Jake Tapper: Remember when Rand Paul asked Hillary about gun running in Libya?

Posted at 8:05 pm on August 1, 2013 by Twitchy Staff

Recall H Clinton answer when Sen Paul asked about gun-running: "you’ll have to direct that question to the agency that ran the annex."—
Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) August 01, 2013

Nearly a year out from the Sept. 11 terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four Americans, CNN’s Jake Tapper unveiled what looks like an enormous puzzle piece that’s been missing from the “phony scandal.” On today’s episode of “The Lead,” sources told CNN that dozens of people working for the CIA — the agency that ran the annex — were in Benghazi that night, and survivors are reportedly undergoing monthly polygraphs to ensure whatever they were doing there remains secret.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton might have trouble recalling things now and then, but Tapper remembers a question put to her by Sen. Rand Paul during the infamous “what difference does it make” hearing.

There’s little question there’s a massive, ongoing cover-up in progress: the question now is whether it’s motivated more by national security or by politics.......

Looks like Obama will be out attacking anything in sight.

Wow! Is Tapper now a “wacko bird”? This is pretty shocking.

The floggings and polygraph test will continue until morale improves!

Tapper is the closest thing to a real journalist in Washington. It will be interesting to see how much out on a limb he’ll go. I am intrigued that he’s talking about this.

I figured one of the reasons he got the cushy prime time spot on CNN was to get him out of the press corp where he might actually do the job of asking real questions of this administration.

He won’t throw PIAPS under the bus at this point. She has been selected by the Lear Jet globalists as their next puppet prez.

I appreciated Tapper in the WH briefings. I figured he had gone soft to leave and head up the Clinton News Network. Hopefully his conscience will compel him to bring out ALL the evidence and truth.

On a earlier string today I posted ...

Jake Tapper was ABC's top WH correspondent for several years. He, at least initially, was drinking the Obama cool aid all the WH correspondents were slurping up with great relish. However, I began to detect a note of cynicism creeping into Tapper's reporting as time went on ... especially towards the end just before he left ABC to join CNN. It would appear Jake Tapper isn't in the bag for O anymore ... he's becoming much more objective. This is good for those of us that want to get to the bottom of the 9'11/’12 Benghazi attack. Not good for Hildabeast & O.

It’s always motivated by politics but it’s become exponentially so with the infliction of the criminal Øbongo regime.

I wonder if they've decided to throw Obama under the bus now, to give it time for the stench to wear off of Hillary before 2016.

What about the meeting in Ben Ghazi with the Turkish Ambassador earlier that same day?
