Yeah. Pot usually pulls off one heck of a visual oriented statement. Sometimes a picture speaks a thousand words.

The following links are some I have set aside that help give background as this story continues to get told.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2933548/posts
“Intelligence sources tell Fox News they are convinced the deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, was directly tied to Al Qaeda — with a former Guantanamo detainee involved.
That revelation comes on the same day a top Obama administration official called last week's deadly assault a “terrorist attack” — the first time the attack has been described that way by the administration after claims it had been a “spontaneous” act.”

“Revealed: Ringleader behind ‘al-Qaeda attack that killed U.S. ambassador was former Guantanamo inmate handed over to Libya by America’”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2934133/posts
“Two days before the deadly Sept. 11 attack on Americans in Libya, three U.S. officials met pro-government militias working to provide security in the city of Benghazi.”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2932981/posts
“As information on last weeks attack on the U.S. embassy in Libya continues to be released, questions about how much the Obama administration knew and when officials knew it are piling up.”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2932681/posts
“The head of Libya's new national congress has blamed al Qaeda-linked militants for planning Tuesday's deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi, raising further questions about the motive behind the mayhem that killed four Americans.”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2932335/posts
“Mystery surrounds attack on Benghazis US consulate By Leela JACINTO the 17/09/2012 - 15:18
New reports gleaned from Libyan officials and militia commanders suggest that contrary to earlier accounts, last week's deadly attack apparently occurred at two different Benghazi sites in two stages.”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2933146/posts
“EDITORS’ NOTE: According to a source close to Breitbart News and high up in the intelligence community, the Obama administration's policy following Muammar Gaddafi's death has been to keep a “low profile” during a chaotic time.
For this reason, according to the source, American Marines were not stationed at the U.S. embassy in Tripoli or the American mission in Benghazi, as would typically have been the case. In the spirit of a “low profile,” the administration didn't even want an American company in charge of private security. Blue Mountain, the British firm the State Department hired, was willing to abide by the “no bullets” Rules of Engagement (ROE), so were a logical fit for the contract. These sub-standard protections for American diplomats were signed by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the ROE.”

Lol, I should shut up! Today was a very good day for me.
I can remember a time when posted graphics were a fraction of what they are now, remember? I seldom get the urge to create anymore because animations take time and the excitement has often passed.

I guess we all do, I’m guilty as well. There are so many graphics being posted now. We all need to be nicer to each other instead of all the bickering, but we are all worried about the election and our nerves are frayed.

I'm still viewing the three and a half hour HR committee meeting by Issa, on questions directed at the DOJ's Inspector General on the issues revolving around the Fast and Furious as to IF, any further Congressional investigations should be directed at the DOJ, should be investigated.
To often. Many take what some go to beyond the norm measure to provide for the over all continuity and flow at forum such as this, take for granted. I yet to see where your artistic responses have in the least been outside the envelop as what we might expect from such a forum. Likewise. Ernie. Keeps plugging away at some very important issues of our times. Mainly the issues on the false acceptance to anthropological global warming issues, among other things.
I stand at attention and salute not only you two but the hundreds of long time serious contributors to this site on so many issues that have surfaced over the many years since I have been a part of it, and before.
Heheh. Yea Pot. Some seem to have a few words to produce. However, others, within their expertise equally contribute at this site.
Do both have a great upcoming day. I have to get back to the last thirty minutes of the House of Rep committee meeting chaired by Darryl Issa.
No. There has been no significant "gotchas" brought out by other side. That being the socialist creeps on the left, nor the mostly honorable representatives on the right.
The whole three hours has been rather subdued.

Hang in there Freeper. Your comments dictate your ability to last and endure the long haul. America still has so much wealth, so much industrial and other sector within the vast variant sectors of money wealth, and in the government institutions we often take for granted based on our founding fathers, in their God given wisdom, to perhaps make a come back, literally.
I'll leave you with that thought. I really want to get back to the conclusion level of the House hearing being chaired by Issa on the fast and furious findings. Hang in there.

Carter is Obama. Obama is Carter. 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.

As Clint noted, the Empty Chair improved by codetoad:
It is past time to fire Barack and his empty chair and have both of them hit the road back to Chicago!
Thanks to RushIsMyTeddyBear and Focault's Pendulum and for finding these morphing graphic art realities
