TOPIC: Benghazi-What Really Happened

I found this account to be the closest to a credible truth. Occam's Razor.... ______________ Saletan: Everyone Was Wrong About Benghazi attacks Published: October 22, 2012 11:54 PM By William Saletan Slate The Benghazi attack should humble us. Not just because our ambassador and three aides were killed, but because all of us - even those who thought they were uncovering the truth behind a lie - were wrong about what happened. In the days after the assault, spokesmen for the Obama administration linked it to an anti-Muslim video that had triggered riots around the world. Republicans accused the administration of drawing this conclusion because it suited Obama's worldview. It reduced the attack to a matter of diplomacy and, in Romney's words, "apologizing." Liberals had rushed to believe what they wanted to believe. As early accounts of a protest at the consulate collapsed, Republicans substituted their own story. The video, they explained, was irrelevant. Instead, the attack had been plotted by allies of al-Qaida to coincide with the anniversary of 9/11. This story, too, suited the worldview of its advocates. It reduced the Benghazi incident to a matter of security, warfare and refusing to apologize. And, like the protest story, it has unraveled.

So due tell us, what has he or what is he going to do to be impeached? And who is "WE"? You mean all the Wingnuts who post here. LIke Mickey, FJ, Lucky, AFT. Perf and more. Mickey said he will loose in a landslide. AFT said Romney will win all 50 states and now you come up with impeachment. Me thinks you all smoke too much of the same really putrid weed. You all need to find a new dealer.

Bad form. As you may have noticed, the Wingnut Noise Machine is seriously pushing the notion that President Obama deliberately sat back and did nothing when a Libyan militia attacked the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi on Sept. 11, apparently because he is either incompetent (the “charitable” view) or because he just plain hates America that much (the “reasonable doubt exists” view). It turns out that, according to intelligence officials, CIA agents stationed in Benghazi actually did come to the aid of the Consulate, as did a second CIA team sent from Tripoli, and Libyan military forces helped the surviving Americans get to the airport to escape after the attack. The officials also directly refuted Fox News’ claims that the CIA was ordered to “stand down,” and also dismissed the notion that airstrikes could have helped anyone in the consulate: “Let’s say we were able to get an aircraft there. Do you go in and start strafing a populated area without knowing where friend or foe is?” a senior Defense official asked. “If you did that, you could kill the very people you are trying to help.” Yet, in the primitive tribal culture of the Republic-con Party, Wicked Willard would be a better candidate on foreign affairs than Obama. Willard has been sleeping with Mormon Dementors.

Along those same lines, now that you have shamed FJ into changing his age, maybe you can get him to post something other then a 25 year old picture. Probably not as most likely it will still be up in ten years, assuming he will still be alive at 109.

And I hope you enjoy the ladies as much as I have along the way! Unless you are Lefty nitwits, and then I hope you get and have ED the rest of your lefty nitwit lives!" Nahh tbr, he's not a liar. He's a sociopathic braggart with a nasty steak who also HAPPENS to be a bald faced liar.
