Breaking news on Benghazi: the CIA spokesman, presumably at the direction of CIA director David Petraeus, has put out this statement: "No one at any level in the CIA told anybody not to help those in need; claims to the contrary are simply inaccurate. ”
So who in the government did tell “anybody” not to help those in need? Someone decided not to send in military assets to help those Agency operators. Would the secretary of defense make such a decision on his own? No.
It would have been a presidential decision. There was presumably a rationale for such a decision. What was it? When and why—and based on whose counsel obtained in what meetings or conversations—did President Obama decide against sending in military assets to help the Americans in need?

Those guys did it —they thought they were risking a Blackhawk Down incident b4 a Presidential election, and so they forbade anyone to help.
” This is an amazing phone call from a retired Lt. Col. and Special Operations Planner for 15 years who knows the inside baseball of what goes on in the White House. He told Rush that protocol dictates that as soon as the situation room got the email about the Benghazi attack, someone marched up to the president and informed him of the attack. He says it’s a bald faced lie if they say otherwise.
He also says that it was the president who gave the order at his 5pm meeting that day to not respond to the Libya attack in progress.”
Obama had to know, and had to have rendered a decision.
I don’t know who else was in the loop, but this much is clear. Thanks for the info.
Pateaus COULD have stepped down.....NOT come out and blame a VIDEO like he did!! he is GUTLESS and has lost his soul if he had it. Working for Obama was a HUGE REDLIGHT!!
WHERE THE F@@@ IS THE MEDIA ?
Biggest cover up in recent history, people died, they are lying, the media is ignoring this
I get pissed off with a lot what this admin does like letting homosexuals and cross dressers to serve openly but this is the most I have been outraged and the media covers all of this up,
The GOP needs to call a press conference and emand on live camera right now that this admin tell the truth and oabma needs to get back to DC and start to sort this crap out.
“Why would someone who Hillary publicly called BeTrayus be in this administration in any capacity.”
For the same reason Hillary is. It’s what that insoder DC set does. The acrimony between this is theater for our consumption. Hillary and Obama said far worse things about each other, but there they are, in the same administration. They distrust and hate us far more than they do ANY political opponent of the moment.
Their disputes are about as real as a Hollywood marriage.
LOL...Wilfred Brimley at his best!
I love that movie. :)
I have asked questions on this thread but the biggest one which this media will not even cover on this issue let alone ask is where was obama, did he watch this, or did he not know and if he did not know then who gave the order to not disturb him and if hee did know where was he, did he give the order to stand down and why?
The media have ignored this totally and on purpose and we have to get this message out now on FB and other sites, call our local papers, channels, demand they tell this issue.
Amen. This is pure and simple TREASON.
“but have you considered that people’s actual lives and the lives of their families and children are also at stake here?”
Rumor has it that the SEALS also had lives and families. These actual people you speak of, who are so fearful. They took an oath, and it wasn’t a version of the “personal loyalty to the Fuhrer oath”, it was to defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign AND DOMESTIC.
If they are unwilling to stand up if our government is truly an internally murderous enterprise, they should resign and go work at the local convenience store. It’s pure cowardice, no excuses.
obama denied
people died
obama lied
Of all these last 4 years this cover up and Lbya have got my blood boiling, the media has ignored the worst incident and cover up and lies in modern history and instead one would think nothing ever happened.
I want to know where was obama during this , did he watch it, if he was not told then who said do not disturb and if he was told then he lied and why did he refuse to send help?
This is coming out drip by drip and the timing is great. The cover provided by the Leftist media has lulled zero into a false sense of security, so much so that 0bama and his henchmen have acted recklessly. Because of a compliant media, 0bama thought he had the option of using a false cover story because it might have afforded him a somewhat better political position.
I would not be surprised at all to discover that Valerie Jarrett was the only one of authority in the Situation Room and made these decisions.
Obama was AWOL, like always.
“Fry ‘em”
They play for the other team.
Let Colin lick the zero’s boots. Who cares? Not me. He’s nothing to me.
If they are unwilling to stand up if our government is truly an internally murderous enterprise, they should resign and go work at the local convenience store. It’s pure cowardice, no excuses.

Hear, hear!
If the US President refused to help, it was probably a rerun of the attack on the USS Liberty in 1967. In other words if Americans die we will cover it up if the perps are “friends”.
In 2012 it was an attack against the USA, and in 1967 against the USA and USN too that corrupt bribed politicians used to justify their $$$$, and it was by Israel. In 2012 we don’t know who benefited, except we do know in 2012 it was others and political interests and it was not for the USA Ambassador.
I care only about the USA and don’t give one flying crap about supporters of any country except the USA and USN.
My bro reminded me that Romney got the intel briefs since he became nominee.
He knows a bit, eh?
This is like watching the dark tower topple and all the orcs and goblins and trolls start to scatter.
I like the way God thinks about times like this. If you say nothing, you are an accomplice.
