipping into a ‘let’s prosecute them after an event’ rather than ‘prevent the attack’ mentality.” …

Miller comments: “I hope we begin to have some of the questions about Benghazi answered that many journalists, or not enough journalists, have been asking about why four Americans died in Libya. This information should have been made available to the Congress long before now. It should have been made available to the American people before they voted in the election. It’s really kind of mind-boggling at a time when the administration is grappling with a lot of issues that require cooperation with the Congress. Why would [Obama] continue to stonewall them on the Benghazi investigation?”

Because he knows he is going to get away with it.

[Found before a crumbling statue of Tyrant-Emperor-by-Trick Obama
in a glass-filled radioactive desert,
now comprising what was once known as the ‘America’]


"We first heard of an undocumented man named Obama ,
Who denied all the confusion with a Kenyan and Osama.
But at every turn, he worked to have our country defeated,
With every enemy and disaster, he conspired to have us deleted,
Sneered he, 'Death panels are too slow, so we'll use MANPADS to kill ya'."

The Democrats would love for America to have a pre-9/11 mindset, it will make it easier for an attack, then, they can take away more of our rights and freedoms, allowing for them to complete the transformation of the US into a police state, thanks RINOs and the Bushes, you all helped the Dem fascists!

You know, reelecting Obama might have a silver lining.

If more information on Benghazi and other nefarious deeds this administration has committed comes out, Obama may just go down in popular history as the worst president ever. This would bode well for more patriotic Americans.

I know, they'll try their best to cover for him, but there's only so much lipstick you can put on a pig.

I'm wondering if the 37 survivors evacuated from the compound that no one seems able to interview were PRISONERS. Perhaps that's just another dirty little secret being hidden here.

Oh, and Pulitzer prize winning journalist, Judith Miller, WAKES UP, and says the facts about Benghazi should have come out before the election. Maybe they should just give all the FReepers who were concerned about Benghazi Pulitzers but I guess we're just too far ahead of the curve.

Of course, one should never underestimate the evil liberals can inflict on you for speaking the truth.

Because the crime of High Treason carries the Death Penalty?

Good question. Also, what about the autopsies of the dead. What about the flow of arms to al Qaeda in Syria.

Complicit congress, just like with the original war without Congressional approval.

Because elections have consequences, as do Partisan Media Shills.

Easy,The the Marxist in the White House does not want to admit His ambassador was a CIA agent running Guns to the Syrian Jihadist Rebels Through Turkey. Some of these Jihadists had been Fighting our troops in Iraq,Now we are arming them to Help Dump Assad,the same way we got rid Of MuBarack In Egypt and Kadafhi in Libya.
I want the Question asked what was Ambassador Stevens doing in Benghazi? You wont hear that question asked,this is all a Dog and Pony show. As soon as you hear someone refer to the House in the Residential Neighborhood where this attack took place as a mission or consulate,you know they are Lying,It was a CIA clandestine Operation in a Nondescript House,that was why there was no security,so as not to attract attention

Good question.
The election is over and the African communist Ubama has been re-elected.. So why continue the stonewalling now?

...Unless there's a cleanup ongoing for the benefit of the rats' presumptive '16 prez candidate.

Why wouldn't he?!

He knows the NYTimes and Newsweak and all the news networks are never ever ever going to demand answers, so why should he provide them?

The country really went down the shitter when the once-neutral media picked a side in the battle for our nation's soul. Late fifties or so, they began to stake their claim as tool of the leftist struggle. In the last couple of decades, they even dropped the pretense of hiding it.

FoxNews is paying a little attention to Benghazi, but really not much more than they are to Lindsey Lohan or those Kardashian chicks. And they're, allegedly, our conservative champions in the battle.

I hate to be one of those all is lost guys, but guys, all is lost.
