MSNBC Guest: Protecting Ambassador Stevens Would Have Stopped Him From Doing His Job

This could be the lamest defense yet for the lapses that led to the murder of US Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens. According to a former diplomat appointed by Bill Clinton, providing tighter security for Ambassador Stevens might have prevented him from carrying out his diplomatic duties.

Daniel Serwer, the Clinton diplomat in question, offered his excuse for the Benghazi debacle on MSNBC's Up With Chris Hayes this morning.

MSNBC Guest: Protecting Ambassador Stevens Would Have Stopped Him From Doing His Job

Only if "martyr" or "sacrificial lamb" were in the job description.

The folks over there said it was like dealing with the Taliban being in the state department. This puke definitely proves that to be a problem.

This came up back in Truman's day ~ too many commies in state department. Now we have the Taliban.

A clue for Romney ~ DO NOT DEFEND STATE DEPARTMENT ~ round up the Taliban in the agency and send them to Gitmo.

So the Obama administration appointed a homosexual to be ambassador to a Muslim country! Keep that little tidbit in mind next time a Liberal lectures you on how we Conservatives should be careful not to offend the practitioners of the “religion of peace.”

The Cover-up of moslem's routine animalistic behavior continues.

Nobody mentions how Stephens and company were tortured and killed. They died from the effects of prolonged sodomy. One early picture released before the mainstream media discovered the truth actually shows a dead Stephens being raped. His rapist grins in triumph while still mounted behind Stephens.

In fact the cause of death, asphyxiation occured because the Ambassador's airway was compressed by the weight pushed down upon him in the process of his gang rape.

We can certainly identified the professional rapist who does this for a living. Yes, you heard me right, the mullahs employ gangs of professional rapists to terrorize entire regions of the Middle East. Imagine it's actually a government job just like our POTUS hired a body man like Reggie Love. Oops, that might not be the best anal--ogy. Yuk, yuk, yuk they all make me sick.

It's about time we teach them a lesson. Blow the whole region to hell. They are animals.

Careful analysis suggests that being dead also prevents him from doing his job.

I guess that strategy succeeded, because he certainly can’t do his job now

Ouch!

I don’t think the US is better off in our influence, with our ambassador dead and I sure don’t think the ambassador is better off dead.

But this how the death cult in power thinks and operates. They will kill us stateside for the “higher good” of their liberal golobal ideology as well.
