Obama administration pressured Fox News to back off Benghazi reporting
americanthinker.com ^ | 9/7/2014 | Carol Brown

This past Friday, Greta Van Susteren reported on numerous ways the Obama administration has made it difficult for reporters to investigate Benghazi. Van Susteren said that it’s been “like pulling teeth” trying to get answers and that “the Obama administration’s behavior post-Benghazi has been weird; like they’re hiding something.”

She went on to say that as Fox News continued to investigate and press for answers, the administration’s behavior got “even weirder. She noted two major press conferences – one with the State Department and one with the CIA – when Fox News was not invited.

Thanks. Watched it last night and got PO’d all over again. Or, more correctly, re-elevated my PO level.

Greta gets today’s NSS (No Sh** Sherlock”) Award. She is apparently shocked by the obvious.

If the full truth ever comes out on this administration, impeachment will be the least of their worries.

No doubt in my mind this was a kidnap operation. It answers all the questions...

Fast n furious, IRS, this, Isis all clumsily run treasonous democrat operations.

Nuff said.

I tend to agree. If these three really gave the real name or strongly hinted to the White House their days of contract work with even Blackwater would be kaput.

He's not a coward, he's a TRAITOR!

In my book King Obama is a COMMUNISTS BLACK MUSLIM TRAITOR. Added traitor within the last few months. I will believe that he is a coward and so child like one must claim this adult is insane.

FOX has one hell of a backbone. They are NOT going to be shoved around by Obama or any of his thugs.

Some people say “we” should give the other majors a try. I did and, just my thoughts, I can’t stomach what I see as lies and misrepresentations. I really don’t watch Fox that much anymore either. Basically, it boils down to which wheelbarrow full of horse manure you are willing to buy into. The didots complain about Fox, but to me it seems like a single beacon in a sea of BS. And guess whose viewership is kicking the others combined. When I go to the doctors office and they have cnn on I just cringe and try to sit as far away from the tv as possible. Couldn’t they just put on CMT or something? :>}

I believe there were Democrat scandals worse than Watergate that were covered up. Before Nixon, and after.

Yeah, I guess the assassination of a sitting president and concocting a fairy tale to cover it up would be worse then Watergate.

“the Obama administration’s behavior post-Benghazi has been weird; like they’re hiding something.”

Benghazi-Gate is the most hot "secret" issue, not only here but also international. Much worse than Watergate, IRS, NSA, AP-snooping and more combined.

If this card of house falls, (hopefully,) it will send the DNC-asses' party into retirement. Therefore they are lying, distracting the American People, and they are guarding the TRUTH like guarding Fort Knox!!!

Who was Benghazi Bob? What was his mission? Who were the bosses between him and Obama?

“All Obama had to do was disappear for the night without granting explicit Cross-Border Authority. “

And get stoned.
