Apparently President Obama can’t see Egypt and Libya from his house. On the anniversary of the worst terrorist attacks ever perpetrated on America, our embassy in Cairo and our consulate in Benghazi were attacked by violent Islamic mobs. In Cairo, they scaled the walls of our embassy, destroyed our flag, and replaced it with a black Islamic banner. In Benghazi, the armed gunmen set fire to our consulate and killed an American staff member. The Islamic radicals claim that these attacks are in protest to some film criticizing Islam. In response to this, the U.S. embassy in Cairo issued a statement that was so outrageous many of us thought it must be a satire. The embassy actually apologized to the violent mob attacking us, and it even went so far as to chastise those who use free speech to “hurt the religious feelings of Muslims.” (Funny, the current administration has no problem hurting the “religious feelings” of Catholics.)
But where is the president’s statement about this? These countries represent his much touted “Arab Spring.” How’s that Arab Spring working out for us now? Have we received an apology yet from our “friends” in the Muslim Brotherhood for the assault on our embassy?
It’s about time our president stood up for America and condemned these Islamic extremists. I realize there must be a lot on his mind these days – what with our economy’s abysmal jobless numbers and Moody’s new warning about yet another downgrade to our nation’s credit rating due to the current administration’s failure to come up with a credible deficit reduction plan. And, of course, he has a busy schedule – with all those rounds of golf, softball interviews with the “Pimp with the Limp,” and fundraising dinners with his corporate cronies. But our nation’s security should be of utmost importance to our Commander-in-chief. America can’t afford any more “leading from behind” in such a dangerous world. We already know that President Obama likes to “speak softly” to our enemies. If he doesn’t have a “big stick” to carry, maybe it’s time for him to grow one.
- Sarah Palin
Palin responded AFTER Romney called Obama out.
Thats what im talkin about!!!— thats something you will NEVER see from liberal romney— wow, this woman puts a big smile on my face— Sarah, please run in 2016
BUMP BUMP BUMP !!!
Forget it.
Sarah aint running
Didn’t say she was so there is nothing to forget.
Just commented that there is a difference between a slap across the face and a swift kick to the balls.
Consider it a tag team move.
We aint fighting each other.
I think calling Obamas response “disgusting” is pretty severe.
I think it's great since the Libtards already hate Sarah so much that her dig at Obama’s manhood will make their heads explode. Can't wait for the hissy fits in the morning.
We had uprisings in Egypt and Libya on 9/11.
Americans died and were injured.
Obo apologized.
Placemark.
She has the luxury or being a private citizen at the moment.
She came out of the stands and clocked obama good!
Lou Dobbs was having a fit because they were speaking out so strongly against Obama.
He was never the same after the Mexicans put a hit on him for opposing illegal immigration.
Voting to support Infanticide as an Illinois State Senator was pretty disgusting in my book.
Screw him and the Wookie he rode in on. I hope Sarah gets under his reptilian skin with her dissection of him.
An apt description
Romney blasted obama good on this - but it's quickly disappearing off the net - no video that I can find now works and not many are carrying the story even in print - very hard to find - they must have gotten the word from the AX man Axelrod -
But what Romney said IS available on line - you guys ever thought of doing a bit of research before opining in the negative?
It seems each outfit that IS printing his statement are all printing the same story - made to look like Romney was in the wrong to attack the little messiah on this - disgusting.

I would bet obammy has let these embassies know there is no "Stand your ground" anymore. They probably have to wait inside and hope for the best.
I cannot take satisfaction from this chaos. What I am seeing is the whole Middle East on on the verge of implosion that could turn into an explosion.
