Wasn’t this the same Obama whose partisans complained about the minutes GWB supposedly wasted on “My Pet Goat” during the 9/11 attacks? Obama wasn’t even busy reading to kids; he hit the snooze button then later went off on his planned trip to Las Vegas and the View.
Thanks for posting this. I put the editorial on my Facebook page.
I know the ONE I’m holding responsible.
Mr. President, you let them die.
We’ve lost so many on Obama and NATO’s watch in Afghanistan that it is sickening.
dummies and dopes = the obama constituency
When Obama first spoke in the Rose Garden, and I watched, my first reaction was how disengaged he seemed and how emotionless he was. I posted about it, but was not surprised. Obama only shows emotion if someone is threatening or attaching him, personally. However, every time I watch the video again I am struck once more about his demeanor. He hardly looked at the cameras. He kept his head down, reading notes. His voice was low...even trailing off sometimes...and it was clear that he had no belief in what he was saying.
Besides the discussion that has been had about whether he attributed the attack to Terrorists or not, and the exact words he used, he does state that he "learned of the attack" (he does not call it a demonstration) - "last night" (before he went to bed) - and we all know he went to sleep - still, it is his demeanor that is telling. It seems as though Obama was just trying to get through a task that he found distasteful to him, that he didn't want to be bothered delivering the speech, and could not surmount any real feelings that would normally be expected. I knew then he was lying about or hiding something, but we had no idea how just how much.
Of course, his supporters will just say he was being "somber" and "respectful" but that is not what I saw. I saw a man who showed absolutely no depth of concern and could have been reading the printing on side of a box of cereal for the amount of interest he had in his words. Watch it again and pay attention to his delivery.
IMO Amb. Stevens was meant to die. He was deep into the White House gun running that was another Fast & Furious, times ten. He knew too much. Was Obama, Axelrod, Hillary afraid he’d talk? Never forget Ron Brown and Vince Foster and a few others. It’s not healthy to be an insider with this gang.
I sure hope the Romney administration investigates this and prosecutes the former administration officials (if they aren’t pardoned). Not like Bush who swept Clinton stuff under the carpet and said let’s move on.
“There’s a broader lesson to be learned here,” Mr. Obama told “60 Minutes” correspondent Steve Kroft at the White House. “And I — you know, Governor Romney seems to have a tendency to shoot first and aim later. And as president, one of the things I’ve learned is you can’t do that. That, you know, it’s important for you to make sure that the statements that you make are backed up by the facts. And that you’ve thought through the ramifications before you make ‘em.”
“Mission Accomplished!”
Who denied their request for assistance, and why?
The major TV networks are ignoring this story, but now, as the local newspapers are printing it, the local TV stations will begin to carry it.
The story will overwhelm the abccbsnbccnn cabal and they will cover it if only to protect their own asses.
barry is as cooked as the dog that he ate.
A similar situation happened many years ago with historic reactions.
“this very night, before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times.” ...
Jesus forgave Peter but I am not forgiving or forgetting the White House or the SOBs in MSM!
My personal view is Victoria Jarret, as she did with the OSAMA event, told ZERO” do nothing”!
Mr. President, who let them die?
I wish all those attending his rallies would hold up signs asking this question. Since the MSM won’t ask, we the people must.
I’d love to see someone show up at a Zero campaign stop with a large sign reading, “Murderer! You let them die!”
More than a month and a half later we are still waiting for someone on our side to claim responsibility for the failure to defend.
You had an ambassador and communication professional (Smith) who were guarded by the ‘February 17th Martyrs Brigade’.
Were they trafficking heavy arms to Syria? Probably. We’re they doing something hinky? Definitely.
Was what they were doing likely the province of the CIA? Most definitely.
Had people, including Stevens, raised alarm bells about the lack of security? Yup!
Was the CIA looking in on outright incompetence, while literally within earshot of rifle fire? Yes!
This all displays Obama’s ideology, long held paranoia and bias world view. I’m sure Obama and his people thought what Steven’s was doing was sexy, because it was risky. Of coarse, a leftist can’t trust the CIA, right? The CIA killed Che, Obama’s hero, Obama is the self styled Che of the new Islamic caliphate.
Again, you can’t trust the CIA, that is until your getting your ass shot off in a third world hell hole and your leftist party friends leave you for dead.
Stevens and Smith were expendable to Obama, but they weren’t expendable to Woods and Doherty.
