60 Minutes tonight on Benghazi. I don't know if it will be cBS but if anyone wants to watch I thought I'd post a reminder.

[Hoodat]

This should be interesting. I wonder how they will spin it so that it ends up being Bush’s fault.

[miserare]

Will not watch CBS under any circumstances.

Besides, the World Series is on tonight.

[erlayman]

Well. Greta has apparently looked over the transcript and issued a recommendation to watch or DVR so that is something. You can nitpik any spin to death but from the perspective of Joe Q. Public this will be the first a lot of people have heard of the story in a long while.

[rainee]

Wonder how hard hitting it will be considering the source.

[samadams2000]

Its beyond the statue of viewage for low information people.

[Rusty0604]

Probably depends on how hard the threats from the White House were.

[gaijin]

I’ll bet its the British PMC who’ll talk about all his muzzie trainees who split in one microsecond.

[sportutegrl]

Bill O’R was saying that CBS was doing a 60 minutes piece on Bengazi that would be explosive.

[KingLudd]

60 what?

[IMR 4350]

I wouldn’t trust the people at 60 minutes to hit the ground if I threw them off a building.

If previous democrat scandals are used as a standard, this so called hard hitting story is probably designed to be a second version.

Something people will accept because it does show some type of negligence on the part of Obama and Hillary, but it probably won’t be the truth.

[KLT]

Will be watching!

[SunkenCiv]

Thanks Rusty0604. SeeBS ping.

They will cover it so the hildabeast looks like the hero and obviously it is W’s fault. Since the hildabeast is already campaigning they are just greasing the skids for her.

Report: First Western eyewitness in Benghazi to go public gives account of attack, warning signs

Published October 27, 2013 --- FoxNews.com


The first Western eyewitness to the deadly Benghazi terror attacks has given an account of the seven-hour assault on the U.S. outpost in Libya and says Americans knew such an incident was inevitable.

The witness -- a former British soldier who for decades helped protect U.S. diplomats and military leaders -- told CBS’ “60 Minutes” that Al Qaeda forces first attacked the U.S. Special Mission Compound in which Ambassador Christopher Stevens was killed. Then they launched a second attack on a secret CIA annex about a mile across the city.

From Starnes (FOX) FB page:

I normally don’t recommend watching CBS - but tonight you need to watch 60 Minutes. They are going to have a powerful expose on what happened in Benghazi.

A security officer who was there and witnessed the attack speaks out.

I just finished reading an advanced script - and I’m simply outraged. President Obama’s Administration left Americans to die.

Watch 60 Minutes tonight and then call Congress and demand they take action.

[LRoggy]

If it is Sharyl Attkisson’s work it will be legit . . .

[hoosiermama]

Rusty. I think you have to make the request to the moderator to make this the live thread. It has already been linked from he other thread

[Rusty0604]

Thanks for posting. I know a lot of non conservatives watch 60 minutes and I’m curious what their reaction will be if in fact cBS does expose anything. Of course it is airing when sports events are also airing.
