The extent to which members of the Obama administration sought to perpetuate the false “spontaneous demonstration prompted by a disgusting video” narrative reveals their disdain for the American people.

Almost immediately after the U.S. consulate in Benghazi came under attack, it was known within the highest levels of the administration that it was a terrorist attack by al-Qaeda-linked elements. The administration, however, wasted no time in blaming it on the video and crafted an elaborate charade to convince everyone that the Obama administration itself really believed the false narrative.

And on it goes.

In the meantime, the clock winds down toward the election. The producer of the video is arrested and still languishes in jail. The terrorists responsible for the deaths of four Americans are free — one of them casually sipping smoothies at an open-air cafe, telling everyone within earshot that he’s got no reason to hide.

After all, why hide from somebody who plays charades?
