Newt Gingrich Bulldozes Democratic Libya Spin on CBS
News Busters ^ | October 12, 2012 | Matt Hadro

Posted on 10/12/2012 10:19:11 AM PDT by Snuph

Video at link... While CBS This Morning asked only one tough question on the Obama administration and Libya on Friday, guest Newt Gingrich came out swinging and dismantled Democratic guest Jennifer Granholm's defense of the administration. CBS has at times been friendly to the administration over the fiasco.

"I think with regard to the debate and the election, I don't think people are going to be voting on Benghazi. I think they are going to be voting on who do you trust," Granholm ridiculously argued. "You want to talk about trust? Having an American ambassador and three other Americans killed while the President lies to you is a pretty big question," Gingrich shot back. ...

"Biden on Benghazi was so wrong last night, it's going to haunt them from now until the next debate," Gingrich declared.

Newt has his faults, but the dims are unarmed when it comes to matching wits with him!

When Benghazi was mentioned, I wish Ryan had had pointed out that "0bama didn't care enough to even postpone his campaign fund raising"!

Haha. Gingrich is great. Both he and Herman Cain should run for something else now the primaries are over.

Intelligence failure?

Why is it that, I, simple me, knew the truth - weeks - before the President’s Office, the State Department, and the Pentagon?

There was certainly an intelligence failure you stupid talking head news Lady.

Now, we have 2 options:

1. They knew and lied.
2. They are weapon’s grade stupid.

Neither option allows for any “trust.” Neither option allows for someone that should be in office...

It is definitely a mess and I just heard Rush sum it up, “We deserve so much better.”

If they did not know they are incompetent.
If the did now they are liars.
So Obama / Biden which one is it or is it both?

What are Newt’s faults? A 30 sec spot with Nancy Pelosi and two failed marriages? Gingrich knows more about politics, conservatism, diplomacy and American history than anyone on the political scene at this time. You can put Romney, Ryan, Obama and Biden on the stage and Newt would win the debate, against all four. At a minimum, he should be Romneys press secretary, not appointing him would be like throwing away a national treasure.

Eric Nordstrom, when telling how he was REFUSED security there, actually said he felt like "the Taliban was in the building"!!

Did he mean the State Dept, Hillary and HUMA....the White House, Hussein Obama, the Pentagon....WHO DID HE MEAN!!

PLUS, they asked Charlene Lamb if she made that decision because of budget restraints and she said "NO"!!

HELLO REPORTERS!!!! She said NO.

The intelligence failure is the Administration thinking the American people are so stupid as to believe this was about a You Tube video!

The Administration put a drone over the site to watch the murders, but they didn’t put an F-16 over the site to prevent the murders.

Very good point.
Perhaps this is why we have only one choice in this election: Obamney -- Our hearts, as a nation, are evil and hardened that way.

Sorry, but Romney’s heart has changed. If you are a Christian, you must take him at his word.

WOW! I heard Lamb say she was watching the attack - LIVE - but I thought it was from on-site cameras at the consulate .. not a drone.

And if they had time to launch a drone .. what amount of advance knowledge did they have that the attack was going to take place ..???

And .. if they knew it was going to take place .. why would they just watch and not do anything to save our Ambassador and his staff member ..??? Plus the two Seals who tried to come to the rescue of the Ambassador - but were caught in the melee. To watch and do nothing was CRIMINAL.

For me .. I still can’t shake the idea that it was the Obama/Biden stooges who planned and executed the making of the “video”, with the objective of having a ready-made excuse for the terrorist attack the stooges already knew was coming. I’m even going to go so far as to say I believe it may have been a Jarrett/Axelrod operation .. in order to make Obama look unconnected with the attack .. unconnected to another “terrorist attack” upon America on a 9/11.

My premise is reached because immediately both Obama and Hillary made this statement, “...We had nothing to do with this video”. Hmmmmm ..?? Both of them said it continually, even spending $70,000 to produce a commercial to espouse the idea “we had nothing to do with the ‘video’”. Geeeee .. is somebody protesting too much ..??

Also, as soon as the “film maker” was arrested - I was even more convinced of the admin’s involvement .. because I questioned .. was this action a way to hide the guy from the media ..?? And/or, to keep the film maker from exposing the fact the “video” was a ruse from the get-go!!
