WH: We Decline to Comment on When Obama Learned of E-Mails, Met With NSC on Benghazi By Fred Lucas October 24, 2012
(CNSNews.com) - The White House is declining to say when President Barack Obama first learned of three e-mails that the State Department sent to the White House on Sept. 11, 2012, directly notifying the Executive Office of the President that the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi was under attack, that U.S. Amb. Chris Stevens was at the Benghazi mission at the time of the attack, and that the group Ansar al-Sharia had taken credit for the attack.
The White House also declined to say when the president first met with the National Security Council after the Benghazi attack.
I have been asked by one of our spokespeople to relay that we decline to comment, said White House National Security Staff aide Debbie Bird in a written response to CNSNews.com.
CNSNews.com had asked Bird: 1) When did the President first meet with the National Security Council after the Benghazi attack on 9/11/12? 2) When did White House staff first discuss the substance of the e-mails that went to the White House with the President or with the National Security Advisor?
Carney also took a question about the e-mails today during a press gaggle held aboard Air Force One at 9:34 a.m. A reporter asked: Jay, there are some emails that have emerged, which suggest that the White House and other areas of the government were told within hours of the Benghazi attack that an extremist group had claimed responsibility. How is that compatible with the idea that it was a spontaneous attack?
Carney downplayed the significance of the State Department emails.

"The White House is declining to say when President Barack Obama first learned of three e-mails that the State Department sent to the White House on Sept. 11, 2012,...."
If Obama was clean on this, it would come out right away. No candidate can have this hanging over his head without some ramifications for "no comment".

The thing that will outrage voters the most is not the lying ab out the video. Voters expect politicians to lie. It is that they were alerted that a consulate was under attack at 4:05pm and did NOTHING to help them.

"ANYWAY - this Benghazi thing is not JUST the attack, but is what occurred BEFORE the attack, and the culture that Obama has created in Libya and elsewhere. (Arming Al-Queda, etc.)"
Well put.

Ridiculous. Unbelievable. Just imagine the 'media' if a George W. Bush administration had said things like this under a similar scenario.
These turds would have been apopletic! 24/7. Demanding answers and resignations. Their dear Leader gets a pass.

They watched the attack unfold live via Predator and with attack aircraft and special ops an hour away they did nothing, sentencing 4 Americans to their deaths.

I was going to say this seems very “Nixonian”, but then that would be a slight to Nixon.
Not only has Carter been let off the hook as the worst president ever, Nixon pales in comparison to this administration as well!
To: advertising guy
Sadly, that is entirely possible. I want to see someone go to prison over this.

Whistleblowers. No question about that. Someone is leaking for sure. What a nice day! Smoking gun!
Speaking of nice days, what about Donald Trump today? Trump obviously already knows the answer to the $5,000,000 question. He knows that there is a smoking gun there too!
I have been predicting for a long time that Obama will lose in a landslide and I am right.

According to White House spokeperson ‘ the only thing that constitute real evidence is a signed confession by the peritrators taken by non republicans.
It’s funny how all this stuff that is being shown as evidence actually isn’t but the video, with no evidence at all, somehow got to be the preferred explanation.
LIARS
