I’m watching FoxNews. I either heard it there or here.

I cut my finger a few minutes ago, and I’m having a hard time typing. I’m going to go for now.

It isn’t serious, but I’d like it to stop bleeding before I go on.

I’ll come back.

Thanks 2ndDivisionVet, but...

They just mentioned this on Greta;

TRANSCRIPT: Presidential debate on foreign policy at Lynn University

Obama “Now with respect to Libya, as I indicated in the last debate, when we received that phone call, I immediately made sure that, number one, that we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm’s way;”

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

I am not sure what it means, but I do know this. No matter what kind of BS spin Obama throws out, Chaffetz went to Libya (I said Iraq earlier. Sorry-brain fart) and spoke to people and knows what he was told.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Greta is on this now. Said the rest of the show will be about this.

[MestaMachine]

It’s him. Look at his nose. I could post the pic but it’s extremely graphic.

Obama has gone to war against the SEALS.

He’s not gonna win this one.

[Steely Tom]

Thanks for that link TE. Unbelievable, simply incomprehensible. Where did the order not to shoot come from? Panetta? Hillary? Obama?

Take care of yourself DO. Get back soon.

Obama “Now with respect to Libya, as I indicated in the last debate, when we received that phone call, I immediately made sure that, number one, that we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm’s way;”

If that's true then someone disobeyed a direct order from the POTUS.

It's not true.

[bigheadfred]

obama is a murderer.

[tobyhill]

Obama thought that the American people would just buy the video to blame hook, line and sinker.

[FReepaholic]

...The kidnapping of Ambassador Stephens is becomming more and more likely to be the operational plan being hatched by Obama. The blind sheik would have been exchanged as he had already committed to. Unfortunately for Stephens and Obama, the level of resistance exceeded the expectations of that which the plan needed to succeed. To me, it's the only explanation. ...

This was going to be Obama's "October Surprise". He would be the hero, getting our Ambassador released.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Bing West just said if things happened as Obama said there would have beeb a written order which passed from the Joint Chiefs through the chain of command.
There would be a paper trail the entire way.

This reminds me of 0bama deciding NOT to retrieve or destroy the drone lost to Iran except this time it’s people instead of drones. Typical 0bama. He votes ‘present’ so as not to offend Muslims and to protect them from collateral damage as Americans die.

There may very well have been good reason to not put more US lives and expensive assets at risk in what the military probably rightly suspected to be a Russian/Syrian/Iranian trap. Note that the fighting went on for many hours when it could have been over quickly. Was that designed to sucker the US into a much bloodier ambush? If it was a state-supported and well-orchestrated attack, then Pentagon planners would have had to anticipate anti-aircraft threats to a C-130 or a Blackhawk Down situation for would-be rescuers. Here’s a pretty good take on how that would have evolved, linking the attack to Russian exposure of the US effort to move arms (including chemical weapons) from Libya to Syria via Turkey: http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/5058

Rush military caller says that Obama ordered no response to Benghazi attack video 12:21

Listen to that and I think you will have your answer.

Obama “Now with respect to Libya, as I indicated in the last debate, when we received that phone call, I immediately made sure that, number one, that we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm’s way;”

Obama didn’t say “we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm’s way” in the second debate;

Transcript of Second Presidential Debate

OBAMA: “So as soon as we found out that the Benghazi consulate was being overrun, I was on the phone with my national security team and I gave them three instructions.

Number one, beef up our security and procedures, not just in Libya, but at every embassy and consulate in the region.

Number two, investigate exactly what happened, regardless of where the facts lead us, to make sure folks are held accountable and it doesn’t happen again.

And number three, we are going to find out who did this and we’re going to hunt them down, because one of the things that I’ve said throughout my presidency is when folks mess with Americans, we go after them.”

It's not just the pants that are different in that image. There are additional wounds visible (above left eye)and a lot more blood soaked into his hair . If Stevens was transported to the local ER for treatment, why the hole in his forehead above his left eye near bridge of nose? Why is his head saturated with blood? What are the blood stains on his abdomen from? None of this was visible in the first photo.

Tallies in ‘stan track lasers and infrareds using cell phone cameras

Seems farfetched that laser and IR can be tracked with the visible spectrum camera on a cell phone.
