It is an absurd claim. We have one ambassador representing our nation in the capitals of about 125 nations. George W. Bush was president for eight years. Eight years is 96 months. The claim that 87 ambassadors were killed while Bush was president would mean that almost one ambassador was killed every month.

When I Bing’ed the claim, I saw the numbers of people killed in embassy bombings while Bush was president. Not all of those kill were Americans, and NONE of them was an ambassador. The number most touted was 60 killed. If my memory serves me well about two-thirds of those killed were citizens of the country who were in nearby restaurants and the attackers themselves. About another quarter were the citizens of other nations who were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

....not to mention that those were BOMBINGS, not face to face attacks. You can’t send in the cavalry when it’s one bomb that explodes.

But when you have an EIGHT+hour attack by a pack of feral Muslims and the cavalry is ordered to stand down and LET IT HAPPEN... and THEN to turn around and lie to the American people - blaming some video maker and throwing him in jail for months.... that is a crime.
