CBS and MSNBC Journalists: Biden’s Libya Security Answer Could Mean Big Trouble for Obama
The Blaze ^ | 10/12/2012 | Jonathon M. Seidl

Posted on 10/12/2012 7:56:14 AM PDT by nhwingut

As the dust of Thursday’s vice presidential debate settles, one of the storylines of Friday morning is Joe Biden’s bold statement that the administration was not told that officials in Libya requested more security before an attack that led to the death of several Americans, including our ambassador. The fact-checkers have found that to be patently false. And now, even the mainstream media is predicting it could be a problem.

I'm going to post a link to the comment page and ask you to go there and click a "recommend " for the man's comment. If we get enough recommends, the WSJ will post a link to the comment on all the comment boards. It would go like wildfire.

See, like I said, Obama has this problem and her name is Hillary. Hillary has figured out she is gonna be tossed under the bus for the "security" issues" (Or lack thereof) in Libya.

That is why she held the conference call and disavowed the "youtube killed the Ambassador" meme (Sung to the tune of "video killed the radio star.") It was a shot over the bow of the SS Barry Hussein.

Biden's "we weren't told about Security issues" is the return shot from Obama.

If any of you still have the debate on your DVR go back and watch that part. Biden delivered that line like a pro. Which tells me it was practiced. And if it was practiced it was discussed and honed to perfection. And Barry Hussein had a part in that debate prep as well as Axelrod and all the rest of the Bowery Boys who work on the campaign.

Hillary and Barry are in a shooting war!

From last night's transcript...

Biden: That’s why I said we will get to the bottom of this. You know, usually when there’s a crisis, we pull together. We pull together as a nation. But as I said, even before we knew what happened to the ambassador, the governor was holding a press conference — was holding a press conference. That’s not presidential leadership.

Emphasis mine.

I thought the exact same thing during the debate - Syria is much smaller geographically than Libya. I wish Ryan would have called him out on it.

Joe Biden is a one-man target rich environment. Paul Ryan only had so much time to respond (and he kept getting interrupted).

“...Videos at link... Not only did Uncle Joe lose the debate, he dug a deeper hole for Obama relative to the Libya scandal. #Karma...”

He was just singing the party line. Don’t have to be a rocket scientist to see that.

Yeah, they didn’t anticipate being rushed into any action, before they had time to allow the situation to “develop”. Romney blew their whole plan out of the water by making that statement. As Cutter said, “None of this would be an issue if wasn’t for Romney and Ryan.” Thank God for Romney and Ryan.

The MSM is capable of shame? Blatant in your face liberal lies can’t be given a pass any more with the internet fighting back. What a hoot.

You think Biden really did think this plan would ‘unite’ Americans once it cooked up all the way they planned, uninterrupted? Man, he is slow.

Simple Joe made a HUGE mistake by throwing the Intelligence community under the bus to save Barack Hussein Obama’s (mmm mmm mmm) hide. They are NOT amused.

Their people were thrown under the bus AND murdered in Benghazi... I'm sure they understand the ONLY thing that matters is the reelection of Obama. They'll overlook the murders, the betrayals, the weird people put in charge... the communist overtones to everything...

Biden is not a deep thinker, he only believes what he is told to believe. Heck, I doubt that Biden was even part of the NSA discussion, where they made the decision not to take any action until the next day, let alone understand the reasoning behind the decision.

It’s easy to say you weren’t told when you buried your head in the sand and did not attend any of your recent security briefings.

Some other thought on what was going on in this thread....May actually be a combination of your thoughts and those posted on this thread.
