Good catch. But in a situation like this there is all kinds of false information being disseminated. This is just like a war.

I'm willing to wait until Petraeus says something himself. No anonymous sources.

Not only that, at hearings the other day Charlene Lamb said that she was watching the attack in real time on her laptop, I think from the security cameras inside. WTF? (I don’t normally say that, but this time it’s required.) She could see it going down and did nothing to stop it? There were also reports of a drone overhead filming it! FILMING IT?!? But no fighter jet sent to help these poor souls? This is just the most unbelievably wicked plan that anyone could have hatched.

It makes me think that whoever planned this despicable thing knew a) that the Ambassador and whoever else was there with him would be killed b) they would do nothing to stop it c) the consulate would be ransacked and intelligence would be taken and d) they would do nothing to stop that either. Who is really running the State Department? Hitlery and Obozo are pointing fingers at each other. At this point they both seem like incompetent idiots who have been fed info on a need-to-know basis. Is there someone else who is pulling both their strings?

There is going to be a shortage of popcorn as long as this is going on.

My first thought when they were pushing the video was F&F 2.0. An operation to take out the 1st Amendment. I’m thinking now that they saw that as a side effect and not the reason for the operation.

Why would they get out of bed to monitor it when they set it up to happen? They probably gave orders not to be disturbed. If the reports are true that a drone was filming it, they would see the whole thing in the morning in a re-run. It would also explain Obozo’s callous journey to Las Vegas to participate in a fund-raiser the next day.

Fox’s Catherine Herridge has been reporting on this fiasco from the first. She is an ace reporter and I don’t believe that she would misquote or misunderstand.

the Ds will never have the opportunity to cleanse their party of Commies and Pinkos if they don’t do it right now.

Just as they've done to the nation, the Commies in the Democrat party have nearly destroyed the party of the left. Americans of good conscience are leaving them in a steady exodus. Soon enough, there won't be enough of a Democrat party left to win elections. Look at what they already have to do to 'win'.

In my view, the reason the numbers are getting so bad for Democrats, is because the rank and file (bless their hearts) are just now figuring out that their party's been stolen from them by hard left Marxists. That's really not what they signed on for. Zero and crew hate America. They're vile, divisive, ineffectual, inept, crooked, deceitful, and embarrassing. And so you see the numbers of the Independents growing - and most of them are voting for Republicans.

Here's what I see. The labels have been damaged. Who knows what a Republican or a Democrat is anymore? When's the last time you proudly proclaimed yourself to be a Republican? I've forgotten how long it's been since I last did that. Heck, my younger brother doesn't call himself a Democrat. He calls himself a 'progressive'. I don't know what my more moderate kin call themselves these days. 'Independent' perhaps?

wouldn’t put much if any credence to Hillary and Bill taking any negative steps against Obama and/or his enablers. Both are part of the Chicago/Soros/international cabal that decided Obama would be the POTUSA instead of Hillary this time around. The cabal believed that it was the time and possible that a person of Obama’s history could be more effective than even Hillary in giving the USA to Islam and internationalists. Hilary was told to sit down because the cabal had enough on both Clintons to make their lives miserable if not short.


I agree with your analysis 100%. Hill will take the fall for Benghazi while o claims success in defusing the Iran fiasco. Hill looks like a loser, o looks like a leader..criss/cross. The only unknown is Israel..if they strike Iran before the election, o is burnt toast.

Col. Hunt on the Newest Libyan Revelations (huge coverup!)

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2944272/posts

see Post #14:

“For six hours the entire military, intelligence, diplomatic and civil command structure of the United States government watched, in real time, as our consulate in Benghazi was under attack, while our ambassador and his hobbled security died.

That command structure did nothing. Afterward, they lied outright to cover-up their own culpability for political reasons. An intelligence failure, under the circumstances, was impossible.”

Thanks to Gritty and billys kid for posting this info.

The David Shippers story is straight up true.

I haven't had as much time as I'd like to spend on FR - so I don't know what the David Shippers story is. Real curious about it, though!

maybe finally Bill and Hill will release the dirt we know they have on Odumbo.

And perhaps Obumbo knows were the Clinton bodies are buried and it is stalemate.

Klein was just interviewed on FNC by Uma Pemmaraju. He has private sources “inside”, and verified that the Clintons are pretty much prepared for this attack. Bill is pissed since he’s been laying the groundwork for Hillary in ‘16. Uma asked if Hillary has “lawyered-up”; he didn’t say she has but you got that feeling.

DITTO to all you said,even the WTF, indeed.

What I want to know also, is what Chris Stevens was doing in Benghazi on THAT particular day, (sent/set up) the embassy is in Tripoli, so why did he go to Benghazi AND WITHOUT SECURITY. This smells.

I think he was SENT there for a MISSION, if you know what I mean. BACKFIRE, GADS I HATE THE CLINTONS AND OBAMA'S, you can't imagine how much they disgust me.

I pray they get what they deserve, they won't get what we think they deserve, but I'll take whatever.

CONGRESS do your job for once, or these two will come back to haunt you over and over and over. Go, Trey Gowdy, sic em. He is furious and I think he will get answers.

I agree. Curbing the 1st Amendment is a nice opportunity as a side effect but not big enough to justify an op this big or this risky. The splash back is already threatening to take them down.

Promoting the "Arab Spring" is obviously one of their goals but something more specific was the aim here.

I think I was right then. The pResident and the Sec. State had to have been notified that the attack was occurring. What did they do when they got the call? Hit the 'snooze button?'
