Republicans want a tempest in a teapot...

Facts are,.. early assumptions were that it was related to a simultaneous event occurring in Egypt...
This would be a reasonable assumption... as intel came in, it became clear that it wasn't...

What you tell people privately, and what you announce in a public statement as a representative of your government, can differ over any given time period.

Nothing about this would have changed anything on the ground...

The stated goal here,.. was to hurt Hillary's chances.
Nothing more...
Here's where McCarthy got a little too full of himself, and spilled the beans,... on Fox of of all places...

Yep, McCarty was trying to sell himself, and you will take his self promotion and attach it to everyone else, I see....
However, if you look at the factual time line of the event, it was Obama who tried to save his arse, by cooking up this story based on assumptions.
I believe Hillary got caught in obama's lies, myself...

The whole thing is a tangled mess of lies, cover ups, self-serving statements and "news leaks", political finger pointing and general all around BULL S$#T.      It does do is expose a lack of leadership and sense of responsibility in the administration.     It is readily apparent that politics is more important that the lives of the people they are responsible for.   Perhaps nothing would have helped, but at least an effort could have been made.  Instead all the effort was expended on "political spin"....

Is it any wonder that we always said that when it hit the fan, the only one you could depend on was the guy next to you.

And a whole sh*t load of other things not even remotely related to this particular subject.

But it doesn't matter a doggone bit now.

She's gonna be the next President regardless.

By hook, or by crook, or by the unbelievable stupidity of the voters, I'm afraid that she's got this one in the bag.

And, astonishing as it might seem, half the country is going to celebrate.

Old chief, we sleep'n n same teepee  

Yes, what a cluster fruck.
The very scorn of the system Obama campaigned against with hop'n and change.....
Only to see him extend it!

Yes, half will celebrate prolly the most corrupt player ever to get elected on divisional motivation as to why.
Totally escaping from them is the insanity of their actions.
Celebration will be short lived as it will quickly turn to a defensive mode, with anger being their companion and misery resulting....
Life will be as such, they will watch reality TV shows to anchor them to despair......
Rinse and repeat, every couple of years.

In all honesty, it really isn't much different that coming to this sight and spewing forth personal beliefs as if they have some value and the ability to help others see the error of their ways....
It might, chances are, it won't, cuz those in opposition to me come here for the same motivation  

I think it's fair to say participation here has dwindled as folks come to see its a waste of time, and I can almost swallow that too, but I get this nagging thought that is exactly the the "power brokers " want, a subdued citizenry, so they by default, will have absolute power, and blame us for giving it to them.....
You know, sorta like how we blame the gun for the destruction it visits on us....


TUNE IN, DROP OUT........ DROP DEAD.

Vote to let someone else, do it  

And, at 4 in the morning west cost, how is your day?  

My newspaper, one of  the vast number Pro-Hilary "news" outlets, ran the headline "No smoking gun" for the Bengazi story. No surprise there.

But close analysis by those not wearing the same team jersey, shows a few thongs that are more than a little disturbing.

From WSJ

We also learn that on the day of the attack, in a 5 p.m. meeting that included Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, Mr. Obama said the U.S. should use all available resources. After that meeting, Mr. Panetta returned to the Pentagon to discuss what military resources were available. The Defense Secretary then issued an order to deploy military assets to Libya.

But nothing was sent to Benghazi, and nothing was even in route when the last two Americans were killed almost eight hours after the attacks began. The holdup seems to have been caused in part by something else we learn from this report: a 7:30 p.m. teleconference of Defense and State officials, including Mrs. Clinton.


Ostensibly they were sharing intelligence and coordinating responses. But they debated whether they needed Libya’s permission to deploy American troops to defend endangered Americans, whether Marines should wear uniforms or civilian clothes, and so on.

But this is the smoking gun. This is why she should never be president. Now I know our liberal friend Sew will say this was just a diplomatic strategy. That what you say in public is not what you say in private sometimes if you want to get things done, I agree with that at times, I've done it and in fact I have a work situation today where I'm going to do that very same thing.

But this is different and heres why. This attack was just another in a long line of attacks from groups with the same belief system driving them. We had another one yesterday in Turkey, we had one a couple weeks ago in Orlando. Obama and Clinton were / still are in denial. She lied to us when everyone knew she was lying and she stuck with that lie even when it was ridiculous to do so. She considers us expendable, useful idiots. Sew, if you were there and the narrative needed to be continued, you die.

WSJ

Mrs. Clinton referred to the video more than once in her public statements. At 10:08 p.m. on the night of the attack, she issued a public statement on Benghazi: “Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of others.” She repeated the point the next day at the State Department.

That’s not what she was saying in private. On the night of the attack, at 6:49 p.m. Washington time, Mrs. Clinton called Libya’s president to say the attack on the diplomatic compound in Benghazi was planned and that an Islamist terror group had claimed responsibility. A few hours later, she emailed her daughter that “an Al Qaeda-like group” was responsible.

The next afternoon Mrs. Clinton was even more categorical. In a phone call with the Egyptian Prime Minister, she said the Benghazi attack “had nothing to do with the film. It was a planned attack—not a protest.” She added that the Benghazi attackers were believed affiliated with al Qaeda.
