Extra butter! This is going to get interesting....

No one will care, after all, there's a sex scandal taking precedence. Which story do you think the media will work harder on?

[SSC]

Complete and total cover up by Obama and company. Can't wait to hear the reaction from our member that works overseas and wanted to see what comes out of the investigation.

Is anybody actually surprised?

Do you have a transcript?

Do you have a transcript?

 

I believe these were closed hearings. But the nature of the testimony was being leaked last night.

[birdseye]

WASHINGTON (AP) — Ex-CIA Director David Petraeus told lawmakers Friday that classified intelligence showed the deadly raid on the U.S. Consulate in Libya was a terrorist attack, but that the administration withheld the suspected role of specific al-Qaida affiliates.

Where is the transparency we were promised?

 

I hope the real truth comes out and not more lies.

 

I bet Obama is hoping for another hurricane.

The General's testimony would seem to vindicate Ms. Rice unless it was her idea to change the talking points.

Rice was the sacrificial lamb, but I would hope somebody in her position isn't naive enough to believe it was over a youtube video.

Apparently the letter after the dash determined what you heard.

 

 

Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash., said claims the talking points were changed are "completely wrong." Besides, he said, the affiliation of Ansar al-Sharia, the militant group suspected in the attack, to Al Qaeda is still being examined.

Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., said the discrepancy can be attributed to the classified talking points that some saw versus the unclassified version that others, like U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice, used.
