(2,730 posts)article carefully. The whitehouse only edited one word. They are either using Fienstein as a cover or she diesn't understand what the Republicans are doing. Or she doesn't want to be blunt with them. I watched her facial expressions today and she seemed taken aback at some of the outrageous allegations Rogers was making. He also claimed Eric Holder might had told the President about Petraeus.
To be frank, it appears Petraeus's own CIA did the change because they cleared it. They were the ones that had to edit out what they believed to be sensitive information. The reason I know this, is because I'm taking some Forensic Science classes. This is nothing but bull. Even if the information was wrong at the beginning it is Bull. I can see right through this Dog and Pony show. Why don't the CIA just admit they messed up? Stephens had to have known that area was dangerous. I don't even believe the reason the CIA claims Stephens went in that area. It is well known Stephens took risks on his own. He was one of the people meeting secretly with the militias to overthrow Ghaddaffi. Now I'm not stupid.
The only reason the CIA could have had an annex there, is probably they were secretly doing a mission in that area of Libya. And the polticization of it probably blew the cover. I'm just putting two and two together here. And despite the claims, there is some evidence the CIA had a fire fight with the assailants. Probably Stephens just got caught up in it. So they have to explain the death of the Top Ambassador in libya. Now all this is just an educated guess. I still want to know how a CNN correspondant gained access to the consulate and took evidence from the site. The only way that could have happened is through the CIA. She should have never had access to a crime scene where there is an ongoing investigation much less retrieve that diary. Why isn't that tampering?
