Panetta: Obama Absent Night of Benghazi Daniel Halper February 7, 2013 12:05 PM
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta testified this morning on Capitol Hill that President Barack Obama was absent the night four Americans were murdered in Benghazi on September 11, 2012:
Panetta said that Obama left operational details, including knowledge of what resources were available to help the Americans under siege, "up to us."
In fact, Panetta says that the night of 9/11, he did not communicate with a single person at the White House. The attack resulted in the deaths of four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens.
Panetta said that, save their 5 o'clock prescheduled meeting with the president the day of September 11, Obama did not call or communicate in anyway with the defense secretary that day. There were no calls about what was going on in Benghazi. He never called to check-in.
if anyone wants tey can check my past posts and see I have been asking where obama was since the attacks and asking did he go to bed during the attacks.
It seemed he did which therefore means he was in disregard of his duties and the GOP need to push this forward and get obama, Clinton, Panetta all in the same room under oath and if need be bring charges.
I flicked through the channels after seeing a poll that less than half of the people think there was a cover up and low and behold the many so called news networks are not covering that part of this issue.
The GOP needs to go on the attack and mention obama’s name at every conference, every interview and even make AD’s about this.
It;s outrageous that the President went to bed, did not do anything whilst Americans were under attack and dying and where are the parents of these slain Americans?
I’d be camping outside the white house demanding answers over this now.
just what kind of a man would go to bed and sleep as others were dying and under attack?
It shows how oabma and amin yet again do not care about the military or those working for them or even the American public and the GOP needs to call a press conference, mention obama by name and demand that the media stop with this cover up and call the media out and get obama in front of them and get answers
lazies President ever
obama, went to sleep
people died
obama lied
Benghazi 2012 RIP
they only care about getting cross dressers, the mentally ill, promotions based on affimative action and homosexuals in the mitit.
To turn all this back we need a strong conservative and to take on the media right now.
he got elected through voter fraud, he never won my state and now it comes out that others are saying they voged more than once too.
election fraud pure and simple and the GOP does nothing.
hey looked at the Dem cpontroleld counties and knew that is where their fraud could win them the election and boy did they do that
you forgot fraud in the Dem controlled counties in states like mine
So sad and so true. I’m amazed at the Dem’s I know who admit he’s awful, but they still voted for him because they could not vote for a Republican. After he won, I told them “Gee thanks for helping to destroy the country for my kids”
The same goes for Virginia. My sister lives there and she said there was no way he won that state fairly. She said that no where did you even see Obama signs or bumper stickers. She said that when they gave him VA she about puked. But if the stupid GOP does nothing.... time for a new political party. Time for the Tea Party to really step up to the plate.
"“Did Rush pick this up?”
Probably too busy hawking his newest venture to bother.
I’m fed up with all the blabber mouths these days. They hold themselves in such high regard yet they are getting worthless about getting the message out. They are too self important to listen to anyone that isn’t establishment or writing a book they can hawk."
“Probably? Meaning....that you don’t have a clue what Rush does, says or doesn’t say or do.”
Oh, yes, I do know what he says or doesn’t say or do. I have listened to him for YEARS. I just don’t listen any longer because he is full of himself and the crap he sells.
Spare me the lecture...since I have been stupid enough to buy most of the CRAP! And since you know LITTLE OR NOTHING about me, take your own advice - “yet still they blather”.
"I have “friends” and relatives who actually BRAGGED about voting for this WORTHLESS BASTARD!!!"
Thanks for admitting, yet again, that you are CLUELESS about what Rush says or does not say.
That says it all.
Ask the right question, and it all makes sense. The question is, "What serves obamas best political interest?"
For obamas personal political interest the death of all 32 Americans would have been best. There would be noone to talk. Why have we not seen any of the 30 rescued personell? They have been sequestered for 4 months. 4 Months!
So,...obama tried to be sure they died. The fly in the ointment were the 2 SEALS. Who ordered them to stand down on their 3 requests to go from the CIA safehouse to the compound. Who ordered them to stand down and why? Would the President be involved in that order? I think so. I think Panetta is lying. I think Panetta is going civilian because this screwup was so mishandled. I think Obama wanted all 32 people to die and his orders were designed to do just that.
You are the one who is clueless. I said I used to listen to him until after this election and he hasn’t said anything now that he hasn’t said in the past and YOU KNOW IT, suck up.
BTW, mind your own damn business. I will listen to who I want and without your persmission, DEAR.
I don’t need or want your approval.
Panetta also said in his testimony that he informed 0bama of the attack in Benghazi. That was a strange thing to say given that he and 0bama had a scheduled meeting in the WH at the very time the attack began. Both would have been independently notified by their own staff, by law, that the attack was happening. Has 0bama ordered his staff not to bother him with trivial events such as attacks on embassies and consulates?
Obama just ignored the situation and let the 4 people die at the hands of his Muslim Brotherhood cohorts.
Panetta is a worthless lying POS of a lapdog for Obama.
I saw him say on TV that there wasn't time to go in and save the four Americans before they were murdered.
That is total BS!
Didn't any of the congresscritters questioning him mention that it's common knowledge that there was a team available less than an hour away?
And that they were ready to head over there, just waiting for the word from higher up?
He's not just incompetent, he is in on the conspiracy to let these people die.
Especially Stephens as he was ready to blow the whistle on Obama and his team of gun running traitors.
Obama was so anxious to get high power munitions to his Muslim Brotherhood buddies that he sacrificed Americans to their death to cover up what was happening.
Sickening, just sickening.
Where were the proper questions????
Obama knew that Benghazi was going to happen, that is why he wanted as far from the deed as he could get.
You made the snarky comment predicting what Rush said or didn't say about the topic....and then admitted that you didn't freaking KNOW what Rush said or didn't say. It showed your anti-Rush bias.
Again....it says it ALL. As for me minding my own business....on a public forum, this IS my business.... if or when I choose to make it my business.
Thanks for the Friday chuckle.
