Not only did Obama lie, Hillary Clinton lied, Ambassador Susan Rice lied, and Press Secretary Jay Carney lied. Why no outrage by the American people?? This is unbelievable. Where are You CBS, NBC, MSNBC, NPR, CNN????
The Obama administration insisted--though it knew otherwise--that the attacks were provoked by an anti-Islam film made in the U.S. by a Coptic Christian.
Worse, the Obama administration inflamed the supposed outrage over the film by telling the world that the U.S. condemned it and was not responsible for it--even buying airtime on Pakistani television to broadcast that apologetic message.
It also sent a signal that American principles of free expression were up for negotiation by suggesting that free speech did not include the right to insult other people’s religions, and Islam in particular.
Now, as new details emerge every day about what the Obama administration knew and when, it is clear that President Barack Obama lied shamelessly to the American people about a terror attack that claimed American lives.
The lies were repeated by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and UN Ambassador Susan Rice, among other officials. That the lies were likely told for political reasons is not an excuse but cause for additional alarm.

As stated in the video, the administration is now admitting Benghazi was a terrorist attack, but the timelines and extraneous evidence (including a collection of different media outlets reporting) show they knew this much earlier than they let on. Only in the last couple days have they finally abandoned the irresponsible blaming of the video (that arguably resulted in the video becoming much wider known than it would have otherwise). So, this is the most transparent presidency ever? But with this hesitant, fits and starts choosing of the explanation for events in Libya, the natural question is who knew what, and when. And did the administration really lie?

"The most dangerous times in our political history" Pat Caddell says the media is now the enemy of the American People. And he is a Democrat.
“We’ve had nine days of lies over what happened because they can’t dare say it’s a terrorist attack, and the press won’t push this,” said Caddell. “Yesterday there was not a single piece in The New York Times over the question of Libya. Twenty American embassies, yesterday, are under attack. None of that is on the national news. None of it is being pressed in the papers.”
Caddell added that it is one thing for the news to have a biased view, but “It is another thing to specifically decide that you will not tell the American people information they have a right to know.”

…And I think frankly if this issue gets the traction it deserves. Let’s go back. Richard Nixon was forced out of office because he lied. And because he covered some stuff up. I’m going to blunt and tell you this. Nobody died in Watergate. We have some people who are dead because of this. And there are some questions that should be answered and Americans ought to demand to get answers.” Mike Huckabee

No demonstration before attack on US Consulate, source says
An intelligence source on the ground in Libya told Fox News that there was no demonstration outside the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi prior to last week's attack -- challenging the Obama administration's claims that the assault grew out of a "spontaneous" protest against an anti-Islam film.
"There was no protest and the attacks were not spontaneous," the source said, adding the attack "was planned and had nothing to do with the movie."
The source said the assault came with no warning at about 9:35 p.m. local time, and included fire from more than two locations. The assault included RPG's and mortar fire, the source said, and consisted of two waves.

Benghazi-Gate: A Timeline of Government Deceit, Deception, and Outright Lies
There's no question that what we have here is the DNI (Obama appointee James Clapper) attempting to fall on his sword and to put an end to the drumbeat of scandal coming mostly from Republicans and right-of-center media. What's been exposed, just weeks before a presidential election, is the fact that in the aftermath of the Benghazi attack, the White House and State Department knowingly misled and lied to the American people about what they knew and when they knew it.

US officials knew Libya attack was terrorism within 24 hours
U.S. intelligence officials knew within 24 hours of the assault on the U.S. Consulate in Libya that it was a terrorist attack and suspected Al Qaeda-tied elements were involved, sources told Fox News -- though it took the administration a week to acknowledge it.

U.S. intelligence officials knew within 24 hours of the assault on the U.S. Consulate in Libya that it was a terrorist attack and suspected Al Qaeda-tied elements were involved, sources told Fox News -- though it took the administration a week to acknowledge it.
Now, Fox News can in fact confirm that within 24 hours of the assault on the Benghazi Consulate, the Obama administration in fact knew with certainty that this was indeed a terrorist attack.
Now, two sources also tell Fox that U.S. intelligence officials were even aware that the assault was coordinated by Al Qaeda-affiliated operatives. Again, all of this was verified on September the 12th, less than a day after ambassador Stevens, two Navy SEALs and one other American were assassinated.
But rather than tell the truth and acknowledge that the Al Qaeda link existed and admit that the president's triumphant killing of bin Laden was by no means marking the end of international terrorism, members of the administration chose to lie and initiate what appears to be a widespread cover-up about what they knew and when they knew it.

If this story gets traction, this should end Obama's days in the White House. It is shameful and disgraceful, not to mention dishonest. It doesn't matter if you are Republican or Democrat, the American people should never be lied to.

First off. there's no evidence that Obama lied. No where in this thread, or outside of this thread, is there evidence that such an offense occurred.
Secondly,
Obama definitely blew it. They all blew it. This has happened before, so I'm not surprised. We're always telling ourselves how much the rest of the world loves America, is even jealous of America. Obviously, that's not the case (it's never been the case). And when this happens, as it has happened before, they attempt to cover up their poor judgement.
Thirdly,
Candidate Romney certainly has a nice target on Obama's chest, if he chooses to aim there. But he's done nothing right so far, so I fully expect him to blow this one also.
Fourth,
American's don't really care about foreign policy. We're too poorly educated. So, it's not the big target it should be. In fact, Romney can take aim there all he wants, but I'm not sure it will get the results he's aiming for. Which is why he might not go there, strategically. Personally, I hit it hard, very hard. Drive it home. But I doubt he will. He's just to incompetent. And, as I said, American's won't really bite on it anyway. We've never had a candidate win/lose based on foreign policy.
In other words,
Obama is still a lock (but there is a key - will Romney use it?)

President Obama Lies to Univision About Operation Fast and Furious
Univision reporter Jorge Ramos did the job the American press won't do by asking Barack Obama tough questions, including questions on the topic of Fast and Furious. Obama of course tried to dodge the question by falsely citing Fast and Furious as starting under the Bush Administration. In reality, Fast and Furious was initiated in September 2009 and was carried out starting in October 2009, well into President Obama's first term. From the Univision interview:

So now we have video proof that the president knew this was an act of terror the morning after the attack. This fits perfectly with what we've learned over the past few days regarding U.S. intelligence. Numerous news outlets are now reporting that within 24 hours of the attack, our government knew that what happened in Libya had been a terrorist committed by al-Qaeda.
And yet, for days and days and days afterward, the Obama Administration lied to the media and to the American people in order to spare themselves from headlines that would read: American Ambassador Assassinated By Al-Qaeda on 9/11 Anniversary -- because they knew those headlines would only raise questions about security and undermine the narrative Obama had fabricated that told us his "smart power" and apology tours had made us safer.
Team Obama also knew the truth would shake up the presidential race, and not to their advantage.

I'm afraid that this can most likely all be chalked up to astounding ineptitude, naivete, the wish to not look like a moron, and not nefarious conspiracy.
At the very worst he misled the American people and inserted a story that gave the administration cover.
Why not look into the networks that he utilized and what they stood to gain from it.
If anything this is a blazing indictment of those that we task with the job of reporting the news.
Journalism is dead. The Bush and Obama administration paid for the funeral.

Benghazi was very Carteresque.

Benghazi: Multiple Requests for Increased Security Denied by Washington
According to the letter, "multiple U.S. federal government officials have confirmed to the Committee that, prior to the September 11th attack, the U.S. mission in Libya made repeated requests for increased security in Benghazi. The mission in Libya, however, was denied these resources by officials in Washington."
The letter offers a partial timeline of attacks on western outposts in Tripoli and Benghazi which shows a pattern of targeting western diplomats and outposts. It also suggests the attacks were escalating in their boldness, i.e. late night attacks give way to strikes in broad daylight. What follows is summary of the incidents mentioned in Issa's letter:
April 6, 2012 - An IED is thrown over the consulate fence in Benghazi.
April 11, 2012 - A gun battle 4km from the Benghazi consulate.
April 25, 2012 - A US Embassy guard in Tripoli is detained at a militia checkpoint.
April 26, 2012 - A fistfight escalates into a gunfight at a Benghazi Medical University and a US Foreign Service Officer in attendance is evacuated.
April 27, 2012 - Two South African contractors are kidnapped in Benghazi, questioned and released.
May 1, 2012 - Deputy Commander of the local guard force in Tripoli is carjacked and beaten.
May 22, 2012 - RPG rounds are fired at the Red Cross outpost in Benghazi.
June 2012 - A pro-Gaddafi Facebook page posts photos of Ambassador Stevens making his morning run in the city of Tripoli and made a threat toward the Ambassador.
June 6, 2012 - An IED is left at the gate of the US consulate in Benghazi.
June 10, 2012 - RPG is fired at the convoy carrying the British Ambassador in broad daylight as he is nearing the British consulate in Benghazi. No one is killed but the British later close the consulate.
Late June, 2012 - Another attack on the Red Cross outpost in Benghazi, this one in daylight. The Red Cross pulls out leaving the US consulate the last western outpost in the city.
August 6, 2012 - Attempted carjacking of a vehicle with US diplomatic plates in Tripoli.
Weeks prior to Sept. 11, 2012 - Libyan guards at the Benghazi consulate are "warned by their family members to quit their jobs" because of rumors of a "impending attack."

BENGHAZI, Libya — More than three weeks after attacks in this city killed the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three other Americans, sensitive documents remained only loosely secured in the remains of the U.S. mission here on Wednesday, offering visitors easy access to delicate details about American operations in Libya.
