Benghazi-gate…What Did They Know & When Did They Know It?

So Petraeus testified behind closed doors and lo and behold:

Former CIA Director David Petraeus testified in a closed-door hearing Friday morning that his agency determined immediately after the Sept. 11 Libya attack that “Al-Qaeda involvement” was suspected — but the line was taken out in the final version circulated to administration officials, according to a top lawmaker who was briefed.

Who took it out?

Who then decided to send Rice out with that misinformation?

Now if we had a Republican in the White House during this whole affair you know the media and the left would be howling for blood. It would be front page news for months on end.

But now? Not so much.

Funny how that happens.

It gets better:

Petraeus’ testimony both challenges the Obama administration’s repeated claims that the attack was a “spontaneous” protest over an anti-Islam video, and according to King conflicts with his own briefing to lawmakers on Sept. 14. Sources have said Petraeus, in that briefing, also described the attack as a protest that spun out of control.

“His testimony today was that from the start, he had told us that this was a terrorist attack,” King said, adding that he told Petraeus he had a “different recollection.”

Petraeus hides an affair, now he hides the truth it seems as well.

Is there a Bernstein and Woodward amongst our MSM ready to break this story wide open?

Seeing as how our colleges are now leftist indoctrination centers I kinda doubt it.

Benghazi-gate…What Did They Know & When Did They Know It?

Don't get sidetracked on what excuse the 0bama regime spouted - angry mob or pre-planned attack. Everything out of their mouths are lies, so can't believe anything.

The REAL QUESTION IS:

Why did they just watch our people die and not lift a finger, and WHO denied them aid?

Former CIA Director David Petraeus testified in a closed-door hearing Friday and hid the fact that his original testimony was lies forced upon him with blackmail used by bama’s white house, by claiming that wasn’t what he originally said.....

While he clearly changed his testimony, he refused to tell of the white house blackmail that forced him to lie. By “coming clean” about the affair he could go tell the truth to the committee, with the exception of the black mail portion that would have thrown bama under the bus.

Listened to the FOX interview with Rep. King, Petraeus didn't tell them crap, to put it bluntly.
Those who thought Petraeus would *man up* got it wrong, the White House (Obama) is still getting away with it.

Seems like I remember something about getting real answers to something about “Fast and Furious”. How is that working out? Wasn’t some court somewhere supposed to make some kind of decision some time in some future? I am amazed at how many HERE think something will actually happen. Obama could hold a press conference tonight and announce HE refused to send help cause he HATES America. Candy would say he didn’t really say that. The rest of the press would agree and say we didn’t really hear and see him say that. And then we could hold supper secret inquiries about if it was a mistake on his telepromptors, etc. etc.

I have finally realized WE are the stupid ones. And how stupid must we be to lose to brain dead zombies???

The Question I want answered is whos idea was it to have Our Ambassador act as a CIA agent and be in Charge of Recruiting Alqueda Jihadists and supply them with weapons to overthow Assad in Syria. Answer that and all the Questions about why we did not help our people will be answered
