Why do cons assume that the White House knew the video story was a lie?

Because Obama is smart, at least according to liberals.

That's pretty good, but you are no Jay Carney.

Hell, the White House made up the story.

They damn well knew it was a lie.

First...What kind of idiot makes a public remark without checking his facts.

Second....If Iraq didn't have WMD's then who gassed the Iraqi people?

The fear of President Hillary.

ARE YOU AS STUPID AS YOUR QUESTION LEADS ME TO BELIEVE?

.......because they made it up.

If that assumption advances the story they want to tell, they will use it. If it does not, they will ignore it as long as they can get away with doing that. It is simple really. The GOP will not give a Democratic administration the benefit of the doubt. I would not expect them to do that, not in this environment, anyway.

It issue is concealing the involvement of KNOWN terrorists in the attack.

Benghazi talking points not shared with Clinton, Nuland says

July 11, 2013

'An initial version of the talking points had made references to al Qaeda and to “at least five other attacks” on foreign interests that had occurred in Benghazi prior to attacks that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. But, following Mrs. Nuland’s input, those references were removed from a final version the White House gave to former U.N. Ambassador Susan E. Rice for dissemination on several news talk shows.

'Mrs. Rice, who since has been named Mr. Obama’s national security adviser, made no mention of al Qaeda or terrorists on the talk shows, and instead said the Benghazi attacks had grown out of a spontaneous protest against an anti-Islam video.'

Former CIA official insists politics played no role in changes to Benghazi talking points

April 2, 2014

'He said the CIA knew that some of the individuals involved in the attack were al-Qaida from classified sources, information that couldn't be included unless it was declassified. The talking points were provided to members of the committee for dissemination to the American people.

'Morell said he removed references to the warnings based on previous CIA analysis. Otherwise, he said, the talking points would have been a "way for CIA to pound its chest and say 'we warned,' laying all the blame on the State Department."'

Which is consistent with liberals like you denying to this day that BILL CLINTON originated the WMD lie.

President Clinton orders attack on Iraq in 1998

Whether he invaded or not, HE DID TELL THE LIE BEFORE BUSH DID.

On that same day several of the protests at U.S. diplomatic facilities in Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Sudan, Egypt, Lebanon, Turkey, Yemen, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Iran, Bangladesh, and Malaysia turn violent so there is no way Benghazi was connected to those protest.

Well that's what they claim.

Liberals be like...

Man I got a flat tire...Damn it, George Bush.

Man I gotta pay child support...Damn it George Bush

Man I got aids...Damn it George Bush

Man, I got my paycheck. I love you Obama
