    I am not blaming the attack on Obama. I am blaming the cover up.

    The fact is Tyrone Woods was hit with mortar fire, he was alive, but bled to death over a period of 5 hours.

    There was a window of 7 hours between the first attack and the end. 7 HOURS!!! nothing was done, and soldiers and operatives were told to stand down. The fact is we were lied to about the stand down order, and we were lied ot about the attack being an attack because of some American who put a youtube video out.

    The same American that is still in jail. The guys life is ruined and he was made the scape goat.

    open your damn eyes.

    They knew it was a terror attack when it was happening, they were watching the damn thing for 7 hours on drove that was using video surveillance.

    So any facts that you "dispute" are to be ignored?? You can ignore the fact that the State Department and the White House whitewashed the CIA report and then lied about the months leading up to the attack in Benghazi, what caused the attack, who the attackers were, and what could have been done during the attack to protect the lives of Americans on American soil.

    None of this is funny to me but keep laughing if you want. Just try not to choke on you idiotic posts when this cover-up explodes right up BH Obama's ass.

    Cute way to keep her finger prints off of critical documents that she sure as hell should have read. But because she that she " was not aware of a request for additional security, it probably means she was unaware of a request for additional security."?
    Something else that it means is that her stinking ass is responsible for it. Hillary begged and kissed BHO's ass to get the job so she should pull her panties up and take her lumps.

    Uh-huh.

    And now you can go ahead and move beyond COMPLETE SPECULATION,( your "Big Article"), and explain how the Secretary of State was NOT INFORMED of MULTIPLE REQUESTS for more security , from our diplomatic mission , in the most dangerous region on Earth?

    WTF kind of Keystone Cops State Dept. was she running?

    Or...is she LYING?
    Well... let's see..it IS "Rose Law Firm billing records; I had no idea my brother was selling pardons; we had to dodge gunfire at the airport " Hillary Clinton...isn't it?

    Let's see some PROOF that her OWN Dept. failed to inform her of this DIRE CIRCUMSTANCE.

    Or, just make up some more ambiguous bullcrap, and pretend that does it.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Next: "Obama had nothing to do with what the White House spokesman said."

    Wait and see....

    If you read ANY it's clear you don't know how to use the 'ignore' feature. I saw this only because the unenlightened erred by quoting.

    The right started a war on terror and lowered the tax burden of the wealthiest, at the same time.

    Ansar al-Shar was NOT involved in the attack. Editing that part out of the talking points made them MORE truthful.

    It's not a "Cute way to keep her finger prints off of critical documents that she sure as hell should have read" it's State Department procedure, it's been done like that since the days when cables were actually cables, not emails, and it was probably done like that when communications were sent in wax sealed parchment.


    There are something like 60,000 employees of the State Department, they have one or more facilities in almost every country in the world.
    I think the security detail of one of those thousands of facilities might escape the notice of the Secretary of State.

    That's possible isn't it?
    That's something that would be left up to the discretion of someone below the Cabinet level, don't you think?

    Says who?


    It also was NOT a "SPONTANEOUS RESPONSE to 'the Video' ", was it?

    The Obama Adm. LIED from Day One, and their OWN RECORDS PROVE IT.

    Cover for them some more....it's getting hysterically funny...

    Once again, let's see the PROOF that Clinton's OWN DEPARTMENT failed to inform her of REPEATED REQUESTS for more security, from the diplomatic mission, in the most dangerous region on Earth, in addition to her knowing NOTHING about the Dept. of Defense offer of a Marine contingent in Benghazi, at NO COST TO THE STATE DEPT.

    Who EXACTLY, refused that offer?

    Really, I have to explain to you how it's possible that the Secretary of State, who heads a Department that has over 60,000 employees in thousands of facilities all over the world was not aware of the details of the security arrangements of one of those facilities.

    And then what? cut your meat for you?

    did cnn lie when they said there had been an arrest in the boston bombing? no they misinterpreted a communication

    you could turn that into some sort of conspiracy i guess, but it wouldn't wash

    just like the witch-hunt over benghazi isn't going to pan out

    the boy who cried wolf eventually got eaten

    that's what's funny



    then chew it for him

    No, you really have to explain to me how the Secretary of State, the officer RESPONSIBLE for diplomatic personell, was NOT INFORMED of REPEATED REQUESTS for INCREASED SECURITY, from her OWN diplomatic mission, in the MOST DANGEROUS REGION ON EARTH?

    Seem like it'd be a fairly high priority issue, wouldn't ya think?

    She LIED.

    Let's SEE IT, or just keep on making up total speculative BULLCRAP, to cover for the proven liars of the Obama Adm.

    Not why didn't she know about "dinner reservations?" or any other such drivel.

    what do want, blood, a public flogging?

    it is funny and who's saying they didn't make any mistakes?

    if george washington was around today and a democratic president

    would you all want to impeach him because he lied about chopping the cherry tree down?

    PLease cite the "misinterpretation" here:


    ABC News has obtained 12 different versions of the talking points that show they were extensively edited as they evolved from the drafts first written entirely by the CIA to the final version distributed to Congress and to U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice before she appeared on five talk shows the Sunday after that attack.


    White House emails reviewed by ABC News suggest the edits were made with extensive input from the State Department. The edits included requests from the State Department that references to the Al Qaeda-affiliated group Ansar al-Sharia be deleted as well references to CIA warnings about terrorist threats in Benghazi in the months preceding the attack.

    That would appear to directly contradict what White House Press Secretary Jay Carneysaid about the talking points in November.

    "Those talking points originated from the intelligence community. They reflect the IC's best assessments of what they thought had happened," Carney told reporters at the White House press briefing on November 28, 2012. "The White House and the State Department have made clear that the single adjustment that was made to those talking points by either of those two institutions were changing the word 'consulate' to 'diplomatic facility' because 'consulate' was inaccurate."
    Summaries of White House and State Department emails - some of which were first published by Stephen Hayes of the Weekly Standard - show that the State Department had extensive input into the editing of the talking points.

    State Department spokesman Victoria Nuland raised specific objections to this paragraph drafted by the CIA in its earlier versions of the talking points:

    "The Agency has produced numerous pieces on the threat of extremists linked to al-Qa'ida in Benghazi and eastern Libya. These noted that, since April, there have been at least five other attacks against foreign interests in Benghazi by unidentified assailants, including the June attack against the British Ambassador's convoy. We cannot rule out the individuals has previously surveilled the U.S. facilities, also contributing to the efficacy of the attacks."



    In an email to officials at the White House and the intelligence agencies, State Department spokesman Victoria Nuland took issue with including that information because it "could be abused by members [of Congress] to beat up the State Department for not paying attention to warnings, so why would we want to feed that either? Concerned …"


    The paragraph was entirely deleted.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Please, by all means, keep dancing to cover the LIES; it get's more entertaining wih every new pile of bullcrap you throw at the wall, in the hopes that "SOMETHING might stick".

    So far...no luck...but , please, keep trying.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Her "error" was a DELIBERATE LIE, as the OP emails clearly show., IGORE them some more.

    It's :roflol:really getting hysterically funny...
