Ironic—the day he died, Ambassador Stevens (CIA) was meeting with a Turkish diplomat in Benghazi. The cover-up is really about Stevens’ gun-running of Libyan weapons through Turkey to the Syrian rebels.
I wonder if any in the Press will take this joint opportunity today to get to what the NY Times says is the “True Shame of Benghazi.”
I just heard Rand Paul on Geraldo’s radio show make reference to the fact that he questioned Hillary on the gun running to Syria by CIA and of course Hill went Sgt Schultz.
I’ll get slammed for even mentioning GR’s name, but, I believe he is the one who brought it up to Rand.
Not on the WH site either. Will he resign?
In reality, a government official can and should be impeached for something as common as falsifying an expense report! Anyone think you can't be impeached for gross incompetence? Of course you can.
Obama should have been impeached immediately for the BP shakedown years ago. Benghazi, IRS, AP - the reason congress' approval numbers are so low is because they havent fulfilled their oaths either - just like Obama, Holder, Big Sis, Clinton, on and on and on down the list.
The talking points were being created to send to Congressional committees with oversight.
The back-and-forth among the players on the talking point edits showed clearly that their audience was Congress. They were worried that Republicans in Congress would blame the State Dept. for not heeding CIA warnings about terrorist attacks in Benghazi, among other worries they had. So they scrubbed the talking points until they were meaningless drivel.
IOW, this was a report to Congressional oversight committees as to what went on in Benghazi. Not the details, but an overview.
There was a valid reason why these were created. So it would seem that their CONTENT or lack thereof should be analyzed, rather than the fact they existed at all.
if you see something..kindly ping me..
Carney might not be doing a presser today and the excuse could be that Obama is doing one with a visiting official.
Could be a cover reason for him not to do one.
Whether he resigns or not, who knows?
From what I see, somebody has told Obama - probably Valerie - to get out there and be the face of this stuff. But he has been carefully prepared to issue bromides and appear to be concerned, in charge, on the ball and trying to fix things. And to try to thread a needle on his Benghazi lies, and you can tell he is very practiced at attempting it, for the low information voter. He has already lost the informed voter.
Mendacity this open and broad is a function of pure arrogance. Once again the shredders will be running overnight in DC and the bureaucracies looking for how far down they can push the inevitable fall guy. These are our "leaders".
Obama misdirecting the American people —AGAIN. The release of e-mail is a ploy to draw off the attack. The real issues remain unanswered. The Mission in Libya.the Fast and furious on Steroids trafficking in weapons to Islamic terrorists linked to AlQaeda. The cover-up. The intimidation of whistle blowers.The dead men left behind by this President......
Her real family name is Nudelman.
That's gotta smart..
I don't get it. That makes no sense. Not in English, anyway.
So, the intel agencies do not actually feed the truth to the fedzilla, they feed what the fedzilla tells them to send to them in a final draft? Yeah, that agency should get billions more to spend on intel, which the rel rulers then sift through and pick waht they want the drones to sent to them in a final draft. Presto, the Chicago Way. And Petr ... and Betrayus fit right in with that fen. Now we see why honor is part of the imaginary ID for rank above a certain level. They have none and exhibit less.
Interesting discussion I’ve sparked.
I have a graduate studies professor who has a Ph.D. in linguistics with a focus on English syntax who disagrees with the three of you.
I personally don’t have a dog in the fight, but he brought up this exact quote today in a discussion post and corrected it, so I was just mimicking him. I’ve sent numerous links to him as a correction but have yet to hear back.
I’ll let you know what he says in response.
Okay, I stand corrected. He pointed out that I misunderstood his post, and I did.
Apologies.
That’s okay . . . I proofread all the time as part of my day job. :-)
He's wrong.
I corrected myself in a subsequent post.
