It really shouldn't come as a surprise. Is there any difference in how they handled the "Fast & Furious" debacle?
This is a group of people who believe since they have the Main Stream Media in their back pockets that they can pretty much put out any story they want...no matter how unbelievable...and their buddies at NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN and most of the nation's newspapers will cover for them.
Where is the "outrage" from all of these news outlets over the line of bullshit that they were given?
A handful of them, like Anderson Cooper, spoke out about this. Most, like Rachel Madcow, aren't going to take Obama to task for making up the protester story. There are those who will cover for them no matter what happens. I believe that all too many of them knowingly reported lies and can cover themselves by saying they only reported what the White House told them. That is all some of them have done since day one. It's the Obama administration that has explaining to do, although don't expect headlines calling him up on the lies that they've been feeding everyone.
The claim that their misleading and outright false statement came through intel has been debunked. I don't think Obama is capable of saying anything negative about radical Muslims, so he'd rather risk getting caught in lies than admitting terrorists planned this for some time.
It demonstrates several things. First, that Obama believes his own lies regarding al Qaeda being defeated. Second, it is clear that this administration did not heed the warnings of this impending attack. Even if they didn't know the specific target, there had been many attacks and threats in Libya and the entire region. It should have been relatively easy to stay ahead of them, but there was no attempt. Obama was too busy making the talk show circuit to brag about killing Osama and saving GM.
He didn't save GM. He just insured that it will remain subsized by tax payers for the good of the auto union.
And killing Osama did not destroy al Qaeda. It was merely a hit, but one they quickly recovered from. And it likely offended them, which causes them to ramp up their efforts at killing us.
I read that Obama is practicing for the next debate. I can't think of any answers he can come up with that will deflect from the lies surrounding the attack and the problems with security. You can't protect people until you admit there is a threat.
I hope Obama doesn't show up at the debate with a Biden strategy of screaming down his opponent and avoiding the tough questions. He will try and his followers will swallow whatever bullshit he decides to feed them.
I personally think that many Obama voters are seriously thinking that they will benefit from his redistribution policies. They aren't concerned with American values and traditions, only with falsely elevating themselves through the labor of others. The only people who think socialism, Marxism or communism is good are those with nothing to lose or those who believe they will hold the power after the transformation. No one wants to be pushed down to be one of the lowly peons who must beg a government for basic needs. And that is what the majority becomes.
