"Can we blame this on a flood, or insane person? How about that video?"
"CAN WE BLAME THIS ON THE VIDEO - and not the Obama Policy failures?"

THAT was the question - that history will show caused Obama's Impeachment!

OBAMA AND HILLARY ARE BOTH AS WORTHLESS AS THEY COME. OUR ENTIRE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO BE KICKED INTO THE STREET AND TRIED FOR TREASON. THE WHOLE WORLD IS LAUGHING AT US.

The crap is going to hit the fan on this one. The State Department is lying through their teeth. They won't be able to cover up on this one.

The State Department claims about half of the instances were small and insignificant. Ok, so what about the other 6 or seven incidences that were significant? Only one is needed.

We are going to find in this investigation that the State Department turned down requests for security because they wanted Libya to handle it.

The big question however will be how did the State Department handle evacuation requests on the day of attack. Any embassy can request immediate evacuation with one phone call. If that phone call was made, was it denied and referred to Libyan security forces?

No doubt the US screwed up big-time, kinda like the USS Cole, when after the fact we did a rug dance to justify why the ship was not properly guarded, or even guarding itself. Now the State Dept is doing more of the same thing. We say we are at war with World Terrorism in any shape or form, yet persist in walking around with our pants down around our ankles waiting to get slapped in the head. Until and unless we start taking this seriously we are going to continue to keep getting our butts kicked by the terrorists, not only in AfPac, but places like Africa, etc..

HONOR BEFORE DUTY---> When you preform your Duty do so in/along side HONOR...If you have no honor at the completion of duty, it would have been better NOT TO HAVE PERFORMED THE TASK AT ALL. U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens SERVED OUR COUNTRY WITH HONOR, and his Honor was COMPONDED BY THE LACK OF HONOR FROM THOSE WHOM WERE IN CHARGE OF HIS SAFTEY. We are TIRED OF LIES, LET THE TRUTH RING FROM THE HIGHEST BELL The first Congressional hearing to focus on the fatal attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi will be held by the House Oversight Committee this Wednesday... Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday

Only two options... Obama is either too stupid to realize that having a consulate/embassy without protection in the MENA region (Middle East/North Africa) on the anniversary of 9-11, especially after hearing Ambassador Stevens begging for his life, by way of requesting additional protection, or he just simply offered up ambassador Stevenson to his Muslim coreligionists as a way for America to atone for having killed Bin Laden. Up until the debate, I leaned more towards the latter option, but after Barry's performance last week, I don't really know any more.

If he was planning to atone, why kill Bin Laden in the first place? Just curious as to your reasoning there...

Exactly USS. Obama had to give the okay to get Bin Laden or he would have been seen as weak and sympathizing with him. When it comes to Muslim a** licking, no one does it better than Obama and his minions.

A Must Read

It's true. truthorfiction.com/rumors/d/DNC-BASKET-BAN.htm

Read it carefully - I was actually surprised by what it has to say!

by Rev. Austin Miles
CHARLOTTE, North Carolina

(9/11/12) When the DNC came to Charlotte, area churches, 100 of them, offered hospitality, not knowing how much the Dems hate God and would actually boo God at the convention. They had no idea how that hatred would be directed at them and their churches.

The Sunday before the DNC, over 9000 people had come together to pray for the convention. Then, wanting to extend hospitality to the visitors to their city, 56 of the churches set out to "Adopt-a-Delegation." They put together gift baskets featuring Carolina Pralines and a letter welcoming them to the city and offering assistance in transportation, childcare or spiritual matters.

According to writer, Todd Starnes, The DNC banned the churches from distributing the gift baskets to delegates because, DNC said, the congregations hold values that are contrary to the party platform. Read that carefully.
David Benham, one of the organizers of the outreach said, "We were just trying to display Southern hospitality." DNC officials, however, conveyed to city leaders that the Christians would not be allowed to present their gift baskets. Even the Charlotte Mayor's office jumped in to tell the churches not to participate, saying that their views on women's rights are contrary to the platform. That's right....the same platform that booed God later.

Benham then asked if they could send welcome letters to the delegates. Again, the DNC refused, because, they said, "The churches hold pro-life values."

The baskets did not contain a single political or pro-life message. They just wanted to give them regional candies and a welcome letter. The DNC refused to return numerous phone calls seeking comment. But it gets worse. When a gathering of 200 Muslims showed up to pray for the convention, the Dems welcomed them with open arms and the liberal media gave extensive national coverage.

It is ironic that this day, in the shadow of that Islamic prayer event, we commemorate the greatest tragedy in American History, when Muslims attacked America on September 11, 2001, brutally killing thousands of innocent people. Muslims who publicly state their hatred of our country with fierce determination to kill us all and put America under Sharia Law, are welcomed by the Democratic Party while Christians are pushed out of sight like criminals because they respect life and hold family values.

These are the same Democrats who want you to vote them into office to direct the United States of America and every life from beginning to end. It is obvious that we must not let this happen.

The problem may be that (Mrs) Clinton has spent very little time directing the State Dept, spending almost all of her time visiting this country and that country which she obviously enjoys doing, although accomplishing nearly nothing. She may not remember where her desk is in the Dept building but surely there would be someone there who could direct her. I doubt she would sit long at her desk, she would be bored, she would be thinking of what country or countries she would enjoy visiting next.

That could be part of it EROTEME2. Another part is the fact that whenever she tries to deal with Muslim Arab leaders she is at a disadvantage. They look upon any woman as chattel to be subjugated by the male. Obama knows this, being the Muslim or Muslim sympathizer that he is, he's laughing at her behind her back. That is why he picked her for his SOS in the first place. Of course Hillary went for the bait because of the publicity hound she is, thinking that the position would keep her name in the news, which it has. The problem is, she hasn't been able to make any real progress in the Middle East and never will because of that Arab Muslim idea of women as chattel. It's an insult to a Muslim Arab man to have a woman dare to present herself as his equal in any matter, State or otherwise.

I find it not surprising that the liberals who flock to an attack on Romney or Obama show no interest in this story.Why? the MSM has generally down played the dishonesty of the administration in the matter and the fact that the Obama adminsitration failed horribly here. I see one poster saying the ambassador should have stayed in Tripoli. The man was courageous man serving our country and lost his life in good part because the state dept failed miserably and yet he is treated with disdain. this is a horrible way to act.

So now what? Should the Obama Admin fortify each consulate in every muslim country with an entire battalion of Marines? Will the congress pay for it?

your redundant right wing whining about the MSM is pretty laughable looking at the top 3 headlines right here.

Dishonesty....without it right wingers would be left only with hypocrisy

GuyfromPA - you've proven yourself to be a liberal... you are an anti-capitalist TARP supporter.

Don't like yourself, eh?

Hey Aintfakin, how about we fortify each consulate in every extremely unstable Muslim country where our loyal people on the ground are pleading for greater security. Safety first. Obama is the one who wants to cut the military budget by $500 million dollars+, and he is the one who needs to answer for this.

How much emergency funding to hire more guards has been authorized and allocated by Congress?? The House created over thirty bills to kill the PPACA. What are they doing about this; having meetings?? How much should be spent; there are many diplomats over the world??

Poor example Mercury.

In 1998, the U.S. Congress passed, and President Bill Clinton signed, the Iraq Liberation Act. That Act stated, "It should be the policy of the United States to support efforts to remove the regime headed by Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq, and to promote the emergence of a democratic government to replace that regime." This legislation passed the House by a vote of 360 to 38, and it passed the Senate without a single vote in opposition.

Surely you don't believe that only the right was involved in that policy decision.
