The liberal MSM attacked Romney like pitbulls when he spoke out after the Libyan Embassy attack. How dare he question the Administration while they were mourning the deaths of four Americans. It seems the Chris Matthews and the rest of leg tingle liberals haven’t been quite as vocal about the Obama administration’s lies, misinformation and blame for the deaths of these Americans. How convenient.
About Behghazi, Obama lied
Sunday, October 14,2012
An anonymous State Department official told the Associated Press last Tuesday: “That was not our conclusion” — namely that a notorious YouTube video that lampooned the Islamic prophet Mohammed unleashed deadly mayhem upon America’s consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
This denial should shock anyone who watched the news after U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, Foreign Service officer Sean Smith, and former Navy SEALs Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods were murdered on the 11th anniversary of September 11.
That anti-Islamic video’s culpability certainly was the “conclusion” among top administration officials, including President Barack Obama. They fingered this video for eight days, even as evidence mounted that these Americans were slain in a commando-style operation that involved machine guns and mortar shells, not banners and placards.
As Fox News Channel’s Bret Baier and Bill O’Reilly each detailed on Wednesday, Team Obama energetically promoted this now-repudiated “conclusion.”
September 11: Despite anti-video demonstrations in Cairo, Benghazi is tranquil. According to U.S. diplomats, “everything is calm. There’s nothing unusual. There has been nothing unusual during the day at all outside. No protests all day.”
At 9:40 PM local time, however, gunfire and explosions rock the consulate.
September 12: As these homicides become clear, Obama says, “We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others, but there is absolutely no justification for this type of senseless violence. None.” Obama then skips his daily intelligence briefing and jets to a Las Vegas fundraiser.
September 13: “The United States government had absolutely nothing to do with this video,” Secretary of State Hillary Clinton declares. “We absolutely reject its content and message.”
September 14: “The unrest we’ve seen around the region has been in reaction to a video that Muslims, many Muslims find offensive,” White House Press Secretary Jay Carney announces.
That day, as the murdered Americans’ remains reach Andrews Air Force Base, Clinton says: “We have seen rage and violence directed at American embassies over an awful Internet video that we had nothing to do with.”
September 16: United Nations Ambassador Susan Rice calls the violence “a spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired in Cairo as a consequence of the video.”
September 18: Obama tells comedian David Letterman that he rejects the “extremely offensive video directed at Mohammed and Islam.” Obama adds that “extremists and terrorists used this as an excuse to attack a variety of our embassies, including the consulate in Libya.”
September 19: Team Obama abruptly changes tunes. National Counterterrorism Director Matthew Olsen informs the Senate Homeland Security Committee, “I would say yes, they were killed in the course of a terrorist attack on our embassy.”
Why would Team Obama essentially accuse a video of these murders, even as Lt. Col. Andrew Wood — leader of a 16-man, dedicated military unit withdrawn from Libya last August — called the hit “instantly recognizable” as terrorism?
During Obama’s difficult campaign, that fantasy was far more palatable than this reality: a pre-meditated, well-executed al-Qaida strike on a U.S. mission eradicated four Americans, even after they longed for the security assistance that might have prevented them from coming home in caskets.
Amb. Stevens warned Washington that Libya “remains unpredictable, volatile, and violent.”
Eric Nordstrom, a former U.S. security officer in Libya, told the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee on Wednesday that State documented 230 security incidents in Libya between June 2011 and July 2012. Nordstrom consequently requested 12 more security personnel.
“You’re asking for the sun, moon and the stars,” a regional director complained. Nordstrom concluded that “we were not going to get resources until the aftermath of an incident.” He wondered, “How thin does the ice need to get until someone falls through?”
These inconvenient truths would have obviated Team Obama’s “bin Laden is dead/al Qaida is comatose” re-election theme. Thus, the same government that apparently leaks secrets to make the president look tough evidently oozed falsehoods to keep him from looking weak.
In short: People died, Obama lied.

The Obama administration has been deceptive about the Benghazi attack the entire time.
FIrst, they blamed it on a spontaneous protest over a anti-Mohammed youtube trailer when there was no protest, only a planned terrorist attack. The White House stuck to the phony narrative long after they knew it wasn’t true.
Now they are trying to blame it on Republican budget cuts that were a non-factor. Obama’s Deputy Campaign Manager Stephanie Cutter even went so far as to say, “the entire reason this has become the political topic it is, is because of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan”.
What the fuck is wrong with these people ? This was a serious national security failure, one that was entirely foreseeable, one that our embassy personnel saw coming. Americans were murdered, and it seems the only thing the Obama administration is interested in is throwing sand in America’s eyes until after the election. This behavior is shameful, and should not be tolerated. But, hey, what do I know? Obama’s “likeability” factor is still sky high.

Bob Sheiffer made a huge deal of this issue yesterday on “Face the Nation,” much to my surprise. He basically devoted the entire program to the subject of Obama’s administration lying about what was obviously a deliberate, terrorist action. Sheiffer made the following point not once, not twice, but three times:
“We asked the White House to send a representative to appear on the program today, but the White House declined.”
