Chuck Todd has defended the Obama admin's decision not to send more special ops to Benghazi.
Appearing on today's Morning Joe, NBC News political director Todd claimed that the decision to send only two special ops to Benghazi was "very rational." He also literally laughed off the notion that Benghazi could boil into a major scandal.

Did I miss something? Didn’t the troops from the CIA annex go to the consulate AGAINST orders? And did not the help from Tripoli go to Benghazi AGAINST orders? If I got that wrong someone please correct me.

NBC News political director Todd claimed that the decision to send only two special ops to Benghazi was "very rational." I'm surprised anyone could understand WHAT he said with his lips so obviously pressed against Obama's butt-cheek!

He also literally laughed off the notion that Benghazi could boil into a major scandal. Pay no attention to the man behind the teleprompter.

He also literally laughed off the notion that Benghazi could boil into a major scandal. A major scandal, yes; but one with major negative consequences for the perpetrators, no way. The MSM maintains an impenetrable "Teflon shield" for 0bumble and Hildebeast that reduces Reagan's vaunted "Teflon shield" to tissue in comparison.

Chuck needs to be reminded, as my fourth grade teacher often told us: “They have places where they put people who laugh when nothing’s funny.”

Chuck Todd worked on the presidential campaign of Tom Harkin. Might that tell us something of his political leanings?

Yes....the old “WE COULDN’T SEND THE FIRETRUCKS TO THE FIRE BECAUSE THE FIRE STATION MIGHT CATCH ON FIRE” argument. That’s always a winner. What an idiot.

An NBC News political director is now also a military expert.

So, what’s funnier, chuckie? Obama’s reference to the Benghazi dead as “speed bumps” or “not optimal?” It’s all just a barrel of laughs isn’t it? Guffaw, guffaw, guffaw.
Meanwhile, four Americans died violently at the hands of scores of knuckledragging, bloodthirsty jihadis, and we have yet to get a truthful accounting from anyone in this regime.
Screw off, Todd — along with all your fellow propagandists.

Nice doggie!
Probably not relevant, but Chuck Todd looks like someone who would have brown stripes in his undies most of the time.

The State Run Media, including Chuckie Todd, are very busy right now to deflect and white-wash the Benghazi-Gate so their agenda can be seen/heard in the code word of “politicizing”!!!

I am convinced that most, if not all, of these journolistas are getting paid handsomely for their Obama propaganda on the side. Most probably have offshore bank accounts with direct deposits from Soros and Company.
Me too. Actually I think the payoffs go to the parent companies and then the corporate suits tell the talking head suits what to say. I think that’s how it works.

The wagons have already been circled by the RATS and their Lame Stream Media. This is going nowhere even though it is apparent to anyone paying attention this entire coverup was to prevent Nobama from losing reelection.

Wait just a durn minute here...Chuck has the perfect background to be NBC's political News Director: he was a Democrat operative and worked, for instance, on the campaign of Tom Harkin, the lib from Iowa.

It was very rational for Jimmy Carter to have let our Embassy in Iran be held hostage for as long as was because to do anything could get some one hurt or make the Radical angry at us.
Most important of all it would leave America open to criticism of being arrogant and aggressive.
Of course, when the arrogant and aggressive Ronald Reagan took office and made it clear that bad things were going to happen to those responsible, the Radical Clerics released everyone as fast as they could
Liberalism is either a mental illness or an enablement of treason

I’m guessing NBC is extremely annoyed that they have to lower themselves and talk about this. Golly gee, why can’t people move on, it was months ago /s.
