It works because you can go to any Facebook page from a Libturd and you'll see something like this. There's even a meme where Michelle and Oblunder are turning out the lights in the WH and when they click the switch the whole U.S. goes dark, implying that because they're not in the WH we'll be in the dark. We were for 8 years but to those sycophants they were gods.
Interesting that you see these things, but me, a liberal, has no idea what you're even talking about.
…and I'm not surprised.

Knowingly or unknowingly, Rice presented false statements on national TV. Knowingly makes her a liar. Unknowlingly makes her a stooge.

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.
GOP panel on Benghazi finds no Obama administration wrongdoing
Sorry Tom.
They can issue all the gubment speak "reports" they'd like, NOBODY bought that line of bullschit the Sunday she took to air to start start spewing it, ain' nobody buying it now.
Of course not, because it was determined LATER to be incorrect! But as the report states, at the time (again...just shortly after the attack) she was just passing along what the intelligence reports were saying happened.
So why were there folks in the State Dept who had spoke with their people in Libya thinking that Rice was and I quote "off the reservation"?

Quote:But included in the newly-released Benghazi Committee report is the revelation that even within the Obama administration, State Department officials were flabbergasted by Rice’s appearances.
“State Department employees in Washington D.C. who had spoken with those on the ground in Libya after the attack were universal in their condemnation of Rice’s statements,” the Republican-controlled committee revealed, citing emails obtained in the course of their investigation.
The State Department’s Senior Libya Desk Officer wrote an email to his colleagues saying, “I think Rice was off the reservation on this one.”
“Off the reservation on five networks!” agreed the Deputy Director of the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs.
“Yup,” agreed the bureau’s Senior Advisor for Strategic Communications. “Luckily there’s enough in her language to fudge exactly what she said/meant.”
“[The White House is] very worried about the politics,” he guessed. “This was all their doing.”
Oh and this goes again what you posted:
Quote:Also included in the new report is the revelation that Rice was not briefed by the CIA, Defense Department, or State Department officials before making the Sunday show appearances. Instead she was briefed by David Plouffe… Barack Obama‘s 2012 campaign manager.

Tom is the epitome of a Gruber. Obama counted on people like him.
