Disgusting that they did this to a sitting President - They need to be outed NOW!!!!

Romney was also getting security briefings at the time, WTF!

Looks Like Bob Woodward inadvertently let the cat-out-of-the-bag on the Hannity show regarding The Romney Campaigns connection to The Benghazi smear on Obama.... Listen to the video, Woodward met with a Government informant brought to him by 'people close to Romney':

Bob Woodward Says Romney Allies Brought Benghazi Source To His Home

WASHINGTON -- Allies of defeated presidential candidate Mitt Romney approached reporters with a government insider on the Benghazi, Libya, U.S. embassy attack in the final weeks of the campaign, Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist Bob Woodward told Fox News Wednesday night.

Woodward, appearing on the Sean Hannity show to discuss media coverage of Obama administration scandals, used the anecdote as an example of how he had tried to look into the story behind the Sept. 11 attack on an U.S. diplomatic outpost in Benghazi that left four Americans dead, including the ambassador.

"Some people close to Romney, a couple of weeks ago, just showed up at my house and said that they had somebody in a very sensitive position in the U.S. government who was willing to meet with me and give me information about Benghazi," Woodward told Hannity.

After the source failed to show at several meetings, Woodward said he finally met the person and was disappointed by the quality of the information.

"He finally showed up and he didn't have anything where he had any firsthand knowledge," Woodward said. "He said you ought to talk to his person and that person and so forth."

It was not clear from Woodward's remarks whether the people shopping the source in the first place were part of Romney's campaign, or were operating with the candidate's knowledge.

Woodward declined to elaborate when asked later by The Huffington Post. A Romney spokesman didn't immediately respond.

1. updated headline, sorry

[speedoo]

2. I hate Romney and all his people.

Romney politicized Benghazi right from the beginning. I'm still curious what made him stop.

4. He was getting presidential candidate security briefings.

That's what made him stop. He realized if he kept it up he would be creating additional issues and could potentially compromise operations which would more than likely come out prior to the election. Furthermore revealing what he knew could result in criminal prosecution and I am 100% certain his attorneys informed him of those consequences prior to him ever signing the agreement to receive the briefings. In essence he was given amongst the highest level of security clearance in the land and was as accountable as any other civilian with that level of clearance.

7. The silver lining....

Obama can be too nice. So with this info hopefully he won't be calling Romney for a sit down any time soon. Or consider appointing him to any position. Unless he wants to make him Secretary of Romnesia!

8. Why did Bob Woodward wait until AFTER the election to divulge this?

Silly me for thinking a Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist would have seen the real story here.

9. I don't think that he meant to actually let it out
