As more information comes out on the murder of our Libyan Ambassador and 3 other Americans during the assault in Benghazi . the more incriminating it gets for the higher ups in Washington DC.
**SNIP**
The latest bombshell now shows the attack was a 7 hour ordeal. There was plenty of time to send help to the besieged Americans. Repeated pleas for help from those on the scene were denied by those higher up.
At one point during the battle a CIA operative pinpointed the mortar team which was bombarding the complex. He radioed for fire support from a Specter gunship, commonly used by U.S. Special Ops to provide support to teams on the ground. Even though an American airbase was only an hour away, no gunships arrived.
Further, Fox News learned, no Tier One Special operations forces, among them Delta Force operators, showed up to help, which were also within range and able to help if authorized.

You can bet the commie libs are wearing out a lot of prayer rugs saying, “Come on Sandy the Hurricane!” It’s their last hope. Their “media” needs to talk about something else to get Benghazi and the economy out of the news.
The sad thing here is just the reaction of ten good Marines landing in the mess....would have likely made the administration look good....even if they were too late to save the Ambassador. Ten Marines would have left a hundred of the attackers dead on the ground.
FOX is the only news group giving this any traction. Until the LSM starts turing the heat on Obozo and company NOTHING will happen. Look at “Fast and Furious”
Benghazi should sink big media as well. Or at least put another large nail in the coffin.
End their careers? Yeah, lots of luck with that. First of all, Republican leadership will CERTAINLY not prosecute Hussein if his voter fraud doesn’t push him over the top next month. And if he DOES manufacture enough phony votes to win, Republicans like Boehner and Mitchie the Kid in the senate will not push too hard lest they be labeled raaaacists or sore losers! Eric Holder will say there is an internal investigation under way and the Regime is therefore not able to comment until that investigation id “finished.” And three years later, investigators will find Hussein not guilty of any wrongdoing. Case closed, mainly thanks to feckless, gutless Republicans as usual.
That POS obama put off twice the kill order on Bin Laden. He froze again. What did America expect from a community organizer?
Will the rats learn their lesson? I doubt it!
Even they know that the president is notified IMMEDIATELY when a major crisis occurs anywhere in the world, the rats just don’t care.
I agree. I said from the minute this happened that it would be ignored by the media.
I hate being right.
"Even with treason, our (bought) MSM will defend us."
Oh; a Clinton ALWAYS can talk themselves out of ANYTHING. They’re charmed, don’t you know.
Obama has virtually run out of time and it’s too late to have someone fall on their sword for him. Hill and Bill are going to take him apart systematically right up to election day.
(And a big thanks to Fox for covering this)
Hillary is toast.
Actually, media is a huge component in this Benghazi coverup. I am hopeful that someday there will be an investigation into bribery, blackmail and collusion between media moguls and the Obama administration. They have and continue to turn their heads from corrupt behavior, thus giving Obama unchecked power.
Well...the WSJ ran a page 1 apologia for Hillary this week, saying her “reputation” might have be damaged by events in Benghazi.

Obama doesn’t understand “ no one left behind”.
It is a commitment to risk one’s own life to prevent such things from happening.
LA Times today: crickets.
Sent a letter which will remain unpublished:
Editor LA Times:
On Friday, the CIA announced that they did not instruct the two Navy Seals to not respond to the attack on the Benghazi Consulate. Various military commentators indicated that the US had the capability to respond to the 8-hour attack including from Sicily. The father of one of the dead seals made public comments about being insulted and lied to when he went to meet the arriving body of his son.
The Times chose to ignore these developments giving us stories about Romney doing business with his aides firms and Obama shoring up his support amongst the black community. Where is the WH explanation of the failure to provide security in advance of the attack, failure to approve a response to the attack, and covering up the nature of the attack for 14 days? Where is the call for a full disclosure from the president? He doesn’t need time for an investigation. He knows what was done and not done. Several of the decisions had to be made at his level. Instead he went to bed and then to Vegas to raise money.
The more who know the truth about the death of the Americans and the gross negligence of the administration, the less likely the president will be re-elected. Thus the cover-up in which you are participating. The Times failure to provide proper coverage of this major failure in national defense and protection of US citizens working in Libya is a serious breech of your responsibility to keep us informed and provide a safeguard against governmental malfeasance. Look no further when considering why, more and more, we seek news from other sources.
Well...the WSJ ran a page 1 apologia for Hillary this week, saying her reputation might have be damaged by events in Benghazi.
What’s more important. Her reputation or the lives of 4 Americans.
The depths the media will go to defend the irrelevant is disgusting.
Hehehe...Maybe it won’t be much help. It’s already weakened a bit! However, it could be quite a storm, who knows?
I do not believe that this facility was an actual US "consulate". If it was, who was the consulate-general, the State Department officer in charge?
I think this was actually a CIA facility, not a real consulate. Comments?
