The Good News: Valerie Jarrett made it back from Martha's Vineyard alive, thanks in large part to her security detail of highly trained professionals. The Bad News: Ambassador Stevens and three other Americans were killed by Islamic Fundamentalists in Benghazi, primarily because the Obama State Department denied their requests for security.
These are some of the most important facts to emerge from the Vice Presidential Debate, Joe Biden is like a weird relative; a relative you don't want to leave alone with children, and that he and President Obama received no requests for security from the diplomatic delegation in Libya, despite the sworn testimony of two former security professionals who requested the security.
Some of us who know the president only attended less than half of his intel-briefings wonder if someone might have mentioned the multiple attacks on the diplomatic teams in Benghazi during one of the no show briefings.
During the debate, Biden assured the country and the world, he only speaks for himself and the president, and that they received no such requests.
"We weren't told they wanted more security. We did not know they wanted more security there."
Unfortunately, the State Department has acknowledged the receipt of multiple requests for increased security. The State Department officials who have testified before the House Oversight Committee's panel have not said they relayed the requests to the president; however, Eric Nordstrom top regional security officer in Libya last summer said,
"In those conversations, I was specifically told [by Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Charlene Lamb] ‘You cannot request an SST [Site Security Team] extension.' I determined I was told that because there would be too much political cost. We went ahead and requested it anyway."
"Too much political cost", but the death of an ambassador and three employees are only "bumps in the road." Do you think Charlene Lamb and the Obama Administration wanted to use the Libya War, Obama's War, as an icon or poster subject for the success of the Obama Foreign Policy and that having armed security would be offensive to Libyans, al-Qaeda, and Leftists in general.

Hillary has no future, now or in 2016. Bill’s been duped by O or he was just plain stupid thinking O might take debate advice from him as well as taking the fall for the embassy murders when he could just blame it all on Hillary? FR has to give up the thought that Bill or Hillary or O or Michelle or Leon Panetta have a secret plan to grab power from the other. 2012 is the year all these people’s political careers turn to dust.
Hey guys, you have to realize there are only so many Security guys to go around, so Obama had to put them where they were most needed, so he put them with Valerie Jarrett. (After all, she’s the brain behind his whole operation and he sure couldn’t afford to lose her.) And remember when he said our troops should be providing for their own health care because they knew there was danger when they signed up, so that goes for Ambassadors too. The Ambassador knew it was a dangerous job when he signed up, so if he wanted security, he should have hired it himself. (Sarcasm off)
No one could hide the lies that are rising like dead fish to the top of the Obama, Inc. cesspool; and Obama knows that. If he gets another term; it will not matter; he needs only to buy time for another twenty-five days until Election. After that; who will 'bring it to him'? Holder Justice; Hillary 'State Department': Leon Panetta? CIA? (Am still trying to figure that Gen. Petraeus 'bought' the video story??? Seems an inpossibility; if 'truth be told'.)
We would only have to watch the 'Hunger Games' begin. . .
Obamanoids are trying to run out the clock like a baseball team manager (all right, all right, Capt. Obvious, just jesting), but since Hildegarde does not intend to play in the second half, it’ll make for an interesting game in the next 4 weeks.
Obama's turn..

[end of suicide note]I made mistakes from ignorance, inexperience and overwork
I did not knowingly violate any law or standard of conduct
No one in The White House, to my knowledge, violated any law or standard of conduct, including any action in the travel officevis-a-vis the safety of our personnel at Benghazi
There was no intent to benefit any individual or specific group
TheFBIintelligence agencies lied in their report to theAGPresident
The [alternate] press is covering up the illegal benefits they received from thetravel staffKoch brothers
The GOP has lied and misrepresented its knowledge and role and covered upa prior investigationthe truth that President Obama is not to blame for BenghaziThe Ushers Office plotted to have excessive costs incurred, taking advantage of Kaki and HRC
The public will never believe the innocence of theClintonsObamas and their loyal staff
The WSJ editors lie without consequence
I was not meant for the job or the spotlight of public life in Washington. Here [the racist alternate media] ruining people is considered sport
Here's advice for Hillary's protection..
Janet Reno to ClintonHRC to Obama: "If you don't appoint me [in your second term], I'll tell the truth about Waco Benghazi."
Meantime; it is not just that 'there is a video'; but that it was being watched in 'real time'; not just by Ms. Lamb (State); but by many Gov/Embassy/State Officials; in 'real time'. Hillary; Panetta and more; had to be 'tuned in'. . .
And so, there was NO doubt, by anyone, in immediate (and the 'not so immediate') Obama, Inc., as to what was happening on the ground for those long hours when these American's were under siege. They were watching it unfold; 'live'.
Obama, Inc. response; was to 'do nothing' to help these American's. They did however; manage to find a 'cover story' for their determinedly AWOL leadership. They ordered up a 'scapegoat' that could carry them until at least, the end of Election Day.
Whereby; if Obama 'wins'; he is home free; and with all the power necessary, to prove it. And if he does not; he will be exiled to Hawaii.

The fact is that Hillary is the incompetent fool.”
I do believe that it was Hillary who initially recommended that the Keystone pipeline from Canada to the U.S. not be built.

Oh yes she does. It's just that she leaves so many of them, that you don't believe they're fingerprints. Hillary's Matrix is MADE out of her fingerprints. Her solution to hiding a needle in a haystack, is to make a stack of needles and put a sign in front of it that says "haystack."
FlingWingFlyer that last post was directed at the absurdity of liberal’s insane bazaar logic of trying to place the blame of what happened in Benghazi on Romney/Ryan.
Folks I hate to tell you this but Hill is worn out and tired, Bill is being dragged around looking like death warmed over stumping for BHB. The Clinton machine as it were is dead. They are politically impotent.
“They are politically impotent.”
I don’t think the former “Carouser-in-Chief” cares as long as it’s not the “other” kind of impotent.
You put the sequence of events and the resulting consequences together perfectly. These people are just plain evil. All of them. After all of this unfolded and knowing exactly what happened, Obama went off to Vegas. Think about that.
"Hmmmm....why won't she pick up?"
