Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion:
The liberal talking point about the Benghazi committee is that Hillary Clinton won the battleand emerged unscathed but in order to believe that, you first have to ignore one major lie that was uncovered. The attack had nothing to do with a video.
That is not what we were told. The idea of a terror attack on an American embassy on 9/11 just before a presidential election didn’t match Obama’s grandiose claims that al Qaeda was on the run.
In the days that followed the Benghazi attack, the lie about it being based on a video was parroted by Hillary Clinton, Jay Carney, Susan Rice and even Obama himself.
Sean Hannity put together a helpful video as a reminder.
David Rutz of the Washington Free Beacon:
Hannity Plays Montage of Obama Administration Members Falsely Blaming Video for Benghazi Attack
Sean Hannity played a montage Thursday night on his Fox News show of Obama administration officials, including then-secretary of state Hillary Clinton, falsely casting blame for the Benghazi terrorist attack on an anti-Muslim video when her own emails reveal that Clinton knew almost immediately it was an orchestrated assault.
During Clinton’s day of testimony Thursday before the Benghazi Select Committee, Rep. Jim Jordan (R., Ohio) showed Clinton had told the Egyptian prime minister, the president of Libya and her own family in the days following the attack that she knew the attack was pre-planned and had nothing to do with any video.
The bottom line is this: They lied.
They lied and the media which helped them get away with it, is now insisting that the Benghazi hearings were a big nothingburger which actually helps Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.
Media bias is one thing but this goes beyond that.
This is disinformation.
