They didn't say 5 days later it was just a protest. They said that current information indicated it started as a protest which was joined by extremists.

The militant group reportedly claimed the video as motivation after the attack then recanted. The NYTimes reported attackers claiming video as the motivation after the attack. The initial and final drafts of CIA talking points included the line that suggested the video ignited the attack.

The CIA also did believe the militant group was involved early on and was investigating any links to alQaeda. Gen. Petraus is on record stating the terror references were intentionally removed by the CIA so as not to tip off any terror links that could be of value.

And what was left is what was given to Susan Rice. It's all out there...

Come on, this entire House investigation has been a sham. They made a conclusion (i.e. massive cover up) and have been desperately looking for anything to back it up. The findings from their report contained obvious errors, they withheld information from Democratic oversight members, they hired top gun GOP lawyers to usher whistle blowers forward and coordinated the entire thing with FOX News.

True, and one question you do not want to answer knowing you
would have to admit you would also be trying to pursue the truth.

Spence, your argument (that this is just a witch hunt) would be alot more compelling if multiple top Democrats in the House weren't calling for these hearings. I posted that, and asked you about that repeatedly. You didn't respond, and continue to call this a political witch hunt.

It must be very convenient when you spout these theories, and ignore any and all evidence that refutes your theories. Must make your life easier when you completely ignore any and all challenges...

It's funny the link you posted. Even FOX News can't get (i.e. don't want to get) the story straight, they continue to push discredited information long past when it was debunked. They have a chronic problem with this you know...

That a few Dems go along with the House investigation isn't refuting any theory...well, that's if you can even call it an investigation. They didn't investigate anything.

The entire point of this tirade was to drum up media coverage.

"That a few Dems go along with the House investigation isn't refuting any theory"

The hell it doesn't. It refutes your theory that the hearings were a political witch hunt.

In your mind, if Fox lies, they have no credibility? So why do you hold Hilary in such regard, afetr she lied about being shot at? Have fun with that one! It seems that you are quite selective at being outraged by dishonesty? Or am I mistaken?
