#4 "There is no evidence the White House is hiding the truth about what occurred in Benghazi," lefty journalist David Corn wrote in left-leaning Mother Jones magazine. "But the White House has indeed been caught not telling the full story."

WTF? I ended a relationship with someone who I "caught not telling the full story." In other words, he was "hiding the truth." How, exactly, is one distinct from the other?

#5 How, exactly, is one distinct from the other?

One is a sin of commission as in "you lying s.o.b", the other a sin of omission as in "mistakes were made"?

Still means four dead and numerous wounded. It's how you can present the bloody package, I guess.
