President Obama Didn’t Know – Really? (Part II)


by Mark A. Cohen

Please ‘like’ From the Left to the Right’s Facebook Page.



I suggest some patterns I noticed of late, in this post, and in the previous post, Part I.




6. Gen. Petraeus scandal: President Obama implied to Chuck Todd (NBC News) of the David Petraeus / Paula Broadwell affair/scandal that his administration had “not been told,” coincidentally, until two days after the 2012 election! Who knew? Not the president.



I had no idea...
I had no idea...


7. Benghazi Scandal 1: Four Americans died in Benghazi, Libya, on Sept. 11, 2012 (the anniversary of 9/11), after Ambassador Stevens requested help from the U.S. The Obama Administration didn’t increase security for the diplomatic mission ahead of time, even though the Muslim Brotherhood was on the rise there. All the president’s men and women blamed the attack on an outrageous video. They apparently don’t know a terrorist attack when they see one – or did they cover it up? No one at the White House still appears eager to investigate. “What difference, at this point, does it make?” said his Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, when she testified before Congress. Hmmm.



Despite President Obama’s claim that he won’t rest until we find out what happened, his administration seemed to say, ’Who cares?’

8. Benghazi Scandal 2: President Obama campaigned on the slogans, “Bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive,” and “Al Qaeda is on the run.” So, the Obama Administration sent U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice on the Sunday TV news shows less than 2 weeks before the 2012 presidential election. One must question their motivation. Why did President Obama send Ms. Rice out there? After campaigning on “Mission Accomplished” for squelching Al Qaeda and terrorism, the administration had to sell the fact that the mission in Benghazi was attacked due to Libyan reaction to an offensive video. They needed to deny the terrorism. Later, the president said that Susan Rice had nothing to do with Benghazi. So, using my left-wing teaching to question everything and speak truth to power, I must then ask, “Why did President Obama put her out there in the first place?”



 Why did Susan Rice repeat the same, incorrect story on all 5 shows?
Why did Susan Rice repeat the same, incorrect story on all 5 shows?


With Secretary of State Hillary Clinton along side, the president said over a year ago, “make no mistake, we will work with the Libyan government to bring to justice the killers who attacked our people.” To date, no one has been prosecuted, arrested, or even accused. If you say that these things take time, then give President Bush the same courtesy, since those pesky WMD’s, hidden by Saddam Hussein, can still turn up. (These things, too, take time, right?) By the way, Susan Rice turned out to be wrong, but was rewarded by the president anyway, when he appointed her to National Security Advisor during his second term.



Yes, why?
Yes, why?


9. Obamacare failure 2: Millions of us already lost our doctors and our health care policies, even if we liked them. Costs are increasing for people in most states. Yet, President Obama claimed (many times, repeatedly), that his law will save the average family of four thousands of dollars. He said, “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. PERIOD.” And, “If you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan. PERIOD.” No disclaimer. …To be clear, when you say, “period,” you mean what you said is final, the truth, intractable. The president apparently didn’t know that people would be forced to give up their perfectly good and well-liked policies in favor of much more expensive ones. How did he not know? This is his signature law!



Even CNN knows.
Even CNN knows.


10. Surveillance: Showing anger over President Bush’s surveillance policies, Sen. Barack Obama sarcastically accused the former president of spying on American citizens. To the dismay of the left, the Obama Administration collects many more times the data than the Bush Administration, and is building a mammoth facility in Utah to store even more. Everything will be collected, except phone records, which were recently declared illegal by a judge. (I am not against collecting data, BTW, if it is not used in nefarious ways, but how we prevent it is debatable.) Does President Obama know anything about this? Well, if not, I’m sure he’ll find out about it one day while watching TV.



President Obama’s Utah Data Center - I’ll bet you could store some data there!
President Obama’s Utah Data Center - I’ll bet you could store some data there!


President Obama says he takes full responsibility for everything, and will get to the bottom of all the scandals, but he never does anything about them. No conclusion is ever reached, one ever gets fired, nobody is ever held accountable, and our president never seems to know much of what’s going on around him. He delegates most of the work, but, boy, as the left complained about President Bush, he sure plays a lot of golf!

President Obama Didn’t Know – Really? (Part I)


by Mark A. Cohen

Please ‘like’ From the Left to the Right’s Facebook Page

I give any president the privilege to perform diplomacy with foreign leaders (fib a little), and obfuscate (hide things in the name of national security), but President Obama appears to delegate - and then walks away, disengaged. Many of his supporters are angry that he has not done more. I maintain we’d be in a lot more trouble if he could manage effectively. He’s a great orator, yes. But like my father, who purposefully had no conservative friends, he doesn’t possess the skills to coerce, cajole, convince, or socialize with Republicans. President Obama stays in the dark, and it seems he likes it that way. During this administration, he (the most powerful man in the world) and his staff told us many times that he learns about current affairs not by being briefed by officials, but while watching TV. Even for the most ardent supporter, this must be hard to believe. (Even the Washingon Post is getting suspicious!) They have a set of photos outlining some of what he said he didn’t know.



 Hey, we won.
Hey, we won.


1. Obamacare failure 1: The president stood by the wayside from beginning to end while his signature Obamacare health-care law crashed and burned. Leaving it to Rep. Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Harry Reid to architect and twist arms for the “we won’t know what’s in it until we pass it” bill, he played golf, campaigned, and hob-knobbed with the rich and famous. No one informed President Obama of healthcare.gov’s problems until after its launch on Oct. 1, 2013, or so they claimed. He described the ease of use of healthcare.gov as being like buying “a plane ticket on Kayak,” or the “same way you shop for a TV on Amazon.” But the site crashed for weeks, instead. He appeared shocked that the government, for three years, had spent half a billion dollars on a website which didn’t work. I was surprised, too, but I am not in charge – he is.



Only 365,000 signed up so far, but how many have enrolled?  Fewer, obviously.

2. Spying on our friends: When Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany feigned outrage over the fact that the U.S. was spying on her by tapping her cell phone (for the previous five years), the White House said President Obama had no idea this was happening. I support this tactic, and it is a bi-partisan one, by the way. I fully expect our allies to spy on us and any current administration to do the same, but how did the president not know? He needed to perform a delicate tap dance on this, and he did, but it fits the pattern.



Your country spied on me.  No, I had no idea…
Your country spied on me. No, I had no idea…


3. IRS Scandal: The IRS spied on Tea Party group activities (‘spying’ isn’t right, but there’s nothing wrong with being aware of your opponents). They also discriminated against Tea Party groups by not allowing a majority of those to receive their applied-for 501c4’s (plenty wrong with that, in fact, that’s illegal). President Obama was either kept from this knowledge, or knew and denied it. He claimed that he first learned about this IRS tactic, “on Friday, when I was watching the news.” He then appeared outraged. “If in fact IRS personnel engaged in the kind of practices that have been reported on and were intentionally targeting conservative groups, then that’s outrageous. And there’s no place for it,” the president said. A year later he dismissed the IRS scandal as false outrage. Which is it?



 I did nothing wrong.  It was just a couple of rogue agents in Cincinnati…
I did nothing wrong. It was just a couple of rogue agents in Cincinnati…


4. Spying on the Media: The White House insisted it knew nothing of the fact that the Justice Department seized Associated Press reporters’ phone records, including those of James Rosen, of FOX News. Either the Obama administration has a private and consistent policy of meanness / underhandedness toward the opposition, or President Obama can’t control his own people. One of the two must be true, but which?



’A press that is free to investigate and criticize the government is absolutely essential in a nation that practices self-government…’ Thomas Jefferson.
’A press that is free to investigate and criticize the government is absolutely essential in a nation that practices self-government…’ Thomas Jefferson.


5. Fast and Furious: The Justice Department’s famous “Fast and Furious” scandal (Eric Holder’s people ran guns to Mexico and didn’t track them) was unknown to the Obama Administration. “…the president did not know about this tactic until he heard about it through the media,” his spokesman, Jay Carney said. Sure, Jay. Sure, Jay. I'm beginning to see a pattern...



 Many Hispanics and at least one American died, but President Obama and AG Eric Holder didn’t know this was their own policy.  Kind of hard to believe.

The Bloody Bitch Of Benghazi Crashes In The Polls


hillary clinton

When a person is able to stand by the casket of a grieving mother’s son, look that women in the eyes and then willfully lie, then that person is evil.

She refused repeated requests for security. She WOULD NOT send them help when they were under attack. She got our boys killed and then she lied to cover her butt.

It is a testament to the corruptness of the propaganda spewing communists in the state run media that this malignancy is polling higher than a bleeding hemorrhoid — 46% is an outrage.
(Politico) Hillary Clinton, in addition to President Barack Obama, is facing declining approval numbers, a poll shows.
Clinton has lost a majority of public approval dropping to 46 percent approval from 56 percent in April, according to the NBC News/Wall Street Journal survey released Wednesday. Thirty-three percent have a negative view of the former secretary of state.
The poll also highlights that Clinton is losing support among younger voters, independents and even within her own party.


BenGhazi Blood “I was told a few things and they were all lies,” Smith said. “Obama, and Hillary, and Panetta, and Susan [Rice] all came up to me at the casket ceremony — every one of them came up to me, gave me a big hug — and I asked them what happened.”

“And every one of them says, ‘it was the video,’ and we all know that it wasn’t the video,” she continued. “Even at that time, they knew it wasn’t the video.”

“So, they all lied to me,” Smith continued.

“I don’t count,” she added. “People of America don’t count. The only thing that counts is their own selves and their own jobs.”

Tilting At Windmills

Since last Saturday when The Insufferable Airhorn spoke in the Rose Garden about the “crisis” in Syria, we have seen the political role reversals of hawks and doves.

Bill Kristol, whom I abandoned some time ago, suggested in his op-ed at The Weekly Standard that “using this resolution to cast a vote of no confidence against Obama would empower those abroad making the case against placing confidence in the United States. That would be damaging. And in the real world, a vote against Obama will be seen as a vote for Bashar al-Assad, and for Vladimir Putin, and for the regime in Iran.”

Kristol insists “the right vote” by Republicans, a party that for at least two generations has held the banner of American leadership and strength, should not cast a vote that obviously risks a damaging erosion of this country’s stature and credibility abroad.”

Kristol continues, “A Yes vote is in fact the easy vote. It’s actually close to risk-free. After all, it’s President Obama who is seeking the authorization to use force and who will order and preside over the use of force. It’s fundamentally his policy. Lots of Democrats voted in 2002 to authorize the Iraq war. When that war ran into trouble, it was President Bush and Republicans who paid the price. If the Syria effort goes badly, the public will blame President Obama, who dithered for two years, and who seems inclined to a halfhearted execution of any military campaign. If it goes well, Republicans can take credit for pushing him to act decisively, and for casting a tough vote supporting him when he asked for authorization to act.”

Kristol, to my way of thinking, is correct on one point:  President Bush and the Republicans did pay the price when the Iraq war effort went badly and if Syria goes badly the current Oval Office occupant will be evisorated.  Kristol’s only concern is about Republican senators and congressmen re-establishing their “anti-Obama credentials.”  Good grief, man.  Sending our men and women to another pesthole is all kinds of wrong.

Caught between Iraq and a hard place are two of our betters—Hollywood actors Ed Asner and Mike Farrell.  In a stunning revelation about the silence of Tinseltown and their disappointment in their idol’s penchant for military action Farrell said, "I'm frankly deeply disappointed in the president's foreign policy, war-making, his reliance on military rather than diplomatic responses, his use of drones, continued allowance of the Guantanamo prison. He's a disappointment to me and other people I know."

"I voted for him, but I'm not proud. He hasn't thrown himself on the funeral pyre. I wanted him to sacrifice himself. Instead, he has proved himself to be a corporatist, and as long as he's a corporatist, he's not my president," Asner said. "A lot of people have lost hope—with the betrayals, the NSA spying…People aren't getting active because 'Who gives a shit?' is essentially the bottom line."

Another reason some Hollywood progressives have been reticent to speak out against war in Syria, according to Asner, is fear of being called racist.  "A lot of people don't want to feel anti-black by being opposed to Obama," he said.

What a magnificent example of cowardice.

Then there’s this.  District of Columbia delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton (D) who has been a member of Congress since January 1991 confessed recently that if President McBombypants actually gets the votes he needs for the resolution “it’ll be because of loyalty of Democrats. They just don’t want to see him shamed and humiliated on the national stage."

On Thursday, September 5th, Chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus issued what is, in effect, a gag order asking members to “limit public comment”.  The request was designed to quiet dissent while “shoring up support for President Obama’s Syria strategy.”

That “red line” The Insufferable Airhorn has now disowned has gotten all over him, Hollywood and progressive activists.  It’s one big clusterfuck..

It reminds me of Don Quixote de la Mancha.  Quixote, as we all remember from our high school or college lit classes, was a victim of his delusions.  In Miguel de Cervantes’ novel, knight-errant Quixote tilts at windmills that he imagines to be giants:
“Just then they came in sight of thirty or forty windmills that rise from that plain. And no sooner did Don Quixote see them that he said to his squire, ‘Fortune is guiding our affairs better than we ourselves could have wished. Do you see over yonder, friend Sancho, thirty or forty hulking giants? I intend to do battle with them and slay them. With their spoils we shall begin to be rich for this is a righteous war and the removal of so foul a brood from off the face of the earth is a service God will bless.’"  
"What giants?" asked Sancho Panza.  
"Those you see over there," replied his master, "with their long arms. Some of them have arms well nigh two leagues in length."  
"Take care, sir," cried Sancho. "Those over there are not giants but windmills. Those things that seem to be their arms are sails which, when they are whirled around by the wind, turn the millstone."
It is obvious to this observer that we have Don Quixote in the White House begging for lawmakers to unleash the dogs of war in a vicious snake pit of cannibalistic rebels and savage Islamic extremists.

I believe that America should stay out of Syria.  Let neighboring nations deal with the barbarians at their gate.  I am quite certain that Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has the spine of steel needed to protect his people.

"Once we take action, we should be prepared for what comes next," wrote General Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, only one month ago. "Deeper involvement is hard to avoid."

We have learned in this decade via the Iranian Green Revolution in 2009 that barbarian elements in social revolutions cannot be harnessed.  Neda Agha-Soltan died of a single gunshot wound to the chest. Her last moments—captured on a cell phone camera and shown around the world—catapulted her into the symbol of the postelection reform movement in Iran.

No one will say how many have died in Egypt’s coup against the Muslim Brotherhood.

Two years after the Arab Spring revolution that toppled longtime dictator Moammar Gaddafi, and one year after the assault on the U.S. compound in Benghazi that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others, Libya’s fragile government has little control over the nation’s security.

The whole of the Middle East is a powder keg and the blast wave that we invite by interfering in Syria may well involve America in a conflagration of tectonic proportions.

One final thought, the errand boy sent by grocery clerks is slated to speak to the nation this Tuesday on taking military action against Syria’s Bashar al-Assad.  For the whole of his second term, this president and his apparatchiks have deflected and distracted through sleight-of-hand and carefully coordinated propaganda, not the least of which has been on the issue of Benghazi.  The lies are damnable. 

I think it’s important to note that Obama will use the eve of 9/11 (the World Trade Center attack and the Benghazi murders) to create an imagery and recount emotions meant to sway Congress.

As he feigns outrage, his argument for intervention is weak and this nation does not need to be thrown into the crucible he created.

While battling for reelection in August of 2012, he drew a “red line”.  Saying now, “I didn’t set a red line. The world set a red line,” is his desperate attempt to rescue his personal credibility from his hubristic foolishness.

Benghazi Murders – the Obama Way

They are experts at covering up, hiding and withholding information.  It’s a way of life for the Obama Administration. Obama directs every scandal that comes our way from a distance – he is the director behind the director unscathed and free as a bird. 

His peons scramble to get the props in place before the sh--  hits the fan. Each one knows their part and sets the stage for his devious scandals. The Benghazi terrorist attack took four beautiful American Patriots from us and yet almost 11 months later, we’re just treading water playing the cat and mouse game just like we did with the Fast and Furious gunrunner project.

Panetta and Biden slinked away into the night hiding out in their assigned dog houses waiting, just waiting until the smoke clears.  Clinton scored a home run on the witness stand slipping, sliding and hitting one home run after the other. She knows the art of interrogation and pretty much shut her interrogators down as she finalized her testimony by thrashing about, raising her hand, grimacing and yelling, “What difference does it really make?”

Rice slipped thru the cracks for a while until Obama was ready to assign her a new position and her excuse for lying on National TV was this; she said she was just a patsy, I guess that’s a round about way of apologizing expressing that her lies on 5 National talk shows wasn’t her fault. Guess she’s not prepared to point her finger at anyone, but we all know someone in the White House wrote the script about video being responsible for the Benghazi massacre.  

Jay Carney came to the table doing his soft shoe dance pulling one rabbit after the other out of his hat for the news media spinning his falsehoods. Problem is Jay doesn’t have his hat anymore and has run out of rabbit food. The press is starting to prey on Jay and he’d best get his running shoes on, because the media no longer buys his lies.

And then there’s (Obama) - to hear him talk he no longer gets morning briefings and must depend on the news media to get him up to snuff. Obama will say, “I personally am not involved in these scandals, they are” – just who the heck is “They” Obama? 

The Benghazi murders remain a mystery, each player has lied and played the blame game.  There are many conspiracy theories about the Benghazi murders and so far the Obama Administration has managed to hide out above the law covering up their paper trail as they go... 

We do know starting in early 2012 Ambassador Stevens requested more protection and his requests were denied. We know Lamb watched the Benghazi terrorist attack on our Ambassador and other Americans in real time via the drones. We know that Obama, Hillary and Panetta were advised while still in the White House about the attack on our Consulate and Ambassador Stevens.  

We know that Obama split and ran that night to prepare for a political campaign in Las Vegas never to be heard from again.  Hillary did whatever Hillary does, maybe more wine tasting or possibly she flagged down a plane and went to her favorite Cuban bar (Cafe Havana) for a little bit of dancing and relaxation. Anyway out of sight, out of mind – Hillary wasn’t the least bit concerned about the Benghazi attack.

We know that our Military was given direct orders to step down leaving our Ambassador and three other American men at the mercy of the terrorists.

A quick snapshot of the Benghazi events seems self evident that the Benghazi scandal was pre-planned months before Sept 11, 2012. It’s doubtful that Obama, Hillary and Panetta wanted our Ambassador and three other Americans murdered by terrorists just before the Election.

The fact that Obama, Clinton and Panetta were apparently unconcerned, totally disengaged and uninterested when they were informed of the attack on our Consulate and Ambassador Stevens leads one to believe that the three didn’t think our Ambassador would be murdered. The orders to step down would suggest that they believed Chris Stevens would be kidnapped on the night of September 11, 2012, not murdered.

Their original Benghazi plan didn’t go off like clockwork; our four Americans were murdered by terrorists. Being between a rock and a hard place, Obama’s team realized that he would probably lose the Presidential Election if Americans caught wind of his negligence as Commander in Chief. 

So the Obama Administration switched gears blaming the YouTube video for the next 5 plus weeks. To solidify their scheme they had the creator of the video arrested in the middle of the night and placed behind bars. Obama and Hillary created a video for their Muslim friends apologizing for the video. 

Jay Carney, Susan Rice and the Liberal News Media were the appointed messengers to spread the word about the video.  Obama and Clinton followed suit putting on their sad faces, pretending outrage and beating the YouTube video to death, but it worked look who’s in the White House for a second term.

It Was Never About The Stained Blue Dress...

It was the lies and deceit that followed!

Bill certainly wasn’t the first President to get a little “sumthin-sumthin” on the side, and probably won’t be the last.

But, Bill had one thing going for him our current leader doesn’t. He could govern!

That and that alone kept him in office in the aftermath of the Monica Lewinski scandal.

His ability to govern, a fact even Republicans would concede, allowed him to maintain support of his party, among others.

Barack Obama, on the other hand, appears as if he doesn't want to govern. He wants to sit on the throne and let others do it for him:

Why Benghazi Matters – Four Americans Are Dead and Al Qaeda is Alive and Well

President Nixon said, “I am not a crook.” Well, maybe not, but whiz-kid reporters Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward, due to their relentless search for the truth, caused the president to ultimately resign. Their secret source, a person known only as “Deep Throat,” became legend. The media and the public fell in love with the reporters and their story, and Robert Redford made a movie about it called, All the Presidents Men. Everyone celebrated John Dean, Nixon’s presidential counsel, who became known as the prime whistleblower. The break-in of the Democratic Party headquarters was bad enough, but the ensuing stonewalling and cover-up (known as Watergate), proved the undoing of the Nixon Administration. Dozens of members served jail time (43 people in all). The president himself, had he not stepped down, likely would have been impeached, convicted, and removed from office by Congress. I don’t minimize the horrific depth to the lying and the mountain of evidence gathered. But, it’s also important to realize how the media never gave up on the story, and, although crimes were committed, no one died as a result. Isn’t it remarkable how some people will say and do anything in order to save their butts and hold onto power? We all cheer on the whistleblowers when it comes to taking down the powerful!



Did you believe that this signaled the end of terrorism?
Did you believe that this signaled the end of terrorism?

Let’s fast forward to the election of 2012. President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, in the late stages of the election, began using the slogan, “GM is alive, and Bin Laden is dead.” They also said, “Al Qaeda is on the run.” This implied that terrorism was dead, too. It reminded me of the fuss made over President Bush’s “Mission Accomplished” banner, but no one questioned this statement. No one made fun of President Obama, and most of us applauded the death of Bin Laden, although many believed that Al Qaeda wasn’t destroyed.



On September 11, 2012, just two months short of the presidential election, the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya was attacked. Four Americans died. Obviously a terrorist attack, the president appeared in the White House rose garden on Sep. 12, and condemned the action, calling it “shocking.” He vowed to bring to justice those who killed our people. It is now 9 months later, and no one is in custody. Why not?



Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appeared on Sep. 14, and apologized (to whom?) for “an awful Internet video,” which she said caused the attack. President Obama’s U.N. Ambassador, Susan Rice, appeared on five Sunday talk shows on Sep. 16, pushing the same, unlikely scenario that the Benghazi attack was a spontaneous demonstration, caused by a video. One must ask, “Who brings a rocket-propelled grenade launcher to a demonstration?” This began to smell like a coordinated cover-up to me.



Al Qaeda on the run?
Is Al Qaeda really on the run?

The mainstream media (MSM), didn’t cover Benghazi much before the election. They didn’t pay attention until Hillary Clinton finally testified on Jan. 23, 2013, and said, “Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night decided to go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make?” This stunned many, and it does matter. The president and Mrs. Clinton were not on top of developments as the attack ensued, and someone ordered our troops to stand-down instead of assisting Ambassador Chris Stevens that night. Who gave the order? As with Watergate, dare we ask, “Did this go as far as the president?” President Obama seemed indifferent to the fact that American diplomats were killed in their place of business, seemed to dismiss it, and campaigned on Sep. 12. What could have been done to prevent the success of the terrorist attack? Could the life of Sean Smith and the others have been saved? Why were steps not taken to protect our people? Who was in charge? We still don’t know the answers to these questions, but why not ask? They got to the bottom of it all in 1973, so why not now?



Greg Hicks, Diplomat.  Everyone loves a whistleblower, right?
Greg Hicks, Diplomat. Everyone loves a whistleblower, right?

Hearings on the Benghazi terrorist attack were held last week. Greg Hicks, the whistleblower, said he was intimidated, demoted, and asked to not testify. By whom? The White House said that the intelligence community assembled Susan Rice’s talking points, but Congressional review of documents revealed something else. The talking points had been edited at least 12 times before Rice received them. The originals detailed prior security warnings and blamed the terrorist attack on Al Qaeda affiliate, Ansar Al Sharia. The final edition offered no reference to any terror groups nor anything about any warnings. It is interesting to note how the media is not nearly as enamored with Greg Hicks as they were with John Dean… Why?



Jay Carney, Obama Administration Spokesman

White House spokesman Jay Carney said that the edits made by both the CIA and the White House were “stylistic.” However, ABC’s Jonathan Karl (not a conservative), reported that significant edits were made only after a White House meeting on Sep. 15, the day before Rice appeared on the Sunday shows. Why?



This looks like a cover-up to me. The Obama campaign’s talking points that “Al Qaeda was on the run,” contradicted reality. They did everything, said anything they could to suggest this was a spontaneous attack caused by a video, and not a terrorist attack. It is worth noting that some people will say and do anything in order to save their butts and hold onto power. Where are Woodward and Bernstein when we need them?
