We have already written twice under the heading of the Obama administration’s pitiful and pathetic performances, first in its response to Sept. 11 attacks on U.S. foreign offices, one of which killed four Americans; and then the President’s debate, in which he repeatedly lied about his opponent’s tax policies. (The administration’s mischaracterization of the oft-quoted “independent study” of the Romney proposal has been thoroughly discredited, in part by the study’s own authors.)
But nothing in those examples comes close to the continued attempts by Obama and company to mislead the American public about the circumstances leading up to and including the terrorist attack that killed Americans in Benghazi, Libya.
The written and taped record is so clear about what the administration claimed, and then tried to walk back, about that attack that short of admitting it, Team Obama has apparently decided to just double-down and keep lying with a straight face. (Well, not even a totally straight face, as the cackling Joe Biden showed repeatedly in last Thursday’s debate.)
In another era, this was called the Big Lie, and its proponents firmly believed that if they told it often enough and loud enough, it would be believed.
For weeks, Team Obama stuck to the story that all evidence pointed to a shoddy anti-Muslim film as the source of a “spontaneous” street protest that ended with our Ambassador Christopher Stevens and others dead. Even if one were to accept this incredible claim, (the State Department says that was not its conclusion), subsequent White House claims that the President had never suggested it was not a terrorist attack are more preposterous.
Beyond making Obama look ridiculous and his sidekick Biden the fool, however, the real worry here is that this is apparently the current foreign policy of the United States: Ignore warnings of inadequate security in a hostile place; fail to be on guard for 9-11 anniversary attacks; try to blame a shoddy film for the resulting disaster; and then lie and laugh about the whole thing.
The election is about the economy, of course. But it also needs to be about American safety and defense. Barack Obama fails on all counts.
I am also a bit fearful about what could happen between the election and the inauguration.
This might be the time when the militia (that’s us, as stated in the 2A) have to fight in the trenches.
I knew this time had to come. As much as I want it done and over with, going through it is a tad bit terrifying.
Please Lord....stand with us and lend us your Mighty Hand to defeat this goliath.
This is reminding me of Spain when the trains were bombed a week or so before their presidential election. The govt blamed the Basques, which turned out to be far from the truth. Their incumbent, Aznar, (a U.S. ally) lost and they elected a bona fide Socialist president. Here, at least, should history repeat itself, the socialist would be voted out of office.
I'm sick of these whiny, elderly 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, spoiled brats and their bratty ideological issue.. "Billy did it! I didn't do it! I didn't do it! WAAHH! WAAAAHHH!"
.. and they are as psycho as the 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, spoiled brats and bratty ideological issue of the Clinton Administration.. which makes me wonder was Ambassador Stevens another Ron Brown?
“All government aid will be suspended to any agency or individual located in a city where riots over the election results occur. Any person found guilty of taking part in, or aiding and abetting any participant in, a riot will be forever denied government employment, federal aid for education or any benefits from any government program. We will not tolerate any attempt to subvert the election results by rioting.”
I "hear" you and go one further - "I am also a bit fearful about what could happen" between NOW and the inauguration (provided Romney wins fairly and by fairly, I mean that the election isn't stolen for and/or Obama).
I saw a graphic of map of American and where the major terror cells are located. My part of country includes Muslim Brotherhood and a couple of others.
These are ACTIVE cells - who knows how many they haven't found.
This is the end of the Democrat party. Obama and Hillary gave anti-aircraft missiles to al-Qaeda because of their ignorance,arrogance and incompetence.
Yep. By debate night, this will be confirmed and Romney will drive it through the zombie’s heart.
