    So his requests for more assets that were denied by the State Department are his fault?

    So you want to blame the little people instead of Hillary and Obama?

    Thats so typical of the Obama worshiping lefties.

    Read the links concerning Blue Mountain Security.. They wanted the money..

    The Libyan guards were told to call in and run like hell if there was a problem.

    Anyone but the leading Democrats are potential "bumps in the road".

    And the ultimate blame for that falls directly at the feet of Hillary and Obama.

    You seem to think that Obama micro-manages every embassy and consulate in the world.

    Do you realize that at any given time we have covert ops in 75 different countries ?

    Do you have a clue as to what is going on in ten African countries... the intel, covert ops, training missions, the flow of weapons out of Libya.. the fight against Al Shabab, Boko Haram, the LRA and others?

    There are brave people out there dealing with very dangerous, complicated situations.. who won't get it right every time.. unlike our keyboard warriors.

    This is such a great point. Obama drafted tons of help in blaming an obscure video as the cause of the attack, but little else to actually help those who were attacked.

    When Obama called on the SEALs, they killed bin Laden. When the SEALs called on Obama, their calls went unheeded, and they were killed.

    Stop it! You are making me cry. Such a hard job, Obama and Hillary have.

    What makes their decision making a little easier, one would think, is when Ambassador Stevens personally requests more security in Benghazi after real incidents that convinced him they were woefully under protected. Did the State Department take no notice whatsoever when the Brits closed their consulate up and the Red Cross took off too? Is anyone in charge in Washington DC?

    Your rationalizing is sadly pathetic.

    I think Obama is ultimately responsible for appointing people who can get the job done.

    If they don't do their job then Obama has not done his job.

    And lets not forget Obama himself not taking his commander in chief duties seriously leading up to the attack on our consulate or after it began.

    Your hero is directly responsible for the deaths of 4 Americans.

    You speak the truth. Obama cannot lay this off on Bush, for once!

    Weakness invites attacks and in April, May and June, leading up to the 9/11 attack, terrorist incidents in and around our consulate indicated that local jihadist militias were active and violence was on the rise. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_on_the_U.S._diplomatic_mission_in_Benghazi

    "After the fatal September 11 attack, CNN reported that a Benghazi security official and a battalion commander had met with U.S. diplomats three days before the attack and had warned the Americans about deteriorating security in the area. The official told CNN that the diplomats had been advised, "The situation is frightening, it scares us."
    Obama was warned and knew better yet nothing happened. He doesn't deserve the office of the presidency.

    Number one, I am not a Republican I am an Independent... Number two, what are your credentials Comrade? You show no proof to back up your statement of eleven minutes, its just a bald faced lie! This is one trait (Including your insulting nature) of Democrats that has caused so many to move away from your party and become Independents. As I am now a former Democrat turned Independent. Do not spit on their graves sir, they fought heroically for seven hours!

    According to, Retired Adm. James A. Lyons was commander in chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet and senior U.S. military representative to the United Nations.

    There is an urgent need for full disclosure of what has become the “Benghazi Betrayal and Cover-up.” The Obama national security team, including CIA, DNI and the Pentagon, apparently watched and listened to the assault on the U.S. consulate and cries for help but did nothing. If someone had described a fictional situation with a similar scenario and described our leadership ignoring the pleas for help, I would have said it was not realistic—not in my America – but I would have been proven wrong.

    Once the attack commenced at 10:00 p.m. Libyan time (4:00 p.m. EST), we know the mission security staff immediately contacted Washington and our embassy in Tripoli. It now appears the White House, Pentagon, State Department, CIA, NDI, JCS and various other military commands monitored the entire battle in real time via frantic phone calls from our compound and video from an overhead drone. The cries for help and support went unanswered.

    Our Benghazi mission personnel, including our two former Navy SEALs, fought for seven hours without any assistance other than help from our embassy in Tripoli

    The Obama national security team, including CIA, DNI, State Department and the Pentagon, watched and listened to the assault but did nothing to answer repeated calls for assistance. It has been reported that President Obama met with Vice President Joseph R. Biden and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta in the Oval Office, presumably to see what support could be provided. After all, we had very credible military resources within striking distance. At our military base in Sigonella, Sicily, which is slightly over 400 miles from Benghazi, we had a fully equipped Special Forces unit with both transport and jet strike aircraft prepositioned.

    Retired Adm. James A. Lyons was commander in chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet and senior U.S. military representative to the United Nations.

    He managed to make it to the White House Situation Room for his Bin Laden photo op.
    He managed to make it to the White House Situation Room for his hurricane Sandy photo op.
    Why don't we have his photo-op picture of him in the situation room while he allowed the slaughter of Ambassador Stevens, Smith, Woods, and Doherty?

    Perhaps he did not bother to go there.

    Maybe he already knew the end game was for Mersi's troops to kidnap Stevens. Maybe that is why the Islamists poured diesel into the buildings and set the fuel ablaze. They were trying to smoke him out into the open. Only they killed him instead.

    The one term Marxist will not escape the legacy of Obama's Benghazi Massacre.

    Omg... you're RIGHT. Also, if this pix was authentic, he WAS there, w/his ego, he'd be sitting in a chair, positioned as 'Commander-in-Chief' - not stuck over in the corner, shrunken down.... yeah, this pix is as phony as he is.......

    No picture of Obama in the situation room while the attack on our consulate was taking place.

    Was Der Black Fuhrer asleep?

    Playing golf?

    Practicing his stump speech?

    Or hiding under the bed?

    Rest assured: if Benghazi had turned out well, the White House IT department would have whipped up an amateur photochop of Obama intently watching within a day.

    Of course, he'd have had a golf glove sticking out of his rear pocket, and his eyes would have been cast at the wrong angle, and his head would have been about 11% smaller than the guy they pasted him next to...

    ...but they'd have released it for an agog unquestioning press - that's certain.
