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.

"Why aren't John Boehner and Mitch McConnell holding news conferences"

Why do I see 5 or 6 Pelosi News Appearances for every 1 by Boehner - even on Fox?

Asking myself the same thing....what did Obama know and when did he know it about: Benghazi, SEAL Team 6, Boston Marathon & cover for Saudi National, and now IRS targeting conservatives? It goes on and on.

I’ve frequently been called a conspiracy theorist for questioning the birth certificate....add to it Benghazi, SEAL Team 6, Boston Marathon (false flag) and cover up for the Saudi National, not to mention what we now know about the IRS. At what point does it become obvious that are we no longer looking at conspiracies, but the TRUTH?

I have this theory that we are having gaiety shoved down our throats recently for a reason. Not just to promote it, something else is going on. I’m thinking Obama will come out soon then we’ll have the explanation of how the poor closeted gay man was catching a few moments and ooops, some folks died. Sorry about that.
