Barack Obama and his minions are so used to controlling the press that they seem to think they can get away with anything. Thus, the eruption of anti-American riots from Morocco to Pakistan, beginning on September 11, is chalked up to a spontaneous eruption of entirely understandable Muslim distress over an otherwise-unknown YouTube video. Never mind the RPGs and machine guns. And when an American ambassador is murdered and dragged through the streets of Benghazi by a howling mob, not to worry: there was no negligence in failing to provide security; the ambassador, Chris Stevens, died essentially by accident from smoke inhalation; and his body was discovered by a group of friendly Libyans who rushed him to the hospital. Sure.
The main threat to the administration’s cover-up has never been American reporters, almost all of whom are desperately trying to get Obama re-elected. Rather, the danger is that more of the cell phone pictures and movies that were taken by Libyans of events in Benghazi and, in particular, of Ambassador Stevens, inevitably will surface, and will disrupt the administration’s narrative.
That may be starting to happen. This cell phone video purports to show the moment when the Libyan mob discovers Ambassador Stevens. Is that really what it depicts? I can’t tell. The setting appears right, and Breitbart.com says the victim’s clothing matches what is seen in later photos of Ambassador Stevens. I can’t judge that. But there is a sickening credibility to the poster’s claim that what we are seeing here is Ambassador Stevens being dragged from the “safe house” that turned out to be unsafe and, as far as I can tell, undefended. Here it is; judge for yourself:
This is, I suspect, the first of many shoes that will be dropping over the coming days ofthe Obama administration.

There is no way this could be faked - you would have had to hire about 25 Libyan actors speaking in a perfect Libyan Arabic dialect.
Let's face facts:
- The Media is lying
- Obama is lying
- Hillary Clinton is lying
- Jay Carney is lying
- The DNC is lying
We are living in a fascist nation. Congratulations liberals.
I don’t think the videos will matter. Heck, you could have a video of Obama himself dragging Stevens from the safehouse and those that are going to vote for him will still do so since their hearts are as black and depraved as Barry’s. Democrats are just pure evil and no amount of truth, video or otherwise, will change them.
You should see my fights w democrats on Facebook. Democrats are the dumbest most blind bats on the planet.
Amen, sadly. Obama could have killed Stevens himself and the media would have still covered for him. It’s DISGUSTING!
Mine, too. I am so frustrated, angry and depressed. THere’s no fixing stupid. Most don’t even bother to read a little furthere. I’m ready to dump every friend and aquaintance that votes for him.
I thought we were starting to see a slight break in the lamestream media protection of Obama during the summmer but they all stumbled back into full Protect Obama mode when the muslims started the embassy attacks.
Obama and the Left may have purchased the MSM but the truth is still coming out. And it makes their lies laughable.
It is hard to imagine that they honestly expected us to believe that all this Arab violence was due to a silly little movie trailer...or that Chris Stevens was taken to the hospital instead of being raped and dragged through the streets.
If this doesn't do Obama in...it is going to get worse by an order of magnitude.
There was a time I also thought the media would/could snap out of it. But apparently they have been bought and paid for by the CPUSA and their crony capitalists.
I think they realized the danger, and that’s why it is now officially forbidden to talk or ask about the events in Libya. This weekend the WH and State said they couldn’t talk or answer questions about it because it was part of “an ongoing criminal investigation” by the FBI, of all things. Not even by an intelligence service.
So the way they will deal with it is simply to put it off limits, and pretty soon people will forget about it and be unable to believe that it even happened because Obama and the US press will have erased it.
Where is ‘family man’ Romney, aka cowardly fluke! Dole, Bush, McCain, Romney, this is the crappy Republican leadership that is expected to defeat Cultural Marxism???? Dream on fools!
They are not going to get away with it. The American media cannot save him from what is also an international incident. As liberal as the foreign press may be, they are at least focusing their stories on the heart of the matter. Our so-called “journalists” primary function has become protect obama at all costs. Even national security. Even another coordinated attack on American embassies on another 9/11. This is what obama worship has come to and what both sides of the aisle have allowed. They put their “historic” “president” who has been campaigning, gallivanting around the country and giving speeches non-stop sincesince the day he took office above the people they are supposed to serve. They couldn’t even muster up the courage to criticize him for not attending intel briefings or for heading to Las Vegas in the immediate aftermath. SHAMEFUL.
The media can ignore that, but they can't ignore the president of Lybia who has been doing interviews directly contradicting the administration fairy tale about it being a spontaneous reaction to a video. He says it was planned long ago, was not a reaction to the video, and they had warned the administration.
“If this doesn’t do Obama in...it is going to get worse by an order of magnitude.”
Do you actually think this will “ do Obama in”?
The cell phone thing has been taken care of . In the new cell phones there is a chip that allows the government to turn them off.
I used to think that being a lawyer was about as snake-belly-low as one could get. As I grew older, Congressman and Senators took our barristers’ place. In my winter days, I now see that journalists - media spokesmen/women, et al are the true snake-bellies......
Bookmarked for later.
I already have. Some of my demOcat friends hate what I Post on Facebook. F them.
While I applaud your zeal in trying to educate your Liberal Facebook "friends", I'd point out that it's like trying to teach a pig to sing: it won't work and it irritates the pig.
I've just about given up myself. In my medical practice in the Washington suburbs I come in contact occasionally with seemingly bright, educated open-minded blacks, upper level government employees for the most part.
If they seem the slightest bit interested, I'll sometimes try to inform them of the facts demonstrating the ongoing and inevitable destruction of their and everyone else's health care system by Obamacare.
However, as soon as they recognize that an Obama policy is being criticized, I can see their intellect and curiosity cease and they immediately assume a defensive posture, sometimes mildly hostile. Not one that I have tried to educate ever has seemed to care enough to break through the barrier of their "team loyalty".
Even when the issue is framed as critical to the future health of themselves and their loved ones, the message falls on deaf ears.
If these are their best and the brightest, it's probably hopeless with the rest.
