Benghazi Talking Points

As you know, the Republicans have been running a campaign of quackery centered on the first talking points used by the administration in the confused hours immediately after the terrorist murders in Benghazi. The Republicans keep asking questions that have already been answered. This is, of course, a waste of time, but we might want to consider the people who wrote the talking points, particularly the man who signed off on them, the editor-in-chief. He's a well-known retired general named David Howell Petraeus.
