Excellent Societal observation!

Our sorry Society loves to avoid any discomfort, shame or punishment by making sure that any criminal behavior uncovered is then re-regulated, or actually re-legislated so that our sorry Society will forever be protected, since the new rules will guarantee that this punishable incident will go unpunished because it “ - - - will never happen again.”

The Societal Faith in the absolute power of the Federal Government to solve any problem by simply passing a Law or writing a new PC Regulation is unshakable!

It even trumps the US Constitution, every time!

Just think of it: No more Bank Robberies! Just pass a new Federal Law that decrees that “Bank Robberies WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN.”

Brilliant! Our money is now safe in a Bank’s Safe!

The list of what WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN is endless!

Well, on second thought, maybe not the one about Democrat politicians telling us that “If you like your Health Insurance Policy, you can keep it. Period.”

The guy who have them the report supposedly lied about actually having been there - he said in an earlier report to the FBI that he hadn’t been present.

There you have it. Obama's FBI says that the guy is lying.

Causes me to wonder whether CBS intentionally conducted the flawed interview then so they could disclaim it now.

I was thinking the same thing. It's what the Clintons do, and CBS has always been a friend of the Clintons.

“Nobody likes to admit that they made a mistake, but if you do, you have to stand up and take responsibility and you have to say you were wrong, and in this case we were wrong.”

Is that a hit at Obama? LOL

If what I’ve heard is correct, there is a LOT of dirt that everybody in the media and in Congress knows about Lara that could totally end her career.

The long and the short of it is that as long as Holder is AG, we can’t believe a dang word that ANYBODY within the government or media tells us. They fabricate “official records” as easily as they breathe, because they know that the threats to the media and to individual Congress members will allow them to “get away with it” - especially with Holder obstructing justice at every turn, as he was placed in office to do.

Either way, Obama has lied and people died because of it.

See tagline.

It would appear the guy making the allegations on CBS wrote to his employer...at the time of the incident...that he could not get to the compound during the attack. He also told the FBI..at that same time....he could not get to the compound during the attack.

This guy was trying (IMO) to capitalize on the deaths of these brave men by writing a book exploiting the situation and making himself out to be a hero.

IMO...the dude who made these false claims is a liar and I think the publishers of his so called experience should ask for any money back they may have paid him and to not go forward w/ this book. It’s beyond the pale to make money off the deaths at Benghazi thru lies.

Folks, if FBI asks you “Were you at Benghazi?’ of course you would lie.

Because you’re either #1 innocently there, or #2 guilty of helping the terrorist attack.

If #1, then you probably noticed the White House issuing stand down orders to ensure the US compound gets burned to the ground while survivors were abandoned to die. You also noticed any final survivors in the days afterward getting intimidated and threatened into silence. Could a survivor be killed a few weeks later if Obamatollah feels he might talk? Ask the 2 FBI guys who ‘Fell out of the helicopter’ after the Boston Marathon attack.

If #2 (you helped the terrorists attack Benghazi) then I think we can all agree you wouldn’t brag about that to the FBI.

So either way, of course people are lying to FBI. It’s a convenient way to stay alive.

Exactly. And it sounds like their whistleblower knows it full well. He has seen the machine from the inside and has no trust of it. Reminds me of the secret service guy who has said that the DC corruption is much, much worse than most people have ever imagined.

It would be good to compile a directory of whistleblowers and what they have said about the way this regime operates. The IG’s who were fired by the regime. The Chrysler owners who were directly threatened with IRS harassment. The Benghazi and Fast & Furious whistleblowers. The military leaders who were fired on trumped-up charges. Snowden. The IRS people. The memos saying that people could be prosecuted if they ddn’t report on their colleagues’ personal lives. The CIA people who took screencaps showing that the Boston marathon “Saudi person of interest” had the “known terrorist” classification changed and gave that evidence to Congress in spite of the threat of 20 years in prison for blowing the whistle, J Christian Adams being demoted because he objected to racist Holder policies... Etc.

Seems to me that they all agree on one thing: this regime does whatever it wants to do, with no regard for the law. They are lawless thugs. I think the public deserves to have this information compiled and reported. It gives a picture that corroborates the further identity of the wolf whose fangs are becoming more publicly visible with each new lawless act by this foreign enemy combatant in our Spite er, White House.

How did CNN scoop up Steven’s diary/journal the way they did?

Their mistake was, they did an entire report on Benghazi without ever mentioning the names of Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton.

It does not meet the smell test

I am very familiar with what happened, but thanks for the links.

My point is that she is still working for the same people that wanted to squelch the truth about her rape and attack after they happened. Because it wouldn’t help the Obamameister.

She did not fight her masters when she was brutalized by CBS.

Now, she becomes the fall guy for not telling the truth.

Battered wife syndrome, anyone? Stepford Wife?

Looks like a job is more important than hearing herself roar.

And the fembots did nothing to help her either.

Here’s the bottom line: To CBS, she was expendable. Just like the four who died on Sept. 11, 2012.

It is a shame she could not see that.
