Seymour Hersh Alleges Obama Administration Lied on Syria Gas Attack

The Wire ^ | Dec. 8, 2012 | Adrian Lee

A former senior intelligence official told me that the Obama administration had altered the available information – in terms of its timing and sequence – to enable the president and his advisers to make intelligence retrieved days after the attack look as if it had been picked up and analysed in real time, as the attack was happening.

The only two things barry has never lied about are :

1) He would fundamentally transform the country.
2) Electricity prices would necessarily skyrocket.

Can't think of any other time he's been truthful.

[Baynative]

Who is this guy? ...someone who just got off the bus last night, maybe?

[God luvs America]

here’s the funny thing;

1) Hirsch will be accused by the left of being a lunatic because of this article...

2) late in 2008 as GWB’s second term was ending Hirsch wrote a long article for the NYer hagazine stating covert ops were well underway in Iran and Bush would bomb iran before he left office...the left jumped up and down and wanted Bush arrested..

Seymour Hersh has been ‘documenting’ scandals against every Republican President since Nixon. This is his first attack against a democrat.

[Salvey]

Isn’t Hersh a Hillary acolyte? If so, that might be why he is attacking things obama.

[Baynative]

Wow, all those years in the bubble and he’s just now figuring Obama out. ...not someone worth reading at all, I’d say.

[AU72]

That’s it, A Clinton rump-swab who couldn’t find anything to write about during the Clinton years. Look for the Clintons to put light-years of distance between them and Obama.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Every word that comes out of his mouth is a lie, including "and" and "the."

[2harddrive]

Of COURSE Barack Al-Obama LIED. Tell me sometheing NEW.

[longfellow]

Yeah when he mention his hometown in Kenya .

[Farnsworth]

No way! Obama would NEVER lie, must have been an accident. Bush’s fault.

[Telepathic Intruder]

He was looking for an excuse to do something, basically. In this case, to further arm and assist the Muslim Brotherhood-backed rebels who are killing Christians.

Hersh is a pulitzer prize winning journalist who writes about events that have tabloid-type conspiracy overtones

I first remember hearing his name during his investigative reporting on the downing of KAL007
