Of course. The logical conclusion to this mess is that the attack in Bengazi was BOTH spontaneous and planned !

I knew they’d be out on the Sunday shows talking up the latest backstepping intel source that asserts it was not “pre-planned”.

That’ll be Obama’s newest talking point tomorrow too.


So we have gone from spontaneous to pre-planned back to spontaneous again. Unreal. And the media will go “yup, that makes sense.”

Over on ABC’s This Week, host George Stephanopoulos ludicrously argued: “Hasn’t the White House been relatively transparent?”

"Relatively transparent" compared to Baghdad Bob? To Goebbels? I suppose you could argue that Obama eventually admitted he was at least a little wrong.

The article continues, He justified his contention, in the question he cued up guest panelist Van Jones: “We learned over the weekend that even the talking points that Ambassador Rice received on that Sunday morning from the CIA suggested there was no pre-planning.”

Maybe her notes suggested that, but Obama was selling the demonstration/video story with might and main.

......

I deleted This week from one of my DVRs but I may be able to recover it to see the context of it.

If he asked someone like Lins Graham-nesty that then I would see it as a softball for Lins to knock out of park. Graham-nesy was un-mercilessness in his criticism of O foreign policy yesterday. It was fun to watch. That would be good.

If he asked a Dem like Axelrod or a Dem MSMer that question then it was definitely a softball to him, purely to help O.

Yeah, and as a result, Obama will lose : )

We had people on the phone. We had drones flying overhead.

Your ambassador to a foreign nation is being attacked, and you don’t even care enough to get a briefing on what the phone conversation or drone intel revealed?

Ambassador Stevens and the three men who died with him, were brave people. They were doing our nation’s work. I respect them a great deal.

Van Jones is an insect.
