    Question: Members of Congress and the Senate knew of the revisions for months. Why is this now being reported as breaking news?

    Carney previously said the only revision that came from the White House or State Department was changing the word consulate. Any other revisions, according to Carney, were done by the CIA without input from anyone at State or WH. Now we have proof that this was a false statement.

    This lady doesn't care about politics at all. She blames Hillary Clinton.

    It's funny how you want to smear one side for playing politics when it's clear the administration in charge that you align yourself with made this about politics from the start.

    Are Republicans above the fray? Certainly not, but you seem quite confident Democrats aren't playing politics here when they've been caught red-handed.

    Basically, all of your BS spin can be thrown right back in your face. You're spitting into the wind on this one.

    Republicans raising money off of Democratic dishonesty versus Democrats lying to Americans about a terrorist attack and the death of 4 Americans citizens right before an election. No moral equivalency there. Not even close.

    Mark, if you aren't gonna address evidence, then don't bother trying to retort. It will just come off as spin.

    Trying to hide a terrorist attack under the guise of a protest gone too far caused by a Youtube video. aka lying. The State Department lied to the American people and to the faces of the victim's families. Disgusting.

    Also why are you posting TPM images? Didn't you just complain about someone posting an article from what you think is a right-wing source?

    Yawn

    You let us all know when this reaches the level of lying the country into a war that cost us 4000 Americans, 100,000 Iraqis, 6 trillion dollars and almost destroyed our economy.

    You freaks are pathetic

    Tell you what. Once we arrest Bush and Cheney then we can talk about your grievances with this administration.

    Fine. If you're willing to arrest Bush and Cheney, lets go ahead and get all those folks who signed off on that war.

    This includes Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Harry Reid, John Kerry and Chuck Schumer. They all voted for the authorization of force.

    We can also throw in Colin Powell for his presentation at the UN too if that would make your panties wet.

    No one was lied too. They were told information they had at the time. There is no coverup.

    And FU for questioning my morals.

    Oh look, it's the final step in the "Debate Like A Democrat" playbook! When all else fails, reference Bush being a criminal, thereby ending any attempt at rational debate!

    Way to try Godwinning the thread mc. Do you try blaming everything on Bush, or is it just when you try to obfuscate?

    So you guys don't have evidence of a cover up just conspiracy theories. This is why most of the nation is not outraged like you guys because you have not provided evidence about a cover up. Getting bad information at the time and reporting what they were told and correcting it when they got the correct information is NOT a cover up ffs. Should they have handled it differently? Probably, but don't act like this isn't for political gain to use against the Dems.

    Except that isn't what happened and the emails from the state department and Petraeus confirm it. They had good information, they knew it was an attack by an Al Qaeda linked group and they wanted to hide that information. Newland (sp?) flat out says that her superiors won't be happy with talking points that included references to the terror attacks. The video never appeared in the talk points. Hillary and Obama simply made up the connection.

    If justtxyank says so it must be true. :rolleyes: No evidence, no point in talking about this further until someone shows me concrete evidence.
