.....It’s almost unimaginable that the Obama administration could spin their way out of this one. They’ll try, but there aren’t too many cards left to play. The video narrative has ridden off into the horizon and can help them no longer.
They’ll probably dismiss Fox News as a right wing, hence unreliable source. They’d be wise not to try it. A quick trip down memory lane takes us back to September, when DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz claimed the conservative Washington Examiner misquoted her, only to discover that her words had been recorded....
Even if Debbie had not already paved the way to Fool’s Gold, Obama should remember that conservative news outlets are not alone in this ever morphing story. His allies in the main steam media cannot shield him forever. Sometimes, when evidence pours down like sharp, cold hail, conventional news outlets actually report the news. It might be a whole new experience for them, but they do it, if only by kicking and screaming......
.......If President Obama knew the truth and told Carney to lie, he has lost the right to be president. The only other explanation is that somehow these reports never got to him, possibly because he was busy campaigning. That involves a scenario where the president’s subordinates were deliberately keeping him in the dark. Anything is possible, but this strains credulity.
For some Obama supporters, the information breakdown theory may be more palatable, but the choice is then between gross negligence and downright lying. In the case of negligence, a portion of the lie remains. If we ignore logic and assume that despite cries for help,e-mails,and official intelligence reports, Obama still did not know the truth, we are left asking where the video story came from. If he didn’t know anything,did he just make it up?...........
...Facts are stubborn things.....

He’s lost his right to be president, if he ever even had it. IMO he’s lost his right to walk the streets a free man because he was making deals with the enemy. what is it they do to traitors again? .....yeah that! That’s what should happen to O.
You are so mean;)
Who is waiting for Valerie Jarrett to write a book???? Maybe then, the WON will know what happened!!!
“There’s a broader lesson to be learned here,” Mr. Obama told “60 Minutes” correspondent Steve Kroft at the White House. “And I — you know, Governor Romney seems to have a tendency to shoot first and aim later. And as president, one of the things I’ve learned is you can’t do that. That, you know, it’s important for you to make sure that the statements that you make are backed up by the facts. And that you’ve thought through the ramifications before you make ‘em.”
That’s correct, sod. I’m a big ole meanie. I just cannot handle what is going on in our country anymore! We can’t afford to waste anymore time. We mightn’t have much left. And this punk is not gonna FU my retirement plans!
LIAR!!! “The Cambridge cops acted stupidly” for one, Bammy!!
I feel sorry for the poor people of south Chicago, who are going to get ass-raped by obama and jarrett when they return to their real estate development activities after the election. There will be no stopping those bloodsuckers from taking every last penny.
If only Congress had the courage to mess up BO’s retirement - that would be poetic justice.
Too late to impeach him, but not too late to charge him with treason.
Exactly. No pension for the rest of his life. He forfeits it all cuz he’s a dirty dealer and betrayed his country. Just like lance Armstrong. Only a million times worse! And oh yeah, we hang him high right there in the mall in February.

Not possible if FOX's sources are correct:
From Greta van Susteren's interview with Ambassador John Bolton:
Greta: What we have been told is that during that time is that President Obama, VP Biden and Secretary of Defense Panetta at some time that evening or that afternoon were in the Oval Office together....
"That time" she refers to is during those hours when the consulate was being attacked. Also, Bolton's statement that in no administration that he had served would this have been handled in any other way than at the very top level.
However, it is time we start doing something here at FR. Don't know if anyone has done it already but we need a thread with as complete a time-line of the Benghazi events as possible. It should start at least the weeks before when the first attacks start and the British decide to move out. Each event shold be linked to one or several sources, including web links.
I know the usual answer when one suggests something like this; excellent idea, please, go ahead. Unfortunately I am too busy this wekend. I am writing this from work and I will probably stay here for most of Saturday and Sunday. Maybe someone has done something similar already?
I think his handlers threw out the scenario of Somalia and ‘Black Hawk Down’ and Obama & his minions turned their backs on Benghazi to avoid a possible rerun.
Jay Carneyval Barker told us Obama was a voracious consumer of intelligence. I wonder how that sentence feels in his pea-brain right now?

A good timeline. What we knew and when. 3 pages long. See entire article.
In Somalia, we were supposed to be there for humanitarian reason.
But we turned the mission into a manhunt for a warlord.
In Somalia, we had access to heavy weapons, but chose not to use them, because they were politically risky.
In Somalia, men died because they were sent on a mission that was inadequately equipped and inadequately supported.
Obama may have been trying to prevent a repeat of Mogadishu, but his efforts to avoid that are pretty much exactly what led to a repeat of Mogadishu.
We wanted Libya liberated from Ghadaffy -- but then we stuck around and started a gun-running operation to jihadist terrorists. Okay, now we're on the wrong mission.
We could have sent in strong support to Benghazi, but decided not to escalate the situation, because it might have political repercussions.
Hasn't worked out for the Kenyan.
I just posted to Greta’s blog a request for a timeline - I know there are some out there. If we are going to do this, starting from scratch would be very difficult.
Collaborating on a FR timeline also presents challenges. But, it’s worth a try, imo. Why don’t you at least start a thread and see what happens?

Sounds a lot like like Benghazi
OBAMA LIED AND PEOPLE DIED.
Very good.
