If This is True, The Lies Have Won

Monday afternoon on cable news, retired general Anthony Tata said that an unidentified official from the office of the Director of National Intelligence to the Centcom intelligence staff to omit from their reports anything that made ISIS and al Qaeda look like they were gaining strength.

Here's how Fox News reported it:

Tata revealed that a source verified to him that he was directed by an individual from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, who conducts the president’s daily briefing, to stop producing "products of record" that did not fit the administration's narrative of a defeated Al Qaeda and a non-threatening enemy in ISIS.

Tata said that the president’s briefer told this individual to call him on secure line if he had any intelligence that portrayed ISIS in a stronger light than what the president had characterized to the public, which would not leave a paper trail.

He said that this distortion of intelligence on ISIS essentially led to the U.S. ignoring the growing threat and giving the terror group two years to take root.

We already knew that Centcom was producing rosy intelligence that distorted the reality in the field.  This piece says that the phony intelligence was requested from the highest levels.  Obama always seems to live in a dream world where the truth does not matter, only the politics.  Now we have confirmation that Obama's lies won the day and the intelligence services just went along with the delusion.

It's a bad day for America.  It's even worse when you realize that what Obama did here is something that Hillary Clinton does over and over again.  She lies so often that she has no idea of what the actual reality of the situation is.
