Mother of Sean Smith, Slain in Benghazi Terrorist Attack, Demands Answers From Obama, Hillary, Biden;
Says They Lied To Her Face
Stef Cutter: Benghazi Only A Political Issue "Because of Romney and Ryan"

The most damning thing is that she says these people -- and Susan Rice -- personally lied to her.

She's not saying she got these lies from TV. They personally lied to her.

Susan Rice told her it was because of the YouTube video.

Quoting them:

"We're checking up on it. Trust me. Oh I love that one: Trust me."

Devastating.

“Don’t give me any baloney that comes through with this political stuff,” Pat Smith told CNN’s Anderson Cooper Wednesday. Her son, Foreign Service Officer Sean Smith, was one of four Americans killed at the consulate in Benghazi on Sept. 11. “Just tell me the truth, what happened, and I still don’t know.”

Smith added, “The things they are telling me are just outright lies.” U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice, she said, told her the attack was a result of protests around an anti-Muslim video. “I don’t trust you anymore,” she said of the administration. “You — I’m not going to say lied to me, but you didn’t tell me and you knew.”

Thanks to Countrysquire.

Huge Update: I'm looking for the cite on this. But Philip Klein, a great reporter, tweeted it. (Actually he retweeted it: Buzzfeed's @buzzfeedandrew caught it.)

I'm going to put into headline form:

Obama Spokeswoman Stefanie Cutter: Benghazi Only An Issue Because "Romney and Ryan" Made It One

Video Up: I'm not sure she keeps her job.

Doublin' Down: Cutter tweets:

"Romney has politicized Libya w/no plans of his own. POTUS' priorities are getting facts & bringing terrorists to justice."

34 Cutter must be a republican plant---I mean that's the only way she makes sense....

So autopsy reports.

Can't even find out where they did them.

Could have been Ramstein--they might have done them stateside--Wilford Hall...maybe.

In any case it's gross negligence if they did not do them.

So *if* they did them and they are done by now.

In one of the very first briefings that I read on this State or someone said that they were doing the autopsies.

So she has a right to know the results by now--her son sacrificed his life for his country. He was also former AF.

52 At the end of the day, Obama will lose because of Libya. His instincts were to try and cover up and ride it out through the election. But there are only so many distractions that you can toss out there, before everyone knows the truth.

This is just more panicked scrambling trying to rescue the narrative.

He thinks it's retribution...for our sins of Colonialism.

People on Fox today, have been bringing up the Fort Hood massacre.
Which is good.
They are pointing to it, as another example of how the Barky Regime has tried to avoid using the word 'terrorism'.

But it is starting to bite them in the ass...calling the Fort Hood massacre, 'workplace violence'.
Apparently, the victims are not entitled to the same benefits, as they would be, if it were classified as a 'terrorist act'.

And they are starting to get very vocal about it.
Which is great.

Biden is prepared for the questions. Let's just accept that fact.

Biden will do fine if he sticks to the script he has memorized, and the debate will be called a 'draw.'

If Ryan wants to win, he must catch Biden off guard by throwing a few curve balls. Forget the script and the debate format. Make Biden trip and stutter and say something dumb.

108 If Obama doesn't dump her and start coming clean (or at least with new information) I think the press is about to dump on him. No way they are going down with him over his lies over Lybia. This love affair is almost over, and it was a love affair of their own making. But between this, his poor debate performance, his insistance on focusing on Big Bird, the press can no longer cover for him. As Treand said the other day, Obama is no longer defying gravity. Did you see the LA Times story earlier - "Would Mitt really be that bad a President?" I think the press is slowly giving up.

Wow. Stephanie Cutter is one disgusting c*nt of a human being.

Which pretty much describes everyone in Obama's inner circle. Fortunately for us, the only ones with any political survival instincts, namely Rahm and the other Chief of Staff that Valerie Jarrett ran off, are nowhere nearby to help.

And they accused W of hubris. This cocksucker doesn't have anyone around him willing to shake some sense into him. And I really think that's going to be his undoing. You saw it in his reaction to the first debate: he thought he won.

This will be America's long-term gain, I just dread the short-term pain we might have to endure until he's gone.

153 Stef Cutter: Benghazi Only A Political Issue "Because of Romney and Ryan"

I believe this is true. If Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan had not been around, the Administration would have had no reason to keep the "running BS" going.
Once Mitt Romney made his statement about the tweets coming out of this Administration, out of the Cairo embassy, the Administration was fully invested in the "meme" that the stupid YouTube video was the culprit. Their reasoning ? Obvious. The MSM had dumped all over Romney for his statements. If they could extend the YouTube video to Benghazi, then Romney could make no statements without more bashing by the MSM.

Yeah. It was political, but the source isn't Romney.
It's the Obama Administration that made this political.

I don't mean it's pointy or jutting out there, but as faces go, there is a lot of face between her mouth and the chin.

She sure is drooling out that spin, and the chin provides a larger landing zone for the drool.

In a perfect world, or just one a tiny bit better than the one we have, yeah, she would lose her job. But this is Team Obama, and no matter the offense, everyone stays. Everyone.

Cutter, DWS, Rice, Holder, Sebelius, Geithner, Chu, shit, I'm wearing myself out. They all stay.

229 The real problem is that Cutter basically said the only reason you guys are covering this is because of Ryan and Romney. Now that may really be true, but it is not something you should really want to say to a waivering media. You are just giving them a reason to cover this more.

Posted by: SH at October 11, 2012 03:11 PM (gmeXX)

230 153 Stef Cutter: Benghazi Only A Political Issue "Because of Romney and Ryan"I believe this is true. If Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan had not been around, the Administration would have had no reason to keep the "running BS" going.Once Mitt Romney made his statement about the tweets coming out of this Administration, out of the Cairo embassy, the Administration was fully invested in the "meme" that the stupid YouTube video was the culprit. Their reasoning ? Obvious. The MSM had dumped all over Romney for his statements. If they could extend the YouTube video to Benghazi, then Romney could make no statements without more bashing by the MSM.Yeah. It was political, but the source isn't Romney. It's the Obama Administration that made this political.

Furthmore, Althouse was asking "why lie about the circumstances? It would have been found out by investigations?"
Why? Because the Administration has had the News Media acting as their lapdogs for four years and after witnessing the news pundits pounce on Romney for his comments regarding in Eqypt, they figured this was their green light to bullshit their way through this disaster. Even if there were investigations, they calculated that the MSM wouldn't cover it, you know, as a favor.
But something happened that they didn't anticipate. Some reporters actually started doing their job and asked some hard questions. Questions from the Republicans they could handle. Questions from the media? Not so much.

Benghazi was an out-of-control demonstration prompted by the YouTube

243 Stephanie Cunter is just playing the same card they took against Romney when he rightfully told the Egyptian embassy to stop apologizing to the savages for our freedom of speech. The MFM played along with that, successfully squelching the whole disaster in Egypt AND the terrorism in Libya at the start, talking about nothing but Romney, as if nothing had even happened in Cairo or Benghazi. That lasted until the full extent of what had happened in Benghazi began to dribble out through the palace guards of the MFM. Cunter just assumes that this traitorous administration can run the same play again, which is what Barky and his junta always do - as they don't have too many different plays in their book, anyway.

These people need to be jailed. You cannot have an administration doing this much damage to America without holding a goodly number of them to account. Barky must be prosecuted along with most of those at the top of his junta. Those in the MFM who have aided and abetted these traitors need to be shunned and relegated to lives on the street eating out of garbage cans.

Yes, Rush was all over this story today.

Panetta cradled her face in his hands and promised her personally to keep her apprised.

I wrote previously that Mrs. Pat Smith can find empathy from Pat Tillman's mother, abused by Rumsfeld "without a recollection" under oath in court, actually laughing and back slapping his co-defendants when they "won".

The revising media cover stories were horrible for the Tillmans, perhaps "worse" than this is for the Smiths since Pat killed by "friendly US fire" in arranged ambush from his own command and troop, as the court trial established. Six of one, half dozen of the other when one's CinC paints a target on you for assassination, whether by friendly US personnel fire or through absolute neglect leaving you vulnerable to "friendly" US trained "ally" Islamic security force fire.

Death of a loved one killed is always a bitter pill. God help the families suffering losses. What a shame that neither potus candidate will admit that nation building, whatever else it's called (Arab Spring), is futile at best.

Posted by: Adam at October 11, 2012 03:28 PM (/YJYi)

329 #237 I would NOT count Hillary out after this, at all. I am coming to the conclusion that this CF was actually Susan Rice's doing and not Hillary's. It makes total sense.

Picture this: Hillary fights to honor the request from Stevens and the Department Security Service. But overarching policy in Libya is at least partially being managed by Susan Rice and she has a veto over everything to do with our embassies in the Arab Spring countries. She is the Administration's "Africa expert" and certainly had more experience and knowledge of Libya than Hillary did. Rice was the architect of the policy to present a "friendlier face" in the Arab Spring countries, which meant no hardening of embassies and consulates, no huge guard towers bristling with heavily-armed Marines, etc. That was seen as a "peace gesture"to present to the Isalmists a new face of the USA that would not provoke them to violence. Hillary tells Rice and ultimately Obama that this is foolish and dangerous, and she won't be held responsible for any bad results from this policy.

Then the attack on Benghazi comes. Hillary is furious. She agrees only reluctantly to go along with the "video ruse" for the sake of Obama's reelection, but once the story starts falling apart she is out of Dodge. She refuses to take the fall for it and tells Susan Rice, "this was your idiot idea, YOU go on the Sunday talk shows and explain it." And Hillary has remained silent ever since.

I believe Susan Rice wanted to be Secretary of State and thought she was going to be. I think she and Hillary are huge rivals and do not like each other. I think Obama gave Rice a big portfolio beyond the UN because she is exactly the kind of intellectual/appeaser that he is.

Reminds me of Randy Shugart's father.

from Wiki......

Herbert Shughart, Randall Shughart's father, attended the Medal of Honor presentation ceremony at the White House, where he refused to shake hands with President Bill Clinton. He then proceeded to openly criticize the president, saying, "You are not fit to be president of the United States. The blame for my son's death rests with the White House and with you. You are not fit to command."

Another account of the incident from The Clinton Chronicles by Tom McKenney....

Following the May 23 presentation at the White House, the families of the two men were invited into the Oval Office for a private visit with Clinton. Inside the office, the father of Sergeant Shughart refused to shake Clinton's hand, then look him in the face and calmly told him that he was responsible for his son's death, that it was for no purpose, that he was not fit to be President, and not fit to be Commander in Chief.

Clinton was visibly shocked, amazed, and momentarily speechless. It is revealing that he was surprised that the man should feel that way. Clinton really doesn't think the way most people do, seeming to lack a sense of personal responsibility. After a brief, awkward silence, Clinton caught his breath. Becoming angry, he turned to the mother of the dead soldier and said,

"What's he jumping on me for? I didn't kill the kid! "

She might resign, but I highly doubt she'll turn on TFG. Obama's enough of a bastard that he'd find a way to tear her down after the fact if she so much as TRIED to turn on him. He's an evil little prick, and Hillary is too savvy to let whatever post-SecState career she might have be ruined by his malicious backstabbing.

In all seriousness, I've got to hand it to CBS. Their coverage of the JEF has been pathetically weak, but at least they've TRIED to look like actual reporters at various points during this administration. It's not much, but at least it's something.

380 If it was not for this site I would probably go bananas. I really should stop reading the news.

This mother's interview on Anderson Cooper---her only child dies--- and she gets no answers. His casket is used as a prop by these heartless people. Heartbreaking. I am so angry about this. Glad she and the whistle blowers came forward. This house of cards is falling down. I want these cards to burn and go down in flames with other scandals they cannot squirm out of as the MSM is waking up. Maybe that will be the October surprise: finally, a vetting and truth of their Dear Leader. I know, I know...but some are jumping ship. Drip. Drip.Drip.

And this Cutter dame had better stay the heck out of my way.

Y'all all know how they get a meme and they all stick to a talking point. The first few years of the Barky Reign of Terror, if anyone questioned him, it was "racism." This is apparently the season of "politicize." If Americans want answers and, uh, a four hour Congressional hearing, then it is "politicizing." If Romney or (tonight) Ryan mention Benghazi and the mistakes and incompetence by this administration who just want these bumps in the road to go away, it is "politicizing." BS! THIS IS NOT NORTH KOREA. Yes, dears, I am mad. I have been mad about these lies since September 12th. I honestly could spew forth a timeline and more facts, this very moment, than most of the State Dept. I could debate anyone on this. It has become almost an obsession, and it makes me so angry to see the lies continued and this Cutter person, this evil woman, perpetuate these lies and act like this is a freaking political issue!

I am praying for Paul Ryan. May people who don't know have the truth revealed tonight about both candidates and their running mates. May God protect Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan and their families.May people be able to clearly dicern who are the men of principle, values an character (hint: it is not the incumbutt).

"We are not simply facing an incompetent, dangerous, incumbent administration, we are facing evil at it's naked core; perpetuated in lies, with the unshrinking belief in the gullible and incurious American public who swallow their lies hook, line and sinker."
Proclamation of Dame Christy, Eleventh of October 2012

Romney/Ryan 2012

May God bless the United States even if we do not deserve it. Many prayers for Paul Ryan tonight.

381 I believe Susan Rice wanted to be Secretary of State and thought she was going to be. I think she and Hillary are huge rivals and do not like each other. I think Obama gave Rice a big portfolio beyond the UN because she is exactly the kind of intellectual/appeaser that he is.

---

Entirely believable.

Rice is Obama's person within State, which was obvious at the start when he put her as UN Ambassador and gave her some of the duties normally given to SecState, with Hillary parked there to keep her from becoming a challenge to him in 2012.

I don't like Hillary at all, but I know she's got a better sense of self-preservation than these idiots, one that should be fairly well developed after the kinds of shit she and Bill survived in Arkansas and in DC.

390 Congress is failing to impeach Obama on grounds of GROSS DERELICTION OF DUTY. Don't tell me the timing's wrong. Fuck Congress for their stoopid "Wait until after the election" cure-all response that always applied after the NEXT election but never this one.

Two Points to Make v. Obama's never ending wtf revisions

Bush's departing executive order granting the Sec./Treasury complete autonomy left the barn door open. Obama usurped tax funds allocated for our US personnel
abroad for his own family's pleasuring these past four years on vacation, "Present" while AWOL, too inebriated to take any calls during the lead-in of weeks prior, during the attack itself, and thereafter.

Also, when NATO "delivered" Libya to the known al Qaeda "rebels" it was published in the news. Yet everyone in government is afraid to say "boo" as if the US/NATO had no such alliance since Obama's mantra is that al Qaeda is dead. Shit, how many times have we heard that since 2001, too many to count.

392 313 How can she criticize Mitt for not having a plan?

Of course Romney would allocate proper security given full intelligence briefing. But there's so much more to "having a plan" -- and Mitt has no intention of bringing our troops home from Afghanistan.

Furthermore, Mitt is WRONG on Syria. Get/read the Oct.2012 Air Force Magazine. NATO in Washington DC August address spelled out why Syria is NOT Libya, and that not only have our EU NATO allies depleted their arms in conducting Libya's "revolution" in alliance with al Qaeda, the US Military had to divert what was allocated for Iraq and Afghanistan in order to fill in the gap, which leaves all our personnel in the Middle East that much more vulnerable during this volatile era as supplies are not where they were designed prior to Obama's al Qaeda fiasco of an alliance that "sent them on their heels".

Recall that Rumsfeld's folly was storming full steam ahead into Baghdad without providing our Shock and Awe military personnel security and supplies along the route. HILLARY/Obama has done that and more, spreading the US and NATO far too thin in the Middle East already. Whatever "plan" Romney's announced to attack Syria has been summarily denounced by NATO and by those from the Reagan administration who've stayed apprised on the latest events.

Bush's nation building is a horrible thing to prolong and proliferate via Romney. So far, Romney's "plan" equates to more Bush nation building aka more futile (never ending, nothing will change no matter how long we stay) wars that only benefit the global corporatist profiteers.

The NRA did not expose Fast and Furious.

Thank an investigative freelance journalist with integrity for that. She began her investigation as a liberal in order to aid federal prosecution against those merchants who legally sell guns, sports stores, specifically Dick's. The US Federal Government had a gag order preventing them from a fair defense. But during the course of the trial, the beans were spilled, thanks to that one lady. And she had the integrity to go with the story though her initial agenda was proven absolutely without merit.

397 56 Barky doesn't like the word....'Terrorism'. He thinks it's retribution...for our sins of Colonialism. People on Fox today, have been bringing up the Fort Hood massacre. Which is good. They are pointing to it, as another example of how the Barky Regime has tried to avoid using the word 'terrorism'. But it is starting to bite them in the ass...calling the Fort Hood massacre, 'workplace violence'. Apparently, the victims are not entitled to the same benefits, as they would be, if it were classified as a 'terrorist act'.

At least they haven't brought back the term "man-caused disaters." When I heard one of the administration bigwigs (Napolitano, maybe?) use this term in place of "terrorism" non-jokingly, that's when I knew we didn't just have government run by liberal college students; we had government run by hard core leftist social science grad students.

I was doing a very fine job of ignoring the issue entirely and if you hadn't made a big deal about it there wouldn't have been a problem. Clearly this hullaballoo about what happened in your mouth is entirely YOUR fault.

This should be Romney/Ryan/GOP/right's response:

"So you're saying that if Romney had not brought attention to the murders in Libya, that the Obama administration would have continued to suppress, obfuscate and lie about it? Thank God then for his courage to speak out. The families of those who were brutally murdered and the American people need a leader they can trust to tell them the truth and it's clear that leader is Mitt Romney."

Sean Smith was a friend of mine. He was a good guy and a great dad, a San Diego Chargers fan, a true computer guy, IT professional who learned his trade in the Air Force, online gamer, hellI could list his great personal and work qualities all day. It has bothered me for a month now how Hannity always refers tothe slainin Benghazi as "the ambassador and two navy seals"and never mentioning Sean, because I want my friend to be remembered for being a hero and doing his job, trying to destroy classified documents in the vault at the consulate while a battle raged around him, and he succumbed to smoke inhalation because of his dedication to duty.
But that aggravation is nothing compared to my anger at this administration for demeaning his death,with both hillary and obamaLYINGwith words about why he died, while hisbodywaslying inreality rightnext to them.Theytried to pretendthathe diedas part of some political protest over a video, solely for political reasons, when they knew fromDSSvideo footage that there was no protest, just a sudden and brutal attack. And then they have the nerve toallege that Republicans are making this a political issue? When they are desperately covering up their mistakes and trying to pretend that our Middle East policy is a success, ignoring present andfuture threatsjust long enough towin the election? It would be unbelievable, if you hadn't actually lived through the last 4 years.
Sorry for the rant, I am usually much more of a lurker than a commenter, but I just felt like I had to comment on this thread.
