Mr. President, If you are truly concerned about the failure to protect our ambassador, you would have already started your own intensive investigation as to what went wrong, and by now determined the weak link in YOUR administration AND taken action to correct/remove those at fault.
I read the comments on Yahoo last night under the story of Hildabeast’s statement. My God, I thought I was reading the comments here on Free Republic! It was 100% anti-0bama! They were everything from 0bama throwing her under the bus to being part of his war on women to being a wuss for hiding behind her skirt! There were NO, and I mean NOT ONE single comment that defended BO.
Will they release the film maker?

Romney; “Man Up, Boy!”
Anyone who believes that Hillary will be thrown under the bus or that her acceptance of responsibility is a big deal should have their head examined.
What responsibility is Hillary really accepting? What are the consequences for her? Why did she wait over a month to make this statement? Why didn’t she testify at the congressional hearing rather than sending out Lamb and Kennedy? Why wasn’t Hillary on the five Sunday shows instead of Rice? Are the American people that stupid that they can believe her sham acceptance of responsibility?
This is all political theater. The timing couldn’t be more clear the day before the Presidential debate. And exactly what does Hillary have to lose? She is now the heroine protecting her boss who will help her political ambitions in 2016. Where are the calls now for her to resign if she really wants to accept responsibility? Or why doesn’t she offer her resignation?
Obama is not hiding behind Hillary. They are partners in crime. Hillary knows that there will be no consequences for her and Obama can just continue to blame everyone for his failures. No doubt that Hillary is helping Obama and that she knows that the intelligence community is pissed off at Biden for blaming them. Hillary is trying to calm the intelligence community and prevent leaks.
The State Department was in real time communication with the consulate as events went down. They had reports from the 25 or so survivors who escaped. They were debriefed right after they left Libya. Yet, Hillary at the Andrews AFB ceremony honoring the four killed in Benghazi blamed the video. The ceremony was held on Friday, September 14th two days before Rice went on the five Sunday shows.
I spent 28 years as a Foreign Service Officer. Someone had to sign a security wavier for the “interim” facility in Benghazi that housed the consulate. This had to be done by either the Assistant Secretary for Diplomatic Security, Eric Boswell, the Undersecretary for Management, Patrick Kennedy, or the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. I wish someone would ask to see that written wavier, which is required.
Hillary is responsible for the poor security at the consulate and Obama is responsible for the cover-up.
So, when a nuke takes out a large city in America, killing millions of Americans, where will the buck stop?
Certainly not with Obama, because he wouldn’t have been at the briefing when the threat was discussed. Just like he didn’t know anything about Fast and Furious.
The guy is just too busy saving us from the Bush economy, correcting the poorly written constitution and over 230 years of bad management.
Who stole Obama’s ‘laser like focus’ ?? Was it the same folks that stole his “shovel ready jobs” and the ‘Summer of Recovery’ ?
Dear God, Save the Republic.....
Obama and Hillary are both involved in the coverup of events in Libya. They are like two rats holding hands on a turd in the sewer. They’re just floating along hoping the turd will eventually wash up against the side of the sewer. If they fight, they both might fall into the crap and drown. They’re two slicky-boy lawyers. Petraeus isn’t a lawyer.
Abu Graib = Nobody dies = Bush’s fault
Benghazi = 4 dead = ABO’s Fault (Anybody But Obama)
I’m starting to believe the theory that was posted on FR a couple of days ago - that the whole incident was supposed to be a kidnapping and later exchange for the blind sheik, making Obama a hero before the election. The 2 navy seals who happened to be there made it a real fight. Why else would everyone go to such lengths to cover it up? And why no retaliation yet? That is inexcusable. They could at least cut off any aid to Libya.
This whole “Hillary takes the responsibility” business: She may have taken the “responsibility” but she’s refusing all the attendant consequences. Her statement is empty unless she resigns.
He can’t blame Hillery, because she is now accepting the blame, and diverting blame away from Obama, so he can be “re-elected.”. Thats the spin.
Silly reporter needs to get with the plan! / S
As if we even know who Obama is at this point, we certainly know next to nothing about him at all except the false propaganda picture created for and by Obama.If the electorate doesn’t even want to know who Obama really is, why the heck should the electorate care about him blaming Hillery for Benghazi?
Obama thinks that the electorate is just a manipulatable commodity, which is why he spends almost all of his time doing it, rather than establishing good relations with Congress, he spends time following the strategies of Alinsky.
Good Read, tells you just who Obama is:

If she gets a bump in the polls, then she’s not to blame, I am and I take complete responsibility for it, although I generously acknowledge her courageous stand. If she doesn’t get a bump in the polls, then she is and we’ll just have to make some room under the bus and then throw her there.
