My question to follow this statement

"Let me say specifically about Susan Rice: She has done exemplary work. She has represented the U.S. and our interests in the U.N. with skill and professionalism and toughness and grace," said Mr. Obama. "If Senator McCain and Senator Graham and others want to go after somebody, they should go after me. And I'm happy to have that discussion with them. But for them to go after the U.N. ambassador? Who had nothing to do with Benghazi? And was simply making a presentation based on intelligence that she had received? To besmirch her reputation is outrageous."
BHO

OK, then tell this poster why the HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL she is making statements and answering questions about it?????????????????????????????
Spin it if you ca n
 
The news show wanted someone from the government to discuss the consulate attack. Is there something wrong with her performing that function? Even if General Petraeus had gone on the show in her place, he wouldn't have revealed any more information than she did. These sort of events involve security in order to protect the investigation into who committed the attack.

Why should her reputation be besmirched for sharing the information that the intelligence community approved for her interview on the news show? What did she do wrong?
 
Thats not the point

How can you answer questions about something you know nothing about?
The only way you can do that is if someone tells you what to say.
Obviously someone did, and that someone did NOT tell her the truth.
Someone told her is was because of a video.
That SOMEONE lied to her

You really don't have a clue as to how our government functions, do you? Yes, someone told her what to say. The intelligence community prepared briefs for public statements. Government officials don't just talk about these issues off-the-cuff. You are an ignorant person complaining about something that is so far beyond your scope of knowledge that it is absolutely ridiculous.
 
Pres Obama talked about Benghazi the day after in the Rose Garden. are you suggesting that he shouldn't have? he wasn't in Benghazi either.

BOB SCHIEFFER: And joining us now, Susan Rice, the U.N. ambassador — our U.N. ambassador. Madam Ambassador, he [the Libyan president of the National Assembly] says that this is something that has been in the planning stages for months. I understand you had been saying that you think it was spontaneous? Are we not on the same page here?

SUSAN RICE: Well, Bob, let me tell you what we understand to be the assessment at present. First of all, very importantly, as you discussed with the president, there is an investigation that the United States government will launch, led by the FBI that has begun.

SCHIEFFER: But they are not there yet.

RICE: They are not on the ground yet but they have already begun looking at all sorts of evidence of various sorts already available to them and to us. And they will get on the ground and continue the investigation.
So we'll want to see the results of that investigation to draw any definitive conclusions. But based on the best information we have to date, what our assessment is as of the present is in fact what — it began spontaneously in Benghazi as a reaction to what had transpired some hours earlier in Cairo, where, of course, as you know, there was a violent protest outside of our embassy sparked by this hateful video.
But soon after that spontaneous protest began outside of our consulate in Benghazi, we believe that it looks like extremist elements, individuals, joined in that effort with heavy weapons of the sort that are, unfortunately, readily now available in Libya post-revolution. And that it spun from there into something much, much more violent.

SCHIEFFER: But you do not agree with him that this was something that had been plotted out several months ago?

RICE: We do not — we do not have information at present that leads us to conclude that this was premeditated or preplanned.

SCHIEFFER: Do you agree or disagree with him that al-Qaeda had some part in this?

RICE: Well, we'll have to find out that out. I mean, I think it's clear that there were extremist elements that joined in and escalated the violence. Whether they were al-Qaeda affiliates, whether they were Libyan-based extremists or al-Qaeda itself I think is one of the things we'll have to determine.

And?
 
You don't $hit about Libyan post Khaddifi...or anything about the Middle east except what you hear on Fox News
 
Unbelievable.

I sit here explaining that Susan Rice in my mind isnt guilty of anything, and you idiots try to convince me that I am saying she is guilty of something of which I have no clue of what that be, or what you concieve that it might be.

Please enlighten me on where you think I say she is guilty of any damn thing

Why did you implicitly attack her reputation in your top post?

What was the purpose of your top post, if you agree that she has done nothing wrong?
 
These Loud Mouth Right Wing Jack asses need to shut up...If they accuse Susan Rice of Lying...Show some proof?
