State Department: Stop asking us about the Benghazi attack (Coverup begins)
FP ^ | 09/14/2012 | Josh Rogin

The State Department told reporters Friday afternoon that it won't answer any more questions about the Sept. 11 attack on the consulate in Benghazi that killed four Americans until the investigation into the incident is complete

"I'm going to frustrate all of you, infinitely, by telling you that now that we have an open FBI investigation on the death of these four Americans, we are not going to be in a position to talk at all about what the U.S. government may or may not be learning about how any of this this happened -- not who they were, not how it happened, not what happened to Ambassador Stevens, not any of it -- until the Justice Department is ready to talk about the investigation that's its got," State Department spokeswoman Victorian Nuland told reporters late Friday afternoon.

"So I'm going to send to the FBI for those kinds of questions and they're probably not going to talk to you about it," she said.

All aspects of the attack, including what led up to it, its causes, the identity of the perpetrators, and the circumstances surrounding the death of Amb. Chris Stevens and the other three Americans,are off limits for reporters.

They know the facts are completely damning, so they will stonewall until after the election, at which time Hillary will retire from politics. Her career is over as a result of this either way, but Obama still has an election to win, so he puts Holder in charge of the coverup.

If our Congress does not launch immediate hearings, subpoena the State Dept officials, and expose the truth, they are just as complicit in this criminal conspiracy.

Excuse my ignorance, but isn't the FBI's investigative focus primarily domestic? Remind me again where the Libyan embassy is.

State Department: Stop asking us about the Benghazi attack (Coverup begins)

TRANSLATION: Stop asking us about our criminal negligence and total incompetence; it may hurt King Barry's and Madam Former Co-President Hidabeast's image as infallible!

TRY COVERING THIS UP YOU LOWLIFES! It's out there for all to see. They murdered this man, dragged him, stripped him from the waist down, lifted his body up, and sodomized him!! THIS IS OBAMAS fault and we all know it. God bless Ambassador Stevens. He was sacrificed for obamas ignorance.
