Hillary gets tossed under the bus to provide cover for Biden, White House
Michelle Malkin ^ | October 12, 2012 | Doug Powers

Posted on 10/13/2012 3:11:45 PM PDT by Upstate NY Guy

At last night’s debate, Joe Biden said “we weren’t told” that the Benghazi consulate had requested additional security in the days leading up to the attack on the 9/11 anniversary. Today the White House is making sure everybody realizes that by “we,” Biden was referring only to the White House and not the administration as a whole. The ball of blame has been overhead smashed back to Hillary Clinton’s side of the court.

“These kinds of issues are handled in the State Department by security officials,” White House spokesman Jay Carney said during Friday’s press briefing.

Security matters “are decided at the State Department,” he said…

And there goes Hillary under the bus. In other words, “the buck stops here with her.”

Well now, that depends on what barry has holding against the clintons, doesn’t it.

“You show them mine, I’ll show them yours”. Show down in progress.

Also....Who ordered THIS action?

Who ELSE could have directed Susan Rice to appear on 5-6 Sunday shows and have given her the talking points for her appearances? And this has been pointed out before by some commentators with experiential knowledge -— only the WH.

And that was AFTER the WH knew this was a premeditated, surgical strike -— no protest, no mob...an act of war.

"It wasn't even a 3:00 a.m. phone call. "

Then the One was out on the links - you know how he hates to be disturbed by minutia when he's golfing.

Totally worth the 1/2 hour...in case anyone missed it.

Isn’t the intelligence community headed up by Petraeus? Why won’t he step up and blow the lid on this cover up?

“The attack started about 9:40 p.m. Libyan time. That would have been the middle of the day in the US. It wasn’t even a 3:00 a.m. phone call.”

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2944272/posts

Libya is 6 hours ahead of EST. The attack began about 9:30 PM Libyan time which would have only been 3:30 PM EST. Obama would have been golfing about that time - not in bed.

post 26...Randita pointed out the same thing. I tried to draw attention to her post in post 63, same thread.

I haven’t confirmed the time, but this fact, if true, has gotten lost in the web of lies.

AND, it’s not a minor point because Obama should have been sitting in the situation room. If not, one of his surrogate’s was-—and the WH situation room, and other agencies, was obligated to give him frequent updates.

Hours before Obama would have gone to bed at 11pm.

As Eric Nordstrom told the House oversight committee this week, "the Taliban is inside the building."

Obama may be the front man for Jarrett, but he also might be the Chairman (aka Caliph) and Jarrett might be the Chief Operating Officer.

Either way, a statement that "the Taliban is inside the building" is a major disclosure.

No Petraeus is the DCIA, his is the CIA director only.
The head of the Intel Community is General Clapper, his title is DNI - Director of National Intelligence.

I’d love to see Tapper ask Carney for an hour by hour account of what BHO was doing from 330pm onwards that day.

Or Issa asking Carney under oath.

If Obama throws Hillary Clinton "under the bus," President Obama risks running afoul of the most powerful contingent of the Democratic Party, the New York City area group. The resulting infighting could be ugly, to say the least.

They are both traitors to this country.

They both knew exactly what was happening in real time.

They both allowed these murders to happen.

It is time for this bullshit to stop.

Who came up with the idea of blaming this on a video? That had to come from somewhere. Not obama, Not Clinton. That had to come from someone. That implausable notion was conjoured from somewhere else other than reality.

Regarding those Hearings: Do any of you feel that maybe, just maybe all of those folks who testified was/are anxious to start talking. All of them may be just sick and tired of the Obama Adminstrations and it's pack of liars.

Unless the right questions are asked they can't say anything. It's like they are waiting for that one questions. Especially Gen. Wood.

What did they used to say about Bill? Oh, I know... that he was some kind of Alpha Male. Well, we shall see about that. I don't imagine even the average self repecting omega male would allow his wife to be treated like that.

"My money is on the Clintons having the last laugh!"

I agree. Dumping this mess on Hillary is not a smart move by team Obumbler.

“Who came up with the idea of blaming this on a video? “

There are so many critical moving parts to this atrocity, but that is one of my priority questions also. I have not seen an answer or a timeline to that point, but I intend to do some research.

If I come up with anything, I will ping you.
