Obama and His Media Loyalists Still Spinning Benghazi

Family Security Matters

The media and Obama administration  are at it again, trying to defend their earlier actions on Benghazi. For weeks  following the September 11, 2012 attacks, President Obama and his colleagues  blamed them on a spontaneous demonstration inspired by protests in Cairo, a  position that has been repeatedly found to be patently untrue.

But Obama would prefer that the  American public ignore this and his other “phony” scandals. In fact, he told  Bill O’Reilly in a recent pre-Super Bowl  interview that scandals like the IRS  controversy are the result of irresponsible reporting by Fox News. “These kinds  of things keep on surfacing in part because you and your TV station will promote  them,” he told O’Reilly.

In an effort to convince us that  Benghazi is not a scandal, Obama, arguing with O’Reilly, once again attempted to  defend his completely indefensible narrative that in fact he said from day one  that it was a terrorist attack (or in his words, “an act of terror”), and that  the decision to claim the attack was the result of a spontaneous demonstration,  sparked by an anti-Islam video, was made with the best information  available.
