This past Friday, Greta Van Susteren reported on numerous ways the Obama administration has made it difficult for reporters to investigate Benghazi. Van Susteren said that it’s been “like pulling teeth” trying to get answers and that “the Obama administration’s behavior post-Benghazi has been weird; like they’re hiding something.”
She went on to say that as Fox News continued to investigate and press for answers, the administration’s behavior got “even weirder. She noted two major press conferences – one with the State Department and one with the CIA – when Fox News was not invited.

Sometimes it looks like Greta isn’t quite as on board with going along with the powers that be.
I wonder if she’s not just trying to indirectly benefit the Hillster though
MUCH worse than his Marxism and hatred of white people, Obama is a *coward* with no honor whatsoever.
A man that is so cowardly he did not even have the guts to send others to risk their lives to save those he was responsible for.
He, and he alone, was responsible for the safety those in Benghazi. That’s what a commander does.
As a parent, who here believes he would take a bullet to protect his own child. I don’t. He would hide like the despicable coward that he is.
“... and that “the Obama administration’s behavior post-Benghazi has been weird; like they’re hiding something.”
I like Greta, but she can be incredibly naive.
Obama “hiding something “ is not weird, it’s their MO.
No "stand down order" was necessary to stop the in-progress rescue attempts gearing up in Europe. All Obama had to do was disappear for the night without granting explicit Cross-Border Authority. Without explicit CBA from the POTUS, no U.S. military forces could cross the Libyan border.
If Nixon was a Democrat, there never would have been a Watergate scandal. The MSM would have helped cover it up.
Benghazi was covered up by Obama because a terrorist attack two months before the 2012 election couldn’t be the narrative.
The Republicans have been making hay about it with a cast of people who have been hurt by those awful events of two years ago.
We are getting into the 2014 political season so we get this awful story paraded before us.
Democrat Wendy Davis in Texas talks about her abortions from the past to raise emotional hay for the sake of her campaign efforts.
Both parties (the Uniparty) in Washington keep moving us in the wrong direction. The current budget we operate under courtesy of Paul Ryan (R) and Patty Murray (D) continues to spend too much. It cut military pensions and created new taxes in the form of airline fees.
Earlier this year Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell voted to end debate so the national debt could be increased again.
I’m not going to be sucked into supporting the GOPe by the political propaganda that demonizes the other guys common in our political system.
THE ENDGAME HERE IS THAT THE REPUBLICANS WILL MAKE EMOTIONAL NOISE ABOUT BENGHAZI BUT DON’T INTEND TO PUNISH ANYONE CRIMINALLY (IF ITS POSSIBLE?) EVEN IF THEY HAVE POWER. ITS ALL EMOTIONAL POLITICAL NOISE TO GAIN SUPPORT FOR THE GOPe.
A better question is WHO is "Bob" ?
Rumors say "Bob" is a CIA person in an unnamed position. Baloney.
They are playing games with us folks. Have been for a while now.
Want to know who BOB is ?
Barack Obama.
Does anybody think for a moment that the media would not be covering Benghazi 24/7 had it happened during a Republican administration?
Further, does anyone think for a moment that the media wouldn’t be raising hell 24/7 if a Republican administration had pressured them to back-off a potentially damaging story?
I sure hope Trey Gowdy kicks some a$$ in his upcoming hearings on Benghazi.
Oooops, got my hearings mixed up. Wish Gowdy was doing it.
That is near the truth that I saw on the interview.
The warriors on the scene were told to wait and stand down. Apparently both phrases were used. There wa a half hour delay during which the compound was breached and set afire.
The forces outside of Libya were apparently never told to stand down and some preparations may have been made.
That is, there were two forces one at the scene and others elsewhere. The bloody handed Hillary can truthfully say there was no stand down out of the country.
This hearing will be a dog and pony show, nothing more. The die is cast: gop says there is something, dems say there is not. MSM reports in 10 second sound bites supporting administration....until the air is out of the baloon. Meanwhile, the three card monte approach continues: watch over there while I move the card over here.
Bkmrk.
I believe there were Democrat scandals worse than Watergate that were covered up. Before Nixon, and after.
I asked just last night on another thread how many times this regime has attacked Fox News and its individual reporters by name, and how many times they’ve been shut out of press conferences. I guess add two more to that number, whatever it is.
