I was waiting to read what the WP and NYT would put out today because I knew it would be word for word pablum of what they were fed yesterday at the super secret press briefing.

This is the newest meme: It was a turf war between the CIA and State. The CIA report was accurate, but State couldn’t reveal the information about al Queda involvement because it would imperil the investigation.

So, you see it wasn’t political at all. State was doing its darndest to make sure the bad guys didn’t know we were on to them. Some hard hitting investigation it’s been, since 8 months later we just got ultra grainy photos of men seen at the attack who “might” have been involved.

Okay, say we buy that this was a turf war. If that’s all it was, they could have gotten away with releasing very minimal information-more info would be released as the investigation continues.

Then why the video story? No mention in the WP article of the video. If accuracy was of utmost importance early on in the investigation, why create a scenario so totally divorced from reality?

Why the overkill with the video?

— Then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, Jan. 23, 2013:

“I wasn’t involved in the talking points process.... As I understand it, as I’ve been told, it was a typical interagency process where staff, including from the State Department, all participated, to try to come up with whatever was going to be made publicly available, and it was an intelligence product.”

“With all due respect,the fact is we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided to go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make?”—Hillary Clinton

Because the terrorists were supposed to kidnap Ambassador Stevens for a swap for the blind Sheik. Instead they killed Ambassador Stevens. That is what they are trying to cover up. It will not work. The truth will come out. The sooner the better.

Still waiting for the gun-running reports to surface.

Maybe there will be gun-running reports and maybe there won't.

However there are plenty of reports NOW, that we don't have to wait for, that show other treasonous activity.

Hey, JH2, long time no hug! Thanks for the Mother’s Day wishes and the ping. (I won’t be spending my Mother’s Day with my only son, as he is working in Angola at the moment, but he makes me feel like it’s Mother’s Day all year ‘round, so it doesn’t matter.)

Hope all is well with you and yours. Love your Two Cents! As always, spot on. :-)

(((((((((((((JH2)))))))))))))

” Obama’s jilted lovers during his ‘Honey, It’s-not-what-you-think— I-can-explain!’ presser”

I love it! You sure do know how to turn a phrase. ;o)

I took the weekend off from politics/scandals, and just look at what I missed!

It’s always good to read your thoughts. They aren’t just cogent, but are funny and so entertaining. You make stuff fun!

Thank you so much for posting. I am reminded of your awesome postings during the Clinton years. Good times...well, good postings, at least. ;o)
