White House Spokesman Throws State, CIA Under Bus (May 10, 2013)
The Weekly Standard ^ | 12:20 PM, May 10, 2013 | STEPHEN F. HAYES

Posted on 05/11/2013 8:38:29 AM PDT by Ernest_at_the_Beach

At a White House press briefing on May 1, Barack Obama spokesman Jay Carney attempted to frame new reporting on the Benghazi attacks as old news by noting that the attacks had taken place "a long time ago." 

Just ten days have passed since he uttered that infelicitous phrase. But it feels like a long time ago.

National Journal’s Ron Fournier takes a close look at the Obama administration’s unraveling spin in a piece today headlined: “Scrubbing the Truth from Benghazi.”

I don’t think the Hildabeast is going to go quietly.

He’ll have to murder her.

You read it here first.

— Then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, Jan. 23, 2013:

“I wasn’t involved in the talking points process.... As I understand it, as I’ve been told, it was a typical interagency process where staff, including from the State Department, all participated, to try to come up with whatever was going to be made publicly available, and it was an intelligence product.”

“With all due respect,the fact is we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided to go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make?”—Hillary Clinton

Benghazi Jay's ears can't believe the bs he is spreading at this outhouse press mugging conference.

"With new details emerging in the Benghazi-gate controversy, the White House held a background discussion with more than a dozen news organizations. Shown below is Herr Obozo pleading with his out house mediots to save his butt!"

The self righteous king hussein: “And what I have always tried to do is to make sure we just get all the facts, figure out what went wrong, and make sure it doesn’t happen again. And we’re still in that process now. But everything we get, every piece of information we get—as we got it—we laid it out for the American people.” Absolutely hilarious. Get all the facts first. SNL should be all over this. He would NEVER jump to conclusions before attaining all the facts. Right? Right? I, I, I. Me, Me, Me.

Keep in mind this is why they destroyed Petraeus’ career on a sex scandal immediately after the election.

I think that we need to say over and over again “From the get go, the president of Libya has been more honest about what happened at Benghazi than our president or our Sec of state”.

———He’ll have to murder her.———

Alternatively, Arkancide is still a possibility. Presidential Arkancide is not beyond the realm of possibility.

Think Ron Brown. Think Vince Foster.

“He’ll have to murder her.”

Maybe, but it is Hillary and Bill who have a history of suspicion when it comes to murder. Vince Foster and an Arkansas highway patrolman come to mind. Somewhere in my office I still have a copy of the Clinton Body Count. Victoria Nuland may find herself at Ft. Marcy Park if she is not careful. If I were her I would ask some conservative group to arrange for her protection. She knows a large piece of this puzzle and it needs to come out.

I agree, Hillary won’t take Hussein’s heat. Either she blames him for all of it, or she gets whacked.
How’s that for irony, hildeabaeast getting whacked to save someone else’s political future?

He made absolutely no sense. How those journalists could just sit there without someone yelling out “you lied” shows how fearful they are of losing their jobs.

I hear they still have a handy carpet at the W.H. for such emergencies as removing bodies.

I got a story, it ain’t got no moral
Let the bad guy win every once in a while

Will it go ‘round in circles?
Will it fly high like a bird up in the sky

I don't think even they know what the truth is anymore. obama does. But the rest, they have their own truths and I think they are so far gone they believe themselves.

Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.
