Maybe because US Pravda keeps ignoring it.
You don’t seem to understand that it would take principled, honest journalists to bring these matters to the fore.
What we have today is simply government owned propagandists who value only their ideology and their access to the white house.
Without an honest open news media, there isn’t any discussion.
Izvestia and Pravda correspondents in the USSR era acted in the same way, owned by the Soviets, bought and paid for by the leaders.
The lefty writers and editorialists value their association with the leftist ideals and nothing is going to change that.
Until they finally find they cannot write anything at all that even slightly disagrees with the Administration, they will continue to approve even the NDAA, drone killings, the placement of drones in the US skys, all TSA invasions, the establishment of a civilian SS in the name of Homeland Security
and yes, a president who thinks that blatant lying to the citizens time after time is acceptable.
You forgot to type the ‘h’ in sitting president!
From WikiPedia: Cannon fodder is an informal, derogatory term for military personnel who are regarded or treated as expendable in the face of enemy fire. The term is generally used in situations where soldiers are forced to deliberately fight against hopeless odds (with the foreknowledge that they will suffer extremely high casualties) in an effort to achieve a strategic goal. An example is the trench warfare in World War I. The term may also be used (somewhat pejoratively) to differentiate infantry from other forces (such as artillery, air force or the navy), or to distinguish expendable low-grade or inexperienced soldiers from supposedly more valuable veterans.
The same reason he gets away with everything else. He can do no wrong and the media refuses to hold their first black “president” accountable for anything.
Only the second?
What do you call the rules of engagement for American forces in Afghanistan?
Share my sources or drop it? Really? I have read the staged kidnapping scenario on several sites. You missed that explanation? Get up to speed before you tell me to drop it.
Why is Obama getting away with the Susan Rice distraction?
Because -
1. we are stupid?
2. we let him distract us every time and never learn?
I’ll take your advice and “get up to speed”. Share your sources, name them.
Here’s one.

I received this from a friend of mine and perhaps some one amongst you FREEPERS may want to opine on this subject.
I have heard about this one before and I do believe this to be about as close to the truth as it can get as I wouldn’t pass anything by this individual who currently is occupying the white hut. Perhaps some of you may recall that it was Senator Chuck Grassley from Iowa who blew the whistle on the gun running scheme under the name Fast and Furious. So I forwarded this article to him and asked him to check this out and see if he could be of some help. If I happen to get a reply from him I will pass it along.
There is a saying in the German language which goes something like this...” A ceramic jug gets carried to the well in order to get water just so may times before some one drops it and it breaks” Sooner or later I hope this occupant of the white hut pulls one stunt too many and hopefully it will become his Waterloo. If this happens to be true and I do believe it is, for some one to get elected and in the process have some of our people killed, he deserves to hang.

Subject: FW: Surprise Gone Bad A MUST READ!
This is from a friend that now lives in Virginia. He husband is a retired navel officer. DB
I am just sending this to a few, from a General friend well versed in intelligence.
According to sources in the State Department and the CIA, and intercepted communications from the Muslim Brotherhood, Obama “staged” the attack in Benghazi in order to create a monumental “October Surprise” that would guarantee him re-election. Yes, you read that right, and no, I’m not making this up. Obama, we now know, is and has been working with the Muslim Brotherhood secretly to engineer the release of the “Blind Sheik,” Omar Abdel Rahman, the mastermind behind the 1993 World Trade Center attack. In Obama’s October Surprise, he intentionally set up the consulate to have no security so that Chris Stevens could be kidnapped, and held for ransom by Al-Qaeda (and the Muslim Brotherhood). Then, several days before the election, the plan was to trade Chris Stevens for the Blind Sheik, making himself look like a hero, and all but guaranteeing re-election. This was one of the top reasons why Obama was so insistent on the Muslim Brotherhood getting $1.2 Billion in U.S. Aid. They were to have a primary role in getting Obama re-elected. That is why, even though they knew days before the attack that it was going to occur, no effort was made to bolster security. It was intended to be non-existent. The Libyan security forces were intended to quietly slip into the night when the attack began. And they did, just as planned. That is why, even though 2 C-130U gunships, which were built SPECIFICALLY for this kind of attack, and which could have saved the lives of our people there and were a mere 45 minutes away, were never scrambled at any time during the attack. There was to be no resistance whatsoever. That is why there were not one, but TWO armed drones flying over the consulate during the conflagration... our CIA operatives on the ground were painting targets because they knew air cover was available. That is why, even though requesting support and backup three times, their requests were NOT ignored, but were intentionally, specifically DENIED three times, and they were told to “stand down,” which basically means to “surrender.” That was part of Obama’s plan. They were not to fight back. That would potentially undermine the kidnapping effort and cause unnecessary “complications.” That is why, even though the CIA operatives and ex-Navy Seals were on the ground, providing real-time reports, and even though they were “lighting up” the source of the mortars attacking the compound with lasers, no gunships or support ever came. They weren’t supposed to resist. That wasn’t “part of the plan.” It also wasn’t part of the plan for one of the CIA operatives to intentionally defy Obama’s orders, and who rescued the body of Sean Smith and then stood up again orders, and engaged the enemy who was attacking American soil. It was supposed to be “clean.” Quick. Efficient. Kidnap the Ambassador and get out. Then Save The Day in the “nick of time.” They didn’t factor in a tiny group of highly trained ex-Navy Seals/CIA operatives... American Patriots and heroes. Even though they eventually lost their lives in the firefight, they managed to employ the full measure of their skills, and took out over 80 attackers in the process... which enraged the attackers, who were led to believe that they would encounter no resistance. THAT is why Ambassador Stevens was raped, murdered, and dragged through the streets. In their warped minds, they believed that they had been betrayed by the U.S. yet again. They believed that Obama was their friend. They believed that they were going to get their beloved Blind Sheik back. And yet, here were 80 of their own... dead by American hands. Obama was asked directly in an interview if he denied their request for assistance, he refused to answer, and instead droned on with a canned response promising to “bring those responsible to justice.” Former CIA and State Dept. personnel are coming out now with damning evidence that indicts President Obama, and reveals the truth about what is going on. Hillary Clinton, who is now openly laying the blame at the feet of the President, after falling on her sword in a premature show of loyalty for the Administration. The “Video” defense was carefully crafted WEEKS in advance, to explain the attack. If this doesn’t outrage you, you are not a Patriot. If you are not moved enough to contact your congressman about this, you are not worthy of your citizenship.

WOW! If that’s all you have, you would have to want to believe that.
