Obama Lied About Benghazi

[hawkwing]

Good point. Even though she is thoroughly dishonest, it is relatively easy to portray another thoroughly dishonest person with even more dishonesty.

It's highly possible she is dishonestly throwing this dishonesty onto the dishonesty of the presdient in an attempt - that hopefully will fail - to dishonestly portray herself as quite honest.

Honestly!

Exactly.

There is yet another possibility here that the Clintons are completely lying about this in order to cover her missteps and throw Obama under the bus. Obama is already wildly unpopular and she could use this to blame her own massive misunderstandings and failures (if that's what happened) on a direct order from Obama to lie.

I think there is a great deal of truth in your post Hawk.

My feelings:
1. Both Hillary and Barack knew the video story was a lie from the "git go."
2. It didn't matter. The deception only needed to last 60 days until the Nov. pres. election. Winning the re-election was was paramount. With luck, the American people would "buy it" and move on. Short political memories are wonderful.
3. The fact that both the Obama's and the Clintons are complicit in the formation and vigorous promotion of the Benghazi video lie, it speaks volumes about their character and their contempt for the American people. All that matters is gathering and maintaining power. Honor, integrity, character are all sacrificed for the ultimate goal - attaining and maintaining power.
3a. Remember, a key component of Obama's re-election was that he had "decimated" al-Qaeda under his leadership. The Benghazi slaughter exposed that lie. We now know that since 2010, terrorist groups and activity have increased 58% (Rand Corp). The exact opposite of what Obama and his re-election team were claiming about Terrorism in the world was happening. Terrorism was strengthening and expanding by leaps and bounds. The proof is occurring right now in the Middle East as Syria and Iraq are being dealt heavy blows - by those decimated terrorists.
4. Now that the pollsters show that the majority of the American people do not believe the Obama/Clinton Benghazi fabrication - it is critical for Hillary to distance herself from the White House lie.

Good luck to Hillary in that effort. I suspect that dog won't hunt.

Note: Terrorism increased 58% since 2010 according to Rand.

Exactly what I was thinking.

The casualty here is faith and trust in the U.S. Federal govt. A new Fox News poll reveals only 37% of Americans trust the Federal govt. after these scandals (Benghazi, IRS, NSA).

One other purpose of the video is/was to sow confusion. It has completely obfuscated the situation. It was designed to spead the "fog of war" as far and wide as possible so that when the truth became known, people and voters would be so confused that they wouldn't know what to think so they would just move on and ignore it because that's much easier to do than think about what happened, learn what the gov't did and think about the consequences.

[Ddawg]

Yeah - here's a sampling of those confused, idiot voters.

Former Secret Service Agent Dan Bongino Sears Big Gov’t To A Crisp In Scalding Hot Facebook Post
We are watching, in real time, the collapse of the big-government model on which the house of liberalism has been built. The only question remaining is, when will those on the far left accept the results, rather than the intentions of the big government model?

President Obama ran on the idea that a big government can solve big problems, yet this model has not only not solved any of our big problems, but it has created new ones, while aggravating old ones created by prior administrations.

Then he backed it up with some powerful evidence:

Think about where we find ourselves. We are in the midst of a border crisis on our southern border, a civil war in Iraq, an aggressive expansion of Russian territory, a historically unpopular healthcare initiative, record numbers of Americans both outside of our workforce and receiving disability payments from the government, a crisis where our own IRS admits to targeting Americans, then pleads the 5th, then “loses” only the emails of the suspects involved, destroys their hard-drives and tells us nothing is wrong.

And where is our President on these issues? He is issuing public statements on how he disagrees with the name of an NFL team.
