What difference do the slaughter of four Americans and the Obama Administration’s lies make? According to lefty Fox News contributor Sally Kohn, a negligible one, at best.
Kohn evidently slept through yesterday’s hearing — or perhaps, like the president, she doesn’t watch afternoon TV — because today, she asked Katie Pavlich and Dana Loesch to explain to her what exactly was covered up in the aftermath of Benghazi. Pavlich and Loesch were more than willing to fulfill Kohn’s request:
Covered up: Stevens was taken to the hospital to get "help" @sallykohn
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
@KatiePavlich explain that last one to me?!
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
@KatiePavlich Also, do you think GOP-backed cuts to embassy security spending should be factor?! Or no…
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
@sallykohn Surely you heard the testimonies yesterday. @KatiePavlich
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
@DLoesch @KatiePavlich yes, of course! but trying to ascertain worst-possible conclusion you think could be eventually drawn/proven?
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
Is she for real?
@sallykohn I don’t like dealing in hypotheticals. Want more answers. We wouldn’t be in dark if State Dept. was forthcoming. @KatiePavlich
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Bingo.
More important questions left unanswered:
@sallykohn Why were stand down orders given? How did a terror attack turn into blaming a video? Why was security reduced? Why Hicks demoted?
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
But not important enough for Sally:
.@DLoesch @KatiePavlich appreciate responses. seriously. trying 2 understand how folks could see a mountain when seems to me barely molehill
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
Move over, bumps in the road; four dead Americans are now “barely a molehill.”
Pavlich and Loesch rightly took Kohn to the woodshed for her disgusting remark:
Yeah, dead Americans are a "molehill", especially when the President and Sec. of State lie about it @sallykohn @DLoesch
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
@sallykohn Don’t think I’d call the deaths of Americans by an attack on sovereign soil & State Dept lies a “molehill.” @KatiePavlich
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Neither would we — or anyone with a sense of morality. But Kohn continued to minimize the attacks:
for record, think there's plenty about O's foreign policy to legit critique (e.g., drones) but not #benghazi @KatiePavlich @DLoesch
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
You cannot be serious @sallykohn @DLoesch
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
@KatiePavlich @DLoesch not minimizing the dead Americans! minimizing the accusations of lying.
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
Really? Could’ve fooled us.
@sallykohn Minimizing lying about dead Americans? Testimonies pointing that direction. @KatiePavlich
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Kohn asked for answers, but the truth was far too inconvenient. When backed into a corner, it’s much easier to lash out at conservatives:
Conservatives are really giving Occam's razor a run for its money with #Benghazi
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
How dare conservatives — or anyone, for that matter — question the motivations and conduct of an administration that’s repeatedly demonstrated a reckless disregard for the law and human life?!
@sallykohn No, the testimony lends itself to Occam’s razor. Why is this a conservative thing?
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
@sallykohn You talk about the “politicization of the issue” yet keep making this a “conservative” thing. You don’t want answers?
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
She just doesn’t want the right answers.
.@sallykohn calls Benghazi a "molehill." Not surprised, she said "NO ONE GIVES A SH*T ABOUT FAST AND FURIOUS" http://t.co/lIHCE845Hv
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
@KatiePavlich oh katie…. come on! you know in both cases, i mean the politicization of the issue, NOT the brave folks who died. be fair.
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
Pavlich was fair. The truth just hurts too much for Kohn.
Just in case @sallykohn needs a reminder about all of the lies from Obama, Clinton, Carney and Rice —> http://t.co/qpTtgU8PIw
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
What else isn't a "molehill" @sallykohn? Clinton standing in front of the flag draped coffins of dead Americans & lying about a video
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
Yep. Hillary did that.
Just like Rep. Maloney, @sallykohn seems more outraged over Benghazi questioning than the murders of American diplomats.
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
They lied about the dead Americans! @sallykohn @DLoesch
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods are all "bumps in the road" and "molehills" according the Left #benghazi
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
@DLoesch honestly, if i thought evidence was there, i would be right next to you protesting. but seems like witch hunt, conspiracy mongering
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
It’s all witch hunts and molehills.
@sallykohn Asking questions is “protesting” and a “witch hunt?” That escalated quickly.
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
I’m surprised that @sallykohn is opposed to investigating a terror attack on sovereign soil. Why is it a “witch hunt?”
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Asking why security requests were repeatedly denied, why talking points were changed is a “witch hunt?” Why? @sallykohn
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
There is a guy still sitting in jail because Obama and Hillary blamed a YouTube video. His record was conveniently sealed. #Benghazi
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Nakoula Basseley Nakoula remains in prison. But to Kohn, that’s just a mistake — one of many made “amidst confusion and danger”:
I'm done arguing about #Benghazi. Amidst confusion and danger, mistakes made – not lies. And were corrected! No hint of evidence otherwise.
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
Unbelievable.
Kohn may have wanted it to end there, but Loesch and Pavlich refused to let her off the hook:
@sallykohn Mistake of repeatedly denying security and then lying about doing so wasn’t a lie? OK.
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
. @sallykohn says she isn't minimizing the murders of Americans yet calls Benghazi a "molehill" #benghazi
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
Again, here is a compilation of lies you say don't exist surrounding #benghazi @sallykohn http://t.co/t85PUdft3F
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) May 9, 2013
@DLoesch well you've already jumped to "lies" without proof so…
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) May 9, 2013
@sallykohn Lies without proof? Oh, so a guy sitting in jail over a video is the cause of the #Benghazi terror attack?
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
@sallykohn So Lamb and Boswell didn’t debunk assertions and quit over false narratives? #Benghazi
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Trying to figure out why progressives are OK with a guy sitting in jail because Obama and Hillary falsely blamed a terror attack on him.
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Irony: progressives angry over Gitmo soldiers totally OK with guy being held for a video admin says caused terror attack. #Benghazi
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Don't you think the families of those lost in #Benghazi have a right to know the truth? http://t.co/2K7P4xCyj2
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Where is the left's protest for the citizen sitting in a jail cell because the admin sent the law after him in the dead of night? #Benghazi
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
That’s just not important. The Left’s can only muster outrage toward those who are pursuing the truth about what happened in Benghazi.
Heaven forbid we ask questions in this age of information and enlightenment. #Benghazi
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 9, 2013
Heaven forbid.
