To quote Roy Batty (now if you got that reference then you are bigger nerd than you think).
First let me congratulate the Right wing for their amazing win! They have their ‘proof’ on Benghazi and the story of the day will be that win…..but the bigger story will go unnoticed because they have a WIN……..
For months I have trying to expose the BS around the deaths in Benghazi……some think it is a scandal….I think that it is weird….for one the ambassador knew the problems in Benghazi, why would he go in so light in the security part? If it was a covert meeting why would he go and not the CIA station chief? Like I said I have questions.
But yesterday I was reading my usual sites about the Middle East and came across some info that makes me think…….
The US government didn’t do enough to prevent the attack on the Benghazi consulate, a long-awaited Senate Intelligence Committee report concludes. The bipartisan report chastises the CIA for operating out of a different building than the State Department—a facility the military didn’t even know about, the Washington Post reports. It criticizes the State Department for failing to increase security as the situation became more dangerous, and the military for being ill-prepared, and slow (but not intentionally slow) in response. “The attacks were preventable,” the panel wrote. In one attention-grabbing nugget, the report also reveals that during the probe, 15 people “supporting the investigation” have been killed in Libya, though it’s unclear if their deaths are related. The report also addresses the central political conflict around the attacks—the question of whether the Obama administration intentionally mischaracterized the attack as a protest. The report blames intelligence agencies for providing Susan Rice with inaccurate talking points, according to Politico. Testimony declassified Monday, however, indicates that the Pentagon believed it was a terrorist attack right away, the New York Daily News reports.
Coincidence? After working for a certain organization, especially in the Middle East, I do NOT believe in coincidence. There is way too much happening around the Benghazi affair….but I think all those screaming “Scandal” are missing the point….they missing the obvious.
In the rush to try and nail Obama for something, anything, they are missing way too much….especially when it pertains to Benghazi…..
Anyone care to pass on some thoughts on this subject?
Nope. I think you have stated the case quite accurately. Mischaracterization of all the facts will be the order of the day by those who have tried to lay this solely at the feet of President Obama.
I am still working on the fact that 15 people have died….people that were part of the investigation…..there are NO coincidences!
The “win” is irrelevant in my opinion. I can’t see where any of the families of the dead Americans “won” anything. Also Mr. Ib I think misses the mark claiming folks want to lay this solely at Obama’s feet. I think Obama certainly should be called to task seeing he is the president and participated in the lies being put out to the American people. I think Hillary Clinton should also be taken to task, after all wasn’t she in charged of the State Department? I think Valerie Jarrett should be held accountable if she issued the “stand down” order in lieu of Obama’s absence. I mean, it’s childish to not assign blame to those in charge and who arrogantly proclaim “I’m responsible” like both Obama and Hillary. They say that but no one holds them responsible.
Four murders … “We’ll find out who’s responsible and bring them to justice”… Barack Obama said … in the mean time, nothing.
No friend Chuq, no one “won” anything.
Again, why can’t we American citizens put aside our differences, forget Democrat and Republican and come together and demand the truth from this corrupt government?
This what I was talking about…..it is about assigning blame and NO cares that 15 witnesses died during the investigation….to me that is the story here….2 maybe 15 is not a coincidence.
Chuq, you and I both know “coincidences” do not exist, especially in these situations. And how about these coincidences …

I don’t mean to load you up with links as I have a bunch of that sort of thing. And if you’ll permit me, look at all the mysterious deaths surrounding the Clintons and now Mr. Obama. Far too many to be coincidences.
Anyway, check them out at your convenience.
I have always thought that there is more to the attack on 9/11….but there are many opinions to make a successful judgement…..before I do that I want to see all the documents not someone’s word….
The Clinton’s….I have no use for them or any of their supporters…when I write about them I get angry….his admin fucked up too much to be the ‘her’ of the libs…..
Ah yes! I get angry myself brother. I enjoy our dialogue and I respect your opinions immensely.
Thanx I appreciate it….and I like that we can talk without the usual BS…..I liked your piece on abortion….did not agree….I usual do not post or comment on emotional issues like abortion, religion, that types….we all have our beliefs and that is what they are ours….I respect yours also…and that is the start……chuq
