    What was the reason that Bush didn't move fast enough to save any lives in Embassy attacks during his Presidency?

    Good detail you point out that's being completely rewritten today. The "new" version of history is that Bush was "rushed away by the secret service". Facts don't fit? Just change them for future ignoramuses.

    It's funnier how some of you folk claim to want to reduce deficit and create jobs, yet cheer on your dumb leaders wasting taxpayer's money chasing rabbits.

    Because everybody already universally recognizes that Nixon was a "crook". That's a given. I coulda thrown in the criminal Reagan and the Iran Contra "wait until I get elected before you release the hostages so Carter doesn't get the credit" fiasco but, I chose not to.

    First of all, you got the details all wrong.

    Bush just sat there when he was informed that a plane had hit one of the towers. He wasn't pulled anywhere, he just sat there and continued reading. And yes, he was criticized for it.

    So now you want Obama to be held accountable? He has been held accountable, it was under his watch, but he didn't try to cover up anything, he didn't write the talking points, he didn't say it was due to a video, and he didn't give a stand down order. So why are you all making up all this crappy lies? So you think he should be impeached? Unbelievable.

    Ya I know, holding your Dear Leader's administration accountable for lying to the American public. The fiscal horror.

    Well, Benghazi cost the taxpayers 40 million dollars.

    And, I don't think the IRS actually got any money out of all those Tea Party organizations they were harassing, so it must have cost them a penny or two to write all those threatening letters.

    And, it must have cost more than a buck to get all those phone records from AP....

    Yeah. President Obama has been mostly fiscal horror.

    That's your own 'baseless' opinion.

    Please refer to post # 41.

    It's rather simple logic, really.

    Too bad the official explanation of the events actually fits the available facts, while the various counter proposals offered vary from physically impossible, (blowing up the WTC with nanothermate) to essentially inervention by space aliens or at least the use of alien technology (Dr. Judys particle accelerator theory)

    Oh maybe because none of them lasted seven damn hours, jeeze... In fact all of them were done in less than 30 minutes. You know the same reason the REps didn't go after Clinton on the two African embassy bombings.

    So, Obama never blamed the attack on the video?

    Excerpt from Obama's Rose Garden Speech:
    http://www.forextv.com/forex-news-s...e-garden-speech-after-sept-11-benghazi-attack

    Obama has never claimed that he never linked the attack to the video. He only claims that he also called it terrorism. In the fourth paragraph, when he says "We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others." he is talking about the video. That is a point that he has not denied. Futher as long as two weeks later, he refused to call the attack terrorism.

    I never said that he gave a stand down order, but someone did. Why do you think that they suddenly fired General Carter Ham and Rear Admiral Charles Gaouette? General Ham was the CG of the African Command and Adm. Gaouette was the Commander of the USS USS John Stennis Strike Group. Both were relieved because they wanted to provide assistance to the Consultant even after being told to stand down.

    Further, I did not make up any lies. Obama did go to bed leaving others to do his job, Every story that has been told about Benghazi has been to cover that fact.

    Yes there was. This poster spells it out quite thoroughly in his own thread. You did read it did you not.

    Obama lies and this poster spells out his utterances of terrorism and why they don't count as evidence as to calling it terrorism.

    "The GOP has been trying to make Benghazi into a political issue literally 10 minutes after it happened."

    Taxcutter says:
    Forty years ago it was: "The Democrats been trying to make Watergate into a political issue literally 10 minutes after it happened."

    Hussein Obama = Milhous Nixon.

    The bottom line is that if Chelsea Clinton had been that Ambassador, would she and three others been allowed to be murdered?

    Of course not. The armed forces would have been committed to the max and more flown in.

    In Mogadishu a sizable battle was fought to save one helo crew. In Benghazi, Americans were hung out to dry by their government when it could have at least TRIED to save them.

    Thanks boss. I left out a word or two.

    Anybody that CAN'T smell a rat in the 9/11 steaming pile of BS the administration at the time put out, has to be an idiot, ignorant, or paid to promote the steaming piles.

    It's the lazy way of going about gaining knowledge. Fat, stupid and lazy is how we fly here in the US, "American Idol" lemming, remote control, beer guzzling, RX taking geniuses. Tell me a story, stamp it "official" and I'm good because I haven't got time to verify anything for myself. Yes, normal operating procedure, for sure.
