The U.S. State Department is now denying that it ever thought there had been a demonstration about the anti-Islamic movie prior to the attack on our Benghazi consulate that killed four Americans.
What kind of game is being played here?
The first thing that came to my mind is that Hillary Clinton is yanking the rug out from under Obama – first he blames the Benghazi attacks on that stupid movie for weeks, then she says her department knew better all along. Is this actually true? If so, then some State Department folks never got the word, because they initially backed Obama's take. Or is Hillary seeing the political problem, and distancing herself from it in order to better position herself for a 2016 run? Or is she just being spiteful?
I don't know any of these things, of course – just all random thoughts that came to mind after reading this extraordinary statement.
Of course, another perfectly reasonable interpretation is that our government is run by a bunch of incompetent clowns. But we know better than that, don't we? Don't we???
