KEYSTONE KOMRADES: Obama aides contradict each other on Sunday talk shows as the Benghazi-gate cover-up unravels

Writing at American Power, Donald Douglas observes that White House adviser David Plouffe blatantly lied while discussing Benghazi-gate on Meet the Press:

Plouffe argued that Ambassador Susan Rice was relying on extant intelligence reports in her Sunday comments on September 16th, discussed here.

He's lying.

[At The Daily Beast,] Eli Lake reported that intelligence agencies knew it was a terrorist attack within hours, "U.S. Officials Knew Libya Attacks Were Work of Al Qaeda Affiliates." And see Twitchy, "David Plouffe: ‘Libya wasn’t intel failure,’ canoodling after terrorist attack is hunky-dory; Media enables lies"... The video is here.

So Plouffe was flat-out lying (quite the shocker, I know). But in what is becoming a pattern for this administration, the various handlers can't keep their cover-up stories straight.

On CNN, Obama adviser David Axelrod plainly contradicted Plouffe and left Ambassador Susan Rice out to dry.

...when the host asked a similar question, Axelrod said, “Well, first of all, Candy, as you know, the President called it an act of terror the day after it happened, But when you're the responsible party, when you're the administration and you have a responsibility to act on what you know and what the intelligence community believes. This is being thoroughly investigated because we need to bring to justice.”

To put it bluntly, President Obama's key advisers are contradicting each other as the Benghazi-gate cover-up continues to unravel and even antique media is forced to cover it. This story, according to veteran observers familiar with both, is bigger than Watergate. An Ambassador and three other American diplomatic personnel are dead.

And every story the administration has told the American people about the terror attack was false.
