CBS story: http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-202_162-57511043/assault-on-u.s-consulate-in-benghazi-leaves-4-dead-including-u.s-ambassador-j-christopher-stevens/?tag=stack
CBS story quote, about half-way down: “He said Stevens, 52, and other officials were moved to a second building - deemed safer - after the initial wave of protests at the consulate compound. According to al-Sharef, members of the Libyan security team seem to have indicated to the protesters the building to which the American officials had been relocated, and that building then came under attack.”
Both are Traitor Losers who hate America!
Jimmy Carter's presidency was doomed by the Iranian hostage crisis after the US embassy in Tehran was stormed by Islamist extremists following the Iranian revolution.
A year after the 52 Americans were taken hostage, Carter lost the 1980 election. The hostages were released just as President Ronald Reagan, who defeated Carter, was sworn in.
Thanks to RushIsMyTeddyBear and Focaulut's Pendulum and for these graphic art realities!
“I guess all that foreign policy stuff the Dems of neen touting went down the toilet yesterday. Rommney ought to be all over it.”
All the leftist freaks are talking about and ridiculing today is what little Romney HAS said about it. Bashing him for politicizing this, etc.
He should be filibustering ALL DAY LONG about it, but I’m guessing his handlers are telling him not to give his domestic enemies more ammunition.
Or as nuconvert tells us, wait for more info to come out, the media might be telling us the truth. Right.
Tin Foil hat time.
We know 0bama’s good buddies Bernadette Dorn and Bill Ayres were instrumental in coordination with the “Arab Spring”. They have extensive contacts with the groups behind the “Arab Spring”.
One area 0bama is leading on in the polls is Foreign Policy
Is the current crises in the ME a Obama “Reichstag Fire” designed to distract attention from Obama disaster corrupt incompetence on the Economy on to an area his is wrongly assumed to be competent on?
Did the Obama team assume a crises in foreign policy would generate a “Rally to flag” effect and help 0 in the election?
I know, it sounds utterly insane but when you know the people around Obama, it is not so far fetched. These people really are as amoral and political corrupt as this.
wow... suffocated my rear exhaust valve
Good gravy!
How many more of our people could be targeted for assassination by their own “guards”?
“It’s my understanding that the State Dept has leaned heavily Left for some time.”
Yes.
“I would imagine this ambassador that was killed was strongly sympathetic with this administration’s policies regarding their approach to Islam and the Mideast.”
He was special envoy to the Libyan rebels. He said he was proud of taking part in their revolution. Looks like they turned on him.
“So now I wonder will other Lefties in the State dept. possibly reconsider their ideology for the sake of their own survival?”
I doubt it. They won’t reconsider the ideology, they’ll just seek to transfer to safer desks in Foggy Bottom. Hire some new young idealists and they can do the dying.
“Obama considers them expendable.”
The answer to this is clearly YES.
Well, it is hard to breath when your guts are hanging out your back. /s
So it was pre-meditated the same way using the flimsy film as an excuse was pre-meditated.
I forgot about that. Bad timing?
Does anyone have on-hand how many billions of dollars we give Egypt and Libya every year?
No, standard operating procedure to skip intelligenced briefings.
CBS: Libyan security team fingered US ambassador to be killed
The press is the enemy of our Republic. And I read somewhere that nearly all the press people pay NO income taxes, or they are cheating on their income taxes. PRESS PEOPLE ===PAY YOUR TAXES ! You will be turned in!
Oops, someone at CBS is going to get Joe the Plumber’d.
My guess?
ZERO!
Can't wait to read “Obama’s Rules of Engagement” that the Marines were forced to live with.
Does the State Department even allow them to load their weapons?
Or wait for more info to come out, you can’t trust the media or a blog, especially in a situation like this.
