“That’s a very serious offense that happened where Republicans on the Hill, we voluntarily provided these e-mails to, took one of them, doctored it and gave it to ABC News in an attempt to smear the president.”
— White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer, appearing on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” May 19, 2013
“I think one of the problems that there’s so much controversy here is because one of the e-mails was doctored by a Republican source and given to the media to falsely smear the president.”
— Pfeiffer, on Fox News Sunday, May 19
“They received these e-mails months ago, didn’t say a word about it, didn’t complain ... And then last week a Republican source provided to Jon Karl of ABC News a doctored version of a White House e-mail that started this entire fear. After 25,000 pieces of paper are provided to Congress they have to doctor e-mail to make political hay, you know they’re getting desperate here.”
— Pfeiffer, on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” May 19
When a White House aide uses the same word — “doctored” — on three television shows, you know it is a carefully crafted talking point. On top of that, he says that this was done to “smear the president.”
These are strong words concerning the 2012 attack in Benghazi, Libya, that resulted in the death of the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans. But is this a case of the White House communications chief taking liberties with the facts?

Is that like a doctored birth certificate or selective service form?
All they have to do is look at his ugly face to see he was already smeared.
The issues force themselves on the MSM. Have you seen anything like it before?
lol. Is there a form of life on the earth lower than this guy?
>> aide uses the same word — “doctored” — on three television shows
The Marxist/Nazi disinformation machine.
The White House said this? It sounds to me like somebody is hearing voices again. Buildings don’t talk.
Glenn must be sitting at a table by himself in the WaPo lunchroom these days.
He’s going to run out of Pinnochios before Memorial Day.
You heard it here first.
Thanks, I'll be here all week and don't forget to tip the waitress.
obamas Pied Pfeiffer. Go out and lie, and lie, and lie and we’ll see if it sticks.
Perhaps Messina.
He used this talking point, hoping it would become a scandal all on its own. He was desperate for the MSM to be outraged, and then it all turned out to be BS. Poo Pfeifer.
I want to know when the media vermin are going to make a big deal out of this treachery from this regime!
Little barry bastard boy's regime is treacherous toward the people through the use of the IRS and other agencies attacking those the regime considers the enemies of their (fascist) agenda. Wasn't Nixon about to be impeached and removed for the same acts of treachery? Hillary Clinton helped write the articles of impeachment claiming these were impeachable offenses against We The People.
The regime treacherously left more than thirty Americans in Benghazi to be killed, captured, raped, murdered by a wing of al qaeda, refusing to send ANY rescue attempt when a battle/assault was ongoing for more than six hours and they knew it from the outset of the attacks! Why isn't it treacherous to write off living warriors without even deigning to send a flyover?
The regime committed treachery toward Mexican citizens who have been murdered and maimed, sending weapons to drug cartels as a means to create the idea that all weapons need banning. Isn't sacrificing the citizens of another nation in order to achieve regime goals an act of treachery?
The regime commits treachery toward the media who do not sit down and shut up and feed only what the regime tells them to publish, thus the regime is attacking the very reason why We The People need a fourth estate to help with checks and balances. ... I mean, treachery is treason against the sovereigns of this Constitutional Republic!
So when is the fifth column enemy (media) going to hammer these treacherous bastards? I'm afraid the answer is they're not, because they serve the treasonous scum of the regime. And they are devising even more devious ways to commit that service, lending themselves to the treachery!
The broader and clearer issue is that the Left is pushing this country ever closer to civil war, with thier total disregard for the Constitution, the law, and the truth.
Obama and Carney keep forcing things to the point where only a brain addled three year-old would believe it and then force the media to make a choice.
Yes. I believe its name is Harry Reid.
They want us to kill the messenger...But we're smarter than that.
He’s leading the rats to the river...He’s just plain dumb.
Sounds to me like the scumbags from the Obama cult were trying to give their PR people of the media something to run with, and the plan didn’t work.
Pfeiffer Stretches the Truth on Benghazi E-mails
Very abbreviated:
This is wrong in four ways.
Point one: Republicans never “received” the e-mails........
Point two: Republicans raised strenuous objections based on the information they were given at that briefing. ......
Point three: Nothing was “doctored.” .......
Point four: The differences between the two versions of the e-mail have been overstated........
