No Shame…..Susan Rice: ‘No Regrets Over Benghazi Remarks’

benghazi ghosts

Susan Rice skipped over FOX News to give an interview about Benghazi and instead choose to get a softball interview by David Gregory. Chris Wallace called her out:

No perhaps there Chris. She would never have gone on FOX because if she had she she knew she would be ripped to shreds, especially if she tried to say this as she did to Gregory:

Asked by host David Gregory if she had any regrets about the interviews, Rice replied: “No.”

“Because what I said to you that morning, and what I did every day since, was to share the best information that we had at the time,” Rice said. “The information I provided, which I explained to you, was what we had at the moment. It could change. I commented that this was based on what we knew on that morning, was provided to me and my colleagues and, indeed, to Congress, by the intelligence community. And that’s been well validated in many different ways since.”

“That information turned out, in some respects, not to be 100 percent correct,” she acknowledged. “But the notion that somehow I or anybody else in the administration misled the American people is patently false. And I think that that’s been amply demonstrated.”

Lying about lying.

Minutes after the American consulate in Benghazi came under assault on Sept. 11, 2012, the nation’s top civilian and uniformed defense officials — headed for a previously scheduled Oval Office session with President Obama — were informed that the event was a “terrorist attack,” declassified documents show. The new evidence raises the question of why the top military men, one of whom was a member of the president’s Cabinet, allowed him and other senior Obama administration officials to press a false narrative of the Benghazi attacks for two weeks afterward.

Gen. Carter Ham, who at the time was head of AFRICOM, the Defense Department combatant command with jurisdiction over Libya, told the House in classified testimony last year that it was him who broke the news about the unfolding situation in Benghazi to then-Defense Secretary Leon Panetta and Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The tense briefing — in which it was already known that U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens had been targeted and had gone missing — occurred just before the two senior officials departed the Pentagon for their session with the commander in chief.

Yet Rice and other officials, including Obama, continued to peddle the video lie for two weeks. Why? Because it helped advance one of Obama’s central re-election campaign theme’s. His presidency would change how the Arab world viewed us and al-Qaeda was on the run. If al-Qaeda attacked us that would counter all that propaganda, if it was spontaneous over a video then hey, it’s all good.

So, after knowing all that Susan Rice still goes on TV and says she has no regrets.

Chris Stevens, Glen Doherty, Tyrone Woods, and Sean Smith were unavailable for comment.

Do we know if she was a willing liar or simply another in a long line of useful idiots willing to be used and abused for the sake of protecting a failure?

We know she was lying because her lips were moving. As Rush said. This was not a news program but a celetration of getting away with lying and there were not consequences. Bastards just rubbed our faces in it, and no one does a thing about it. Americans have less balls then Ukrainians.

Rice has always been comfortable lying. No one in this regime knows shame or conscience..

@Bill Burris:

What difference does it make?

-and she would say otherwise? please she got a cushy promotion for being thrown to the wolves. Hopefully when all is said and done she will be very fashionable wearing her orange jumpsuit.

@Budvarakbar: It only makes a difference in the opinion of her, though I cannot imagine she did not suspect, at least, that she was a paid liar (like Carney) for the administration. After all, would ANYONE actually believe that foolish, thin and illogical story that an obscure internet video created a well-organized and equipped spontaneous uprising?

OK, that last line was pretty stupid of me; any liberal will believe whatever they are directed to believe. I’m just wondering, is there evidence that shows Rice knew anything other than what she was told to know?

Whether she’s a liar or a fool, doesn’t really matter. It’s the dolts out there who vote that really matter. She can lie all she wants, along with everyone of her playground friends, but those who will buy it are the ones really ruining things.

She, along with the Pres and everyone else in the cabinet and Senate, know there are just enough fools out there to tip the numbers in their favor.

It makes no difference to them what their elected officials do. They will not expend the energy it takes to investigate what they are told; only that someone they voted for says it’s true, and that’s it.

Susan Rice is an idiot. The problem is, she has way too much company.

We STILL don’t know when Obama knew it was a terrorist attack.
We STILL don’t know who it was who put forward this false narrative that merely helped Obama politically.
We only know Susan was willing to be thrown under the bus to help her boss get re-elected in spite of what really happened in Benghazi.
There were other lefties ready to do this nasty had she balked.
Look at Samantha Power’s Daniel Pearl Tweet as an example of the same mindset:

“Daniel Pearl’s story is reminder that individual accountability & reconciliation are required to break cycles of violence.”

Really Samantha?
How could Daniel Pearl have squirmed or bowed low enough so as not to be beheaded?
Isn’t that proof enough that the Obama/Rice/Powers worldview is one of the USA being the problem?
No wonder Rice was willing to proffer this worldview on TV 5 times on one Sunday.

Lying about a lie. We’ve reached the point no one believes what the administration says.

Some how I have Faith that their own (her) Shame will attribute to their own demise…somewhere down the line…because…Karma is a bitch…
