Kristen Powers: Why Did Obama Send Out Someone To Give a "Presentation" On Benghazi Who He Now Says Knew Nothing At All About Benghazi?

I asked this earlier, but Kirsten Powers asks it here, and she's prettier.

She also notes Obama's "paternalistic" performance, pretending to be the Big Man come to rescue a Damsel In Distress from Villains. This account overlooks the fact that Obama sent out Rice to lie -- the Big Hero put the Damsel in Distress for his own selfish purposes-- and that Kelly Ayotte, who's also a woman, is one of those asking questions about Rice.

Finally, she notes the central dishonesty of this pose: Of course we'd like to ask Obama questions, and "come after" him. But he won't answer questions. Instead, he dangles us Rice.

Lindsey Graham, by the way, had a strong retort:

"Mr. President, don’t think for one minute I don’t hold you ultimately responsible for Benghazi.”

Obama's quite an odious demagogue, isn't he?

Krauthammer also just ridiculed Obama's "chivalrous" posturing on the Bret Baier show.
