Oh, Brother! CBS News Prez: WH Saw Benghazi As Terror
Investor's Business Daily ^ | May 8, 2014 | IBD EDITORIALS

Scandal: On the day after Benghazi, the brother of the White House staffer who wrote the Susan Rice prep email said the government believed it was not just a mob reaction to a video. So who told him that?

When you're Ben Rhodes, an assistant to the president and deputy national security adviser for strategic communications, and you've been tasked to prep U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice on how to deflect blame from the Obama administration for the Benghazi massacre, it's good to have a brother who happens to run a TV network quite willing to push the White House spin.

David Rhodes was the boss of Sharyl Attkisson, the CBS reporter who left the network after it became well nigh impossible to continue the same dogged reporting on Benghazi as she had done on the Fast and Furious administration gun-running operation and get the truth beyond the CBS firewall.

On Monday's "Fox & Friends" program, Attkisson said she believes a concerted effort is under way to divert investigations into the deadly Benghazi attack, an effort that's being orchestrated by people close to the White House. Could she have meant Ben Rhodes and his CBS News president brother David?

Remember when the liberal heads exploded over W's lie about Pat Tillman’s death to the Tillman family? Where's that outrage, now?

It isn’t likely that the killers give back the victim but, it happened that night. And 30 plus State Dept. employees did drive to the airport and leave the country. How unusual!

What could have made those savages do that? It had to be a deal.....a deal of some kind, made by State, approved by Obama.

Surely, Gowdy will pursue facts like these that have been ignored. I am looking forward to when the Special Committee gets going.

The question nobody is asking is whether Ben Rhodes violated any top secret clearance when he told brother David what was going on?
