Obama’s Benghazi remark a new low (FLASHBACK, November 8, 2018)
boston herald ^ | November 8, 2018 | Adriana Cohen

It’s bad enough former President Barack Obama and his then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton left four Americans for dead in Benghazi the night radical Islamist terrorists attacked the U.S. consulate in Libya and nearby annex on Sept. 12, 2012, taking the lives of Winchester native Glen Doherty, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Ambassador Christopher Stevens.

But with the sixth anniversary just days away Obama’s remarks couldn’t be more ill timed or insensitive to the victims’ families, who will suffer through another painful anniversary missing their loved ones.

In an outrageous partisan speech delivered at the University of Illinois Friday, Obama sent shockwaves through the social media stratosphere by dismissing the outrage over the 2012 massacre in Benghazi as the result of a “wild conspiracy theory” perpetuated by conservatives and Republican members of Congress.

Talk about #FakeNews

First off, you don’t need a Harvard degree to know that the flag-draped caskets of four dead Americans that arrived at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland two days after the attack had nothing to do with any “conspiracy.”

starts dumping on DJT at 20:00 but the Benghazi statement is brief, in the midst of a screed against DJT from 29:00 to 40:00 I gave up listening to this liar/

The illegal war to overthrow the government of Libya had GOP backing from McCain, Graham and Rubio.

For some reason, McCain had them all impressed over his war credos... Sounds like the latest outbreaks of McCain's help working with the Dossier will put the final nail in that coffin.

Well past time for a 1 million man pee on his grave.

It’s REALLY interesting:

We’re now flying more Marines over to calm an Embassy takeover effort led by a guy who in 2011 was an Obama Whitehouse visitor..!

Don’t you find the parallel with BENGHAZI as interesting..?

In that one, the attackers arrived at the gate —which was OPENED for them— saying, “Dr. Morsi SENT US”, as if the Embassy attack had been PRE-ARRANGED.

Don’t you find the parallel interesting..?

It’s as if ONE former Presidential Administration is using foreign troops to attack another CURRENT Presidential Administration.

Actually, they left about 30 for dead...it was because of the heroism of two of them, both former Navy Seals, that the rest were able to escape.

I remember when the Iranians knew how to break down an embassy door. Starbucks is our secret weapon.
