House intel panel debunks many Benghazi theories
WASHINGTON (AP) — A two-year investigation by the Republican-controlled House Intelligence Committee has found that the CIA and the military acted properly in responding to the 2012 attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, and asserted no wrongdoing by Obama administration appointees.
Debunking a series of persistent allegations hinting at dark conspiracies, the investigation of the politically charged incident determined that there was no intelligence failure, no delay in sending a CIA rescue team, no missed opportunity for a military rescue, and no evidence the CIA was covertly shipping arms from Libya to Syria.
In the immediate aftermath of the attack, intelligence about who carried it out and why was contradictory, the report found. That led Susan Rice, then U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, to inaccurately assert that the attack had evolved from a protest, when in fact there had been no protest. But it was intelligence analysts, not political appointees, who made the wrong call, the committee found. The report did not conclude that Rice or any other government official acted in bad faith or intentionally misled the American people.

Watch Pres. Obama And Malia Mock Chuck Todd’s Book Cover
To support Small Business Saturday, Pres. Obama has made a tradition of doing some of his holiday shopping at D.C. area small businesses. For the last two years, he and his daughters have shopped at Politics and Prose, a popular Washington bookstore. As they were checking out this year, they were captured on camera exchanging banter about Meet the Press host Chuck Todd’s book, The Stranger: Barack Obama in the White House, which the president spotted behind the counter. He feigned surprised delight and said:

Amazon

“Oh, Chuck Todd! Let’s see what Chuck has to say here…”
Malia, clearly amused, asked:
“How is he writing a book already?”
They then discussed the very lonely and sad looking photo on the book’s cover.
Obama “Look, he’s lonely.
Malia: “Sad.”
Obama: “Looking alienated…oh my. He’s so sad.”
Malia: “It’s just, like, a sad photo.”

The cashier weighed in:
“They tried to find the saddest photo they could.”

The New York Post incorrectly reported that Pres. Obama was calling Chuck Todd “sad.” The president was actually joking about how sad his own image looks. Chuck Todd himself was quick to point that out, too.
