We knew of course that this had occurred, but the documents catch them dead to rights, and names the top Obama officials involved, including Victoria Nuland and National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes.

Via The Weekly Standard:

Even as the White House strove last week to move beyond questions about the Benghazi attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2012, fresh evidence emerged that senior Obama administration officials knowingly misled the country about what had happened in the days following the assaults. The Weekly Standard has obtained a timeline briefed by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence detailing the heavy substantive revisions made to the CIA’s talking points, just six weeks before the 2012 presidential election, and additional information about why the changes were made and by whom.

As intelligence officials pieced together the puzzle of events unfolding in Libya, they concluded even before the assaults had ended that al Qaeda-linked terrorists were involved.

We are in trouble as a people. when we accept this carnal behavior from our leaders.

The main difference between then and now is that Congress doesn't do their job anymore. Watergate had public hearings. Today we get nothing. All the pols on both sides of the aisle are only interested in manufacturing talking points instead of genuinely rooting out and punishing corruption.
