This is going on file John

If the Mittster loses I think there's a pretty good chance she'll run in 2016. The 1st woman and 3rd black Pres.

I think the staement, 'If the systems didn't work, it's a problem.' is dead on accurate.

So, Panetta says they didn't send in backup, because you don't deploy forces into harms way without knowing what's going on.
But they said they DID know what was going on- it was supposedly a spontaneous uprising of the locals. Should be pretty easy to handle. And, emails show they did know what was going on.
I think the other shoe is gonna drop pretty soon, and I think it's gonna be Hillary's shoe. She didn't look too thrilled standing next to Obie there in the Rose Garden that first day. If she gets sucked under the bus, I think she's gonna pull everybody in with her.

I see you listened to Rush/Fox today.

I don't watch or listen to Rush. Fox, yes, they are the only ones who seem to be pursuing the story, as usual.

It seems to me that they're gleefully shilling for Romney by trying to make more of this story than is actually there, knowing full well that Romney and Ryan have no foreign policy experience and that Obama's has been far better than expected in the foreign policy arena.

I have to roll my eyes when the unhinged Fox shills claim that this is the worst scandal since Watergate, maybe even surpassing it. If you buy into this drivel, you really need to reexamine your own gullibility.

And it seems to me that every other news agency is shilling for Obama, by either completely ignoring what is obviously news, or by purposely coloring it. For example, calling this installation a consulate, when the consulate is in Tripoli.

Nope. The embassy is always in the capitol and Tripoli is the capitol. State Department installations outside of the capitol are called consulates. It has always been thus.

Embassies and consulates are two different things. There was no consulate until it was opened in Tripoli on August 26. Christopher Stevens spoke at the opening ceremony.



“I’m happy to announce that starting on Monday, August 27, we are ready to offer a full range of consular services to Libyans,” stated Stevens at the ceremony in Tripoli. “This means non-immigrant visas, as well as assistance to Americans residing in, or visiting, Libya.”

The State Department website lists no consulate in Benghazi.

The neos are getting so desperate! I, for one, love every day that you windsocks wind up on this turd parade. It makes for grand comedy. I love watching Hannity's little girl voice rising octave by octave while she pees down her leg.
