You never understand anything. The POS Bishop Willard was condemned for falsely claiming Obama apologized for America's values. The fact that you are rewriting history proves that in spite of anything you might say to the contrary you know that Bishop Willard was a despicable POS to try to politicize Libya before we even knew Stevens was dead.So let me see if I understand this. Romney was chastised for saying this was a terrorist attack.....
Bishop Willard was a despicable POS to try to politicize Libya before we even knew Stevens was dead.
Don't you ever get tired of the perpetual dumb act???Bishop Willard was a despicable POS to try to politicize Libya before we even knew Stevens was dead.
The coordinated terrorist attack on an unsecured diplomatic post and the murder of a US Ambassador and his staff is political.
The Romney campaign may have misfired with its suggestion that statements by President Obama and U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice about the Benghazi attack last month werent supported by intelligence, according to documents provided by a senior U.S. intelligence official.
Talking points prepared by the CIA on Sept. 15, the same day that Rice taped three television appearances, support her description of the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. Consulate as a reaction to Arab anger about an anti-Muslim video prepared in the United States. According to the CIA account, The currently available information suggests that the demonstrations in Benghazi were spontaneously inspired by the protests at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo and evolved into a direct assault against the U.S. Consulate and subsequently its annex. There are indications that extremists participated in the violent demonstrations.
The senior intelligence official said the analysts judgment was based in part on monitoring of some of the Benghazi attackers, which showed they had been watching the Cairo protests live on television and talking about them before they assaulted the consulate.
We believe the timing of the attack was influenced by events in Cairo, the senior official said, reaffirming the Cairo-Benghazi link. He said that judgment is repeated in a new report prepared this week for the House intelligence committee.

You are a lying sack of shit.
The Associated Press: GOP pounces after news of CIA cable on Libya raid
Ummm, your link kinda agrees with the point made by the OP.
This Wednesday, the chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., put the blame on the director of national intelligence, James Clapper.
"I think what happened was the director of intelligence, who is a very good individual, put out some speaking points on the initial intelligence assessment," Feinstein said in an interview with news channel CBS 5 in California. "I think that was possibly a mistake."
A U.S. intelligence official said that the talking points were written so senior officials could say something preliminary about the attacks but that it wasn't until days later that analysts reconciled contradictory information and decided there probably wasn't a protest around the time of the attack. The official spoke anonymously because the official was not allowed to speak publicly of the still-evolving investigation.
The official said "right now, there isn't any intelligence" that the attackers pre-planned their assault days or weeks in advance, but instead still points to an them launching the assault opportunistically after they learned about the violence at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo.

So let me see if I understand this. Romney was chastised for saying this was a terrorist attack.....wasn't it shoot first, aim later?? But Obama did call it a terror attack?? That's why he attacked Romney??
Obama is right. Some people are too stupid to want the truth, he's got you pegged. It's a good thing some of us still understand some people will do anything to save their butts, in this case to save his chance at re-election.
Did anyone else watch the congressional hearings?? If you did you'd see Obama has again sucked you in because he knows you will believe anything he says.

Shit, this gets better all the time. Last week Biden played the "we did not know" card. Now Obama is claiming he said it was a terror attack ( which he didn't) the next day.
Jesus Christ you lefties are morons.
I could 'splain the rediculousness of this garbage but I'd rather sit back, point and laugh, as this whole thing blows up in the faces of Obama and the DNC.
Carry on.
Here is what you CAN do...PROVE that the anti-Islamic film had nothing to do with the attack.
But here is your problem...you CAN'T.
Rice, the State Dept and the White House were going on the best available 'intel' at the time. And any logical and intelligent person would highly suspect that the protests they were seeing in Cairo OVER THE FILM, that preceded the Benghazi attacks and the protests OVER THE FILM that occurred in over 20 countries were related and fueled by the same cause.
BUT, right wing turds who HATE America because they democratically elected a Democratic President and want to destroy that same President with no regard for this country, it's people or the truth, would rather attack the President.

Did you even read this article. It is an opinion piece.
" A Senior official"....
First off the CIA does not take to the media. So whomever this senior official might be, he does not work for the CIA.
This is how this went..This writer places a phone call to some low level press liaison and says "I am going to write a piece on the US Consulate in Benghazi. Here is what I am going to write. ( fills in the blanks)..Do you have any comment?".
"I will put you in touch with a "senior official" who will give you some background that will make the intelligence community look good, But he or she will not comment if you intend on quoting him or her. That's the deal."
This is how the game is played. Reporters and columnists get access to the highest levels of the administration by reporting stuff that makes the people in those levels look good.
And you bought this shit as some kind of impartial opinion or even maybe a legitimate news item.
All because it makes Obama look good.
This is a massive cover-up so as not to allow Obaam to appear foolish. When Obama declared the war on terror over because bin Laden was dead and Alqaida was in disarray, it was supposed to be indisputable. The fact is Alqaida is not done and now they have executed a terrorist attack on a US Consulate and killed 4 Americans. Obama's people must have said something to effect, "Never mind the dead people, how the fuck did this happen and who the fuck do we blame. Because it cannot get out that this was the work of Alqaida."
Jesus Christ you lefties are morons.

Umm we do not prove negatives here. You've been told that numerous times.
Now, the administration has clearly indicated to their knowledge this was an organized terror attack that was well planned.
The fact that the finger pointing has run it's course is an indication that the Obama admin wants this to simply go away.
Newsflash, it isn't.
This was a fuck up at the highest levels of government.
Why the Obama admin did not simply admit an error and moved on is a mystery.
This would have been a non-issue. But Obama continued with the video clip line because he simply could not admit his claim that the war on terror and the conflict with Al Qaida was over.
The blaming was just circus like. First it was a video, Then when it became evident that it was a terror attack, the admin blamed the intel. Then when the intel was confirmed as a terror attack, the Sec'y of State fell on her sword. Then the President claimed it stopped with him...Then the Admin blamed the intelligence community.
Now the intel people are fighting back..
The whole thing is a giant cluster fuck.
At the end of the day, Obama is to blame for this. It's HIS watch.

No he wasn't. The CIA does not talk to the media about ongoing investigations. EVER.The Romney campaign may have misfired with its suggestion that statements by President Obama and U.N.

WOW, talk about fabricating a story. That is a not 'how this went'...
David Ignatius is reporting the pertinent contents of a CIA DOCUMENT prepared for the House intelligence committee. Go back and read it again. Notice these little thingies..."quotation marks"

More bullshit. I thought you read the article.
The Benghazi attack produced a swirl of intelligence reporting, some of it contradictory. The Associated Press reported Friday that within 24 hours of the assault, the CIA station chief in Libya cabled headquarters that out by militants. But the analysts evidently didnt feel that they had any single report eyewitnesses said the attack had been carried that allowed them to make a definitive determination about the nature of the attack.
A memo prepared by the National Counterterrorism Center on Sept. 14 illustrates the fragmentary nature of the evidence: As time progresses, we are learning more, but we still dont have a complete picture of what happened, noted the analysts. At this point, we are not aware of any actionable intelligence that this attack was planned or imminent. . . . We are very cautious about drawing any firm conclusions at this point with regard to identification and motivation of the attackers.
The analysts seem confident that al-Qaedas new leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, played no direct role in the Benghazi events, even though he called on Sept. 10 for revenge attacks against the United States. Hes not a manager, hes not a planner, hes not an operator. Hes a theologian, and that doesnt have much resonance now. Hes almost irrelevant, hes so concerned about his security, so hunkered down, said the senior official.
Ironically, the Sept. 15 talking points that were the basis for Rices televised comments were requested by the House intelligence committee. Ideally, the congressional oversight committees would provide bipartisan support for intelligence officials who are probing the attack. But in the heat of the final pre-election weeks, the murky details of what happened in Libya have instead become political assault weapons.
