Here is the Weekly Standard article he wrote containing the fake email as fact:

Mister Cheney, who just yesterday (or today?), coincidentally said Benghazi was the worst thing he had ever seen in government, maybe has some 'splainin' to do.

3. sounds like cheney

Carney on Tuesday accused Republicans of editing the emails in order to to serve a political agenda.

"I think the entire e-mail, the report I read showed the entire e-mail, and what it showed is Republicans who were leaking these press, these e-mails that had been shared with Congress didn't just do that, they decided to fabricate portions of an e-mail and make up portions of an e-mail in order to fit a political narrative," he said at a White House press conference

17. Article back up, can't find e-mail

I hope someone captured the original article. I got the page not found, tried a few minutes later and skimmed article for e-mail and didn't find it.

7. EVERY SINGLE MEDIA OUTLET that ran with the ginned up emails

should be featuring corrections today. They should be teasing the correction at each commercial break.

If any of them actually DO that, let me know.

8. This should be jail time

Heavily fined, and 20 years minimum.

9. We're seeing the same news bleed we saw during the Clinton years.

Only those leaks began with Drudge.

15. Who knew!? BWAHAHAHA

Hooda thunk anyone associated with Darth Cheney was such a weasel?

16. Hayes made up "facts" about Iraq/9-11 terrorist in his pro Iraq war propaganda push.

He owes 4000 dead and 30000 wounded his life's salary.

[Iliyah]

18. And now ABC Karl and ABC are

lying about their lie. Karl had written that he reviewed the WH e-mails. Now Karl is saying that he never reviewed the e-mails and solely wrote on the notes that were taken from the e-mails by I guess a GOPer staffer. Issa needs to be investigated as well as Fake news and ABC.
