The SEALs will NOT stand down until there is justice. obama has gotten too many of them killed. Many believe it was on purpose. Everyone knows obama has a personal grudge against the SEALS. Well, the feeling is mutual.


Agree. Hope they drip, drip, info, and then paint him for the justice he deserves. Leaving office disgraced, and if possible criminal proceedings.

This has Clinton written all over it. The minute Panetta got involved it no longer became a State issue which absolved Clinton. Patreaus said it wasn’t CIA which means this came directly from the White House.

Someone in the White House set something up and CIA and State didn’t want their names on this. Only thing saving Obama is the MSM. We are talking prison sentences here and at worse someone in the administration is a traitor and let Americans die.

Best story ever and the media is spiking it.

Not quick enough though. Sitting on pins and needles waiting for Our Representatives to tell us what they are doing about this.

Where are they? What's happening? Thats what I would like to know.

Others can tell you more but I remember being a young Marine and got a night op demonstration of one of these bad ass beasts....death from above is far too lame a description...before that I had only been a passenger on several C130s...that night I got a whole new respect.

AC130 Spectre is capable of, from mini-guns to 105mm computer fired howitzers to 30mm Vulcan guns, they can pick one person in a crowd of 150 and take that one out without collateral damage while orbiting the target from 1300 feet doing 400 mph. You have no idea the devastation or precision involved. And they could’ve been there.

Thank you for your expert opinion. I wondered about this when I first heard it. It didn’t seem logical to paint the target in hopes someone would use the designation.

Not “someone “ Tom. The responsibility/decision lies with the Commander-in-Chief.

The only good Commie is an Impeached Commie.

Hopefully Obama could be Impeached in December after Romney is Elected POTUS in November. The tears of the Liberals would be flowing like Obama’s BS.

Why didn’t the attackers go in and kill everyone at the annex? Maybe the attack was to send a message to us.....”Quit supplying the Libyan rebels!”

I rarely watch TV anymore. Is any of this on the alphabet soup networks? Because if not, this is going to have zero impact on the election.

This seems above Obama’s pay grade all of a sudden.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

WHAT???? All of a sudden?

This asswipe poseur has been above his pay grade since his community organizer/agitator days.

I don’t think he will be visiting troops overseas anytime soon and you can bet your bippy NO ONE will be armed (again?)

What these clowns did and are continuing to do, is despicable

My Nephew was an Air Force Avionics Tech working on those puppies some years back.

He flew on a few training Flights.

He thought it was major cool, or something like that. #:^)

Question, when you paint it, is it still painted digitally when you turn off the laser? The reason I ask, no reason to paint unless a fun platform is available. But someone said maybe the seal painted as a last ditch for later. It makes a difference for the discussion. Thank you.

YES, indeed. This is it.

The Marxist CIC left them to die; to be slaughtered.
