BENGHAZI - Some of you Teapublicans need to STFU

So What I gather from this is that Obama and his administration enied addditional security to the embassy based on political motivation so they could claim it was not terrorism but the reduction in security spending by the GOP that caused the attack and lack of adequate defense..

Ambassador: we need additional security because this places has become much more dangerous.
Obama: Um well, as you know, um we cant, um do anything to , well um, help out, because um, you know the GOP wont let us.

I am so glad we have that cleared up.

One more term and the libtard police state will be fully entrenched.

The truth came out. Now we're hearing the cover up and more lies.

You Morons have lost all perspective on Benghazi!

While it is sad and disheartening when a US Embassy is attacked and lives are lost, it does happen. Most sensible people don't use it as political fodder.


However Fox "News" and the idiotic wing nuts on this site seem to be intent on making this attack another failed rallying cry to use to manipulate Low Information Voters.

In a flagrant show of stupidity, the creeps here continue to copy and paste their desperate, baseless right wing crap about Benghazi on this board.


Where were your righteous demands for investigations after the 11 US Embassy attacks under W?

Under the 'watchful' eyes of

George W. Bush

11 US Embassies were attacked

resulting in 53 Deaths and 90 Injuries!

It’s called PERSPECTIVE

Get some!

And that's not even counting 9/11!

Fox and you cretins might want to stop showing your asses now!

ok fine .. then feel free to debunk the fact the pentagon scrambled 2 special ops teams (1 from europe, 1 from the us) to italy before Fox started their stand down story..

the world awaits

fyi before you cut and run, the first attack started at 9;40 the order to send in special ops was given in less that 3 hours later.

ready set GO!

It was a cluster fuck both before and after

I recall the commander asking questions like, when is the attack going to happen, what will be the nature of the attack, etc etc. I had no answers. With other competing interests and a dwindling budget there was no way he could justify spending additional funds against a plausible but invisible threat. 3 months later the compound was bombed.

So back to this issue, how much security would have been justified? It would not have prevented the attack. I guarantee you they would have simply brought more weapons and bodies to make the attack just as effective. Hell, the embassy's attack reaction plan was out of date and immediately went to shit. I do acknowledge that additional security personnel may have prevented the death of Ambassador Stevens, but casualties were inevitable.

Amazing how folks are quick to dismiss the words of the CINCs, CIA and Sec of State in order to pursue the "reality" they've created in their heads.

Oh and from someone who was at ground zero of the 2008 financial meltdown, it's pretty fucking sad that many of you forget how bad it really was. Go back and read the headlines.
