The Senate investigation found numerous cases of gross exaggeration and repeated public statements by top Administration officials that simply weren't based on accepted intelligence. Isn't that wrong? Further the Pentagon's own Inspector General found the actions of the OSP under Rumsfeld's direction -- to stovepipe contrary raw intel to the Administration -- to be inappropriate. Isn't inappropriate behavior wrong?
Even better, remember the Lawrence Franklin scandal? Good lord, here we have the Pentagon sanctioning meetings with Iran, Israeli spies...so much great stuff in the very same group making up their own intelligence to fit the facts around the policy.
Nothing wrong about that.
Contrasted with Benghazi where the issues were found to be systemic communication failures.
Apples and oranges.
