Report on Benghazi attack cites "systemic failures" [Miami news says "no one person to blame"]
CNN ^ | December 18, 2012

Posted on 12/19/2012 2:45:32 AM PST by SoFloFreeper

- An independent review of the September 11 attacks on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi released Tuesday cited "systemic failures and leadership and management deficiencies" at the State Department.

The attacks killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens.

The failures resulted in a security plan "that was inadequate for Benghazi and grossly inadequate to deal with the attack that took place," the 39-page, unclassified version of the report concluded.

From the article:

"Despite all the criticism, the board found no U.S. government employee had engaged in misconduct or ignored responsibilities and did not recommend any individual be disciplined."

This laughable line is buried in the article...but was EMPHASIZED by the pathetic Obama worshiping Miami Florida media. See, in Miami Obama and Hillary can do NO WRONG.

In government, no one is ever singled out to blame, and thus no one is accountable. Sane old story.

#1 Enemy of the US: The Current POTUS - Emperor Obama

...What did Mel Brooks say in one of his movies...Oh, “It’s good to be the king.”

Miami news says “no one person to blame”

Harry Truman famously kept on his oval office desk at all times a small sign which said, quite succinctly, “The buck stops here.”

That was in another age, of course, and, in this later age, one suspects that if there’s any sign on Obama’s desk, it reads,”Who, me?”

The proles all knew - when they elected him to a second term - that he was the sort of character to dodge the blame for anything bad that happens, while, at the same time, studiously taking the credit for anything good.

In short, the current President of the United States is a sneak and a liar.

No one in a LIBERAL DEMOCRAT government is to blame. Remember how Bush was personally responsible for Abu Ghrab?

...if one was to go back to the embassy bombings during the clinton years...after the attacks Albright calls the Ambassador Prudence Bushnell and say’s “I had no idea your embassy was so vulnerable”, to which her reply was, “I cabled you explaining what our situation was”....again Albright’s reply was “I never received them”...SOUND FAMILIAR?

OK: Lets give the State Department a stretch and say they are not to blame. They didn’t add security when they shouldhave, but they are not to blame.

I can go along with that.

But when the attack was happening-—a 7 hour attack—men on the ground fighting for their lives—some asshole in Washington DC watching the whole thing go down ,sitting there in the sutuation room with his feet up on the desk said, Fug them, they are on their own.

THAT is the SOB that I lay the blame on.His name is Barrack HUSSEIN Obama, and he isn’t fit to wipe the shoes of the 4 men who died.

I think you're giving Obama far too much credit. He was conspicuously absent from the scene the entire time. With his history of drug and alcohol abuse, he could have very well been zoned out in a drug induced stupor looking at himself in the mirrors in the Oval Office.

As my FRiend, thouworm would say, "redundant ping." All these articles are worth at least skimming for their different biases and talking points which we are surely gonna hear from now until words fade away.

Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.

More likely this one:

MSM still calls US Benghazi facilities "Counsolates". Upon inspection of State Department web site for Libya, found only one, Tripoli. http://libya.usembassy.gov/

This American/Moslem partnership needs further exposure. Most likely CIA front. http://mepi.state.gov/

In other words, as Hannity noted on radio today:

Mistakes were made ... but nobody made them.
