"Neither the president nor anyone in the White House denied any requests for assistance in Benghazi," National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor told Yahoo News by email.

And the CIA has denied that anyone in its chain of command rejected requests for help from the besieged Americans.

Well, the personnel on the ground would have made the request through either the WH or CIA. There are only 2 conclusions to be made from those statements.

1 - No request for assistance was ever made. That's highly unlikely.

2 - A massive and blatantly obvious lie/cover up is in effect.

“Neither the president nor anyone in the White House denied any requests for assistance in Benghazi,”

Obama denied to hear requests.

I’d have to go with #2. Lying is a way of everyday life for Obama and his henchmen...

I think ONE of the men who died was sent to help. The other two left the CIA annex to help at the Embassy on their own volition, and against orders. There can be NO doubt that security at the Embassy was willfully drawn-down prior to the attack, however. This would be done in advance of a staged hostage-taking of Stevens.

I want to know more about the lasing of an enemy mortar site, though.. If firing upon them was ignored or orders given not to do so.

HEADLINES : ( Saturday October 27th 2012 ) Today's new revelation of news coming out from the official WHITE HOUSE statement....

The White House on Saturday flatly denied that President Barack Obama withheld requests for help from the besieged American compound in Benghazi, Libya, as it came under on attack by suspected terrorists on September 11th.



So which is it Joe Biden ? White House ? did you not know ? as Joe Biden mentioned in the 2nd debate ? or did you in fact know as proof from your statement today that you deny that Obama DID NOT deny requests for help for those in the Benghazi attack... which is it ? you did not know ? or did in fact know ?

Well, notice how all these spokespeople always answer for him, rather than him answering, himself, despite his having multiple opportunities to do so. This allows him later, when the facts come out, to deny that he authorized anyone to make such a statement.

Any of his staff who doesn’t retain some kind of evidence as to what they may have been told to do is a complete idiot.

Then WHO denied assistance?
Anyone with a brain cell knows the people under attack being murdered would have asked for help.
So.
Who was asked?
What was the answer given? (No assistance)
Why was that answer given?
Who is going to jail for it?

3. Although he did not DENY, he did not GRANT.

Only the President, Commander in Chief, may authorize conducting an armed activity within the borders of a sovereign nation with which we are not (yet) at war. Refusal to respond to requests for aid, means the request is denied.

Transcript: Presidential debate, Oct. 22, 2012

OBAMA - Now with respect to Libya, as I indicated in the last debate, when we received that phone call, I immediately made sure that, number one, that we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm's way

So was he lying then, or is he lying NOW?

They’ve had all this time to scrub anything clean and creat any version they want.

Keep denying, more people will no longer buy it.

"Neither the president nor anyone in the White House denied any requests for assistance in Benghazi," National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor told Yahoo News by email.

Here's the thing: Even if no request for aide was sent out, the Administration, including the President, knew they were in trouble and were under attack. A request for aide should not have been necessary. Aide should have been sent, regardless of requests. It is the Presidents job to assess situations such as Benghazi and act accordingly. Trying to fob it off as no request for aide is BS. They were watching a real time video and knew what had to be done, yet they(bozo)refused to do it. Bozo and the boys are guilty of murdering 4 Americans.

So these folks were rogue Americans in Benghazi with no bosses in DC? Haha

From the Petraeus response, I took it that these folks were not working for the CIA. So who were these folks working for? Was this intelligence operation under direct supervision of the Director of Intelligence (whatever he’s called) at the White House? Did no one who the POTUS hired ask the POTUS to give permission to aid these Americans? Is the POTUS that incompetent at hiring people who know how things work? Does no one at the White House have a conscience? We need to sweep the evil out of DC.

Congress needs to find out who was controlling this operation at the safe house. Follow the money. Will these dead contractors receive an insurance pay out since they were told not to run into the fire?

Interesting. CIA says it did not deny more help.
State Department says it did not deny help.
DOD says it did not deny help.

And now the White House says it did not deny help.

Someone or several folks are lying.
My bet is that it is the White House who is lying

Well, there’s a third option, Valerie Jarrett could be calling the shots from outside the White House, where ever she is.

Is there some kind of rule that you can’t quit your job as President? Obama has to know he looks like PeeWee Herman’s not very bright brother. He asked for this job. He spent a lot of time, money and effort to become the President. But he doesn’t want to do the job? He doesn’t want to make the hard calls? Then he should quit. He’s got enough money now to have a great retirement for decades. I’m sure Bill Maher and that idiot woman from “sex with me is a pity”, could give him some money. And I’m sure he could find something to do to keep busy. He could volunteer at the animal shelter to help make up for those dogs he ate. He could sit in a bar and give legal advice to drunks. The world is his oyster now! He just needs to resign as President and go find that oyster and open it up and reach inside and grab that pearl that’s waiting for him! The pearl may look like a black garbage bag, but who wants a racist white pearl anyway.

A suggestion/warning for all ambassadors/embassy staff posted in dangerous areas.

Don’t depend on help from POTUS, SOD, SOS or the CIA! They will not respond to any SOS’s. Then they will deny that you asked for help.

Buy or rent an Iridium Sat Phone and put Fox News Desk, Rush, Drudge, Rush and Free Republic on your speed dial, to text or call when you don’t want to be slaughtered and need help.

That way the liars of this administration in charge of denying protection for you, can’t deny that you asked for help.

Don’t waste your remaining time contacting ABCNNBCBS! They are too busy protecting Obozo and his liars while looking for binder and racism lies save the butt of the traitor and his fellow thugs!

If you read the comments after the article, it’s clear the Yahoo readers know the truth.
