the Republican hacks involved in the Petraeus affair drive the debate. Why not just push Fox Noise's version? It has already been revealed that the idiot at the FBI was a conspiracy theorist who thought there was a cover up.

People never friggin learn.

Even by the standards of fake stories this is sad.

(The linked piece is 5 days old, BTW. It would not be written today because once sane people who do not watch FOX realized that Fox made that claim on TV that day, there is no need to explain how a wingnut came to believe a false story she heard on Fox.)

And this conspiracy requires us to believe that FOX, and only Fox, is right, and that the administration is lying.

please provide link to Fox stating that prior to her saying so.

I think there's reason to doubt which one caused the other.

onstage to give a pre-written speech, that she heard Faux say there were prisoners kept at the consulate or annex in Benghazi, and decided to drop this bombshell on her audience.

Otay.

Americans stupid.

The RW is consumed with them, which is why they're having such a hard time dealing with the election outcome. I mean, children distraught and suicide, firings and threats.

Lunacy!

But like I said, but apparently you did not grasp, it's possible that Fox fed her, or that she fed Fox.

which event occurred first.

Personally I would doubt she re-reported Fox.

Feel free to doubt it or believe what you want.

And it's likely that if this is true then it explains why the CIA was giving the WH conflicting stories concerning the cause of the attack - it was illegal for them to hold prisoners there and it was Obama that made it illegal. These stories look to me as a possible cover-up.

She had better access to Petreaus than anyone, so why would she repeat something publicly supposedly said on Fox particularly when were it true her general she worshiped and was sleeping with would go to jail since holding prisoners there was illegal, and lying about it to the WH even worse... after all, the whole claim by the WH all the way along was that they were only repeating the conflicting stories the CIA was giving them concerning the reason for the attacks. And if this WAS the reason for the attacks, the CIA was lying and trying to cover up that they were illegally holding prisoners there and that their doing so was the cause of the attack.

When did Fox say this, and why would they of all media be so anxious to take down the Repub golden boy general when doing so took the Repub blame OFF Obama and putting it squarely on Petreaus who the media worshiped? Who was Fox's source for this info if not this public statement by Broadwell?

I'm talking about what Broadwell said publicly in her speech. Starts 40 seconds in on the video in the OP...

"I don't know if a lot of you have heard this, but the CIA annex had actually, um, had taken a couple of Libyan militia members prisoner, and they think that the attack on the consulate was an effort to try to get these prisoners back. So, that's still being vetted."

In other words, she is saying that the CIA was illegally taking Libyans as prisoners and the reason for the attack was the Libyan militia's attempt to rescue those prisoners.

The CIA vehemently denied this was true, and of course they would because it's been illegal by executive order since 2009.

But why would she say this at all??? Why in the world would she just pull something like that out of her butt? Obviously, if she had known it was illegal for the CIA to be doing this she would have kept her yap shut about it rather than blithely blabbing it publicly especially since it meant the end of her lover whom she worshiped and he could go to jail for it not just lose his job. This woman was the closest person to the CIA director, Petreaus, and was sleeping with him. She had access to him that no one else had and thus could have had information from him that no one else save the CIA agents there could likely get. Personally, I believe that what she so blithely publicly announced was likely true and the CIA is once again doing illegal shit and all the bumbling around with their various stories about what really happened were in an effort to try to cover this info up and hide it from the WH making the resignation of Petreaus for adultery part of his cover-up.

This is not about what Petreaus was doing with his weenie.

Petraues is known to be a renegade sort that didn't much like Obama and the rulebook.

Maybe he was asked to resign when it was discovered that prisoners were being held, that instead of causing big splashy blood spurt sounds all over that would take months to get over.

I don't trust that man, he's a sleaze with an ego - that combination = who the fuck is Obama to order ME around? Remember he is the one who had his little right wing think tank on the scene giving orders.

anyway, I didn't realize that FOX said the same thing as Broadwell did in this vid - that certainly makes one look at her speech a lot differently but there is still large possibilities things are not what they appear to be when it's CIA in the picture.
