“Obama never tried, U.S. diplomats died.” Shocking lies by the Obama Administration over Benghazi were unmasked on May 8. Testimony about the September 11 terrorist attacks on the U.S. Consulate in Libya were heard by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, led by Congressman Darrell Issa (R-CA).
Some of what was expected did not materialize. Other bombshells turned out bigger. Clearly, we still do not know everything. Jaw-dropping topics are being discussed by other conservative journalists.
First, Gregory Hicks is the only person so far to speak in public about these events who was actually in Libya at the time. Hicks was the Deputy Chief of Mission in Tripoli, Libya – that is, Deputy Ambassador. As soon as Ambassador Chris Stevens died, Hicks became Acting Ambassador to Libya.
However, we still have not heard from anyone who was in Benghazi during these events. The 30-40 survivors are still in mysterious seclusion. Their eyewitness accounts will offer future revelations.
Second, Hicks dropped a bombshell: The USA never asked Libya for permission to fly through Libyan airspace to defend the Consulate in Benghazi. The Obama Administration never intended to come to the defense of Ambassador Stevens. Hicks – fluent in Arabic and familiar with Libya’s government – testified that Libya would have granted permission.
Congressman Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) keeps reminding us that no one knew how long the attack would last. In fact, it was 3 days later when the Embassy staff in Tripoli returned from evacuation at an annex. So at the time, U.S. F-16’s might still have been needed long past the first 7 hours. Hicks confirmed that he thought the situation was still dangerous for 3 days. Yet the U.S.A. never requested Libyan permission in case U.S. aircraft might be needed.

Criminal willful negligence. Impeach the traitor!!

It’s becoming clearer and clearer that Obama is merely the White House mascot.
And that's the charitable verdict, presuming it was incompetence and not malice.
Impeach the traitor!!
House Republicans will never do it. Not on their own. If Obama is ever going to be impeached, the Democrats will have to be the ones to call for it. Impeachment is a political, not legal, proceeding.
Who told the LtCol to stand down? Who told that person? etc... It’s not hard to follow the chain of command.
If this is all accurate, which I have little doubt, coupled with the lies and cover-up, I BELIEVE IT IS CRIMINAL!
Our President gave orders that got Americans killed by an enemy.
Impeach
Not even that a mascot barks he’s the White House Door mat!
Lies in place!
barry is in rigid diametric opposition to an ideal leader of the free world
All bama boy is, is a buck snatcher....he doesn’t know anything else but raising monies for some stupid causes, he has no brains, that why he’s call “The Buck Snatcher”
