I think the cable the Embassy in Benghazi sent to Washington 3 weeks before the attack saying that al Qaeda was enmassing there and that if they were to attack, the embassy didn't have the resources to defend themselves, is sufficient evidence to show that the minute the attack was communicated to Washington they would have known it was a terrorist attack. It also demonstrates that Washington ignored that alarm signal. Sorta like Klinton ignored the PDB he received in Dec of 1998 saying that al Qaeda was looking at attacking the U.S. with planes. If Klinton had heeded that warning and developed a plan to thwart such an occurrence, 3000 people would most likey still be alive today. War's aren't started by warmongers, wars are started by appeasers. You can ask Neville Chamberlain about it.

+1 Kudos to CNN for actually reporting something that might be harmful to Obama's image.

...now that the election is over. MSM is waking up. Surprisingly Anderson Cooper (complete Obama groupie 4 years ago) has been reporting solidly on Libya. (Did he know Stevens personally?).

you can spin it how ever you want, but it's the new GOP that left anything resembling the center and moved out to extreme land. They don't talk anymore, they just yell. They need to go back and study not only great GOP senators but great men like Bob Dole, Alan Simpson, Orin Hatch, and the John McCain that existed 20 years ago. Reasonable men who sought truth for it's own merit and to the benefit of the USA. Not loud shrill voices who just want to score political points.

Biden said al Qaeda was "decimated" in October of this year. Biden Obama said al Qaeda was "on the path to defeat" when he spoke at the DNC on September 6th, only 5 days before the Benghazi attacks. Obama It would have been better to just say "we don't know who is responsible yet but we are investigating" in the days after the attacks. Instead, the administration decided to use the video story, further flaming anti-Muslim sentiment across the globe, in the same way the administration seeks to stir up class, race, and gender warfare domestically.

maybe, but I don't recall the Dems going after Bush or Reagan every time a US diplomat or embassy or US installation was attacked in the middle east in the past, not to anywhere near this extent anyway. Even saw some saying this could rise to the level of impeachment on the looneyville Hannity show tonight. Weren't there 230 marines killed in an attack on a gov installation in the middle east during the Reagan administration. I don't recall dems calling for impeachment over it or even attacking Reagan over it. There was no where near this level of partison attacks after 9-11 towards Bush, if anything we all seemed to draw together.
That could be easily explained by how those POTUS handled the situation. They didn't try to tell us it was something other than what it was...

The American media have become the theater of the absurd. If it weren't so damn serious it would be comical.

An so did the 37 other Americans at the embassy that escaped and were later transported out of Libya. Most of those people could give a firsthand account of what actually happened, and they all seemed to have vanished into thin air.

Prezident Klinton. The one who got the PDB saying that AQ wanted to use planes as weapons against the US. Remember him?

Just go away. This thread isn't about this and you trying to make this into that thread isn't necessary. Start your own.

Let me say this about that: If one wants to examine the U.S. current political spectrum, the benchmark is the Constitution. The Constitution is the nation's operating manual, and the constitution's guide is the Federalist Papers. The Constitution is what identifies the nation and is the law of the land. Applying the constitution, the benchmark, to the republican party, finds that party slightly to the left of it. The democraps can be found left of the republican party and the Libertarians can be found right of the constitution. The conservative component of the republican party is right there with the constitution and the Founders, free enterprise economy, limited government, property rights, religious freedom, firearms freedom, love of liberty.
