Petraeus Said CIA's Talking Points Were Edited to Play Down Terrorism

I don't think Obama is interested in covering up a terrorist act - He is interested in covering up the details of the ambassador's mission and the CIA's mission in Benghazi......my resaearch points me to a kidnap attempt gone TERRIBLY wrong.  I think they were doing something the American public might not be agreeable to. Why else would they stay in a knowingly dangerous location, with inadeqaute security, and why would Washington go to such great lengths to distract our fellow citizens after the invasion and murders? Something ugly was going on in Benghazi. All of the "he knew this", and "she lied about that", and so and so is having an affair are all distractions from the reason the president lied.

Representative Peter King stated that former CIA Director David Petraeus stated that he knew the Benghazi attack was terrorism and that the talking points given to Ambassador Susan Rice were different from the ones prepared by the CIA. Petraeus stated Rice's talking points were edited to demphasized the possibility of terrorism.

For starters, King said Petraeus told them that the CIA talking points meant for U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice's Sept. 16 round robin of five Sunday network news shows, originally contained the information that there was evidence al-Qaeda elements were involved in the attack. These talking points were then altered through "an inter-agency process."

'Real-time' video shows Benghazi drama, but questions remain.

Washington (CNN) -- Thanks to testimony and "real-time" video, lawmakers said they got their clearest picture yet Thursday of the deadly attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Libya, though questions and tensions remain as to how President Barack Obama's administration handled the matter.

Sen. Rand Paul: Heads should roll over Benghazi, but Rice is not the issue

Someone should lose their job in the wake of the September attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya, Sen. Rand Paul said Wednesday on CNN's "Erin Burnett OutFront." "The person who decided to have no Marines guarding the ambassador should be fired, just plain and simple," he said, referring to Ambassador Chris Stevens, the U.S. delegate to Libya who died in the September 11 attack. "I don't think that's Susan Rice. I think we get involved with Ambassador Rice and we're getting off subject."

Sens. Lindsey Graham and John McCain said earlier in the day they would use parliamentary means to hold up her nomination for the top State Department post, should President Barack Obama nominate her. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has said she does not want to serve through Obama's second term but would stay in office until a replacement is confirmed.
