Obama has explaining to do on Benghazi
CNN ^ | May 11, 2013 | Rep.Jason Chaffetz

Editor's note: U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz represents Utah's 3rd Congressional District.

Washington (CNN) -- In testimony that sharply contradicted the Obama administration's initial narrative of the September 11, 2012, terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya, three witnesses shared firsthand accounts this week of what happened before, during and after the attack.

The three testified before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, recounting the horrific events that took the lives of four heroic Americans that day at the U.S. Consulate.

Much of what we have known about Benghazi to this point has come from Obama administration sources. The accounts of these brave witnesses raise troubling questions about the veracity of what we've been told by official sources since the attack took place.

The first contradiction pits former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's explanation of security conditions at the compound against that of Eric Nordstrom, the former regional security officer at the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli. In his testimony Wednesday, he repeated assertions he'd made to Congressional investigators last year that his recommendations to upgrade security were ignored at the highest levels.

Yet roughly four months after the attacks, Clinton told the House Committee on Foreign Affairs that "specific requests and decision making" on security "rest with the security professionals."

Obomba is seriously deranged---and needs professional help. He needs to step away from the WH.

HE HAS BEEN OUTED When we examine Obomba's response to the murder of four Americans in Benghazi, and why he took such extraordinary collusive steps to conceal evidence, and why he thought Americans would swallow his, Hillary's, and Susan Rice's lies, we reach several conclusions:

(A) Obomba is positioning himself as a "global savior"---saving the world from Islamic fanaticism. His remarks at the Dem convention WRT "Al Quaeda being on the run and Islamic mastermind Bin Laden being dead," were not casual off-the-cuff remarks---these words foretold his coming agenda.

(B) Now, Benghazi was not supposed to happen on his watch---it disrupted his plans. Ergo, Obomba went ballistic---he was ready to say and do anything to save himself. He launched a full-scale offensive---but failed to factor in the US govt staff in Benghazi who refused to go along with Obomba's version of events.

Obomba had bribed the radical Muslim Brotherhood w/ billions of tax dollars---he had also bribed several Islamic states---he talked of the sap-happy "Arab Spring" and obviously had a range of plans in the works to establish himself as "world savior."

Alas, Benghazi effectively dashed Obomba's plan to command the world to kneel in obeisance to "Savior Obomba."

DOWN BUT NOT OUT "The savior" is colluding w/ his pals----Third World tin pot dictators---conspiring in ways they can save his sorry ***.
