Questions on Benghazi

[Quantum Windbag]

no one cares. stop politicizing a terrorist attack

Obama did that, not me.

Consulate in Libya makes a statement. Romney jumps on it. America finds out Ambassador and others murdered.

FOX News and GOP feed narrative that initial reports were some kind of cover up.

problem, the Obama Administration did not attack the US Consulate. Watergate this is not.

NYT sells ink. You people usually say they are in the tank for Obama.

now take a breath and realize, most normal people don't care.

Actual chain of events.

Embassy in Egypt makes a statement, Romney calls them on it. Obama agrees and orders the embassy to pull said statement because they issued it without permission.

Consulate in Benghazi is attacked hours later.

Obama blames attack in Benghazi on video and claims that it was a spontaneous demonstration, even though there is clear evidence that there was no demonstration.

Dante pretends all of this is because Fox is racist.

Obama needs to be held to account for his lack of leadership, call it politicizing if you want

A terrorist attack on the US Consulate is somehow evidence of a lack of leadership? People won't buy that shit. Only the Con-Base eats that shit

Hey I thought GM was alive and Osama was dead. Wait wait wasn't that all that chest thumping was about?

And what no one wants to talk about is that the last drone attack that Obama ordered was for the second in command of AQ.

And guess what. He was Libyan AQ. And do you want more? The leader of the attack was AQ released from Gitmo.

And?

Whopsies. AQ has never been dead.

Sufyan Ben Qumu, Former Gitmo Detainee Released by Pres. Bush, Led Attack on U.S. Embassy in Libya?

Thanks for confirming the timeline I laid out, all you left out was the part where you think this is because Fox is racist.

FAIL.

The issue is not Romney. The issue is that you only gave the Ambassador security that were two Libyan militias.

You can't spin this.

Romney Criticizes Administration's Response
Romney's comment, apparently referring to the embassy statement, was sent to The New York Times about 10:10 p.m., originally embargoed until midnight. The embargo was lifted at 10:24 p.m.

"I'm outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi. It's disgraceful that the Obama administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks."

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz politicizing a terrorist attack.

No one is really paying attention. People like you have turned people off to the MSM.

 

[Vel]

who was Romney responding too?

The statement put out by the embassy in Egypt.

Embassy/Consulate. Stop acting like an idiot.

I know this is hard for you but the embassy in Egypt is a different place from the consulate in Libya. They do have something in common though. Neither seem to be protected by the U.S. government.

I know this may be difficult for you, but most rational people would know I meant Embassy when I wrote Consulate. This isn't a Junior High School history class.

Attacking a simple error while not addressing the issue was hilarious. Now about the delusion that people know or care about Libya ..

To be fair, Dante thinks Africa is a country, he actually has no idea that Libya is not in Egypt.

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

It's a losing issue for using in persuading the American electorate to choose Smarmy Romney or Smug Obama. Moe along children. No one really cares. We have too many issue at home


zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

To be fair, attacking Dante will not win Romney a single vote., thanks for playing


now move along

no one really cares

 

[Vel]

I wonder if any of these guys were complicit in the attack on our consulate?
*************************************************************

600 Pro-al Qaeda Militants Released from Libyan Prison
Saturday, August 27, 2011
However, in the aftermath of Gaddafi’s ouster, U.S.-backed rebels released as many as 600 pro-al Qaeda militants held in Tripoli’s Abu Salim prison. Gaddafi imprisoned thousands of suspected pro-al Qaeda militants after the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq which had stoked Islamic radicalization in Libya.

600 Pro-al Qaeda Militants Released from Libyan Prison | From the Left


Apparently, President Obama failed to consider this as part of the outcome of ousting Moammar Gaddafi from power.

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

Poor Quantum Blowhard, stuck on the details of a foreign fiasco that not many people in the street can converse on. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz losing battle


now move along

no one cares

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

If you're tuning in late here's the scoop

Romney and the GOP have wet their collective panties over controlling the news cycle with tales about Libya. Yet no one really cares. Too many issues at home.

thank you for stopping by. Nothing much here. Head over to The Flame Zone. Lots of fun there.

I think your intelligent agencies Freaking blow dead bears

What do you think when this hit was going to down and these dudes were putting up their plans on Facebook?
