Today ABC News confirmed that State Department spokesman Victoria Nuland raised specific objections to an original CIA draft on the Benghazi massacre. Nuland pushed her superiors to completely delete numerous references of extremists linked to al-Qaida in Benghazi and eastern Libya. She also persuaded more senior officials to delete information on at least five other attacks against foreign interests in Benghazi by unidentified assailants prior to 9-11. After all, an election was coming up.
Obama officials agreed with Nuland and decided to lie to the American people and claim that the offensive YouTube video was the reason for the attack.
But during her press conference on September 17, 2012, Victoria Nuland told reporters that what Ambassador Risce said on the Sunday talk shows was very clear, very precise, about what our initial assessment of what happened.

Well knowing you could face jail or at a minimum lengthy legal issues certainly provides a large incentive to tell the truth. Especially if most of the truth is already known. A good lawyer would tear her apart under these circumstances if she lied.
Why does he take his BlackBerry with him on the course? Why is he messaging constantly between holes, and to whom? What does he do before 10:30am every day, and after 5pm? Who meets with him in the residence, how often, and why?
My own opinion is that he has two jobs. Others think he's lazy.
Who knows?
“Chief of Staff to Dep SecState Strobe Talbott.”
Went to school with that buttwart!
It's worth the chance to give their president a call and see if he'd like to take this Democrat couple of our hands!
That was the Clinton regime ~ this guy doesn’t like girls.
I believe that’s HRT, not HRC ~ for ‘her royal thighness’
Right. Everyone’s focusing on these talking points but the crime is here is not defending Americans under attack. At some point someone is going to have to explain why the orders were given to stand down and who gave them. That's when the SHTF.
As I see it, there are two things to come out. One is the attack itself was bad enough for the Obama admin, but he couldn't have a battle involving US personnel - that would look even worse. So he lets it play out.
The other issue which may still come to light is a gun-running operation through Libya to Syria, which he was also trying to cover up.
The press needs to sit up and pay attention - this is bigger than Watergate.
“but the crime is here is not defending Americans under attack”
That’s not a crime. That’s exercise of judgement.
If Obama’s poor judgement is all that’s being covered up, let’s not waste any more time on this.
(1) Nuland was ratted out by a subordinate
(2) Or, possibly Nuland was ratted out by a superior
(3) Or, hubby wants a really cheap divorce and getting this old bag sent to the slammer for several years would do that (Something that really can't be ruled out),
(4) Or, Petreaus ratted her out ~ circles he runs in certainly know who is who and who nibbles on what ears and all that stuff,
(5) Or, a Conservative who successfully infiltrated Brookings Institute ratted her out (in order to get her husband out of the way so he can infiltrate that place even deeper, faster,
(6) Or, Pinata traded her off to Issa for a lighter sentence,
(6) Or, Valerie Plame or Charlie Wilson inadvertently ratted her out like they ratted each other out ~ dropping names at a cocktail party or maybe just on the net chatting on a Russian or Ukrainian genealogical site.
(Folds hands together in lotus) All things are possible! (nodding slightly)
Did you miss the connection ~ her hubby is a guy at Brookings Institute ~ that’s the source of most of the Leftwingtard standbys for Democrat regimes. They call the shots. She makes sure they are obeyed. George Soros probably gets his orders from Brookings.
Issa’s committee already has all the authority needed to conduct a proper investigation ~ Gloria is right about that. Waiting until a special committee is formed will simply delay this forever.
Some of these guys can probably coverup the problem indefinitely with modern technology.
What difference does it make? It’s not as if anything will be done to her. If anything, she’ll get a taxpayer funded pay increase.
Nobody has brought this up since it happened. http://shoebat.com/2012/09/13/video-from-libya-dont-shoot-us-we-were-sent-by-mursi/
How did the video get noticed by anybody in the first place?
They found it very useful at just the right time for themselves. Coincidence? I've heard that there are no coincidences in politics.
And, the maker of the video picked up in the dead of night is still in jail - for a parole violation?
Who knew it was on YouTube - an amateurish obscure video?
Who knew it would be useful?
Was the film maker paid for making video for use in events like Benghazi? As long as he was in jail, and later, he would help the admin. with a little cash thrown his way.
Maybe he was on the inside?
And, yes, I am wearing my tinfoil beanie - just check out my tagline!
Yes.
Hillary's "what does it matter" speech is one example, I think.
Move on, because the cause needs to be protected and seen in the light of coming to pass. World wide Caliphate?
Generally, leftists will lie even if the truth is to their advantage. It is just the way they are wired.
Give Trey Gowdy two hours with her. Then we’ll see how steadfastly she remains standing.
