NOTE: Full title of article is, "In rare public Q-and-A with reporters, Obama denies knowing Benghazi terror-attack survivors have been forbidden from talking to Congress"

----------------------------------------------------

President Barack Obama said during a rare public session answering reporters' questions that he was unaware of any efforts to prevent survivors of the 2012 Benghazi, Libya terror attack from testifying before Congress about what they experienced.

'I'm not familiar with this notion that anybody's been blocked from testifying,' the president said Tuesday in response to a question from Fox News Channel correspondent Ed Henry.

'They’ve hired an attorney,' Henry told Obama, 'because they're saying that they've been blocked from coming forward.'

'What I'll do,' the president offered, 'is I will find out what exactly you're referring to.'

No, they didn't "block" them.

What they did was threaten to take their jobs if they testified.

More Clintonian parsing.

I have never, ever listened to more than 10 seconds of this homo in a row. Going from the quotes:

‘I’m not familiar with this notion that anybody’s been blocked from testifying,’

This is far from a denial of anything.

‘What I’ll do,’ the president offered, ‘is I will find out what exactly you’re referring to.’

And what does this say? All it says to me, is he’s planning to further put the squeeze on them. The whistleblowers will need more than a lawyer at this rate, they will need many highly skilled bodyguards.

It’s amazing how rhe names barack obama and Nicolae Ceaucescu sound so much alike to my ears. Of course, I am deaf so maybe I’m missing something.

What’s one one more lie from a monarch to his serfs? This putz seems to think he can tell us anything and we will just swallow it, and if was not for all the liberal media also lying to Americans he would be impeached by now.

He sure doesn’t seem to know much. I wonder if he knows what Jason Collins looks like in the shower. :)

This is setting up the “new norm” for what used to be called journalism. The old networks that now work for the DNC won’t touch an issue that hurts their party so when Fox News and the GOP go after a cover-up they are treated as kooks, etc.

Of course during the Bush administration, the same so-called news organizations would let any nutjob ramble on about Valerie Plame, 9/11 being an “inside job”, etc.

The lines are drawn folks...it’s been 150 years since the Civil War. Could be time again.

Can you imagine Nixon trying to get away with that?

I don’t detest the left; I truly hate them with every fiber of my being.

I don’t even pretend to be polite to them any longer. If they start their left wing crap around me I go off and shame them in front of everyone. I even made one cry recently.

Boo Hoo Hoo! Drop dead a-holes.

So will their families.

He is such a liar!

Today he looked like he still had a hangover from the weekend parties.

What a poor excuse for a President!

Question to his excellency: So, you know nothing about threats made to whisleblowers regarding Benghazi but at the same time you are aware of some has been basketball player saying he was a homo sexual. Are you lying about Behghazi or admiting you only follow things like homosexuals in pro sports?

I have never seen a grown man not mind bugs crawling around on his face.

There is something dangerously wrong with 0bama. He is a danger to others. If he does not actually know this, being around him must be like befriending Ted Bundy.
