Where are the kerning experts now?

Oh my:
In what Washington Post's Karen DeYoung describes as an "explosive report" on CBS' 60 Minutes on Sunday, the venerable TV news magazine offered "a harrowing account of the extremist attack that killed four Americans" at the U.S. diplomatic outpost in Benghazi, Libya last year. 
Naturally, Fox "News" and others on the Right --- such as Sen. Lindsey Graham who promised on Wednesday to block all of President Obama's nominees following the report --- have been trumpeting it all week. 
In the report, CBS' Lara Logan interviews a man psuedonomously identified as "Morgan Jones", a British supervisor of security guards protecting the mission. He tells Logan that, as the attack that night went on and four U.S. officials were ultimately killed, he scaled the compound's 12-foot wall, took out an al-Qaeda terrorist "with the butt end of a rifle" and eventually was at the hospital to witness the lifeless corpse of U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens. 
But, as reported by DeYoung at WaPo today, that story by "Jones", as offered on 60 Minutes, appears to be completely untrue. That "harrowing account" by "Jones," whose real name is reportedly Dylan Davies, is completely at odds, according to the Post, with the written account that he "provided to his employer three days after the attack" when he said he was nowhere near the diplomatic compound on the night of the deadly tragedy...
DeYoung reports that "State Department and GOP congressional aides confirmed that Davies's Sept. 14, 2012, report, a copy of which was obtained by The Washington Post, was included among tens of thousands of documents turned over to lawmakers by the State Department this year."
Keep in mind that Benghazi!™ is a patented right wing smear developed to torture Hillary Clinton for the rest of her life. (They don't need it for Barack Obama because: Kenyan usurper.)

Huckleberry Graham's involvement should be no surprise.  He was a House Impeachment manager back in the day.  His main contribution  to the case was to point out that Monica had an orgasm. Seriously.
