Liberal TV Host Explodes With Fury, Seemingly Admits There Was a Benghazi Cover-Up: ‘So What?!’

Bob Beckel, the liberal co-host of “The Five,” exploded with fury during a tense discussion about newly-released emails that reveal an apparent attempt by the White House to portray the 2012 Benghazi attacks as a protest gone awry to protect President Barack Obama’s political career.

(Fox News (Fox News Beckel admitted that “someone, somewhere” likely agreed that it would be in the best interests of the president politically to change the Benghazi talking points and control the narrative. However, the liberal host then went completely off-topic, bringing up reports of Nigerian girls being forced to marry Islamic extremists and instances of “friendly fire.”

When his fellow co-host, Eric Bolling, tried to get him back on topic, Beckel lost it.

“Let me finish!” Beckel said, pounding his fists on the table. “Let me finish by saying with what I think Hillary Clinton says — we know Islamic radicals killed these people, what difference does it make anymore?”

“Because they covered it up, Bob,” Bolling shot back.

“So what?!” Beckel screamed. “Every administration covers things up.”

Beckel also said “who cares” when asked if the Obama administration should be able to cover up Benghazi details just because it makes the president look bad. He also claimed that Americans are not still interested in finding out what happened in Benghazi.

Liberalism is a permanent state of arrested emotional development.

Does he get a paycheck besides Fox? Maybe a stipend from the DNC but I think he needs the Fox money and puts up with being the fool to get the cash.

Usually when Beckel blows his stack, the F words are not far behind. So, he’s really restraining himself here.

Well, and it’s not just a cover-up. The sat back and let the Ambassador and the guys who came to his defense be killed, and did nothing. They had hours to act, and did nothing.

The Ambassador was raped and murdered, and they sat back and ignored it all, lied about it, and still pretend that nothing happened.

Watergate was peanuts in comparison.

“WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?”

That is actually a question that now needs to be answered. Suggested answers: the continuation of the Obama administration; and the remaining moral underpinnings of the Democrat party.

Remember when Clinton marched his entire cabinet out on the lawn to swear on camera that the president wasn’t a liar?
Then shortly thereafter that dirty blue dress made its untimely appearance. So then we not only had a lying CICh but an entire West Wing of perjuring hacks.
Liberalism is a mental disease. Democrats are habitual liars. And this “transparent administration” is the worst to ever disgrace 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Strong words, sure, but wait’til all the e-mails are finally pried and leaked from these reprobates.

When I saw it, I told my wife Beckel is a metaphor for the entire democrat operation and the criminal enterprise masquerading as an administration.

They’re crapping in their bloomers.

All together now, Uno, dos, TREY (as in Gowdy)!

I was thinking he knew exactly what he was doing, because if he calmly said all administrations cover up, it wouldn’t have had the same impact.

One thing that could be quite frightening is if 0bama decides to “wag the dog” . . . my fear is that it won’t be an aspirin factory, but an American city.

Fatso is not even good at that. He, along with Juan the Moron is the reason that I pretty much gave up watching FOX News.
Anyway, nothing in the news today is worth watching. It is just one disgusting event after another.
God only knows where America will be by the time Obozo is finished trashing the White hut and the country.

Before, I didn’t think the Benghazi story could sink Obama and Hillary (and, by extensive, the Democrats in the senate,) but with the email, it appears to be the administration should seriously be imploding at this point. I expect the Republicans to retake the Senate and the White House.

HOWEVER, we have to make sure we don’t nominate Mittens or Jeb Bush. Ted Cruz is our man. Even if Mittens and Jeb win (how could they lose?), it be a loss for us as these men represent, as Nyquist puts it, only the “alternative left.” We need anti-communists and cold warriors now. And that man is Cruz.
