Evidently the idiots at Foggy Bottom do not understand the mission nor preparedness of as Marine FAST team or a QRF!!!!!!
We are being “lead” by Marxist blithering idiots!!!!
I have no doubt it is. Quite frankly I don’t think anything that is planned by the regime gets by anyone that is not a political operative. Most likely a campaign official.Most of this wreaks of Axelrod,IMHO.
Maybe cut the man some slack.
Where's he going to take his statement? WaPO? NBC?
Thirty seconds after he (or anybody else, for that matter) opened their mouth to anybody in the US media, that bunch of rat pimps would be first in line to slime 'em down to all eternity. Right after they spiked the story.
Just

I think this is the exact link,correct me if I am mistaken.
This is a transcript of what state dept. major spokespeople #1 and #2 briefed the press on a huge conference call late at night.
I have yet to read the entire thing but I will.
Once again thanks very much for this,explains a lot of what questions I had. I get sick of guessing.
I haven’t read the real documents either, but some former military guy said that those 450 miles could be travelled by military jet in 20 minutes, not hours, and another 10 minutes to get the planes in the air.
That’s my take as well so glad to hear you come up with the same take.
Even if Sr. officials “thought” that help might not get there in time I would have thought that they would have at the very least “tried.” If that was the mission. Of course if it wasn’t the mission to begin with......if it was a hit...
Thanks mesta. I will check the threat assessment thread later on.
By the way could you give us a link to the latest threat thread on here?
The other thing that I read in the transcripts was that on 9/12, the first plane carried State Dept officials, not military. The second plane arrived with the military. So, the State Dept wanted to get in there first, ahead of anyone. Seems a little backwards.
Wow like minds. I just posted the same link!
One more thing about the cameras, you notice that they have full detail of what was happening inside the consulate, that had to come from the cameras in the consulate, then they have pictures from the air of what was happening on the street that had to have come from the drone. So, two sources of video.
I can’t believe it takes so long to get the truth about all this out,like pulling teeth.
The start of the Cairo attack is here:

From there, almost every single post is Benghazi from start up to the minute. The last post is here:

Either that or they understand it all very well and it was all planned.
Reps. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, this is gonna be a good one.
I’m glad you said that. It makes perfect sense to me. Really puts to shame earlier comments you posted from officials unidentified that said there was no time to get to them. Its not out of the realm to think that we have 1,000 mph planes.And these guys are trained to move quickly I would think.
A little backwards is putting it mildly,this whole thing is a huge cluster.What a mess.At least a lot of info is finally rising to the surface.
Thanks very much Mesta.
I don’t remember how fast the guy said that the planes travel, he described in Mach something, which means nothing to me.
I have not forgotten either. Semper Fi Bro.
Media was twistin’ and turnin’ way back then. Selectively ever since (protect Dems; trash Patriots)
"We are the hollow men". And, to add what very little I remember of Yeats:
"Things fall apart; the center cannot hold."
No matter what, I sure hope that whole lot of "frumious bandersnatches" are thrown out of office, so we can all "chortle in our joy".
Mach 1 is the speed of sound 768 mph. So if you had a plane flying at mach 2, which I believe we have, it would be close to 1,500mph. 450 miles away would be nothing.
