Krauthammer OBLITERATES State Dept ‘transparency’ excuses with this BRILLIANT comparison

On Special Report tonight, Charles Krauthammer torched the excuses made by the State Department over editing out questions/answers regarding negotiations with Iran back in 2013. See, the negotiations were happening, but the administration was lying about it. So they covered it up and Krauthammer hammers them for it.

Watch:

Here’s a partial transcript:

“Look, this incident is so appalling, it’s almost comical. In the old Soviet Union, if Stalin decided he didn’t like you, you disappeared. But then you were airbrushed out of all the pictures, the photographs that had been taken in the past and this was a source of a lot of amusement in the West,” Krauthammer said. “The old joke was, ‘Everywhere else it’s impossible to predict the future, in the Soviet Union, impossible to predict the past.’ This is now happening in the U.S.

“Remember, they tried to pass it off as a glitch. So that was either an obvious lie or sort of a lame attempt at a cover-up. And I love what Kirby had to say today, the State Department spokesman. He said this was not and is not in keeping with State Department’s commitment to transparency. Well, no kidding Sherlock! When you actually lie about deleting history, that is not transparent.
