I was always taught that leaders give their team the credit when something goes right and to take the hit when something goes wrong. Funny how that is the exact OPPOSITE of the Obama Regime's pattern.
“Benghazi under attack? Ah hell naw, I’m goin’ to bed - big day tomorrow fundraisin’. Prolly a spontaneous demonstration. G’night.”
UH OH! Hillary is going to be pissed.
The buck stops here? These guys don't have any sense of responsibility or accountability. Mistakes were made? [shrug] It's all good -- I'm completely ignorant and out-of-touch, so don't blame me!!
I think it is a lot more complicated than what the general American Public believe. Axelrod can throw Hillary under the bus and some might believe it.
But it appears Benghazi was really all about the CIA.
I am going to be watching what this former State employee has to say about it as time goes on

The question remains:
Will someone in Congress bring Petraeus to the table. The man who told Congress that the video was responsible for a protest.
Somebody should send Obama the plaque Harry Truman had on his desk, “The Buck Stops Here”, and perhaps a framed copy of the letter Eisenhower wrote ahead of time in case D-Day was a fiasco for the Allies.
She reports directly to Obumbles, because it's a Cabinet-level position (under Democrap administrations):

Cabinet status
The Ambassador to the United Nations is not a member of the United States Cabinet, but the position is frequently accorded cabinet-level rank. It held this status through the Ford, Carter, and Reagan administrations but was removed from cabinet rank by George H.W. Bush, who had previously held the position himself. It was restored under the Clinton administration. It was not a cabinet-level position under the George W. Bush administration (from 2001 to 2009), but was once again elevated under the Obama administration. Former U.N. Ambassador John R. Bolton has publicly opposed the granting of cabinet-level status to the office, stating "One, it overstates the role and importance the U.N. should have in U.S. foreign policy, second, you shouldn't have two secretaries in the same department."
Whoops, Obumbles is responsible! Nice save for yourself, Hillary!
Yo 0bama, if you did’nt know, it’s time for you to go
Too late, Assarod. America is not going to forget this.
It’s bad enough we have incompetents in the WH.
This is another insult in a long line of insults to America.
You have just succinctly defined the difference between leading and "Leading From Behind".
Axelrod was a total jerk this morning...just as jerky as Biden was in regard to the Libya Embassy attack.
In the October, 2012, issue of Vanity Fair, there is what is intended to be a gushing article on Obama. It talks a great deal about Obama playing hoops without listing the games on his official schedule. Along with revealing that Obama gets up at 7 and works out until 8:30, it tells us that Obama was intimately aware of what was going on in Libya, because Obama had made the decision to intervene “more or less on his own.” To the point that Obama was told that a U.S. navigator was missing after his plane was shot down.
Can’t have it both ways. When this administration - as it frequently does -
faces the choice between being labeled incompetently unaware or responsible for a failure that got Americans killed, they pick incompetent. But this very current article makes that harder to do.

Does New Defense Clandestine Service Spell Big Changes for Military Intelligence?
Noah O. Braymen - May 8, 2012
The Pentagon is pulling together hundreds of officers from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) to create an intelligence service called the Defense Clandestine Service (DCS). The DCS is tasked with gathering terrorist network information, weapons of mass destruction, and other rising threats. Michael Vickers, Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, and John D. Bennett, CIA counterpart leading the National Clandestine Service, arranged the various elements of the service. Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta approved their plan on Friday, April 20, 2012.
This service will be composed of both military and civilian officers, and it will work alongside the CIA. According to Rep. C. A. Ruppersberger, the top Democrat on the House intelligence committee, the DCS plans are still in progress, but it will emphasize and expand the Pentagon’s human intelligence agencies. Particularly, it will focus on gathering information through personal contact with sources, not on the interception of communications along the lines of the NSA agencies based at Fort Meade.

Guess they’re putting Hillary in her place... These Chicago goons are as charming as Biden.
I believe there is a strong link to Valerie Jarret. I’ll go further and suggest that Jarret is the real power in the ‘throne room’. She was in the action from the time her father and Mischell’s father were involved in the Chicago labor/communist scene. She is also a very devoted anti USA person with Muslim beliefs. The entire Chicago cabal needs to be thoroughly vetted, including Axelrod and his Russian parents communist and bolshevik ties.
Under the bus for zero’s gal pal val?
Did you know your name can be scrambled to say “malarkey”.
The buck stops, well, way way over there.
Don't blame me, I was out defending Big Bird.
Hey, take it up with that White chick Cutter, that's what we're paying her for.
That will teach Bill Clinton for saying I would be serving him coffee.
If you guys drop this story, I'll let you take a peek at my Columbia Transcripts.
Hillary, Hillary, Hillary, lalalalalalalala.
Now it’s down to just obama and Biden. Biden will be next to go under the bus.
Of course, the State Department could leak some of Barry's secret public documents and records he's hiding by “accident”.
