Before you get to indignant and dismissive about concerns voiced regarding potential lies from the administration I suggest you take a look at this breaking story...

In another discrepancy, Brennan said during his on-the-record briefing that bin Laden’s son Khalid was killed in the attack. However, the official White House transcript had the counterterrorism adviser saying it was another son, Hamza, who perished in the raid.

So they got the son wrong, they got the wife wrong, but we're to believe that they got the husband right?

Exactly. This administration is ridiculous. It was all on tape, right? How did they manage to screw up the story? How?

LIARS.

True.

(1) Don't give this administration the "benefit of any doubt" as to anything.

(2) Don't believe anything they say.

(3) In this case Don Runsfeld is accepting that Bin Laden was killed and buried at sea. Rumsfeld is trustworthy, and has good connections. I'll accept his acceptance, and that alone, in this matter.

(4) Why celebrate? Obama essentially was defanged at Tora Bora. After that he was wounded burden of a man to anyone harboring with him. The celebration was really in late 2001.

(5) Why celebrate? This event adds to the strength of America's second greatest enemy: the continuing evils of Obama and his corruptions. (The first enemy are cultural -- those who support the rampant cultural debasement of our times, viz the breakdown of marriage, the celebration of perversion.)

(6) FR has always had hot, awful, ugly contentious discussions on some issues. Yesterday on FR was not that different than FR in 1998 or 2003 or 2008.

Thing is, most immediate after-action reports are sketchy and incomplete, and oft times confusing.

For an operation of this nature, it will take days for the SEALS to put together a complete and accurate account of what happened.

This example is not an attempt to “lie,” as in deliberate misrepresentation of what is known to be true, this just proves that the media wants answers, now, and the spokesmen are pressed into giving what they think they know, now, and this feeds the frenzy.

If the officials held back for several days, to ensure they get the real flow of events and real facts, then there would be bleating from the media and others about “cover-up.”

Can't win.

How typical!

Obama goes about everything in a way that sows distrust and doubt. It isn't only his natural born citizenship. It is EVERYTHING he does.
