Kennedy has already perjured himself at least once when he claimed that when the statements were made after the attack, they didn’t know it was a terrorist attack.

POS Hack-Norton tries to infer that Romney was taking the side of the terrorists? Did I hear that correctly?

I jumped at the “disturbances” comment too! And what is with the giggle fit at the end of Norton's statements...was she laughing at the absurd connection she was attempting to make about Romney, so he could be dragged into the hearing?

Our gov’t makes me sick.

Yep..you heard correctly.

I smell desperation in the air...something is about to blow sky high. Norton is going for an outrageous sound bite to blunt the real news that is about to break.

Holmes-Norton, referring to the attacks and subsequent deaths as “disturbances”. Listen you ignorant slut, a disturbance is when the idiot in front of me at Starbucks blows his stack because they have run out of pumpkin spice lattes and causes a scene.

Liberalism has literally eaten her brain matter!!!!!

“Issa should remind everyone that the State Department excluded FOX NEWS from their conference.... therefore, he should ask what was spoken or released at the conference be released at the hearings.”

Absolutely! I posted elsewhere that it be demanded that entire press conference should be released on State.gov website -— unedited

Such BS about them not knowing the facts from anyone but the ‘intelligence’ community.........MY POST from Sept. 16 th after I heard Ambassador Rice’s BALDFACE LIES.........

On Sept 16, I proved conclusively there was no protest....THREE sources, two of them American, one of them from one of those killed.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2931897/posts

On the first lie, that the attack started as a protest, and that radical elements took advantage of the protest to launch an attack is TOTALLY false.

Sean Smith, was in the same building as the Ambassador when the attack started. He was online playing EVE and chatting with another game player. He never said anything about a protest outside the consulate. HERE ARE HIS WORDS FROM THAT NIGHT. “[vile_rat 9/11/12 12:54 PM]: assuming we don’t die tonight. We saw one of our ‘police’ that guard the compound taking pictures.” Smith was also known for his “interesting” and “morbid” sense of humor, something that is not unusual for those that have been deployed in war zones. No one knew at the time how prophetic his comment would be. Nearly two hours later, Smith typed: [vile_rat 9/11/12 2:40 PM]: F**K [vile_rat 9/11/12 2:40 PM]: gunfire He was disconnected from Jabber and never returned.

Read more: http://digitaljournal.com/article/332776#ixzz26duPX4MU Note he is worried about security two hours before the attack, but never mentions any protest, only gunfire.

Not only did Smith not mention a protest, but one of the ‘guards’ was interviewed in a hospital after the attack. Here is what he says about that night (note the hour of attack is off by one hour, I am not sure why, but could have to do with time stamp of Smith’s computer) The guard, interviewed Thursday in the hospital where he is being treated for five shrapnel wounds in one leg and two bullet wounds in the other, said that the consulate area was quiet – “there wasn’t a single ant outside,” he said – until about 9:35 p.m., when as many as 125 armed men descended on the compound from all directions.

The men lobbed grenades into the compound, wounding the guard and knocking him to the ground, then stormed through the facility’s main gate, shouting “God is great” and moving to one of the many villas that make up the consulate compound. He said there had been no warning that an attack was imminent.

“Wouldn’t you expect if there were protesters outside that the Americans would leave?” the guard said.

Read more here: http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2012/09/13/168415/no-protest-before-benghazi-attack.html#storylink=cpy

That is TWO sources who show there was never a protest besfor the attack, how about a third? It so happens a Doctor from Boston was in Benghazi and ON THE PHONE with the Ambassador’s attache when the attack began. Here is what he says about that night.

Just hours before Burke was scheduled to meet with John Christopher Stevens, the US ambassador to Libya, the US consulate was attacked. Stevens and three other Americans were killed, including Glen Doherty, a Winchester native and former Navy SEAL working for a private security company.

Burke’s colleagues had spoken with Stevens just 45 minutes before the attack, and Burke was on the phone with an embassy attaché when the shelling began.

“He yelled, ‘Oh my God, Oh [expletive],’ and then he hung up,” said Burke, who was in a hotel about a mile from the consulate when the attack began. “Then we heard these deep blasts. We didn’t know what was going on. Nobody knew if the whole city was being attacked.”

“Kennedy has already perjured himself at least once when he claimed that when the statements were made after the attack, they didn’t know it was a terrorist attack.”:

Goes back to think link maggief supplied & my reply:

“CNN timeline

http://www.cnn.com/2012/10/10/world/libya-attack-statements/index.html

What Obama administration has said about Libya attack”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

Thanks!!! for this link. Been waiting for one of these. This is a good start. We can add to those most early remarks/timeline. there were more, many more-—all designed to obfuscate.

Just as important to know who spun what, when, and why as to know what actually took place.

Wasn't that a conference call to selected journalists for background only and the State Dept briefer demanded anonymity?

Greta has a summary on her blog from notes that a reporter took and she said that she was promised a transcript.

Thanks. I saw your excellent post yesterday. I can see Norton’s notes in my minds eye....

‘in case of emergency...say that Romney sided with the terrorists so that the media will run that statement and not our lying testimony....lol’
