I am livid.

Here is TOTUS' entire written statement:

I strongly condemn the outrageous attack on our diplomatic facility in Benghazi, which took the lives of four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens. Right now, the American people have the families of those we lost in our thoughts and prayers. 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.

I have directed my Administration to provide all necessary resources to support the security of our personnel in Libya, and to increase security at our diplomatic posts around the globe. While the United States rejects efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others, we must all unequivocally oppose the kind of senseless violence that took the lives of these public servants.

On a personal note, Chris was a courageous and exemplary representative of the United States. Throughout the Libyan revolution, he selflessly served our country and the Libyan people at our mission in Benghazi. As Ambassador in Tripoli, he has supported Libya’s transition to democracy. His legacy will endure wherever human beings reach for liberty and justice. I am profoundly grateful for his service to my Administration, and deeply saddened by this loss.

The brave Americans we lost represent the extraordinary service and sacrifices that our civilians make every day around the globe. As we stand united with their families, let us now redouble our own efforts to carry their work forward.

NOTE also where is statement on Egypt?

Of course the attack took place early evening in Libya. The story was already out there by the international press. Our MSM put a lid on the story awaiting the WH response and directions on how to spin the story. The President could have responded yesterday to the attacks in both Egypt and Libya.

His staff knows they have to be very careful when they tell Obumma news that might stress him out.

It’s starting to sound like the muslim mobs took their bodies, and did a Falluja or Mogadishu on them.

And they still have their bodies.

The ‘rats in the White House REALLY don’t want us to know how bad it actually is.

The core members of this jerk's party ridicule and demonize Christians every single day. What gives this guy the right to tell people who they can and cannot criticize while exercising their freedom of speech? Way to uphold the First Amendment, Obama...

"Al-Sharef said two U.S. Marines sent to Benghazi when the clash erupted were shot and killed by the well-armed protesters. It was not immediately clear whether the Marines were part of Stevens' security detail. The American whose death was confirmed on Tuesday also died of a gunshot wound. He was identified by the State Department on Wednesday as Foreign Service Information Management Officer Sean Smith."

Gov. Mitt Romney slammed President Barack Obama‘s administration for sympathizing with the Islamists who attacked the U.S. diplomatic centers in Egypt and Libya.

“It’s disgraceful that the Obama Administration’s first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks,” said his statement released just after midnight as Sept. 11 came to a close.

Notice the media isn’t too eager to report on the rage in the Arab world either....they must AWAIT instructions from the Obamugabe regime before they say anything.

If Bush were in office now, the media world would be assaulting HIM for these actions.

The man was prepping to go on Letterman! He cannot be expected to do two things as once. There are priorities.

I strongly condemn

**************

Oh, he STRONGLY condemns. WOW, that should scare the fanatic savages! S/

The Resident was quite willing to aide these savages in their takeover, but he is not willing to retaliate over them murdering Americans in cold blood. This happened eleven years after 9-11 and all he does is strongly condemns. I expect nothing less from a spineless cowardly campaigner-n-chief,

I wonder how long it will take his Brownshirts to blame Romney for making the trailer.

It would have been in his security briefing, but he keeps skipping those.

As Ambassador in Tripoli, he has supported Libya’s transition to democracy. His legacy will endure wherever human beings reach for liberty and justice.

He left a word out: "wherever human beings reach for Islamic liberty and justice.

And that changes everything, though I wonder what percentage of Americans yet realize that, or admit it to themselves.

He is STILL apologizing for Americans exercising their First Amendment rights in a film no one has heard of, and he does so in the same paragraph in which he condemns the slaughter of Americans by people he whom he assisted with American military power just a few months ago. I am hard pressed to determine which is worse: his (at best) naivete about the Arab Spring or the false moral equivalence of his statement on the slaughter in Benghazi.

Obama’s Statement on the Muslim attacks on American missions

To all my Muslim friends. Peace be unto you in the name of Mohammed, blessed be his name.

If you MUST kill Americans, please try to refrain from hacking their bodies to pieces as it makes them difficult to identify.

Thank you.

Statement from Mitt Romney

American Embassies are AMERICAN SOIL. If you attack another American Embassy, unlike in Cairo where you morons violated our territory and destroyed property and where the Marine sentries were ordered by the Muslim friendly Obama administration to STAND DOWN, our security forces will FIRE FOR EFFECT. If necessary, I will dispatch carrier based air cover and additional ground forces to protect our people and remove them from your clutches.

The Marine Hymn contains the line “…to the shores of Tripoli.” If you wish to continue your insane tribal and sectarian madness, we will be back just long enough to bring out every American citizen then leave you to your national insanity until you’re all dead.

Don't worry. By the end of the week the media will be blaming Bush for these actions.

Both the planned attacks on our embassy & consulate in Egypt & Libya were fully carried out on Tuesday, September 11, 2012. The news of these attacks was all over the internet, starting late Tuesday afternoon (dinner time in the USA). Both POTUS Obama and SOS, Hillary Clinton said nothing, issued no statements, one way or the other!!!

These acts were carefully planned and excuted on schedule by Muslim extremists, not some unplanned Muslim mob action. The USA suffered another well planned, mini-9/11 attacks yesterday throughout the Middle East.

Bottom line: the USA has no POTUS, no state department, no leadership on any front. Folks, fellow citizens, we are all in harm’s way, and we better damn well wake up, and destroy Obama and the entire Democrat Party, politically, before they destroy our great country!! I am so mad and vivid with angry, that I will not post further lest I pen something from my NYC background about how I really feel of that poor excuse of a human being, America Hater/Destroyer, POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama!!!

The enemy is knocking on our door with the support and aid of the “Muslim Brotherhood” man in the White House. I cannot believe that the American people are so asleep at the wheel unaware, to the lurking, rising danger to our country, our children, ourselves Obama must be defeated in November, 2012!!!

It was probably mentioned in Tuesday’s intelligence briefing, but only intelligent people attended the meeting. So, Obambi didn’t find out until Wednesday.
