Former U.N. ambassador Susan Rice, who served as the Obama administrations mouthpiece after the Benghazi attacks in September 2012, suggested Wednesday that theres nothing left to learn about the White Houses response to the attacks telling a reporter dang if I know whether the Republican investigation will unearth more evidence of a coverup.
Rice, now the presidents national security advisor, appeared Wednesday morning at the Womens Foreign Policy Group in Washington, D.C. Rice had earlier made a joke alluding to the harm the Benghazi scandal caused to her career, prompting PBS journalist Judy Woodruff to ask about Republicans new allegations.
Youre too smart for that! Rice laughed. Come on!
But Woodruff pressed on, asking her what the American people can expect to be revealed as part of the House select committee on Benghazi. What more is there that the administration has done or said that were not aware of? she asked.
Dang if I know, Rice boldly declared.

There is a related story that Susan Rice used the NSA to spy on members of other United Nations delegations during her time as Ambassador. She is a viper.
The Benghazi Inquiry, and the Difference an Investigation Makes
Illinois Review ^ | May 14, 2014 A.D. | John F. Di Leo
The Administration disapproves of the House Select Committee, chaired by Congressman Trey Gowdy, chartered to investigate the events surrounding the September 11, 2012 attacks on the United States mission (essentially a branch office, a sub-embassy) at Benghazi, Libya, in which the complex was attacked, robbed, and largely destroyed, and four US government employees were killed by Al Qaeda-connected militia.
Now, it is understandable that the Administration disapproves of such an investigation. They havent responded to the dozens of church bombings all over Africa in recent years they havent responded to the thousands of Christians killed in the ongoing islamofascist attacks from West Africa to Sudan they havent raised a murmur about the return of crucifixion as a Syrian terrorist technique. They dont mind a millions abortions a year in their own country; why should we expect them to be concerned about four deaths abroad? Perhaps our expectations of humanity from the current Administration really are too high.
But that doesnt mean that we should disregard the issue. If the Administration even the entire Democratic Party doesnt think the Benghazi attacks worth studying, perhaps we need to remind them what the events surrounding the attacks really were all about. Because, while those four lives were indeed important, and worthy of better treatment than this Administration gave them, under any measure, the fact is that Benghazi is also about many, many other things besides these four tragic deaths.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton asked, in answer to an early barrage of unanswered questions on the subject, What difference, at this point, does it make?
Well, we owe it to the American people, and to the employees of the United States federal government, to delve into these matters, and to explore, once and for all, just what difference it does indeed make.
Four Americans, Undefended
Contrary to the claims of the partisan Democrats, who fear any truth that might reflect poorly on their political party, the Benghazi inquiry doesnt lead up to the four victims of the 9-11-12 attacks; it only begins with them.
When the mission reported to Washington that they were under attack, a decision had to be made: what kind of support to give them? But that decision wasnt made at all. Instead, a decision was made to abandon them, to send no aid at all. In fact, American forces in the area who offered to help were specifically directed, multiple times, to stay put and render no assistance. Why?
With the obvious exception of military personnel in combat zones, American government employees normally have a right to assume that they are reasonably safe when on US government ground anywhere on earth, and that their government will protect them if attacked. This investigation is therefore not just about these four American government employees stationed abroad who died; its about all other American government employees, the tens of thousands of other embassy personnel, commercial and Customs service agents, and so many other federal employees who work overseas at any given moment.
What changed? Since when are our civil servants left on their own when in danger abroad on government business?
Distress Calls, Unanswered
The Administrations claim throughout has been that no help could have arrived in time. That was certainly possible.
We now know that the attacks went on for many hours, at least seven. In retrospect, we can look back and calculate flight times by helicopter, by plane, by humvee, and determine what we could or couldnt have done in that time frame.
But not then! At the time of the event, there was no way to know how long the attack would last, how long Ambassador Stevens and his staff could have held out in a safe area. It might have just been another hour; it might have been another day.
The rest of the scandal
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3156035/posts
We all know why Obama’s masters vetoed a rescue:
“Operation Eagle Claw (or Operation Evening Light or Operation Rice Bowl)[1] was an United States Armed Forces operation ordered by US President Jimmy Carter to attempt to end the Iran hostage crisis by rescuing 52 diplomats held captive at the embassy of the United States, Tehran on 24 April 1980.
Its failure, and the humiliating public debacle that ensued, damaged US prestige worldwide. Carter and many experts concluded that the failure to free the hostages
played a major role in Ronald Reagan’s victory in the 1980 US presidential election.[2]
The operation encountered many obstacles and was eventually aborted. Eight helicopters were sent to the first staging area, Desert One, but only five arrived in
operational condition...
As the U.S. force prepared to leave, one of the helicopters crashed into a transport aircraft which contained both servicemen and jet fuel.
The resulting fire destroyed both aircraft and killed eight servicemen.”
Better to let an ambassador die than risk the election.
Susan, You ignorant slut.
Also actors and crooks.
In the Obamanation Year of 2009, noted Democrat Intellectual, Ex-Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, (also an award-winning Co-Author of the now transparently failed Affordable [sic] Healthcare Tax Law), set the Pelosi Federal Standard of Excellence with this now famous quote:
We have to pass the Affordable [sic] Healthcare Bill to find out what is in it, - - - away from the fog of the controversy.
Now, in the Obamanation year of 2014, We, the People, are being accused by the same Noted Democrat Intellectual, Ex-Speaker Nancy Pelosi, of willingly approving funding of a Political Stunt [her words], formally known as The Benghazi Murders Select House Committee, as appointed by permissive, Doormat Republican House Speaker Boehner.
This is an obvious, transparent contradiction to the incisive legal logic that Pelosi used during her former Democrat zeal to ram through a single party mandatory tax on We, the People.
If We, the People, choose not to correct Ex-Speaker Pelosis latest accusatory, (and, as always undocumented), speech then few will remember what we here today have failed to do in this hour of peril in loyal Patriotic Opposition, (commonly called POd), to the evil, Oppressive, Marxist Regime of the now failed Community of Obamanation, moving forward.
When a noted Democrat Intellectual of the lofty stature of Democrat Ex-Speaker Nancy Pelosi, establishes such a high Standard of Federal Excellence, as brilliantly, and impeccably displayed in her above quote about the Affordable [sic] Healthcare Law, it becomes incumbent on We, the People, to fervently beseech our sorry Doormat Republicans to fairly apply that same Standard of Pelosi Federal Excellence to other matters of Federal involvement.
Besides, the Democrats own Fairness Doctrine requires that this be so as follows: - - - be very strictly framed in all PC speeches, (as per the dictates of Obama Mentor, published Communist Saul Alinsky), regardless of ethnicity, Country of birth, race, creed, non-Democrat Party affiliation, disgust with politics, low level of voter information, non-subscriber to the New York Times, non- viewer to MSNBC TV, religion, non-religion, gender, or gender of choice.
Then let us, the Oppressed We, the People, do hereby resolve, forthwith, to always enthusiastically be MOVING FORWARD with the Democrat Mandate of the Pelosi Federal Standard of Excellence because:
WE HAVE TO INVESTIGATE THE BENGHAZI MURDERS AND THE 20 MONTH LONG OBAMA-CLINTON-RICE-BOEHNER COVERUP OF SAID MURDERS TO FIND OUT WHAT IS IN IT, - - - AWAY FROM THE FOG OF THE PHONY VIDEO.
BTW, since B. Hussein Obama always dictates that he has ordered his crack AG Holder To get to the bottom of this, is that not just another Communist Saul Alinsky Method of deflecting any potentially punitive Investigation away from Where the Buck Stops?
If Obama is ever found to be the one where the buck actually stops, all he has to do is to promise that he, ALONE, will make sure that it never happens again.
FORWARD !
She sure has a pretty mouth...
Clueless - about what I thought.....
Here’s one thing that we can learn: what was *Stevens* specifically doing in Benghazi, 600+ miles away from his Embassy?
What was his physical role?
