Obama condemns ‘outrageous attack’ in Libya that killed a U.S. ambassador
Washington Times ^ | September 12, 2012 | Dave Boyer

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.”

Mr. Stevens and three other Americans were killed Tuesday in an attack on the U.S. consulate in the eastern city of Benghazi by protesters angry over a film that ridiculed Islam’s Prophet Muhammad.

If there’s video, we should check to see if his fingers are crossed.

“Hell, they practically got an apology yesterday.”

They DID get an apology, the fact that they took down their tweet and DC apologized for the apology means nothing.

And, frankly, it disturbs me that an embassy would say anything to anyone via any method that was not OK’d by the administration. Behavior like that is a recipe for disaster. OMG, esp. in a place like Egypt.

These people are, at best, incompetent boobs.

Neither our so-called president nor our so-called secretary of state have made a TV appearance YET, and this happened YESTERDAY!

Maybe he should show how incensed he is by going on the Late Show with David Letterman and refusing to meet with Israeli PM Netanyahu.

That will show those Muslims he means business!

Oh, wait.....

It’s three o’clock in the morning, Baraq. Your phone is ringing.

And for the record, Hillary isn't doing much better as Secretary of State when it come to answering that phone. This entire administration is a disaster.

Well that’s better than saying we shouldn’t jump to conclusions. I guess that is some sort of progress.

Besides, he can always apologize later...

I was wondering the same thing. Where is this movie? I would like to give it a bunch of thumbs up or likes. Time for these muzzie bastards to realize the rest of the world rather see them eradicated like roaches.

Let’s see what this clown does.

Being this close to the election, you can be assured he will take the easy way out.

His handlers are scheming as we talk.

Mark my word, the only action we will see from this clown will be inaction.

Words mean nothing now, Obama. Actions means everything.

Immediately we need to inform host govts involved that we expect and demand support to find these individuals equal to our own actions. If not, this is war.

The President’s hands are not black this morning. His hands are red with the blood of his ambassador.

Interesting how it all happened on 9-11 ... turning Bibi down for a meeting, the American flag torn down at the Egyptian embassy, Americans killed in Libya. He’s been getting decent ratings on national security, mostly because of tooting his own horn on bin Laden .... let’s see what happens now. Obama has been trying to keep the lid on a pot of troubles that is close to boiling over, domestic and foreign, and hoping the boilover will happen after the elections. It’s happening before and I hope the American people throw this buffoon out of office.
