The CIA Kicks the Last Leg Out From Under the Benghazi Cover Up

The Benghazi Attack cover-up is going to go down as the biggest since Watergate.  Some would argue that a cover up involving the first slain ambassador since 1979 should actually dwarf the college-prank breaking-in of the DNC by the Nixon Republicans.

Obama asserted two defenses for his touting of the youtube video as the impetus for the Beghazi Attack: A) They were straightforward with the American people by conveying the best intelligence as it developed, i.e. the intelligence community initially told them that it was the video.  B) The White House never heard of any security requests by the Libyan diplomats.  Those requests didn't make it out of the State Dept.

Hillary tried to take the fall for the security requests, but no one would have respected Obama as a President if he didn't own up to that himself.  As for the faulty intelligence, today's news of a CIA report within 24 hours of the attack asserting that it was a militant attack and not connected to the video pretty well sinks that claim.  Now it's all but proven that the administration knowingly attributed the attack to the video and not to the obvious explanation of a terrorist attack on 9/11.

So what's the motive of the cover up exactly?  I guess the most obvious is to hide the failure of the Obama foreign policy in the Middle East with respect to killing (and bragging about the killings of) Qaddafi, bin Laden, et al.  That's the most obvious.  The other motive is the one I was on to earlier about Obama wanting to curtail free speech when it comes to anything offensive to Muslims.  While it's perhaps more complicated and far-fetched and not so beneficial with regards to the election, which we have to assume is the primary motivation, a few of the other pieces more easily fit into place: A) It's a good example of a crisis not going to waste.  Fewer people would complain about a ban on anti-Islamic rhetoric if it's in the interest of preventing attacks like this one  B) It would explain Hillary's willingness to participate in spreading the narrative.  Both Obama and Hillary have been fighting for the OIC-sponsored U.N. resolution condemning such offensive expressions, and C) this fits in precisely with Obama's speech to the U.N., "the future must not belong to those who would slander the prophet of Islam..."

Admittedly, neither of those reasons hardly seems worth all the trouble of this month-long cover-up, so maybe there's even something more sinister we haven't imagined yet.  Whatever the reason, it's a blatant cover-up on the heels of Fast and Furious and a miserable economic record and together, these should be more than enough to vote Obama out.  He's clearly screwing with us.
