"Even if the State Department email had been accurate, conservatives
pounced on it eagerly without underlying corroboration, thereby providing a
pretty good example of how complicated intelligence analysis can be and why
it's a bad idea to simply jump on a piece of information that fits your
preconceived biases. The email was just one piece of information gathered
in the aftermath of the attack. While the White House's initial explanation
that the attack had begun as a protest turned out to be wrong, the email
itself doesn't bear on two of the major remaining questions: what role the
video played and whether the attack was planned or spontaneous.

You'd think that this would be obvious, but in the future it's a good idea
to remember that just because someone posts something on Facebook, that
doesn't necessarily mean it's true. Even better: Just because someone said
someone posted something on Facebook doesn't mean it's true. Even if you
really, really want it to be."


Simply can't understand why this election race is so close with tomfoolery
like this forming the basis of the GOP campaign.
