What Obama Did on September 11, 2012
American Thinker ^ | 05/04/2014 | Jack Cashill

Posted on 05/05/2014 6:50:45 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Last week, former National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor admitted to Fox News’s Bret Baer that President Barack Obama was not in the White House situation room on the night of September 11, 2012. That was the night -- "Dude, this was like two years ago” -- in which Islamic terrorists killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans in Benghazi.

This admission was a long time coming, in part because mainstream media reporters refrained from asking. In fact, it was not until May 19, 2013, eight months after the attack, that a newsman asked a White House spokesman what Obama did that night. The newsman was Chris Wallace of Fox News. “The ambassador goes missing, ends up the first ambassador in more than thirty years is killed. Four Americans, including the ambassador, are killed. Dozens of Americans are in jeopardy,” asked Wallace of Dan Pfeiffer, a senior adviser to the president. “Where was he? What did he do? How did he respond?” The crafty Pfeiffer would not even acknowledge whether Obama was in the situation room.

As Wallace knew, Obama and his advisers planned military strategy in the situation room. They planned political strategy upstairs in the family quarters. If Pfeiffer was savvy enough to duck that question, Vietor apparently was not. His answer confirms my own suspicions about where Obama was and what he did that evening. As the evidence attests, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton played a critical role in this dumb show.

Even had that day not been September 11, there would have been cause for alarm in Washington. The threat to the American consulate in Benghazi had been obvious since at least 6 a.m. Washington time.

High as a kite is my best guess.

The White House choom room.

He (it) didn’t even bother to vote “present”.

The yellow-belly lilly-livered POS Quota boy isn’t worth the fly feces which currently drape his little girl bod.

The travesty known as the “regime” will expire. What we do after is interesting to me.

Obama mocked Mitt Romney’s truthful statement that 47% of Americans will not vote for a Republican.

Okay. It is that bad. I get it.

My hope is that even ignorant liberals will decide enough is enough. That they will stay home and smoke pot instead of vote.

Or not.

What Obama did on the night of Sept. 11 was decide that his political career was much more important than the lives of 4 (could’ve been many more if not for former SEALs) Americans serving their country in Libya.

IMO, people who voted for this piece of human waste also have blood on their hands.....

‘Decision-making’ is NOT a forte with Liberals.

“O” does not want HIS fingerprints on any act or policy that requires decisiveness... and he is certainly afraid of his own shadow where this kind of action is required...like ALL Liberals.

How could anyone have the least expectation that, ALL AT ONCE and in a critical situation like this, "O" would defy his OWN record of cowardice and incompetence... would miraculously and instantaneously become a man with leadership chops, a man with the spine and strength of character to master the moment and make a decision?

Hillary said she called him later in the evening to bring him up to date and get his take on it.

Obama’s job is to look cool and to read a teleprompter. Supervising a terrorist attack is not something he would do and it seems that everyone in the administration understands that.

Ditto. At the very least, reporters should ask if he or Hillary had any alcohol that night. My guess is one or both were drunk and unavailable.

And you believe the visitor logs? I think as this article states, he was just staying as far away from the Situation Room as possible... heave forbid that he be asked to make a leadership decision... or have to watch the terrorist attack unfold in real time via the video feed from the drone.

No, this was definitely a spontaneous riot or aggrieved Muslims because of a video... Obama and Hillary say so. /s

Incapacited in some way. Otherwise, there would have been plenty of evidence (photos) he was there, doing the work of The Presidency.

Not all libs are ignorant; they just need some help from us to see they've got lower-hold tickets on the Titanic and now's the time to cash them in for a refund.

Hard to hold many of them accountable; they were dead.
