President Obama said Wednesday he strongly condemns the “outrageous attack” by a mob in Libya that killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens.

“Right now, the American people have the families of those we lost in our thoughts and prayers,” Mr. Obama said in a statement. “They exemplified America’s commitment to freedom, justice, and partnership with nations and people around the globe, and stand in stark contrast to those who callously took their lives.”

There was a poster on a very early thread this morning who had known the Ambassador and worked with her in some other posting, and said she was very professional and a true career diplomat who would never have written or issued a statement like that.

It would be wonderful if she’d resign, although I’m not getting my hopes up.

Obama is a liar and Muslim terrorist sympathizer to make this about the film which is a non issue. They attacked because of the 9/11 anniversary, PERIOD!
