Opinion: Scandals undermine trust in Obama
Looks to me like someone other than Republicans is "obfuscating". Your comments make absolutely no points other than to say Obama didn't do it. Two can play that game. Prove he didn't do it. Can you tell us where the President was while all of this was going on? He appears to have been MIA from about 5 PM until the next morning when he appeared at a fund raiser.

Opinion: Scandals undermine trust in Obama
Just as I stated in my reply to deec, there is nothing in any of the links you have provided that negates the fact that the talking points were altered to depict an entirely different accounting of the events that transpired in Beghazi on 9/11. If emails were altered, it appears to be very minor and brought up only to discredit the Republicans. The fact that this administration lied to the American people is a fact. The only conceivable reason for doing so is to protect the Obama re-election narrative. The fact that urgent requests for security prior to the attacks has not been addressed in any of your links so I have to believe those emails were legitamate and ignored by the state department. Will you now attempt to discredit the testimony of whistleblower Greg Hicks who was actually there and desperately tried to get help for the ambassador from the State Department? Mr. Hicks also confirmed that security requests from the ambassador were ignored. Pretty damning testimony. Particularly after he had been demoted by this administration for telling the truth concerning this outrage.

Rather weak Democrat rebuttal don't you think? The fact remains that the talking points were revised 11 times in an effort to scrub any references to Al-Qaeda or terrorists. There is no denying that this administration deliberately lied to the American people concerning the events at Benghazi. If there were edits to the original emails describing the way this happened, they do not change this fact. Sorry, but this information does not change a thing. As Obama would say...FORWORD with the investigation.

I believe it took 2 years before the Democrats nailed Nixon for Watergate. This ain't Watergate...yet.

Oh well then...just because there is a lot evidence pointing to wrong doing does not warrant further investigation because the polls say that it hasn't hurt either Obama or Hillary in the popularity polls. Gotcha'.

You must be ahead of me. I have not heard of any "doctored" emails.
Please provide a source.

Opinion: Benghazi triggers a major credibility crisis
Funny how you like to infer things from my posts that were not stated or otherwise even remotely connected. Why do far left zealots engage in this type of behavior? It adds absolutely nothing to the dicussion so I have to believe it is intended only to mislead and indirectly insult the intended target.

Don't change the channel Bozo. There will certainly be more information forthcoming much to the chagrin of far left zealots.

Opinion: Benghazi triggers a major credibility crisis
It's only during the past week that the main stream media has finally begun to give Benghazi-gate any amount of coverage. The press provided coverage for other previous scandals during the past years like Solyndra, Fast and Furious, White House security leaks, etc. Coverage of any Obama scandals has only received exposure since the AP discovered that they were being spyed on by the very administraton they have been helping. I wonder if that has anything to do with it? BTW, Mr. Holder has recused himself from the AP investigation. What is he hiding? What did he hide when Obama bailed him out with Executive Privilege in the FAst and Furious scandal? Even the left should be interested in stopping these types of abuses of power.

PS: The "bounce" for Obama you reference is well within the sampling error for previous poles suggesting that Americans may still be thinking about the very recent facts so very recently surfacing during the last week. And we will surely learn more in the months ahead. This isn't going away anytime soon much to the chagrin of the left.
