Thanks for posting! Saw this tonight. Noticed that Katherine gave Obama credit for being incompetent on this and didn’t appear to suggest sinister movtives to what happened in Bengahzi... instead mentioning the election.

I think more sinister issues will surface, particularly with regard to why what was going on there in the first place, including who was really behind the video... see a common element in the spin below?

1.
Hillary Clinton Speaking at a press conference from the State Department on September 13, 2012
“Let me state very clearly — and I hope it is obvious — that the United States Government had absolutely nothing to do with this video.”

White House spokesman Jay Carney held a press briefing September 14, 2012
“The reason why there’s unrest is because of the film. This is in response to the film… this is not a film that the United States government had anything to do with. We reject its message and its contents we find it both reprehensible.”

Did you find any place that anybody on God's green earth accused either Obama or Hillary of having anything to do with the video they promoted and advertised.

This need to state publicly over and over and over that neither Obama or Hillary or their government had absolutely nothing to do with this video, caught my attention early on.

Who were they talking to, the film maker?
