Fox News anchor Shepard Smith let his outrage fly this afternoon on Studio B, as he angrily chided the federal government for not increasing security abroad even after intelligence officials learned that there was a plot to murder American emissaries.
Speaking via satellite with security expert Rick Nelson, Smith repeatedly raised his voice — not at Nelson, but at the subject overall.
“What is interesting to me and might be interesting to the people at home watching as some of them with their jaws dropped is that, first of all, the man who is in charge of the security detail there has said from the beginning in the testimony that we don’t have the security need for our Americans whom we sent over there to serve us,” he said as his voice began to rise.
“Then the terrorists struck us at that spot in Benghazi. But no one told us about it. And then they put on Facebook they would attack again. And no one told us about it. And then they attacked again and they told us it was not an attack, it was a looking at video and they got excited,” he continued in a shouting voice. “Something ain’t right… Are all of our people sitting ducks?”

Playing politics.
We have been hit with another terrorist attack, the government lied about it, and has not only coddled terrorists (normal democrat stuff), but actually exonerated them.
This is not playing politics.
This is exposing treason.

I agree with you 110%. But with the Senate in control of the rats, nothing will be done about it.
To: woweeitsme
Is the issue that you don't like Smith, or that an American ambassador has been murdered along with three people who tried to protect him?
Sometimes . . .

Well Shep, it’s okay for YOU to be outraged, but not if one is a Republican ?

Shep used the word ‘terrorist’? I thought Obama had ended all offensive language. The two ninnies from the State Department would not, could not call the murders terrorists.

Well, Shep probably feels a close connection with our dead ambassador for some reason.
