Benghazi scandal tied to White House
- Thread starter Goober
- Start date
The Obama administration knew that the US Embassy was attacked by terrorists the night of the attack. So why did Obama's UN Secty claim the Benghazi incident was the result of a video made by a Coptic Christian living in Southern California?
Still waiting on you to answer the basic questions that you brought up.
Are you ok with the fact that the chair of this committee said that he intends to conduct this in purely partisan way in order to get back at Nancy Pelosi?
No there has never been a equal committee the majority has always had the chair .
When has GWB ever been held accountable.
election fraud
hurricane Katrina
9/11
WMD
Iraq
If that's the "accountable" you want for Obomber, he`d welcome it.
Helluva job, Brownie.
That plays like a ear worm in my mind somedays.
.............watch this swing...........
FUKK !
GWB should swing from the gallows. But the incompetence of GWB provides Barack Hussein Obama with zero immunity from the consequences of his own incompetence.
Obama's decision to get rid of Libyan strongman Gadhafi opened up Pandora's Box:
"The security and political situation in Libya has continued to deteriorate since the fall of Colonel Muammar al-Qaddafi in October 2011. The 2011 uprising emboldened divisions among political and tribal groups and preexisting secessionist tendencies, with the Cyrenaica part of eastern Libya electing its own federalist government in October 2013.
The political power of new state militias also contributes to the instability, with upwards of 1,700 armed groups in Libya. These militias have carried out attacks on foreign consulates—such as the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi—and also caused the Libyan prime minister to flee in March 2014.
Additionally, protestors and militia groups threaten to close oil pipelines and gas fields as they have in the past, obstructing Libya’s oil production—dropping from 1.4 million barrels per day (bpd) in April 2013 to 200,000 bpd in April 2014—and potentially contributing to a spike in the global oil market prices.
In order to help rebuild and refocus Libya’s security infrastructure, the United States will train 5,000 to 8,000 security forces, as it is increasingly concerned about the regulation of terrorist activities and weapons transfers across the country’s unmonitored borders."

Lol, did you write that headline yourself? The word "Obama" doesn't appear anywhere in the link you provided.
Why did the the White House withhold from Congress an e-mail from White House advisor Ben Rhodes instructing then–ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice to “underscore these protests are rooted in an Internet video, and not a broader failure of policy?"
So you think a panel of partisan politicians in the middle of trying to get reelected are the best team to find answers?

Pelosi just said with a completely straight face that Democrats would provide openness and transparency on Benghazi. Must be the Botox
