This has been going on for years, including the Bush administration.
Military can’t even hold rifles when they are patrolling our military bases. They ‘pretend’ to carry guns.
Americans need to start admitting the full level of communist ideology permeating both parties and all of our government.
Then we can start to bring our country back into being.
To: All
I’’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that the uniformed Secret
Service agents who guard embassies in DC are armed with live ammunition.

The sources I've seen, like
Time, just say she was in DC at the time.

SOMEBODY needs to ask 0bama WHY in a civilized nation like ours, contrasted with the radical goons and thugs in Egypt, Libya, etc., the White House security staff need ammo for their guns, after all: if our Marines are denied ammo in hazardous duty posts, why on Earth would the Secret Service and White House security staff need to have ammo here at home?
When was the last time that a bunch of Islamic terrorists tried to storm the White House? NEVER! So why all the guns, ammo and security? Indeed!
I wrote on another thread, "disarm his Secret Service."

Given the status of the diplomatic facility, I can understand why. There should have been limitations on what kind of communications equipment and level of classified material could be held at the site. We have similar arrangements at small consulates.

Perhaps Levin, Drudge, Rush, Hannity, Beck, and/or Savage will try to find out and let We The People know if Hitlery’s orders were to take ammo from US Marines and leave them sitting ducks.
To: Cliff Dweller
That koran burning minister should give Dempsey a ring back and ask him to stop endangering our soldiers by putting them in jihadiland as guards with no means of self defense.
This is outrageous. When the US military sees a mob of murderous jihadists storming US terrority (while chanting they are all Osamas), that is a target rich environment. Bullets and bombs are needed.

Uh, Nana? How about maybe some specifics here, like 'when', 'where', context, etc? I've never been a fan of Mitt, and I'm voting not so much FOR Mitt, as I'm voting AGAINST 0bama, but I've never heard him 'mocking our military' in fact if that were the case, the 'Rats and their leftist sockpuppets would have been beating him over the head with it 24/7, so I remain skeptical of that in lieu of actual hard evidence.

We all say this, but seriously, is ANYONE HERE ON FR actually surprised to hear this?
Seriously?
I am not surprised.
Disgusted, yes.
To the Nth degree.
But not surprised.

To: ExTexasRedhead
Hopefully they will. I sent Rush an email through my 24/7 account (he supposedly reads more of the "paid" emails) asking for his thoughts on if the no ammo policy could have been leaked to the MB prior to the attacks.
Maybe he will follow up on it tomorrow

No American soldier should ever be put in a place of danger without being properly armed. If Obama wants to staff the embassy with tour guides, let him recruit from the thousands of Democrat staffers getting fat and lazy in Washington. Stop using the Marines as props! I wonder if anyone in Congress has the brass to initiate a bill to prohibit anyone in the military from being assigned to any overseas posting without being fully armed with loaded weapons and an appropriate number of extra magazines, and grenades. Would such a bill receive the 2/3 votes necessary to override a PResidential veto?
To: Cliff Dweller
Not surprised. I wondered what the RsOE were.
