The state dept. has over $2 billion in it's operating account. Yet, they thought Chevy Volts to our Vienna embassy were more important than security to the Libyan one. Pitch that bullsh!t again and I'll shove it down your throat, again.
It's classic listening to all these conservatives who blathered about needing to pay the "prices of freedom" when scores of thousands died in their "mistaken" war in Iraq now get all worked about about 4 dead in Libya.
4 avoidable deaths that obama and company spent weeks running from. Your boy is a fraud and coward. And you just kissed his ass into a second term.
They have been cutting Embassy Security budgets since Bush was in office.. http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Back...blame-voted-to-cut-diplomatic-security-budget
[h=1]STATE DEPARTMENT CUT LIBYAN SECURITY WHILE SPENDING ON CHEVY VOLTS[/h] http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Govern...vy-Volts-While-State-Dept-Cut-Libyan-Security
Oh... the fun is far from over... in fact, it's just beginning. Al the righties on here were whining about Obama being the worst president ever and how he was destined to be a one term president. Funny thing... the American electorate obviously thought that opinion was totally full of feces. And I LOVE it. And again...rather than pledge to work with the reaffirmed president, righties on here are whining about benghazi... and they wonder why the people rejected their brand of politics???? stupid AND dense. classic. ROFLMFAO
and he just whipped the pants off of YOUR boy.... doesn't that just stick in your craw? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha
Your boy lied to the American public about the deaths of four good men just to keep from calling it what it was A TERRORIST ATTACK ON AMERICAN SOIL. How does obama's scrotum taste? It's what you been dining on for the past four years.
It would have been over 30 deaths had the Navy SEALS not disobeyed orders they knew to be wrong and went and helped anyways sacrificing their lives.
Clearly with the Fiscal cliff looming in the next 60 days.....this obviously must be the priority of the Republicans.... Yes Benghazi should be investigated- but there are bigger issues that need to be addressed more immediately.
RE-POSTED: Just because we know the Liberals refuse to touch something with facts or content. Look at how they attacked the source on the Chevy Volt fact as well. Undisputed FACTS about Libya: We had our consulate attacked on 9/11 and were warned prior. Britain pulled their ambassador out from the warnings and perceived danger. We had our ambassador begging for security prior. We had U.S. Navy SEALS who were nearby get radio transmission of the terrorist attack and ask for permission to go help. They were denied (3) Times. The disobeyed the order after the 3rd denial. The U.S. Navy Seals took U.S. rooftop positions and battled off the terrorists for over 7 hours before dying. The constantly throughout that time radio transmitted for help. It never came and they were left to die with the ambassador. The U.S. Navy Seals had lasers which "paint" a target so smart bombs are hit within 1 foot. They confirmed that they had the targets "painted". Had the U.S. Navy Seals that disobeyed orders not showed up, it is estimated that another 30 U.S. staff would have been murdered. Barack Obama was informed within 1 hour of the 7 hour attack. Barack Obama never convened the situation room with his top military minds for solutions. Barack Obama, Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton, and Jay Carney all went out publicly and told the U.S. people that this was a protest over a Youtube video trailer of a movie that no one watched. (That is a lie.) Barack Obama flew the next day to Las Vegas to raise money and party. The #1 rule for American military is that we don't leave our guys behind. You do not do it. It breaks my heart to think of the betrayal that had to be going through the U.S. Navy SEALS minds as they heroically fought for over 7 hours against a greater force, with better weapons, in the dark after saving over 30 U.S. Staff. They were left behind to die. They knew how to win the battle and were denied support to do so. Doherty and Woods are heroes. They and their family deserved so much more and they are due the truth.[/QUOTE]
Smarty, kenjim, Grokmaster and the rest.... Dont you cons have some explaining to do? Or do we have to gon on now reading your dire opinions for another four years without you guys ever having to explain how you could be so loudly and drastically wrong? Dont you have any sense of honour?
I'm pretty sure it is the House of Representatives that controls the purse strings, no the state department. What was the Republicans action on embassy funding again? Oh yeah. They cut it.
Which has absolutely ZERO to do with bringing an armed response after the attack begun. You keep lying to yourself that Barack Obama left out guys there to die and the rest of us will keep seeing you liberal apologists as the cancer than enables the President of the United States to leave our men and ambassador to die.
neither US consulates nor US embassies are "American soil". sorry. and he didn't lie about anything. he did, however, just win reelection, which I think is wicked funny, given how all of you bozos were predicting his monumental defeat. Kinda makes me think that you should find some line of work other than prognostication! LOL I would highly suggest my line of work... kicking back and spending my hard earned military retirement and enjoying the hell out of life....
But it has every thing to do with your lame attempt to blame the state department for cutting embassy security, which is what the (*)(*)(*)(*)ing republicans did.
There was no way to bring an armed response in Benghazi inspite of all the chatter from the keyboard experts. The 16 man Mobile Security Deployment left in August and were moved to other Embassies in the region.
You missed the point. Which isn't even the point of the thread. So, I wont tax your feeble little mind explaining it to you. Obama lied for two weeks after the attack so that he wouldn't to face the fact that it was a terrorist attack on American soil.
You can't just attack a sovereign nation every time your embassy gets threatened. We haven't had an attack on one of our embassies since 1979. You don't just rush in guns a blazin' on Libyan citizens at the drop of a dime. The response was swift. The loss was tragic. Even the head of the protesters apologized. It's over let it go, and while you're at it, inform yourself on what really happened. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-19600542
