Scarborough Interrupts Alex Wagner’s Benghazi Denial: ‘Don’t Insult Our Intelligence’
Daily Caller ^ | 5/8/14 | Brendan Bordelon

Posted on 05/08/2014 12:01:26 PM PDT by Nachum

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough interrupted Alex Wagner’s dismissal of the Obama administration’s secret Benghazi talking points on Thursday, telling her not to “insult our intelligence.”

Wagner appeared on “Morning Joe” to discuss the Benghazi scandal, which reached new heights last week after unreleased emails revealed White House attempts to insulate President Obama from criticism. The emails, which were revealed by a conservative group’s lawsuit, has prompted the formation of a House select committee to investigate Benghazi.

As she often does on her own MSNBC show, Wagner tried to wave off the controversy as much ado about nothing. “Everybody has focused on one of the four talking points,” she exclaimed. “The other three are totally benign and exactly what you would expect from the White House.”

“The fourth one, I think, is open to interpretation,” she continued, referencing White House orders to blame the attacks on a Youtube video, not a broader policy failure. “There’s a lot of litigation that will continue about that. But for this to launch a thousand ships –”

“Where’s the ambiguity?” Scarborough interrupted. “Well first of all, the launch a thousands ships — when you have something that goes to the heart of the matter that the White House holds back –”

You have to pay for the slavish butt kissing the Democrats get from the news media. They’re bought.

Just to give everyone a heads up to what most already know. Here is the Democrat's typical scandal progression:

1) It's nothing

2) It's not consequential (close to #1)

3) What difference does it make now?

4) Dude, that was X years ago. It's old news.

5) Everyone does it. Bush did...

And then the coup de grace

5) It's all partisan politics. Everything the Republicans do from here on out will be heavily painted as “election year politics.”

You see, when the Democrats get caught dead to right and they have nothing to fall back on, the corrupt MSM then paint the issue as mere “partisan bickering”, “election year maneuvering”. “Republicans seeking to gain an election year advantage have said that Benghazi...”

It's what Democrats and the corrupt MSM. When Republicans legitimately call out Democrats then the Democrats and their MSM cheerleaders work feverishly to deligitimize everything Republicans do and say on the issue as mere partisan bickering.

Won't be long how we will hear of more polls regarding the low esteem the people have of Congress and how people are suddenly tired of all the political bickering on Capitol Hill.

Watch. This is a well-worn strategy that has been played many times.

Yes. Why change something that has worked so well?

New Evidence Links U.S. Federal Government to FILMMAKER behind Benghazi Fiasco (Shocking)

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

Montagraph put up a new video on May 1st. It is basically a refresher of his original findings of the connection between Stanley Inc., a State Dept. subcontractor, to the Innocence of Muslims video. He also shows when and by whom the name was changed.

BUSTED Once And For All

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

Here is a video by another Vlogger who demonstrates how Montagraph traced Innocence of Muslims to Stanley Inc. through the meta-data.

The administration on Benghazi gate is reminiscent of Chappaquiddick on a global scale. Instead of Mary Jo Kopechne, they're our Ambassador and three heroic military people that are dead. And this administration as Kennedy before them was more concerned about its political career rather than saving the lives of the people under them.

Perhaps it was better for Kennedy's political career to let Mary Jo Kopechne suffocate in Kennedy's car. And perhaps it was better for Obama's political career to let those four people die than to save their lives; however, it is still absolutely evil behavior, regardless. Both parties -- Kennedy and Obama -- should have been more concerned with the lives of those under them rather than saving their political skins.

Obama's Benghazi is Kennedy's Chappaquiddick on a global scale!

Alex did not shrug or flinch
She stayed loyal to the Obamanation:
“ LIE, DENY AND REFUSE TO COMPLY.”

FYI:
Put the following on my Twitter feed-


Claim: Obama administration actually the creator of “Innocents of Muslims” video. Metadata points to “Stanley Inc”, defense subcontractors “

So far it has been ‘retweeted’ 4 times in 41 seconds...
