Panetta: ‘From The Beginning’ I Knew Benghazi Was A Terrorist Attack

No surprise, eh. Only took 2 + years for someone with the stones to call out the Scumbag-in-Chief as a freeeeeekin liar.

Thanks Leon. Where were you when it mattered?

Former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said he knew Benghazi was a “terrorist attack” from the beginning, despite the Obama administration touting the incident was a “spontaneous demonstration.”

Panetta made the comments on MSNBC on Tuesday during an interview with Andrea Mitchell.

“I didn’t have any specific information, but the fact was–when you bring grenade launchers to a demonstration, there’s something else going on,” Panetta said. “And I just, from the very beginning, sensed that this was an attack. This was a terrorist attack on our compound.”

In the secretary’s new book, Worthy Fights, he outlines his criticism of President Obama and the administration for its inaction, especially in regard to pulling U.S. troops out of Iraq and other foreign policy issues.

Panetta, who served as director of the Central Intelligence Agency under Obama before becoming secretary of defense, was particularly critical of the administration’s coverup about the Benghazi attacks.

During the interview Panetta said Obama lacked the passion required of a leader.

I stopped reading at the Bold. If he wasn't trying to sell a book I might be more inclined to listen, but as it is, just another huckster making a buck.

Obama's OWN Secretary of Defense...is a "huckster", huh?

 

Yesh! More BENGHAZI!

 

Yeah, god forbid anyone that writes a book to impart information.

The book comment is lame Cubed. Feel free to disprove anything Panetta said?

 

The only lies here are the republicans who somehow have ignored that President Obama called it an "act of terror" the day it happened and within 48 hours had said it was a planned terrorist attack and not a spontaneous demonstration.

I guess republicans are just so desperate. The GOP leadership haven't mentioned Benghazi in a while, because they know it is just stupid and that everyone but the rabid right wing haters think they are full of it on the subject... Mr. Panetta has some books to sell to these rabid right wingers though.

 

So you don't think he is hucking his book with this book tour? And you don't think he is trying to make some headlines in order to sell books? Who do you think is naive?

 

Hey, what about the video?

You are going to hurt yourself

with all this contortion of the truth trying

to protect your lying president.

If his mouth is moving he is lying.

 

What does Leon have to reveal about the birth certificate?

 

OK, so he thought it was a terrorist attack,

So what?

That doesn't prove anything other than Leon Panetta thought it was a terrorist attack.,

As your own post states, he had no definitive information.

Why do you clowns keep flogging this nonsense??????

 

Really? You don't think that giving an opinion on a subject and passing it as 'fact' when he has no direct information, and hasn't said Anything about it up until now when, magically, he happens to have a book on sale, is a littttttttttttle fishy?

Clinton , Panetta ,Gates all phoney garbage that comes out of this White House kitchen . Why didn't they come out when the country needed the truth ,why didn't they resign in disgust? This is part of the Clinton playbook to distance her from this administration failures . They are ripping apart the boss they held near and dear and throwing him under the bus . Somethings very wrong with this democratic party ! Republicans at their worst couldn't compete with the democrats that hold the power buttons of today .You democrats are in it up to your necks because you stay silent just like Obama's "Friends".
No honor ,no integrity ,no sense = today's democratic party

 

I saw Panetta on O'Reilly tonight where it was

further confirmed that obama is a lying inept

example of a President. After that I watched

Megyn Kelly and Dana Perino talk about how

stupid obama is. I love Fox for the truth, can't wait

to listen to Rush tomorrow. I just wish obama

had the good common sense and ask Sarah Palin

for some advice.

 

Yea, sure, right. We've seen it today where there were 5 airstrikes, just 5 on the ISIS forces, when it should have been 50 or 100 to stop their advance. This is Obama's faux war and Panetta has the right and good reason to call Obama out naming him a liar.

 

wait, I thought you guys were pissed because he said he wasn't going to war and he did anyway??

 

You call this going to war?

Does that mean you are a "Birther" and still looking like Hillary is? Remember her campaign group began asking questions about Obama birth certificate and where he was born.

 

Did anyone else laugh their (*)(*)(*)(*)ing ass off reading this as much as I did?!?! LOLOLOLOL!!

 

The Obamapologists are finding it almost impossible to cover for Dear Leader these days....all they have left is to play the racecard and it doesn't work anymore.

 

How exactly does one go about "disproving" somebody else's personal opinion? If it could be done, there wouldn't be any right or left wingnuts left.

 

The most cool part about this l'affair Prezzy is watching the collapse of a political machine. It's historic. One you can tell the grandkids about.

Fire up something mellow, sit back, relax and savor the events. Some of it may hurt today but by the good gawdz, it's efficking historic.

 

Who can ever forget the 2nd Obama/Romney debate when Romney was shown his butt in the mirror by the moderator when he claimed Obama did not call it terrorism. I guess the OP missed that one.

After Romney argued that “it took the president 14 days before he called the attack terrorism ... “He did in fact, sir”—that is, Obama did call it a terrorist attack.

Yep. And you're still hanging onto that.

Are you still with the program that Hillary killed Vince Foster and had the drug running operation into Mena, Arkansas? Or are you going to wait until Hillary runs to roll that crap out?

 

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh. You mean when he was "shown his butt" by a moderator who later admitted she was wrong? And of course anyone with any sense of decency knew she shouldn't have interjected her scattered thoughts into the so-called debate in the first place, but she did later say she called it wrong. But it sure is fun watching Candy spin. OMG, the spin just plain makes me dizzy:
