Republican Duplicity

I must complement my former professional Alma Mater for their professional journalism.

CBS News reported last week that republicans misquoted or significantly embellished the emails Susan Rice used on the Sunday morning talk shows following the Benghazi, Libya consulate attack.

GOP lawmakers continue to insist that the Obama administration engaged in a cover-up to insure the President’s chances of re-election.

I’ll get into a specific in a moment, but the arrogance of the alteration should offend all American citizens who value truth and fair play. It is blatantly obvious that some members of the Republican Party will lie and cheat in order to discredit anything connected to President Obama. No wonder they have a disconnect to a majority of the American people.

The GOP is so intent on winning the presidency in 2016 that they will do anything to create an anti Obama climate.

One of the leaked documents shows how the GOP added new language to include a specific reference to al-Qaeda.

The actual email read:

“The penultimate point could be abused by members to beat the State Department for not paying attention to Agency warnings.”

The GOP altered email read:

“The penultimate point is a paragraph talking about all the previous warnings provided by the Agency (CIA) about al-Qaeda’s presence and activities of al-Qaeda.”

Be the way, CBS New Major Garrett confirmed that it was a GOP source that leaked the altered emails.

This is just one example, along with the others that should undermine the weak cover-up allegations from a GOP Congress.

Shame on the Congressional GOP and congratulations to CBS News.
