“Reporter Question: The intelligence community initially called it a protest. The state department never did. And you never did.”
Excuse me, did she not say it was a protest over a video? She did and continued to say this.
What’s going on here? Sounds like the reporter was bought off with pre arranged questions.
She did say it. So did Obama. Yet for some reason the press has only pinned it on this Rice person. I don’t get it.
As for “the intelligence community,” I don’t know. Maybe they said it. But of course if we ask for proof it’ll be classified and a few years from now somebody’ll leak it and we’ll then know they said just the opposite.
By the way, how come what the intelligence community says didn’t matter when Bush was president but now is impenetrable armour for the white house?
