Good enough correction on your part.

I don't think the question is "what was the ambassador doing in Benghazi?" or "what was the CIA doing in Benghazi?" They were doing their jobs with the resources they were given. I expect the CIA operates out of every embassy and consulate and has some coordination with the ambassador and his staff in each of them.

The only relevant questions in my mind are "why weren't they given adequate protection?" and "why has 0bama and his administration tried to coverup the fact that this was a terrorist attack with the "video did it" hoax?

John Bolton provides some clarity on who has responsibility for foreign policy.

I really like the jiggling phone....ROFL!

Sums thinks up nicely!

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

A question just popped into my fevered brow.....

Why was the Turkish Ambassodor in such a dangerous place?

[TigersEye]

I kind of wondered that myself. It’s probably not as dangerous for him as it is for an American.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Yeah that would be true but why wouldn't he have preferred to meet him in Tripoli where the accommodations would have been more comfortable for a man of his stature....

Perhaps he had other business in Benghazi....wonder what it might of been?

[Marine_Uncle]

The point I tried to make rather poorly, is that things went wrong during an operation. The US personnel where caught in a tough situation. We know parts of the results.
I have the same desire to see the Kenyan and his goons, as well as Clinton all get fried. I was not trying to diminish the goals of the investigations now being performed.
Perhaps this time, they will not get off so easy as they did regarding the murder of boarder patrol Brian Terry, in the botched F&F scandal.

"Why was the Turkish Ambassodor in such a dangerous place?"
Certainly not for "official diplomatic purposes", or he would have went to the US Embassy in Tripoli. We are dealing with another Black Hawk down syndrome. Operations went not according to plan.

I'd like to believe that will happen. I'm afraid the press will continue to cover for him though. Stevens and the others are just collateral damage in the Forward march of the Progressive Movement.

The leaks are really starting to come out now, thanks to Hillary's and Biden's "putting the blame on Mame" (intelligence agencies being 'Mame').

Their stupid and feeble attempts at covering-up, lying, deliberately sowing confusion, shifting culpability and protecting their Lord and Master in the White House is paying big dividends to us, the supposed dummies in what they view as the lumpen masses.

Thanks to these fumbling Boobsie Twins, heretofore hidden facts are tumbling out to the public like little fruits and tiny pumpkins spilling out of a Thanksgiving cornucopia centerpiece.

Mmm, mmm, mmm......

BJ Clinton made it to his full term. No difference here. After all none of neither of these goon’s theatrics, would be seen by the collective Pravda in the same light the plumber break-in occurred at the Water Gate hotel. Fox News cannot be the only one attempting to bring out a realistic picture on what went down.

[GOPJ]

Great ping Ernest - I saw it the other day but it’s better the second time. Missed a lot the first reading.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Looks like Col Hunt is coming up shortly on the Factor....Foxnews.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Col hunt to be on the Factor this evening.

[Marine_Uncle]

He taint showed up yet... I've been keeping a careful eye on what is popping up at Fox. Another Freeper said the Colonel was supposed to be on with Billy boy at 8:00PMEST. Is not the case.
Think I will do some searches before the 9PMEST Debate starts as to who this Colonel Hunt is. Should have done it days ago.

[Marine_Uncle]

From my comments on thread #55.
Got desired answer regarding Colonel Hunt.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

I thought he didn't get enought time and o'Reily was a bit skeptical...but hunt did get his unhappiness regarding some one doing anything.

O'Reilly was more concerned with whether Obama and Hillary were aware.

Poor Interview.

[Marine_Uncle]

Thanks for the feedback. I could not prior to the pres debate or afterward doing all kinds of searches on Fox find what Bill and the Colonel discussed. Zip. I’ll simply take your word Ernest that there where no new revelations produced. Time for me to hit the sack. Do have a great upcoming day.
