    It means a crude and disgusting video sparked outrage through the Muslim world which is a true statement.

    Yeah, it was only 4 Americans who died because of Obama's incompetence. No big deal....to them. It's a small sacrifice for their "Dear Leader" and comrade.

    Heck, the Repubs have already stuffed the ballot boxes in their favor. They're going for 79% in every precinct in the country. In most places they won't even count the votes. They'll just say that Romney won.

    Typical conservative "journalism" that Fox is so well known for.

    Fair and balanced? You decide.

    Well, since they have as many libs as they do cons, I had decided they're pretty 'fair and balanced'....

    You don't get that from MSNBC, CNN, etc.......

    Margot got all excited when she found the blog, thinking it's nothing but the TRUTH - funny........

    Here's also another clue....The Obama Administration became silent on it as soon as he got caught in a lie and people were not accepting "Fog of War" excuses anymore. For two weeks they couldn't talk about anything else.."Video...video...video". Now, silence. They know they are in it deep, election or not.

    But you are willing to accept information from a blog over that of the largest cable TV news organization?

    People just need to believe their own eyes on this one. He knew it was a terror attack, he said for weeks it was protests and the video. Done.

    Obama is depending on his lapdogs in the lib news media to mention Benghazi as little as possible and let the short attention span of the voters do the rest.

    Little wonder why the lib posters here attempt to marginalize it.

    There should be a category for Obama voters called "Delivering the Government Bacon to Lazy Mooches."

    If so Obama's approval rating among mooches would be 90 to 95%.

    And for most Obama voters delivering the bacon is the single issue that decides their vote.

    CIA’s Benghazi timeline reveals errors, but no conspiracy Nov 5, 2012


    It’s a story of individual bravery, but also of a CIA misjudgment in relying on Libyan militias and a newly formed Libyan intelligence organization to keep Americans safe in Benghazi. While there were multiple errors that led to the final tragedy, there’s no evidence that the White House or CIA leadership deliberately delayed or impeded rescue efforts.

    The CIA is now reviewing its security plans around the world to make sure the agency isn’t relying on shaky local forces. This is a difficult task because the U.S. currently has such vulnerable arrangements in dozens of places.

    Why do you keep blaming the CIA when it is the White House and State Department - i.e. Barack and Hillary who were responsible for security of our consulate?

    They hired Blue Mountain security out of the UK.. and Blue Mountain sent one Brit they had recruited from celebrity body guards... Its probably too complicated for you to understand, Mac.. but the State Dept and CIA relied on the hired Libyan guards in a country that was still shaky.

    And you may not understand that CEO's, Generals and leaders rely on people under them for information and assessments.. None of our leaders have ever been omniscient.

    - 10:10: The rescue team reached a chaotic intersection a few blocks from the consulate. Militias gathered there have several 50-caliber machine guns, which the CIA team tries unsuccessfully to commandeer; three militiamen offer to help. The rescue party now includes 10 people: six GRS officers; a CIA translator, and the three Libyan volunteers.

    - 10:20: A reconnaissance party of two GRS officers heads to the consulate; at 10:25, three more GRS officers enter the main gate and begin engaging the attackers. The firefight lasts about 15 minutes.

    I understand quite well who the CIA works for and answers to.

    Which means who is ultimately responsible for any errors made in Libya.

    In the end this whole mess traces back to Obama.

    I also understand that I'm debating an Obama zombie who gets their information from Arab newspapers.

    Yeah, hell it was only four Americans... plenty more where they came from, right? As Comrade Obama put it himself, this incident was to be expected as part of an ongoing process -- a "bump in the road". So, pay no attention "to the man behind the curtain"... he knows what's best for you (and himself). A day is coming....

    Because she has no idea how the world works. As if it isn't obvious enough.

    The true and blatant conspiracy is the one designed to deceive the American people as to the motive behind the attack. It had nothing to do with a video and BH Obama knew it when he sent his people out to claim that it was not a terror attack.


    Why try to divert blame to the CIA when it was the State Department that denied more security to our people in Libya.

    More diversion. The CIA is not responsible for diplomats' security. There are CIA people in and around our embassies but we have historically used Marines for security at our embassies.

    Almost daily another piece of the puzzle is found by the press. Why is that? There are a dozen people involved in this. They could all get in a room with their logs and memos and figure out the timeline in an afternoon. So why haven't they? It has been about 8 weeks now. How much longer must the regime investigate before president Obama finds out what his role was?

    No need to continue, lefty apologist: the weasel words are already evident therein. Allow me to interject my beacons in red into that pile of propaganda:

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ T H l S ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    This purely political lying to America is excused by the mindless or committed drones. They can excuse Obama's crimes in anything. It seems impossible any rational and aware person CAN'T SEE THE DECEPTION. I cannot believe they exist. The must willfullt deny a clear reality or they're stoooopid.

    They destroyed the US embassy in Tunisia and the Ambassador is in hiding.

    A CIA crew would have planned an escape route on arrival in Benghazi and yanked the Ambassador out of Benghazi at the first sign someone was taking photos.

    Tell me more. What 'first sign'? How soon before the actual attack would knowing that someone was taking pictures before a plan would have been executed? Would the plan have been successful, and resulted in saving the lives of the Ambassador, and the three others who died?
