Who is responsible for the (nearly non) defense of the place?

They’re just scapegoats. I’m pretty sure the culprit or culprits is in this group: Hillary Clinton, Valerie Jarrett, Barack Obama.

Oddly enough, Ambassador Stevens and the other three Americans who were murdered that night were "real people, with real careers, real lives" too..

Who will speak for them?

In government speak, “everyone is responsible for security” which translates to “no one person is accountable for anything”. Once you learn this, you will do much better in the collective.

The TEA Party and Sarah Palin are to blame. Everyone knows that.

Those creepy@$$ Marxist boneheads in Washington haven’t got a clue what is going on in the world. Like many of us, they wake up every morning and turn on FOX news to see what’s going on. Elections do have consequences. We’ve put a bunch of totally brain dead morons in charge of running what used to be the greatest country in the world. They are clueless.

What about the “totality of the careers” of the four Americans who died at Benghazi? There has been NO JUSTICE for their families in this case. None whatsoever.

0bama has shown on interest in apprehending the attackers, either. He obviously doesn't want them taken into custody because he's afraid they'll blow the cover off his cover-up, BIG TIME. They know something 0bama doesn't want US to find out!

Eggzackly.

AFAIK, no Americans, in the State Department or anywhere else, are responsible for the attack.

Somebody is responsible for the failure to provide proper defenses, and, far more importantly, somebody is responsible for the decision to deny eager American forces the chance to come to their defense.

How pathetic that one would have to accept the imprimatur of the notorious traitor John F. Kerry as a precondition of continued employment. I'd hang myself first.





America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
