No, he did less than nothing.

He immediately bashed Romney for pointing it out and then said it was a youtube video, showing how wrong Romney had been. Political points are all that mattered. He knew it was a lie when he said it, but politics too priority.

Sure Obama did something. He jumped right into action and helped cover for the acts of terrorists. He had to cover for his peeps.

They spent months denying them additional security. Their first reaction after they watched this unfold was to bash Romney for pointing it out first, blaming a Youtube video to prove Romney was wrong. Politics too priority. Every day for 2 weeks they doubled down on the story. Their blaming the video likely sparked riots in Muslim countries, governments around the world and even the UN condemned free speech, even Obama at the UN condemned those who blasphemed Islam. ONLY later did they admit there was no protest over a video, only later did they admit it was a planned and coordinated terrorist attack. Then they tried to pretend none of this happened, that they NEVER blamed a video, then they accused Romney of making this a issue. Then Obama jokes on late night TV that it was “not optimal”. DID I MISS ANYTHING??

We need Zippo to be pressured to let Petraeus speak entirely freely before a closed-door session of the House Oversight Committee. If the facts warrant impeachment, let the chips fall where they may.

Obama didn't "do nothing."

He arrested an innocent man on a trumped up parole violation just to protect himself. That man is still sitting in jail.

What COULD he do.?.. He knew it was coming from the two attacks that happened a few hours and another couple days earlier..

He pulled some of the security and refused more asked for..
It was PLANNED.. it was no accident.. not incompetence..

What do you expect when you place an in your face Marxist as President of the United States.?.
It was not Obamas “fault” it was the American voters fault..
America just got what it asked for.. NO!.. begged for..

Obama seems to be punishment for the domestic murder of more than 75,000,000 babies..
and so many more moral crimes (that we know about) its hard to count them all..
Only God knows the smoky room crimes committed in secret..
Pretty much like the Clintoons on steroids..

America is on **NOTICE**, shape up or worse can happen..
Americas malls, sports stadiums and even cites have not been NUKED YET..
Stay asleep and it WILL HAPPEN..

The “Progressives” murdered hundreds of millions last century they are hoping for BILLIONS this century..
OH! the proegressives are presently intotal charge in Washington D.C...
And in case you’ve been asleep,, some of them are REPUBLICANS..

Just remember this if you’re an American citizen, even a federal government employee, and all of a sudden you find your @$$ in a sling, don’t bother calling the U.S. Government for help because they ain’t coming. Try the U.N. They might at least pass a resolution for you.

Obama and Hillary both have blood on their hands.

In most other countries, that would instantly be enough to end their political careers. But when you have a compliant, dis-interested media on your side ....

You are absolutely correct about the traitor on all points! But the scariest part is that almost half the voters want this traitor to continue for four more years!

The real reason behind Benghazigate

Was Obama gun-walking arms to jihadists?

The evidence suggests that the Obama administration has not simply been engaging, legitimating, enriching and emboldening Islamists who have taken over or are ascendant in much of the Middle East. Starting in March 2011, when American diplomat J. Christopher Stevens was designated the liaison to the “opposition” in Libya, the Obama administration has been arming them, including jihadists like Abdelhakim Belhadj, leader of the al Qaeda franchise known as the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group.
.

It now appears that Stevens was there — on a particularly risky day, with no security to speak of and despite now copiously documented concerns about his own safety and that of his subordinates — for another priority mission: sending arms recovered from the former regime’s stocks to the “opposition” in Syria. As in Libya, the insurgents are known to include al Qaeda and other Shariah-supremacist groups, including none other than Abdelhakim Belhadj.

America has pretty much been brain washed..
Most think “democracy” is a good word.. when its nasty..
Democracy was, is and always will be Mob Rule by mobsters..

Democracy is a “Holy” word to most.. almost sacrosanct..
A word that does not appear anywhere in the United States Constitution... ON PURPOSE..


Democracy is the road to socialism. -Karl Marx

Democracy is indispensable to socialism. The goal of socialism is communism. -V.I. Lenin

The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism .-Karl Marx

And what is even worse is that we have 90% of the MSM wanting Obama for another term.

What does it tell you about our “journalists”?

Two possibilities:

1. Obama was advised the consulate was under attack by an Al-Qaeda affilliate, realized that such an affair would contradict his :Al-Qaeda is on the run" campaign claims and that reacting militarily would necessarily require him to cancel the celebrity fundraiser scheduled for Las Vegas the next day. For political reasons, he decided to cover up the truth of the matter and, thus, finesse having to make a military response.

2. Obama wasn't involved. Axelrod and/or Jarrett were in the situation room, serving in his stead. Independently, they concluded to fabricate "the video did it" cover and avoid any military action. Obama was briefed accordingly in the morning.

Take your pick.

In any event, another question remains. How did the "Innocence of Muslims" video enter the equation? Obviously, there had to be some prior knowledge of this incredibly obscure posting on You Tube. And how it might be employed in this, shall we say, puzzling capacity.

Which raises a second question: Why was the White House so familiar with this particular piece of Pallywoodian propaganda dross? Had it been spotted earlier and labelled as a possible source of trouble? Or a possible opportunity for misinformation? Or had the Obama network actually been involved in its funding, to further some other nefarious project?

Why was "The Innocence of Muslims" apparently top-of-mind in this drastic situation?
