Politico ^ | September 12 | Politico Staff

Posted on 09/12/2012 6:18:55 AM PDT by PghBaldy

From aWhiteHouse official:

"The President was informed of the Libya situation by NSA Donilon yesterday afternoon as he started his weekly meeting with the Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. The President was updated on both incidents several times throughout the evening and again this morning...The President was notified last night that Ambassador Stevens was unaccounted for and then notified again this morning about his tragic death."

It was probably mentioned in Tuesday’s intelligence briefing, but only intelligent people attended the meeting. So, Obambi didn’t find out until Wednesday.

But he reads the executive summaries, right? This is the same guy who thinks we have navy corpsemen. Is he capable of understanding the summary on his own? Wouldn't it be better for him to attend? There he could ask questions and get clarification......

The global crisis that "they" have been trying to recreate since the clinton administration was in the 60's, "US Involvement In Viet Nam"


THIS may be the latest for our time, "US Involvement In Other People's Lives"

It is VERY bad. The pics out there of the ambassador’s dead body with those animals is beyond sickening.

Didn’t Canada close its embassy a few days ago? Perhaps they heard something was in the works.

This is act of war kind of stuff, what will Dear Leader do? Send a nasty gram, withdraw the Ambassador they have to get his body first. Americans in these areas of the mideast should paint targets on their back, they can not respond to defend themselves, so they are killed. This is the beginning of Jimmy Carter and Iran all over again

Obama's response is the weakest drivel I've seen from a President on an attack on Americans. He can't help but add the religious intolerance nonsense. I am Catholic and he has declared war on my faith.

Obama has made me do something I'd never thought I would. Say that I miss the presidency of Carter.

..... When the so called "Arab Spring" movement swept accross North Africa.... I couldn't help but find it quite corious that this administration actually went out of it's way to defend the Muslim Brotherhood and divert any attention away from their actual motives.

Fast forward to today and I can't help but entertain the thought that what is happening now is actually part of a planned so called "unforseen event" that may really be the groundwork for a perverted version of an October Surprise. Perhaps I am just paranoid but I wouldn't put it past this Prez to do so.

Someone is telling the military the ‘rules of engagement’. They are the person to be blamed. We all know who it is that has allowed this to happen and not initiated any response. Our ambassador was killed. Our embassy was overrun and the flag taken down. The response is to blame someone else? Pathetic.

In my world, the line has just been crossed one too many times.

I don't know how many times I've retyped this second sentence. What I want to express just can not be said in a moderate nonthreatening tone.

What was this guy’s political affiliation? Would he regard his life’s sacrifice on the altar of political correctness as worthwhile?

But he reads the executive summaries, right?

Only if Valerie puts it on the telepromptor for him.

Missed it, my a**. He had the phone off the hook.
