Former Obama Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has dropped what may be the biggest bombshell yet on his former boss. Panetta appeared on MSNBC today and explained that he knew, from the beginning, that the attack on the US facility in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012, was a terrorist attack. President Obama did not see it that way, and his actions that night remain a mystery. Host Andrea Mitchell asked Panetta, “You wrote in the book that you disagreed with David Petraeus and told the situation room he thought it was a spontaneous demonstration outside the consulate that night.

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
While I don’t doubt him, I can’t help but wonder what his angle is.
Agreed to late! This is all for Hillary. I am hoping somehow that Hillary and her supporters might end up offending Obama`s biggest supporters, the black community etc, and have a real dirty nomination process.
Come on Dems run against Hillary, make it messy
Go away, Leon, you're way past your use by date.
While I don’t doubt him, I can’t help but wonder what his angle is. ......................................... If he covers up Hillary’s blunder, you can figure what is angle is.
Hillary, isn’t it obvious?
Hey maybe he will run against Hillary?
clearing away the baggage to be hillary’s vp or secdef.
hes such a genius...immediately understanding a terrorist act for what it was...WOW
old leon was on duty the night those poor man fought to their deaths on the rooftops of benghazi.
What makes it worse is that before leon was any type of elected official she was an army intelligence officer.
furthermore his son is a navy intelligence officer.
Leon has his forelorn avuncular teddy bear schtick down pat.
Day late and a dollar short, Leon. You’re just trying to sell books now. No sale.
Kept it a secret ‘til now?
I agree...what the hell made him turn on his betters all of a sudden?
I am just waiting for someone to admit that Obama was too busy getting some Reggie Love to answer the phone.
Leon is now looking for the lifeboats!
Your boss wasn't wrong, or ill-informed, or confused, or mistaken... well, he probably was all of those things too, but what he mostly was was lying. Lying through his teeth. Lying to the families of the dead in front of their coffins. Sending out dozens of other people to lie. And they were all lying in an effort to affect a presidential election.
Such are the scumbags that are your former and likely future coworkers.
Hey, BTW, did anybody happen to hear Leon Panetta speaking the truth contemporaneously about these attacks? Anybody? Bueller?
No, Leon's on the team, trying to pretend he's not to sell books.
His angle?
He is offering just a little ‘red-meat’ to conservatives to fool them into buying his book.
No Deal.
Hmmm-He knew immediately but waited until NOW to say so?
