Former CIA Director David Petraeus stoked the controversy over the Obama administration's handling of the Libya terror attack, testifying Friday that references to "Al Qaeda involvement" were stripped from his agency's original talking points -- while other intelligence officials were unable to say who changed the memo, according to a top lawmaker who was briefed.
Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., told Fox News that intelligence officials who testified in a closed-door hearing a day earlier, including Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and Acting CIA Director Mike Morell, said they did not know who changed the talking points. He said they went out to multiple departments, including the State Department, National Security Council, Justice Department and White House.
"To me the question right now is who changed those talking points and why. ... I'd say it was somebody in the administration had to have taken it out," King told Fox News. "That, to me, has to be pursued."

Shows how inept the Intel officers are: they are unable to even trace who changed the wording.
Four more years with no adults in charge.
Put the whole Chicago crowd on the lie detector and while your at it ask how many dogs, cats and little children they fornicating with.
The memo was carved on a watermelon and Gallagher got past the SS and smashed it.
Shouldn’t the question be who decided to abandon those 30 Americans at the consulate? Or who murdered those four Americans through neglect?
So when is “Hillary and Panetta’s Excellent Adventure” in Australia going to end so they can come home?
Marvelous. We have a government so inept, that it cannot even identify who changes its own talking points. And if they cannot even identify who changes the governments own talking points, how in the world can they ever guarantee that anything a government official ever states, is even accurate ?
Good grief. They’re all acting like little six year olds denying they ate the cookies despite the cookie bag is empty.
Well, the wording in the headline is "unable to say" not "nobody knows". That makes your conclusion all the more probable.
Where the hell are those people and what do they know. Isn't the so-called "media" just a tad incurious on this?
HILLARY!!!
I want to know what is going on behind closed doors- what deals are being made to keep this from exploding in a way that even the left cannot ignore.
There are a few reporters trying- but it seems they get to the very edge and can get no further.
kinda like when nobody could figure out who hired that fat RATSUCK in the Klinton regime...

Can they say who left our guys out to dry before, during and after the jihadist attack?
Barrack Hussein Obama Bin Laden is a Sunni like his cousins Saddam and Osama
Can there be anyone out there who really believes
that no one knows who changed these reports???
Give me a break, I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell.
So true about his being a Sunni, but his involvement with his friends in Pakistan whom are Shitite make for a confused individual - allegiance to both Sunni ((remember the bow to Saudi King_ and his willingness to work with Ahmenedijad (Iran) Shitite. Yet he claims he is a Christian under Reve Jeremiah Wright - convert to Islam but also a ordained minister with a Denomination that is so liberal it is sickening. The same Rev whom is into Black Liberation Theology (South /Central America name for Marxism). valerie Jarret is a shitite muslim. so do you now see the conflict Shitite and Sunni do not like one another Iraq is Shitite (majority poor) Sunni was the leadership (Minority rich and leadership) Iran Shitite, Saudi Arabia (sunni) north africa is a mix of sunni and shitite.
middle east is powder keg because the Odumbo Administration supplied the rebels in Syria and Lebanon ways to shot down Israeli planes and blow up tanks here is what is the cover up of Libya. Odumbo does not want the America People to known that tax dollars went from the US to Hamas, Syria and weapons transferred. The incident is a combination of Watergat Bay of Pigs and Iran Contra Scandal rolled up into Fast and Furious 2 and possibly WMDs moved from Iraq to Libya now in Syria and Lebanon. Why to pacify the Shitite Muslims to have their 12th Imam and the Sunnis to understand that the Shitite are equal to the Sunnis.
there are other minor sects of the Shitie and Sunnis Osama Bin Laden was part of a sect that waabi, which Obama’s father was part of before Kenya did not do want he wanted to have done for Kenya. Yet obama’s father was an apostate Sunni Muslim of the Waabi sect that died a drunk, but prior to his death he lost his legs - his father was an embarassment to mthe Waabis and the Sunnis
