boots, he has done it several times already on Iraq and Afghanistan. He testified to an official inquiry that this thing was caused by that stupid video.

There has to be congressional and senate investigations IMMEDIATELY!
many many people lying
Yep..he was sounding like a measly lawyer ducking questions.i heard the gentleman on Rush today too. It was very enlightening!
Mark Levin just played the interview!
Yes, he did.
Maybe that was the last chit he owed someone?
There are several vacant jail cells at a prison in western Illinois just waiting to welcome this gaggle of traitorous thieves. It would be most fitting.
I’ll try to get him to watch it when he gets up from his nap.
That links to the comments page.
Yeah. This Benghazi is heartbreaking and horrid and it all belongs to the Marxist!
Yes. And 0bama was paid 98% of $181,000,000 for it, too, at the same time that Iran has now been armed.
I should have watched it before I hit 'Post'. Thanks.
About the Weekly Standard link, no workee on Blackberry. Starts to load, I can see some text and suddenly nothing but white space, page done!
Is Petraeus quoted directly or is it CIA spokesman sez?
He just watched it. He said, it’s typical o-liar. He tells more lies than truth and always avoids answering directly. He thought he was very nervous but trying to act “calm and cool.” and failed miserably.
Either this was another Fast and Furious situation, Stevens death was a targeted hit by Obama for whatever reason and the others were collateral damage..or this was a botched hostage situation to make Obama look good but it failed..its one of those three..this has NOTHING to do with incompetence..I would understand incompetence, everything Obama has done has been orchestrated
Breaking news on Benghazi: the CIA spokesman, presumably at the direction of CIA director David Petraeus, has put out this statement: “No one at any level in the CIA told anybody not to help those in need; claims to the contrary are simply inaccurate. ”

thanks, I see they continue to call it a ‘consulate’ which it apparently wasn’t; and the ‘ambassador’ wasn’t doing what ambassadors normally do - so until we see the premises described as what they were, a compound/facility for weapons storage, and the ‘ambassador’ engaged in a mission, we will not get any closer to a clear picture.
IT SEEMS THERE WAS NO CONSUL OR EMBASSY IN BENGAHZI:
