you need to substitute Valarie Jarretts name where you now have Obamas.


Agreed. Barry was most likely sitting in the lazboy watching ESPN. Probably whacked out on some pills. Jarrett would have been calling the shots after the 4 pm meeting.

>> Counterterrorism sources and internal emails reviewed by CBS News express frustration that key responders were ready to deploy, but were not called upon to help in the attack.

“Stand down” (let them die...)

Thank you Sharyl Attkisson!

The only MSM reporter to investigate Benghazi-Gate.

CNN is sniffing at the story, I was in a coffee shop a couple of hours ago and saw a headline about it on their news ticker, and now this:

http://thelead.blogs.cnn.com/2013/05/05/benghazi-whistle-blower-hicks-internal-review-let-people-off-the-hook/?hpt=hp_t2

Perhaps the MSM clowns can be embarrassed into finally pursuing the real facts which they ought to have nailed down in Sept - Oct 2012 before a national election!

The MSM could be thinking that if they cover it now it will be a distant memory when 2014 comes around....

Fast and Furious was designed to blame Americans for guns in Mexico and help push for stricter gun laws once the dead started showing up. That wasn't suppose to get out to the public, either.

And Obama just followed through on that intent by actually SAYING it in Mexico this past week.

Keep asking yourself why they weren’t on this 4 months ago.

I know why they were not covering this before the election. The lamestream media refused to cover anything that might hurt Our Glorious Leader's re-election campaign.

I am just amazed that they are even covering it now. After all, what difference does it make now?

many reports are saying he spoke with his security advisor for just two minutes and then went to bed and to sleep.

If oabma had gone to the situation room he would have seen the attack, he was not there, nor was he there for nearly 8 hours as he wanted to be fresh for his Vegas trip in the morning,.
Also if he had been there then he would have given the stand down order, he would have known all about the attack and he would have also known much more.

What kind of a man would have just given up on those dying, those attacked, and then lied because he cared about his Vegas and election?

Quite simply the man was not doing his job, he then lied about it and got others to lie to protect him as he always does and it’s high time our side get some balls and not let him get away with this like he got away with Egypt, Libya and the war he caused, fast and furious, death of a border agent , debt, and the military which is certainly going down fast and not in a sexual way either.

Just watched opening of CBS news for first time in 10 years, not one word about this story. So predictable.

The media in this country is a lost cause. Unredeemable.

Slipped it in between a story on sex abuse in military and white supremacist terrorist arrest. I need to take a shower after watching .

The MSM is throwing in 100% with this Marxist usurper. They had better hope he is successful in overthrowing the Republic because I guarantee that millions of Americans will not forget their perfidy.

Pat Caddell called it. Do you believe it yet?

The MSM are enemies of the people!

If the U.S. couldn't find assets to respond in the 7 HOURS BETWEEN THE ATTACK ON THE CONSULATE AND THE ATTACK ON THE ANNEX (WHERE DOHERTY AND WOODS DIED), THEN.. We are all in danger.

General Ham Admiral Gaouette Relieved Of Duty
http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-868910

Oh we had assets and these two guys were relieved of duty because they did not want to stand down and let our people die during the attack .


Our people died because THEY GAVE ORDERS not to go in and help them


0 and Hitlery are totally responsible for their deaths and their lack of support . The question is ....What were they trying to hide that they would refuse to send help and relieve people of duty in an attempt to cover it up ?

I think that in addition to all the other dereliction of duty, Obama had already started cocktail hour by the time the attack started.

He demonstrates all the symptoms of an alcoholic. Long periods of unaccounted for time, inability to make morning meetings. Heck, he couldn’t even muster to attend morning intel briefings.

Yep, he just went to bed and slept it off.

It’s buried in a list of stories on the “Politics” link on CNN. About 40 other stories were given higher priority, including honey bees, Michael Jackson, a shark bite victim and an alleged cure for grey hair. The Communist News Network is on the top of its game.

I really hope Issa takes strong control of these hearings tomorrow and tells Elijah Cummings to STFU when he tries to cover for Bozo and Hitlery. Just let Trey Gowdy and Jason Chaffetz go and they will get as much out of these witnesses as possible. I don’t have much hope that anything substantive will come out of all this that will severely damage Obama and Clinton, but maybe we will be surprised. As usual, I’m expecting the worst and hoping for the best!

Was Beyonce and JZ in the situation room?

Maybe they were the ones making the calls.

Maybe Obama was just innocently snorting coke in the Lincoln bedroom during this snafu.
