I posted a link to where he did mention kidnapping. Can’t you read?

Gawd, what is your problem? How could a video from June 2012 carry any valid commentary on the specific events in Benghazi which happened months later? I didn’t say the video was without merit as to defense preparedness, just that it had no bearing on the underlying claim.

[tbird-james]

All the attention on Amb. Price’s statements is meant to take away from answering the real questions:
1. Whey were there so many CIA in ben-Ghazi?
2. What was Stevens doing there?
3. Who issued the order to stand down/not go?
4. Why was Gen Ham relieved of duty?
5. What is the expected response time on these fast react teams?
6. Why were there no extra alert teams on 9/11?

Answer these and you might find out what you don't want to know.
Could it perhaps be that we were working an arms deal supporting the Muslim Brotherhood and/or their connects?

My problem is that you’re stupid.

Knowledgeable commentary on the status of our forces would have a lot of bearing on Benghazi.

You may be one of the guys I was parroting. ;)

I confess that it is one of the most plausible conspiracy theories I’ve ever heard. It fits the events and Obama’s response to those events within the context of the time they took place.

First of all, that link was not mentioned in the original article. Second, his comment was pure speculation, which was indicated WHEN I PROVIDED THE ENTIRE CONTEXT. Who is being dishonest here? Who is showing the reading comprehension issues? Not me, bucko. I don’t know why you have a bee up your butt, but you have it for all the wrong reasons here.

WATCH OUT for booby-trapped info:

I’m not saying this is wrong, but Bubba also did this during the Monica Mess:

“BILL WENT NUTSO DURING THE DEPOSITION...!!!”

And we ALLL here at FR tuned in to watch him turn purple and tear his hear out.

N-A-D-A...! It was a set-up —his behavior was FINE.

We looked stupid, which was the idea.

We HOPE this is true, but watch out —they’re pretty smart.

[dirtboy]

My problem is that you are too busy bent on attacking me to think rationally.

...negotiated trade for the Blind Sheikh would have been the “October Surprise” that would have elevated President Obama’s flagging popularity and boosted his approval ratings for a re-election.

Maybe for libs, who can't think two seconds ahead, but for real Americans, it would have been troubling: we should not negotiate with terrorists and doing so would set a terrible precedent.

[Uncle Chip]

That would explain the “Stand Down” order —

[TigersEye]

I never said it wasn’t speculation.

[TigersEye]

I don’t care what your problem is.

[dirtboy]

The article paints Lyons as saying it definitively was kidnapping. That’s the entire problem. There is utterly no evidence provided to support such.

[cuban leaf]

The video was posted June 22, 2012, so it cannot have any bearing on Benghazi.

Actually, it can, depending on the content. I’m jut speaking academically.

[FreeAtlanta]

Considering all the Muslim brotherhood connections in the administration, they had the means, the motive.

[dirtboy]

Obviously you are more bent on attacking me than bothering to try and grasp the underlying problems with the claim made in the original article. Used to be most Freepers were smart enough to vet stories before running with them. Too little of that any more.

[TigersEye]

The article paints Lyons as saying it definitively was kidnapping.

Trivial. Lyons painted the perfect scenario and he made the speculation in other venues. Your complaint is nit picking.

Is Candy Crowley singing yet?

[TigersEye]

I can do both at the same time.
