reuters ^

Posted on 10/23/2012 6:40:05 PM PDT by Perdogg

Officials at the White House and State Department were advised two hours after attackers assaulted the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, on September 11 that an Islamic militant group had claimed credit for the attack, official emails show.

The emails, obtained by Reuters from government sources not connected with U.S. spy agencies or the State Department and who requested anonymity, specifically mention that the Libyan group called Ansar al-Sharia had asserted responsibility for the attacks.

They let those four people die, put up commercials in foreign countries to apologize for our 1st amendment, go to the UN and blame some crackpot film maker (and then detain him), then state in a debate (Biden) that the White House knew nothing.

I sincerely hope, that if Romney wins, oh so quietly a case is built that puts some of these people in prison, and disgraces the Democrats and media so badly that in the words of Conan (in terms of what he found satisfactory): "To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women."

I'm tired of putting up with these people and those who support them.

A poster here brought up that maybe they were reluctant to send military people in because of all those surface to air missiles that are missing that could have taken them out.

that would have been a disaster for Obama.

LOL! This is payback from the intelligence community for Obama/Biden's attempt to throw them under the bus over Benghazi.

I think you are right...not within the same rhelm, but I have a brother, my Big Bro, in the intel community...He can't tell me much, and I get that, but I asked him about a year ago if we were going to be okay. He told me yes, we've got this...in that way only a big brother can say that makes you feel things are going to be okay.

This adds to that.

Correct me if I’m wrong: doesn’t Romney now receive national security briefings? If he knew this news was going to break, that would explain why he wasn’t more forceful when the subject of Libya came up.

A perfect case for NOT voting early — even with the threat of our “toilets backing up”. Also, release the video maker for time served and NO MORE videos.

Will America want to elect a President who is going to be impeached shortly after election day?

This is gonna require Obama address the nation IMHO

Too late. He's lied too often and too much.

This news was saved for today. The day AFTER LAST NIGHT'S DEBATE.

“The message continued: “Ambassador Stevens, who is currently in Benghazi, and four ... personnel are in the compound safe haven. The 17th of February militia is providing security support.””

Um, I thought it was just three people; Stevens, Smith and Ubben.

Let this be a lesson:

Do not LIE and BLAME the intelligence agency for your own personal screw up.
