Another deflection and decoy by this inept, incompetent administration. Their lies have become so transparent that now they have to be in full damage control mode.

US planning to attack terror networks in Benghazi?
POSTED AT 9:21 AM ON OCTOBER 3, 2012 BY ED MORRISSEY
Now that the Obama administration has belatedly admitted that the sacking of our consulate in Benghazi was a terrorist attack and not, as they claimed for nearly two weeks, a particularly lively movie review now what? The New York Times reports this morning that the US has begun preparing for a military attack on the militants involved in the terrorist attack, but that may run into some complications:
The United States is laying the groundwork for operations to kill or capture militants implicated in the deadly attack on a diplomatic mission in Libya, senior military and counterterrorism officials said Tuesday, as the weak Libyan government appears unable to arrest or even question fighters involved in the assault.
The top-secret Joint Special Operations Command is compiling so-called target packages of detailed information about the suspects, the officials said. Working with the Pentagon and the C.I.A., the command is preparing the dossiers as the first step in anticipation of possible orders from President Obama to take action against those determined to have played a role in the attack on a diplomatic mission in the eastern city of Benghazi that killed Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three colleagues three weeks ago.
Lets pause for a moment here. If this is so top-secret, then how can the NYT be reporting on it? Simple: the administration is leaking this in the desperate attempt to look like theyre back on top of this situation. The Obama administration has discovered what happens when the White House lies, and lies badly, about terrorist attacks and their preparation for those attempts, and now they want to undo some of the damage by looking tough.
