It is astonishing and terrifying that Clapper still works for the Federal Government in any capacity.

There are friends. We would not want to offend them in any way. There not terrorists. Americans are the ones to blame for suppressing them for so long. Signed SOCIALIST ANTI AMERICAN DEMOCRAT certified member of the HIDE THE DECLINE PARTY.

Clapper is the same moron who did not know that Muzzie terrorists had been arrested in the UK, and who also claims the Muslim Brotherhood is a “secular organization.”

Bathhouse Barry's Marxist regime is full of incompetent idiots — very dangerous for America and the world.

Clapper is the guy who said at a hearing thet the Muslim Brotherhood was “largely secular”.

He is a mole if there ever was one.

Oh, please. It was an Obama appointee - if Bush was in power, they wouldn’t say it was the DNI and not the Whitehouse, they would say it was done by the “administration”.

I don’t care if Bob the janitor came in and made the changes. Obama knew it was terrorists and he sent his UN Ambassador (surely an expert in these matters) out to lie for him. He’s just a dirty little money-grubbing Democrat grifter, and the sooner everyone wakes up to that fact, the fewer dead Arabs there’ll be and more money left in the public treasury.

Right - - but it still doesn’t explain WHO authorized the false meme that the terrorist attack was the result of the “video”... It would have been very simple & straightforward for the administration to simply state (for example) that “organized extremists” took down the diplomatic mission, and omit any reference to a “video” - - but they didn’t - - and there was a reason for this - - and a reason for repeating this lie over and over again for weeks...

Did David “The Axe” Axelrod or “Baghdad Bob” Gibbs weigh in on the issue of what talking points were to be used in the run up to the election, bolstering the “GM is alive, UBL is dead” montra?

“...links to al Qaeda were deemed too “tenuous” to make public, because there was not strong confidence in the person providing the intelligence...”

On the other hand, the “insulting video” story was based on rock solid evidence from operatives in the field...(/sarc off)

Ha! I knew it. I have been suggesting that it was James Clapper who concocted the “false narrative” regarding the video protest, as well as the idea to blame it on the CIA and Petraeus.

Clapper is Petraeus’ boss and is the man who demanded Petraeus’ resignation. There was an article linked by Drudge about how disliked Petraeus was in the Obama intelligence community, and about how they disliked working for him.

My guess is that Clapper was in the White House situation room on 9/11 with Panetta and the rest. When Panetta said that top generals and security people made the decision not to send help to Benghazi. I think that he meant after they had advised Obama to issue the stand down and go to bed.

If you listen to Obama’s statements, he always says top security officials issued the reports, he never said that the reports came from the CIA. He meant Clapper, who is over the CIA.
