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

Posted on 09/12/2012 5:15:09 AM PDT by BulletBobCo

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.

They can’t even get their cover story straight. ABC said it was a Terry Jones clip and CNN said it was the alleged Son of Hamas movie that forced those delicate muslims to pull out their RPGs and assassinate the ambassador.

All total BS. Open season on Americans. Payback on the 9/11 anniversary.

Notice the kenyan can’t even say the T word. Fort Hood style dissembling all over again.

It is stunning that the DIPlomats have Marines protecting the embassies, but apparently the Marines have their ROE that they can't shoot these moozlum creeps. I find it hard to believe that a properly armed US Marine couldn't singlehandedly take out 50-100 of these slimy moozlums.

Did he say instead of sympathies for the families that we contribute to his campaign?

Where is John McCain on this? He was cheerleading for the Islamists almost as much as Obama.

Just 2 days ago, he was asking again for intervention against Assad.

Obama denigrates the beliefs of Christians all the time. Anyway, its the First Amendment, Free Speech. This is an attack on the First Amendment, orchestrated by the White House. It cost Ambassador Chris Stevens his life.

Obama condemns ... blah blah blah ... talk talk talk .... but he can't even keep his whole administration in line, as shown by the Cairo apology story ( http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2929713/posts ) ...

The Muslims are making it more and more apparent that the way to handle them is likely to be as BlueLancer suggested over a decade ago:

--------------------------------

200 years from now, I want their children's children's children
to cower and cringe in fear whenever they hear the sounds of jet engines overhead
because their legends tell of fire from the sky.

I want them to hide in dark caves and holes in the earth,
shivering with terror whenever they hear the roar of diesel engines
because the tales of their ancestors talk about metal monsters
crawling over the earth, spitting death and destruction.

I want their mothers to be able to admonish them with
"If you don't behave, the Pale Destroyers will come for you",
and that will be enough to reduce them to quivering obedience.

I want the annihilation to be so complete that their mythology
will tell them of the day of judgment when the stern gods from across the sea
.. the powerful 'Mericans .. destroyed their forefathers' wickedness.

(Original created by BlueLancer ... 13 September 2001)

I must have missed the second part of this release where he says this attack on America will not stand and he has ordered Marines to secure all Middle East embassies with deadly force. Governments who do not control their citizens will not get their allowance check from the U.S. this month.

I agree, this is just cover. The willing media is helping as well.

This was another attack on America. What will Obama do? Geez, he has a golf date and a Letterman appearance. His schedule is full.

I thought all embassies have armed guards. Why were they not allowed to get their firearms and blast some holes in their Muslim asses?

Anyone who thinks that SOS Hillary has any cachet in the Middle East is out of his mind. The reptilian Islamic savages who control virtually the whole ME cauldron hate women and keep them enslaved. Who, in his right mind, thinks that Hillary is able to negotiate ANYTHING with these neanderthals. It's a wonder they even let her step foot into their countries.

Yet the Dems build her up like she's smart and effective, the greatest emissary our country has had since Benjamin Franklin.

All of Obama's unelected cabinet members and czars are an ideological mortal danger to the U.S. and they must be run out of the DC swamp as quickly as possible after the upcoming election.

Both instances are Acts of War.

Embassy grounds are the sovereign soil of the US.

Whoever is the leader of each of these rat holes needs to be called to account and quickly!

BTW, didn't we just give Egypt $1Billion dollars? First thing, cancel that freakin' check!

Oh okay, then he has already apologized. I should have known. It’s been a few hours already.

Does anyone know if he has bowed to anybody yet?

I’ll bet his prayer rug gets a bit of use today...

These Islamists pull this crap because they know they’ll get away with it scott free...

I'm confused as to which Islamists you are referring to. The Islamists attacking in Libya or the Islamists offering this "condemnation"/"apology"?

In Barack Hussein Obama’s world, everything is going according to plan.
