Susan Rice did not LIE, she made a diplomatic statement to the UN based on the info she knew and could publicly address on September 16th. Partisans pounced on the first sentence of her statement "what this began as..." and the political media frenzy CONVENIENTLY totally ignored the rest of what she said that day...Namely: "We certainly are aware that Libya is a place where there have been increasingly some violent incidents", "And then as that unfolded, it seems to have been hijacked, let us say, by some individual clusters of extremists who came with heavier weapons… And it then evolved from there", then she went on to acknowledge that the nature of the attack was NOT just having to do with some film and that security "obviously didn’t prove sufficient to the – the nature of the attack".
Susan Rice does not deserve to be railroaded because of dishonest rabid partisans who have been besmirching her character...it's a damn shame what they are doing to this woman!
No one is talking about a statement to the UN, we're talking about her appearences on 5 different Sunday shows 5 days after the attack.
Of course, it's very convenient for the scumbag media, political partisans, and brain-dead sheep, to only see and address the parts of what she said that they want, meanwhile conveniently ignoring the FACT that she had already acknowledged the nature of the attack was not just about some film and that the investigation was unfolding. In the following days, questions got posed concerning her statement to the UN and the oft repeated misinformation snowballed because there was an election at stake! The way our US Ambassador to the UN has been treated, makes me sick!
