Benghazi: What Did Obama Know and When Did He Know It?

ob77Congressional testimony this week showed the appalling lengths to which the Obama administration went to cover-up its mishandling of last fall’s terrorist attack at the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya, but President Obama’s precise role in the cynical operation remains hidden.

Americans still don’t know what President Obama knew and when he knew it. We don’t know what exactly he did when he learned on Sept. 11, 2012 that U.S. officials in Benghazi were under attack. Obama may have gone to bed while the attack was in progress, leaving others in the administration to develop a politically expedient cover story calculated to get the Obama administration past the finish line last Election Day.

Obama’s advisers, with the president’s consent or not, opted to tell lies to get their man reelected, and to deal with the consequences of those untruths later. They knew they could count on the mainstream media to snooze on the job and dismiss the investigation to come as a partisan witch-hunt.

The manufactured storyline emphasized Obama’s increasingly hollow claim that “al-Qaeda is on the path to defeat and Osama bin Laden is dead.” It allowed the president to escape much need scrutiny about his lame approach to national security and the threat that Islamism poses to the United States.

“Where was Obama for those 12 hours?”

Just like now, he was busy playing scrubbage.

And where on earth are the other survivors from Benghazi? We’d like to hear from them.

Obama’s whereabouts after 5 pm (Washington time) are undocumented. We are to believe Obama was having fish tacos and watching TV...
*******
Most likely with his “body man” Reggie Love.

We know that Obama had a long conversation with Netanyahu that evening while the attack was still underway.

It would be interesting to hear what Netanyahu recalls of that conversation (whether Obama discussed Benghazi during it), but maybe he's afraid of Obama retaliating.

“I’d like to know where the hell he was too.”

Not only where he was, who he was with and what he/they were doing. If you notice, the is the HUGE elephant in the corner of the room. Absolutely nobody is going near this, not Fox News and not even Rush. It seems to be toxic.....

Perhaps he was spending quality time with his favorite fudge packer..........and didn't want to be disturbed.

Possibly. Can we start documenting where RL was on or about 9/11/12?
