It's not my job to hold your hand and tell you what a major media outlet is. Be a big girl and find it yourself. It was pathetically easy.
He won't be able to.
I have few facts, heard plenty of things. It appears to me, they were trying to blackmail Petraeus to stay quiet, and it backfired. Why else was this known affair so quiet for so long?

How many do you have?
I don't have the tin foil hats you and CC have donned.
Mine is made of Hastalloy. Not tin. Why can't you get your facts strait?
Why can't you spell?
But you roll with your Hastalloy foil hat.![]()
this thread delivers.
It's should be surprising that our newly minuted conspiracy theorist is unable to find a story that was produced by one of the most prominent news sources in the world and prominently linked in one of the more popular internet portals in the world.
But then again, he doesn't believe the news source is a major one.
there's only one major news source, and they got cowboy workin overtime.
Maybe you should look up the differences in properties between tin and hastalloy.
So Benghazi means Osama wasn't killed, and that al Qaeda is stronger than ever?
I'm pretty sure "I have a real life!" smack automatically disqualifies you from winning an argument.
Fox + Repugs spend the next 4 years lying about Rice/Obama/Petraeus conspiracy to lie about Benghazi, including impeaching Obama, and generally repeating the Clinton harassment the WH with endless bull and non-stop slander and obstructionism.
And assholes here, where's Yoni when we really need proof of a conspiracy?, suckered by Fox + Repug, will run with the conspiracy.
this whole Benghazi ridiculousness reminds me of Sam Kinison..
The C.I.A. and other intelligence agencies prepared unclassified talking points on the attack for members of Congress, and in them the references to Qaeda affiliates were changed to the less specific “extremists” to avoid revealing to insurgents that American intelligence agencies were eavesdropping on their electronic communications.http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/17/wo...-hearings.htmlDavid H. Petraeus, the former director of the Central Intelligence Agency, told lawmakers on Friday that classified intelligence reports revealed that the deadly assault on the American diplomatic mission in Libya was a terrorist attack, but that the administration refrained from saying it suspected that the perpetrators of the attack were Al Qaeda affiliates and sympathizers to avoid tipping off the groups.
Mr. Petraeus, who resigned last week after admitting to an extramarital affair, said the names of groups suspected in the attack — including Al Qaeda’s franchise in North Africa and a local Libyan group, Ansar al-Shariah — were removed from the public explanation of the attack immediately after the assault to avoiding alerting the militants that American intelligence and law enforcement agencies were tracking them, lawmakers said.
Dan.
Anyone with a gram on intelligence already knows the administration lied, and waited till after the election to boot Petraeas out.
Petreaus would say that himself if he was as angry as all you conspiracy nuts say he is.
But, but, now Petraeus won't testify....
Why do people even expect that the government should tell us all they suspect at the time. Even the local police know not to do that.
Petraeus did testify, WC. Do you dislike what he said?
A bunch of Republicans are the ones who knew about his affair for some time. Why did they not come forward with the information? Oh yeah, there was talk among Republicans of running Petraeus in 2016.
@ "not wanting to tip them off that we knew they did it"
THE GROUP PUBLICLY CLAIMED CREDIT FOR THE ATTACK.
They expected us to know they did it because they TOLD us.
i can'y believe y'all are falling for that excuse.
I knew he was going to testify. We don't know everything he said. It was behind closed doors. It's still obvious Rice lied with what was released. They edit out sensitive information and Rice makes the cause to be other than what it is. No way she could have thought she wasn't making it up.
I never denied the administration's spin was exactly that and self serving to boot, but you went over to full-throated partisan tin hattery. There was no conspiracy, just run of the mill SNAFU.
