‘LIAR’: This is why Jay Carney was trending on Twitter | Twitchy.
Recent Benghazi background…
Brother of CBS News President at Center of Latest Benghazi Bombshell
Missing from much of the coverage of yesterday’s revelations that Senior White House adviser Ben Rhodes coordinated an effort to obfuscate the truth behind the Sept 11 2012 terror attacks in Benghazi was a key detail about the insidious relationship between politics and media in Washington.
The brother of Ben Rhodes is David Rhodes, president of CBS News.
Jay Carney Lies About the Benghazi Email
This email deals directly with the administration’s response to the Benghazi attack, and should have been produced long ago in response to requests by Congressional committees. Today reporter Jon Karl of ABC asked Carney why the Rhodes email is only now being made public. Carney squirmed painfully, and claimed that the email wasn’t produced because it isn’t about Benghazi, but rather about conditions in the Arab world generally: (video at link)
John Hinderaker concludes…
Carney’s claim that the Rhodes email did not need to be produced because it didn’t have to do with Benghazi is one more in a long series of desperate falsehoods dating back to September 11, 2012, when President Obama and his administration decided it was better to lie to the American people than to risk defeat in the upcoming election.
The MSM/Legacy media should ask themselves why it took so long to unravel. (Can you hear the Sounds of Silence? Truly an “old friend” for this crew.) The answer is of course, they haven’t been doing their jobs. Perhaps they should ask Ben Rhodes brother, David Rhodes who is President of CBS News (above link)
Also, with the Rhodes brothers working together it becomes all to clear why Sharyl Attkinson no longer works for CBS news. Of course, that doesn’t prevent her from being right, too long it took a year for vindication: Benghazi Revelations Vindicate Jonathan Karl, Sharyl Attkisson, which concludes…
For some, the conclusion that the administration was not in the wrong when they claimed the attack in Libya was a spontaneous event is one that cannot be shaken. This will not be the case for many, however, who see the latest email disclosures for the revelations they are. Chief among them are Karl and Attkisson who, it seems, were right all along.
Think Boulderites for the spontaneous event believers. Pick those with common sense that live outside both the Boulder and Washington bubbles who understand that Sharyl Attkisson and Jonathan Karl have been right all along. To those that have been in the middle, welcome.
