    Sure, Obama, it's just another fake scandal.
    BTW, when are you going to do the right thing and resign like Nixon did to spare the country the agony of your criminal presidency?

    CNN’s Jake Tapper broadcast a report on Thursday in which the network’s reporters alleged that the Central Intelligence Agency is pressuring agents who were on the ground on the night of the deadly 2012 attack on an American consulate in Benghazi from talking to Congress or the media. The agents in question have been subjected, according to the report, to an inordinate amount of polygraph testing in order to ensure that they are not talking about the Benghazi attacks.

    “Sources now tell CNN dozens of CIA agents were on the ground that night,” Tapper revealed about the night of the attack, “and the CIA is going to great lengths to make sure whatever they were doing and what happened that night remains a secret.”

    “Since January, some CIA operatives involved in the agency’s missions in Libya have been subjected to frequent, even monthly, polygraph examinations,” CNN reporter Drew Griffin revealed. “The goal of the questioning, according to sources, is to find out if anyone is talking to the media or Congress.”

    “It’s being described as pure intimidation with the threat that any unauthorized CIA employees who leaks information could face the end of his or her career,” Griffin continued.

    In one communication obtained by CNN, a CIA source revealed that the threats are having the effect of preventing agents with knowledge of what happened on the night of the attack from coming forward.

    “You don’t jeopardize yourself, you jeopardize your family as well,” an anonymous source wrote. “You have no idea the amount of pressure being brought to bear on anyone with knowledge of this operation,” another source added.

    Jake Tapper is one of the few real journalists left, he is one of the only guys i can honestly say has zero bias.

    He does uncover some good stories. The article says he is a CNN journalist. I've always seen him reporting for ABC. I wonder if he jumped ship.

    It's impressive seeing CNN put together that story. It SHOULD, however, be a much longer, and constant story. None the less, good to see.

    And btw, CIA operatives are polygraphed just like the former operative said: around every 3-4 years. That's been SOP for decades. But once a month to keep the truth from coming out?:eek:
    looks like our criminal in chief really does have quite a bit in common with Adolph Hitler!
    1. He's a full blown communist.
    2. He's a muslim, and buddies with terrorists.
    3. He hates the white race, and if he had his way, would exterminate it.
    God bless America.:(
     
  7. Let's give Glenn Beck some credit. He came out with a story right after the attack saying there was an arms smuggling operation going on in Benghazi and that was the cause of the attack. People mocked him, but he was right apparently.

    Congress could easily get to the bottom of this, but for some reason no one seems to want to. The likely reason is pressure from the war mongers like McCain, who have wanted us involved in syria from the getgo.

    What happened here was the administration got way too far out over its skis. It was invovled in running weapons to terrorist groups. Some of the weapons ended up in Mali and other trouble spots. They had no authority to be involved in syria either. so they want to keep it under wraps.

    When the attack happened, the administration faced a choice. they could send in a rescue force, but that risked opening up a can of worms as to what they were doing there in the first place. Or they could hang those ops out to dry and hopefully it would get swept under the rug by the obama/hillary media as one of those things. They underestimated the publicity it would garner however, and even though they somehow intimidated Romney into dropping it, the Amercian public was revolted by the idea of a couple of brave Seals being left to fight off an al qaeda attack with no help.

    I think you've got the story exactly right, AAA. This story needs to be told by those who where there before Congress.

    And I hope someday we find out what they had over chief Justice Roberts and Romney and how they got it.

    Those were two amazing oddities that led to Obama's re election.

    Someone probably has dirt on them, and most of them are dirty. Seems to be a character trait of many(most) politicians. Remember filegate from the Clinton days? Clinton was child's play compared to this admin. They are tyrants in the making.
