Three days warning and nothing was done! This is beyond gross incompetence. Someone needs to be held accountable.

CNN has resources on the ground in most of the world.

Someone needs to be held accountable.

Someone was. Unfortunately, three innocents were killed too.

I think its important that CNN is reporting this, since they typically won’t report anything negative about this administration.

“Accountable” ?? That's a quaint idea. There is no accountability. The Pretorian Guard (media) will ensure it.

Now, let's get back to those “disgraceful” comments by Romney.

I heard everything was going fine until Romney gave a statement. That’s when it happened. /sarc

>> Someone needs to be held accountable.

The obamao campaign picks Mitt Romney to be the one, with George Bush as a backup.

This is a DNC op.

The press has bumped Obama a great deal through it.

Someone was held accountable, and his name is Mitt Romney for daring to speak of the incompetence of our failed leader.

Someone needs to be held accountable.

Someone has: The man who made the goofy little movie. Remember, the regime has held the movie solely responsible for the wave of violence against Americans around the world.

The Romney bashing is a diversion from the failure of this Administration’s Middle East policy. Obama policies are destabilizing the Middle East, they’re not helping.

“CNN has resources on the ground in most of the world.”

I will say one thing for them, whenever there is a breaking event somewhere in the world they do have good coverage right away. It is later when the libtard talking heads there put themselves and their spin into the story that I change the channel.

Didn’t Romney make that ‘movie’ that caused all the trouble? And what is CNN up to reporting all of this? Didn’t they listen to Dr. Rice today? Have they misplaced their DNC talking points?
