Stockholm Syndrome?
Just pointing out the fallacies of the unsubstantiated attacks against the Obama Administration.

Then you should educate yourself on the facts of what occurred in Benghazi.

Two words that are radioactive to right wing propaganda mongers and the people that swear by them. The OP provided a link that any informed person would be embarrassed to cite. A propaganda rag that Goebbels would be proud to endorse and the poster refers to Hitler...oh, the irony.

I'm glad you did, because bluesjuke is pedaling false information. The narrative goes, they said one thing on day one and it ended up being false -- "they lied." As the military said, early reports from the field are usually wrong.

The plain thing is, for something to attain the level of "scandal" something has to be scandalous. Nobody is suggesting that laws were broken or anyone stole money. They best they got is that the Admin was wrong about certain facts. That's not a scandal.

NO!

Not on day one, for weeks they spread this fairytale and now you are lying for them.

A deep shame on you for something that I know you know better.

Now I only have to see it as the intentional, willful lie that it is.

Can't believe knowing better you even had the nerve to post this rubbish.

Everyone know it was not just "day one".
Wnet on as long as they could take it until they saw the futility in it.

I should go back and find the post where I said, "And when Obama beats Romney easily, people such as yourself will blame corruption or say it wasn't fair out of sour grapes."

I know it's there somewhere in my history.

From "day one?"

http://oversight.house.gov/wp-conten...rt-Final-1.pdf

From the linked report produced by the Republican leadership.

In the days following the attacks, White House and senior State Department officials altered accurate
talking points drafted by the Intelligence Community
in order to protect the State Department.


So the authors of the report accept that the Intelligence Community created accurate talking points.

Now, because the talking points have been released, we know what the Intelligence Community was telling the Obama Administration.

The initial talking points from the Intelligence Community characterized the attack in Benghazi as "spontaneously inspired by the protests at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo." The protests in Cairo were linked to the video. In fact, an early update to the talking points by the CIA added that the CIA had warned the embassy in Cairo that there would be demonstrations linked to the video. The initial talking points from the CIA also characterized the attackers/demonstrators as a mixed crowd, only part of whom were extremists linked to Al Qaeda.

So you can claim it was a fairy tale, but the fairy tale originated in the CIA, not the White House or from the Obama campaign.
