ORIGINAL: Owner59 Reporting what the intelligence community told her is a little different from making shit up and claiming falsely, that it was real intel....ie. lying. If you don`t understand the difference......there`s not much more to be said.... Powell was using info from 7 different countries intelligence. Rice was spouting info that the CIA and many others had already debunked ...... that is a lie. The CIA & State Dept counterterrorism guys did know that it was probably an Al Qaeda related attack - which they chose to keep secret because it involved classified information. Unless you're asserting that Susan Rice is a mind reader, I don't see how you can blame her for not knowing that the CIA knew that what they told her was probably false. Colin Powell, on the other hand... I honestly like the guy, and would like to believe that he was in the same situation, and didn't know that the intel that he was providing was transparently false. My gut tells me that he probably knew (I mean, it was so obvious), but did what the President told him all the same. I imagine a retired general and life-long military man would have a hard time telling the Commander-in-Chief to fuck off. An attack by Al Qaeda is classified info, but an attack on the same Embassy by pissed off Muslims is not? Both are pissed off Muslims! One just sounded better for Obama's re-election. Are you gullible enough to believe that Rice, being groomed for the job of Secretary of State had not been vetted for a top secret clearance? Rice knew exactly what really happened and went on FIVE outlets to bullshit us! Also, you guys must have political filters on your TV's because my TV clearly showed Hillary Clinton and John Kerry saying me must stop Iraq from getting WMDs. Hillary, John, the Russians, Isreal and England, and Sadaam himself said he had WMDs. How in the hell did he gas the Kurds with serin gas he DIDN'T have? An Iraq General said they shipped the serin to Syria. Now France and England have confirmed Syria used serin gas. Wonder where they got it. The Syrian Walmart doesn't carry it.
