CBS News reports that the Obama Administration was warned before al-Qaeda attacked the Consulate in Benghazi. Al-Qaeda had posted its three top targets in Libya on its website. These targets were the Red Cross, the British, and then the Americans in Benghazi.
By July of 2012 the first two targets had already been hit. In the summer of 2012, Lieutenant Colonel Andy Wood, one of the top American security officials in Libya, warned both Ambassador Stevens and the State Department that Benghazi would be next.
The CBS revelations were dismissed as “Monday morning quarterbacking” by Secretary of State John Kerry. “Look, FDR was also warned that the Japanese were going to attack Pearl Harbor before they did,” Kerry pointed out. “But without a complete report on the day, time, and magnitude of the assault he felt there was little he could do to prepare. Yet, do we blame him today? No, he’s the hero of World War II who brought home victory. There’s still time for President Obama to be a hero. It would be premature to focus on who’s to blame for an attack on Benghazi that cost a us lot fewer casualties than Pearl Harbor did in 1941.”
In related news, the State Department rejected Senator Lindsey Graham’s (R-SC) demand that more of its employees be allowed to testify on the Benghazi attack. Department spokesperson Jen Psaki contends that “everyone is too busy to testify. The crucial work of State cannot be deferred while Congress goes on some witch hunt. The needs of the present surely outweigh the desire to revisit the past. I would’ve thought that former Secretary Clinton has already made it quite clear that anything Congress might discover now would make no difference at this late date.”

Anyone who gives serious attention to anything John Traitor Kerry says is an idiot.

This whole thing stinks. The administration is going to great lengths to hide the truth. They have done something very wrong here, and we need to find out.
"What does it matter now"
Good people died including a US Ambassador....that's all.

It is ironic that now when the Obamacare fiasco has gotten too big to ignore the media is slowly turning against Obama. I guess there is a point when a lie becomes so big you just can't cover it anymore.
That’s quite evident as Hilary will not get elected if the public knows that her promotion of the homosexual lifestyle led to the whole Benghazi tragedy that she personally has been working to cover up. I mean “WHAT DOES IT MATTER!!” Just as her little homosexual “Trice” with Dee Dee Myer was covered up, they’ve worked for over a year now to cover up why Benghazi came about in the first place: The HOMOSEXUAL Agenda. Let us not forget that the Ambassador and three others were openly homosexuals and a phony affront to radical Muslims there. The Ambassador was even stupid enough to specifically advertise for homosexuals to work within the compound! What you say? That wasn’t on TV! Gee, perhaps Hilary didn’t want you to know that since she personally picked him because he was a homosexual, and also that the terrorists first personally sodomized the Ambassador for almost an hour, and then sodomized him with bayonets to death only because he was openly homosexual and an insult to their faith. Why would Hilary put him in so much peril? Probably to legitimize homosexuality and gain political and monetary favor for her campaign. My goodness, that certainly wouldn’t look good for her presidential bid. Aw hell, “WHAT DOES IT MATTER!!”
I wonder if Al-Qaeda has to take its web site down every night for maintenance?
Got me twice in the same article. This guy is so good.
Does anyone find John Kerry credible?
Not even John Kerry does.
Benghazi ping.
Let Republicanprofessor know if you want on or off this ping list.
Because he was a male, he ticked her off, and she was fresh out of ashtrays?
Psaki - “We don’t need no stinkin’ check and balances. We have important work to do.” (translated/paraphrased)
Illegal gun-running Ambassador Stevens to Syria’s Al-Qaeda HAD to be eliminated to save the sinking the administration and DNC ass-clowns at any cost. Later Putin put a stick in bombing Syria and Admiral Lyon’s theory very possible up to the election coup!!!
Morsi comes into this scenario as well!!!
