Great article, Kaslin. Thanks for posting.
Not a word of this will be mentioned Monday night.
Excellent questions that, sadly, are not likely to be asked. Here are a couple more:
Your administration has directly or indirectly aided Al Qaeda “rebels” - terrorists - in Libya and is now doing so in Syria. In the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that you signed on New Year’s Eve 2011, you insisted that it enable indefinite detention of US citizens accused of aiding terrorists. Should you, Secretary Clinton, Secretary Panetta, and General Petraeus be detained under the terms of your NDAA?
Students who knew you at Occidental College say that you were a committed Marxist revolutionary. When and why did you disavow this philosophy and embrace capitalism and republican government?
Why did your administration file a lawsuit against an oil company for their “pit” killing 25 birds, yet is silent about the over 100 raptor birds, some of them endangered species, being killed by windmills in CA every year?
PING!
another question:
Mr. President:
Can you tell us definitively that the weapons used against our Consulate were not weapons given to the group of Jihadists BY THE USA?
Out-frigging-standing, Kaslin!
These re questions that should and must be answered...but that Obama never will. The more Romney can bring up...the more obvious it is that Obama has 1) No intention of answereing them, and 2) That Obama has no “good” answers for any of them.
Here’s some more specifically oiriented towards BEnghazie.
I believe that somehow, because of all the unanswered questions there...because of the unbelievably chaotic and rushed manner in which the Obama administration tried to cover it up...and because of just common sense questions, questions like:
1. Why were new security requests for Benghazi denied after two recent attacks, one by an IED in June that left a 40ft whole in the wall?
2. Why were the security teams they had in BEnghazi removed in August, juts a couple of weeks before the event?
3. Why was a U.S. Ambassador who had indicated he rfeared for his life and was seeking more security, sent to Benghazi, the hotbed for anti-Americanism, on the 11th Anniversyary of 911 with o US security team?
4. Why did 12 command centerss watch an attack on Benghazi unflod for SIX HOURS and no relief attempt was mounted either from Tripoli with helos, or from potential US NAvy vessels in the Med? A helo traveling at 150 MPH can go a good distance in 6 hours, so can an F-18 traveling at Mach 1.
5. Finally, what was the relationship of Stevens to the Gitmo Releasess who was heading up anti-Quadafi efforts out of BEnghazi during the revolution? Was Stevens going there to meet him? Was it a setup?
I honestly believe that the terrorists knew that the security had been taken away. I believe they actually hoped to kidnap the Ambassador in an easy smash and grab operation and then try and trade him for the blind shiek, and I believe there very well could have been people in our own government who knew about all of this.
I believe that the “October Surprise” may have been what was “supposed” to happen in Benghazi.
But because a couple of US Navy SEALS happened to be there on another unrelated matter, and because a couple of other personnel (possibly CIA people) worked with them and put up a heck of a fight...holding them off for 6 hours...that the plan went bad. The attackers got mad when many of their own were killed and wonded and they ended up killing Stevens and the SEALS and the other fellow that got seperated from the main group (who escaped) when they caught them.
Thus what was supposed to be a great “moment” for Obama in an arranged “tough” negotiation to “save” Ambassador Stevens (who himself I believe had no clue about this), turned into a gruesome murder instead.

Even the “Cash For Clunkers’ was a mess.
There is now a critical shortage of used car parts to repair & maintain the cars we are driving. That is harming those who have the ability to fix their own cars when they need to.
The Chevy Volt is another colossal error. They have been selling them at a LOSS of $50,000 each, since they cost about $90,000 to produce each one! It isn’t even being produced now & the battery companies that provide power for the Volt are bankrupt & shut down. Now that’s a business plan that shows Obama’s ability!!!
