Benghazi is about 4 Americans who were hoping to the end that help was on the way. It wasn't. It's about leaving the US Ambassador behind to be found by Libya looters. It's about people blaming a video for the deaths of those heroic Americans on US soil. Those same people knew in 'real time' that this video story was false. Its about a Secretary of Defense who claims "we don't normally drop our troops into harms way." It's about a Secretary of State who has now gambled her political career away by choosing to support the President's video story.
Do I hope voters consider this "on going" investigation as a ruse for dodging questions about the inconsistent stories form the White House Administration? Don't call yourself an American if when it comes time to vote this tragedy doesn't effect for whom you cast your vote.

If Obama does manage to win re-election, the House Republicans will be hounding him for the next four years over Benghazi-gate.
Then again, if the Republicans pick up four seats in the Senate, the Senate will be hounding him as well.
What the hell? We're not going to get any movement on economic policy; we might as well have a good political show.
Then again, if Romney wins, we can just flush this whole thing down the drain (unless Hillary runs in 2016)
What a great group here this evening. There is always one topic, that draws everyone in.
I love it, when that happens. It's like magic. A person makes a comment, someone responds, and then, all hell breaks loose.
Welcome to America! The miracle isn't over, just yet. Jefferson is smiling right now. Franklin and Adams, are raising an eyebrow.
Call me crazy, but I like to think they are still watching us. Watching to see what we have done, and are still going to do, with the gift they gave us.
No, I'm not crazy. I just don't understand why we are here, in the first place.
I've studied history. Believe me, I've studied history. The life we are living right now, should not have been. Individual freedom, as a lifestyle, never existed on this planet, before The United States of America, came into existence. Do your research. Prove me wrong.
Two hundred years of Freedom, and this Bimbo shows up, out of nowhere.
Coincidence? I don't think so. He is nothing more than an actor, reading a script, make that a teleprompter.
This was planned. This black, Muslim, Communist, is an attack on our Freedom. An attack on our Constitution. An attack on our Nation.
Wake up, America. Before its too late.
Hey, Joe Biden, Can you tell us how "gutsy" Obama is again?... He ALWAYS orders the right action to protect Americans, right?
I have always maintained that Biden was his bullet proof vest. No one is going to shoot him, no one is going to impeach him.
Because what you are left with, is someone who can't even spell his own name.
To hell with that. Impeach Obama, declare Biden senile and Speaker Cantor becomes President.
That'd be great if we change it to treason, and throw biteme in there with dear leader, except Boehner is speaker and he's spineless.
We have a Narcissistic Communist, Muslim, Imbecile, for a President right now. There has never been any President, who previously occupied the office, who was not more qualified than this Idiot, to be there. And we've had some pretty bad Presidents over time.
In any primitive society, after what just happened with Benghazi, he would be room temperature right now.
We are not that kind of people, and I am not suggesting that, as a solution. Let me make that clear.
But, the American people have never before, in the history of this great nation, ever experienced a sitting President, who hates this country the way this man does, and wants to change it to a Socialist nation.
The only reason he will not be impeached for this, is that it is too close to the election. That, and the fact that there are too many wimps in Congress.
This man makes me sick. I puke when I see his picture, I puke again when he starts talking.
Please, send the Secret Service to my doorstep. I'll order beer and pizza. They hate his guts, just like I do. Only difference between us is, I can say it, and not lose my job. Because I own my own business, Mr. Obama.
And you didn't build it. I guarandamnedtee you didn't build it. You never built anything in your miserable life.
Barack Hussein Obama should have been impeached in January 2010 and many times since January 2010 but the lack of any real leadership in the House run by John Andrew Boehner - I believe he's the only reason that Barack Hussein Obama has not been impeached in almost two years... I've been saying that John Andrew Boehner should go as soon as the new Congress is sworn in and will continue till he is replaced and a true Conservative leader is running the house... Also Eric Holder should be punished for his major role in the death of American and Mexican lives.....
I have never had any respect for Boehner. An empty suit.
Tell me about your name. I'm intrigued.
He's the worst president this country has ever had...and obviously the most spineless as well to sit on his hands for seven hours while four Americans were fighting for their lives against hundreds of attackers! And then he wandered off to bed as if nothing was happening in Libya. I wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully ever again if I was in obama's shoes, but I know he doesn't have any problem sleeping at night.
The man is sickening, on any level. I am embarrassed for our country, that he is our President.
CBS needs to be hauled before Issa's committee under oath and answer for their cover up of the 60 Minutes interview, the Benghazi emails they had, why Sharyl Attkisson broke her email story the night after the foreign policy debate and why the CBS moderator of the foreign policy debate gave Barky Boy a pass on these horrific events and were accessories in the WH coverup from the American voters.
CBS has the 60 Minutes interview, they had the emails and they moderated the foreign policy debate. Time for Sean Hannity and Mark Levin to demand Debate #4 with them moderating immediately.
Absolutely YES!!!! This disgusting individual that calls himself president (he's never been mine) is a lying, muslim who clearly HATES America and Americans!!! Him and his lying degenerates like Pinetta (the guy needs to stop drinking he has a nose like W C Fields)! These ANTI-AMERICANS should be punished by a Military Tribunal for Treasonl!!! Especially OBAMA, our GREATEST WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION!!!!!!!!!!! Boy would we enjoy watching this on national television. Can just see the headlines...Proof Obama LIED to American people about Bengazi and Much...Much...More!!! Stay tuned!!!
Well, he's not a Muslim, and I'm not sure he h8s America, but he's certainly a bad president.
Oh really!!! So answer this...why has Obama said that the call to prayer is the most beautiful sound?...why did he state in 2008 that there are 57 states in the union???... why has he sided with Iran against Israel???... why hasn't he condemned the Muslim Brotherhood for saying Israel should not exist??? You actually DON'T know what you are talking about!!! Finally...why won't he come clean with his documentation (passport, college transcript, birthcertificate)???Perhaps because he IS a Muslim!
His happiest moments are when he is looking in the mirror. I don't think that he either loves, nor hates, America. That would require him to care about someone else.
Winston is right. Again. :)
Absolutely nothing will happen over this. Not with this administration. Not with this Liberal media. He could take the ferry to Ellis Island and pee on the Statue of Liberty, and they would think it was a miraculous statement, on the way he cares for the world, or some other equally putrid bullshit.
I had a brief conversation today with a business associate. Someone I truly respect. Owns his own business. Provides for his family. Beautiful wife and twin sons, who are the greatest treasure to him, as you might imagine. He knows my political leanings, from previous conversations.
Asked me today, "who are you voting for?" It really caught me off guard. I wanted to scream at him, "Who do you think I'm voting for!"
But, I didn't. He's a good friend and a decent human being. I only bring this up, because all of us have friends and neighbors and family, who think Obama is just peachy keen. I don't understand it, and neither do you. And we are going into this election, probably the most important election in American history, knowing that.
I think I understand Politics. I will never understand people, or their motivations for the way they behave.
Like librtyfirst said, must be something in the water.
with such a close election, would wait till after nov 6th to comment on this. I think he out to be impeached for many reasons, but we know with reid and senate it won't happen. when romney wins, and hopefully we take the senate, we need to get a new speaker. boehner is useless. jmo
Scott is RIGHT ON THE MONEY. This is exactly the kind of thing I'd like to hear from Mitt Romney. Sadly, he plays it too cool to really bring the cold truth like this.
"When you start a war, there are worse things to hear than the sound of American boots on the ground."
Just brilliant. So poignant.
I still think Romney will let the whole thing slide if elected. He will want to focus on the economy and jobs. That to me is an accessory after the fact
He can walk and chew gum at the same time. I don't know if he would have anything to do with charging a previous President of crimes anyway, would he?
I'm offended that we have Americans that were screaming for help and this administration didn't lift a finger to help them. At the very least we could have gotten an AC-130 gunship over the area to help out and blast the jihadists that were attacking the consulate, but we didn't even do that. This attack lasted roughly seven, that's right, SEVEN, hours and a gunship could have possibly saved the lives of at least those two Navy seals who died late in the battle. But what is certain is that the decision to do NOTHING condemned these men to death, and THAT should not be allowed to stand, regardless of who is President or Secretary of State.
Did Obama "aid and abet" the enemy? No. We're a nation of LAW, not a nation of, "Obama is a crappy president who didn't do a good job protecting our ambassadors in Libya, so I think we should charge him with treason."
Boehner doesn't have the guts to do it, or the will. He just wants to come out and "demand" stuff to make it look like he is doing something. Also, I think, that if they commenced drawing up articles of impeachment - the media would make a martyr out of Obama and play it so he would get sympathy votes. We need all the votes we can get on our side.
He wrote a letter. He thinks that's enough. Well, I for one have had enough of him. He needs to go, be charged and investigated. How could he not know at least some of this.
Well, one can't impeach an Ex-President, but one can haul him in front of courts.
He could, for example, be called in front of a civil court, accused of wilfully contributing to the murder of four Americans, and made to pay damages, couldn't he?
But far more important is to make the amoral, corrupt media pay for their criminal acts, like CBS did in suppressing the snippet where Bathhouse Barry says it was a terrorist attack on 9/12.
Their licences should be revoked - and meanwhile, just cancel any subscription to those Alphabet networks.
Also - find out who decided to snip Bathhouse Barry's admission. Did some government official twist the arms of CBS directors? Who decided this?
We should be told!
The sad thing is even if Obama loses this election we will still have to live with the consequences of his actions. He was right that we haven't even begun to pay the price for ousting Mubarak and Gaddafi and allowed the Muslim Brotherhood to gain control.
When Romney is elected I do not want Benghazi gate brushed to the side and if the truth points to the former president Barack Obama I want him not impeached but prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
My question for CBS is why bring out the video now and why not hide it until after the election if you want Obama to win? It should have been out with the rest of the interview so does someone at CBS need to clear their conscience?
I don't know the answer but I can tell you that Sharyl Attkisson was being tweeted alot the night they broke the email story, the night after CBS moderated the foreign policy debate and I for one was demanding to know why this issue was not raised the prior night by their moderator. She has been breaking stories so I wonder if she helped from the inside. Again, no knowledge just theory.
My humble opinion is that the media is coordinated by the establishment in D.C. Almost all media is now owned by corporate globalist thugs who work with government for all kinds of conspiracies.
I have seen where a drug company was coming out with a new drug to fight a particular disease or virus, then the governement comes out with a "study", and the media pushes the story line throughout the networks.
It is a little bit too obvious to ignore.
'People will forgive almost any degree of incompetence, but what they will not forgive is a cover-up and direct lying to cover people's butts.' - Whittle
We have 11 days till the election. Obama wants to survive just 11 days with this cover-up. After that, should he win the election, he could care less what we think about his cover-up. He thinks he will not be held accountable to the American people after his re-election. He thinks he will be more flexible to do whatever he wants, which will include laughing in our faces that we cannot touch him.
First of all, he's wrong. Should he get reelected, he will not be invincible. He will be accountable. But more importantly, he will not make it to reelection. Just 11 days. We need to push this story and break it wide open as much as any other out there - for the sake of the four dead men, for the sake of our nation, for the sake of our very integrity as a people.
The Battle of the Alamo took 13 days - 13 days of glory, where those brave and courageous men fought and died in order that Sam Houston and Texas would prevail. We have 11 days. We must prevail in this battle against the audacity and the outright arrogance of this man who holds the highest position in our government and spits on us as if we were peons and serfs.
He must not get away with this final outrage, this coup-d'etat of our founding documents and our basic beliefs in human dignity. The loss of those four men, brave souls who sacrificed and died, must not go in vain.
The problem is that the enemy is much larger than one man, Obama. Its the entire Left wing structure in this country starting with MSM (and to a lesser degree Hollywood). It's essentially keeping Obama in power and giving him a fighting chance of winning re-election.
What would have happened if these same exact incidents transpired say 5 or 6 years ago? You and I know the answer to this question. However, he has "gotten away" with so much b/c of the fourth estate. No one really knows the severity of the economy, the impending healthcare disaster, the debt crisis, food and gas prices, etc. b/c of the continual coverup of the press.
It's like Rush said the other day, "This is Watergate but with Woodward and Bernstein actively helping to cover it up."
Our side does it's fair share. But, when you have an overall populace that is lazy and over indulgent coupled with what I just described, what's left? Democracy only works if its citizens are engaged and educated. I just don't see any outrage over what Obama or the Left continues to do among the general populace.
I so desperately want to be wrong about the state of our country. I hope Obama is in fact, held accountable ... but I am not holding my breath. I apologize for sounding morose.
I understand your pain, PhillyCon. I feel it too. However, I have great hope, as I see the populace slowly turning away from Obama and the Socialist ideal. I see the media slowly cracking in the last few weeks while they realize their ratings have plunged from their actions.
It has indeed been a long, hard journey for those of us on the Conservative battlegrounds. It will be vindicated come November 6th, but even then, we will need to continue the fight to right this ship and ensure that it stays upright.
Freedom never comes easy. We, as a people, have slipped in the last few decades by allowing socialism to creep into our lives. We are in outright war with it now and I feel we will be victorious.
The cat, as they say, is out of the bag.
Thank you for your positive outlook. Benghazi is the third most trending topic on Yahoo. So, maybe there is hope with the greater, less engaged public.
