REPORT: 'PRESS SHOP' REMOVED AL-QAEDA FROM BENGHAZI TALKING POINTS
Breitbart ^ | 6 Mar 2013 | KERRY PICKET

Posted on 03/06/2013 7:29:28 AM PST by TexasCajun

Since CBS News learned that the Obama administration delivered Benghazi documents to the Senate Intelligence Committee last Thursday, a source who has viewed the documents is telling the network that someone “in a federal agency ‘press shop’ was involved in changing the talking points to remove al-Qaeda.”

In fact, CBS’s source says the docs say that there were warnings from Libya that were sent to Washington days before the deadly attack on the U.S. mission that killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens that specifically alerted the administration about an imminent attack on the U.S. consulate.

I'm not buying it -- unless that someone in the 'press shop' was specifically instructed by a higher-up to edit/remove the data. Otherwise, an 'underling' in such a position would doubtfully edit/remove data on his/her own.

This is about as ludicrous an excuse as HSD Sec Napolitano saying she had no knowedge of illegal immigrant detainees being released.

This whole administration seems to be filled with the Sgt. Schultz types -- 'I know nothing. I see nothing. I hear nothing.'

The biggest blessing from having learned to love to read is the enhancd imagination I seem to have when reading ANYthing.

I can picture an excited phone call or text message being dictated and sent by a nervous man experiencing an increased heart rate subliminally thinking, "They'll get us out of this, the military is only a couple of hours away ... "

And as the clock ticked away and what was usually responded to in a short time, was seemingly not received ... another dispatch sent, now in a state of fear and controlling the looming panic ... "Send help, riot and destruction immenent, lives in danger .. SOS ASAP !!"

Surely they'll rerspond NOW

The rest is history.

With the exception of 1 or 2 in our elected offices and none this administration, would I depend on them to cover my back.

Are they imprisoned in one of those NDDA/NDAA (sic?) camps?

Speculation:
What would have happened if any of the following were in the chain of command receiving the calls for help from Ambassador Stevens:
GS Patton, DW Eisenhower, W Churchill, T Roosevelt, HS Truman.
My bet is that they would have taken action before asking permission.

Horrifying.

What those people - God rest their souls - went though was pure hell.

The “I’m here to get my fair share” attitude has been bubbling up for a long time as the predominant mentality, and has finally become pervasive in our leadership. A perfect example is Moo-shell, who flies around on the taxpayer dime with no concern about expense or public perception.

I think 1 general - africacom; one admiral - in the med on a carrier; and general petraeus all lost their commands over Benghazi.
