About Benghazi
What is known about the terrorist attack on our embassy in Benghazi. The one part of it that no one can intelligently deny. The entire Obama administration knowingly lied to us about the entire affair, in order to keep it from being an election issue. And the press let them get away with it.
You can argue about everything else if you want to, but what I just said is a fact. No one ever believed it was a riot over a You Tube video. And yes the people in that embassy did not need to die, they could have been saved. Someone messed up and that someone was worried about losing an election (Obama)
Were you ever stupid enough to believe that the terrorist attacks and murders in Benghazi had anything to do with a protest against a YouTube video?
Now let the silly efforts at diverting from these facts begin. (they already have begun on one of Xanga’s bigger fools blogs) Hint I am so uninterested in any efforts to change the subject.

really? we’re still talking about this? this conversation is almost like the people talking about how bush lied to go to war. blah blah blah. let’s move on to talk about real problems. like the impending health care crisis in 2014.
@davidian - Its to hard for the averge person to get it through their head that Obama put on a lying campaign and threw a little guy in jail over this. Do you think most people can understand what is happening to our economy?
This administration got away with pointing to an increase in the number of jobs with zero increase in the number of hours worked and calling that good news. What you want to talk about is easly understood by those of us who can understand it. But that is about 10% of the population
He did what he had to do and any Republican would have done the same. You don’t take a job at an embassy in a savage part of the world like that without knowing the risk. These things happen, no sense in crying over spilled milk
Keep it up!!! Love it. This just highlights to the majority of Americans that you folks are outttta yo friggin minds. Keep it up…they need to know you guys are Nutjobs!
A Film, Cartoon Characters of Muhammad, a bad bowl of Tabouleh, militant Islam, Jihad, whatever it was that set these wackjobs off…..it was stupid shit.
Now….you guys (our equivalents of there wakked out religious fanatics) are trying to gotcha Obama with he said it was Hummus when it was really the Tahini ?
It is funny because you have no idea how ridiculous you are being.
@SKANLYN - Cool the first fallacy offered up was “its not important” and your fallacy is the more classical you too fallacy.
SO far two comments and not one of them has addressed the facts. Its ok someone on xanag did an entry entry and never addressed the facts
@tendollar4ways -
I got it you too are unable to address the facts and want to divert from them. I know when the facts are not on your side you need to try and change the subject
@tendollar4ways - Oh shiite!! Do we have to worry about the Tahini now?!?
trunthepaige – The fact is simply your side is insane. The more you push this made up conspiracy of Obama blamed a Film instead of blaming it on what we know now as not sweet enough Baklava….the more it should become apparent to everyone who isn’t outta their minds….that you guys are CRAZY and have completely lost your minds and that you shouldn’t be listened to about just about anything requiring rational thought.
@Urban_Peril – No…I wouldn’t put it past the right wingers to fly into hysterics over a paste. Wait a minute…..you have hit on something here….
Sesame seeds are the main ingredient in Tahini…..What did Romney say he was going to get rid of in the Debates….Sesame Street.
Romney was talking Dog Wistle to the right wing !!!
Protecting us from Muslim Sesame!!!
@tendollar4ways - I got it yell louder and divert more, never a dress the facts….That works well when you are talking to fellow ideologically blinded morons
@Urban_Peril - Dont worry the only thing that most worry about is who is going to win The Voice. The president covering up a terrorist attack and scapegoating some guy, throwing him in jail. Most do not care about that stuff
@trunthepaige - I thought that that was what presidents were for!?! We have ordinary people to be honest.
Lordy…..
You do realise that there were protest going on about the stupid film in Egypt, Yemen and other countries at the same time right?
The dude they threw in jail bilked a bunch of people outta a crapload of money and broke his parole with this making jackass film.
The lack of principals displayed by you guys is relentless. We cannot allow illegal immigrants citizenship because they broke the law! Some jackass who commits bank fraud and breaks the law (his parole) should be allowed to walk free cuz….????
You guys are friggin sociopaths. No Rhyme or reason why you support anything other than What is good for you! Period.
But this is the definition of a Psychopath…which is what the right wing had devolved into…a bunch of psychopaths.
Conservatives just need a hug.
@Celestial_Teapot - We all need hugs I think
)
@tendollar4ways - Sorry guy but if you believe it was about the you tube video you are more the ignorant. Dude no one believed that it was about the youtube vid. And at this point no one is even trying to tell that lie anymore so you can give it up as well. I am not as stupid as you are
@Urban_Peril - That must be it that means its not a problem. Lets see what is on TV tonight
This is one of those topics that reveals who is saturated in the propaganda and refuses to actually think – and separates them from those who know better. Comments above and forthcoming – case in point.
@mtngirlsouth - There is still not a single comment that address the issue. And concidering the number of people who have read it but not commented me thinks they know the cant argue it. They simply do not care if Obama lied. “Bush did it, so can Obama” “they all lie” “What is on TV tonight”
@trunthepaige - Yup. And then they turn around and act like it is such a big deal when someone does THEM wrong, such as lying to THEM or stealing from THEM. But you don’t get to switch around on your standards. If you are going to encourage/ignore a leadership that lies, steals and murders, you can’t turn around and then expect society to condemn it when it is done TO you.
@mtngirlsouth - You and I are just too simple minded, we sort of expect that if we were total hypocrites on such issues, that people might notice. But I guess its all ok because other people do it too. If other do it it must be good. So I am going to murder the next person who cuts me off on the freeway. Its not wrong, I only killed one person, other people have killed so many more
October 21, 2012 – The United States had an unmanned Predator drone over its consulate in Benghazi during the attack that slaughtered four Americans – http://www.nypost.com/p/news/international/us_watched_as_terror_raged_AypAEEA9OK23rPf7Z5BHWO

http://reason.com/blog/2013/05/08/benghazi-hearing-take-away-youtube-video
@mtngirlsouth - Girl you must be a right wing nut job. You are following the news
@trunthepaige - I happen to be wearing a “Don’t Tread on Me” tee shirt this very moment.
@mtngirlsouth - You are gong to end up in the terrorist watch list. Or at least have the IRS after you
Where’s the @sutradude when you need another load of stinky BS?
Little old hillbilly housewife me. I’m SUCH a bog threat! http://mtngirlsouth.xanga.com/photos/e71ac284944689/?album=9351e4555739a51&n=200
@ImNotUglyIJustNeedLove - He has no argument at all. Let me do it for for. “Is this really important”? “They all do it”? “Bush did it” “This is old news, why bring it up now”? He will say anything other than addressing the facts. Its not just him, its all of them. They might as well just be honest and say morality, honesty, is meaningless to them. It only matters that a democrat win
@mtngirlsouth - Well I fear you
)
@trunthepaige - He’s been over at Frog’s blog peddling a story that the entire incident has been thoroughly investigated and those investigations exonerate the Obama Administration.
It’s one of his better hallucinations.
@ImNotUglyIJustNeedLove - Oh that s lovely. Its just what I said “its an old story why talk about it” first stonewall then delay delay delay then call it old news. The fact that it is now proved beyond a reasonable doubt that Obama and his team all lied as a coverup for election purposes…”that is old news” that almost no one reported at the time. And all of his cover story has been blown away it was all a lie
you ask us to address the facts, and yet…
“The entire Obama administration knowingly lied to us about the entire affair, in order to keep it from being an election issue. And the press let them get away with it.”
what do you have to back that up?
@flapper_femme_fatale - 100 % of all the testimony from anyone who was their. No one backs up the Obama version of events. They all say they told them what was really happening when it was happening. Was there another reason for all the lying other than the election? I suppose there could be, but no one can think of another reason. They even sent a guy to jail saying his video caused the riot. When they knew there was never a riot, it was a terrorist attack, that had no relationship to that video. There was no one who thought it was not a terrorist attack. I repeat there was no one who believed the fake story.
You should watch the new video I just posted.
@mtngirlsouth - Myopic.
@trunthepaige - Politicians lie. Big deal.
Reading through the comments on this post just gave me a major head ache…
Let’s just deny everything because it makes “our side” look bad! Woo! Come on. I believe in holding -all- of our leadership responsible for their actions. Regardless of what party or label they wear. I absolutely hate double standards.
@firetyger - there is a reason i said in the entry that i was not going to tolerate efforts to get off the subject. Notice that was the frist thing they tried anyway. Its depressing to see that tge truth has no importance to them
@Celestial_Teapot - i know you like liars
@trunthepaige - Some truths, facts, are inconsequential. And sometimes, inconsequential truths are disproportional seized for political points and towards political ends.
@trunthepaige - Only when they’re blonde and well-proportioned.
it@Celestial_Teapot - bullshit tell that line of crap to the family of the dead. Tell it to the guy these liars sent to jail
Funny that not a good description of Obama. And you love that liar@Celestial_Teapot -
@trunthepaige - Lying about Benghazi didn’t cause Benghazi.
@trunthepaige - No, not particularly.
There is a war going on and the main difficulty is that the enemy is not a nation. One cannot bomb an idea.
My name is Sarah,
i saw your profile today
and became interested in you,
i will also like to know you more,
and i want you to send an email to
my id (sarahzamba237@yahoo.com)
so i can give you my pictures,
for you to know whom i am.
yours Sarah.
What is new under the sun? They lied? They always do. The Administrations always lie. The Obama, the Bush, the Clinton and etc. etc.
It does make you wonder how one politician can get away with something, and the rest allow it.
“What is known about the terrorist attack on our embassy in Benghazi.”The terrorist attack was “natural” because a lot of Al Queda recruits came from that area…duh.
“The one part of it that no one can intelligently deny.” Coded propaganda by yourself to show how smart you are… and since this is your blog you claim all the rules.
“The entire Obama administration knowingly lied to us about the entire affair, in order to keep it from being an election issue. ” Key word “knowingly lied” is not as simple as when Clinton knowingly lied about not having sex with monica. Then again knowingly lied is in the same territory as Bush knowingly lied about weapons of “mass destruction” To equate knowingly lied about no terrorism is bullshit and not in the same category . Libya is the playground of terrorist and that is an automatic given. Work on your definition of knowingly lied, it is a loaded phase which I call on your baloney.
And the press let them get away with it. Really? give it a rest. Rommey got hammered for talking about it too quick.
@Lewis1122 - Rommey did not get away with his reaction to Benghazi. The media helps politicians get away with some stuff but the teflon president Reagan did have the sense of how to get away with a lot of issues. Are you saying that Obama is clueless and gets away easily? no you are just being shallow and not giving politicians credit for being smart and avoiding the political minefield.
@PPhilip -
Dude everything I said was true and you addressed none of it. that was not even a good try at diversion
@carlo -
Yoyrs is called “they all do it” a version of the you too argument. A logical fallacy unless you are you really trying to say lying is a good thing and proper?
@Celestial_Teapot - No it is hiding the fact the this adistratio9n screwed up. And they scapegoated someone else and threw him in jail
@Lovegrove - No one said it was easy. But that is not a reason to lie to the American people scapegoat some poor fool and throw him in jail. all to win a presidential election
@Lewis1122 - Romney tried to bring it up, but a willing press made his telling the truth an issue. All while the lie was simply not talked about. There is no doubt that the majority of the press might as well have been part of the Obama Campaign
@PPhilip - Actually Pphilip I knew exactly why another politician didn’t come forth, my comment was in hopes to get others to ask the same question. Thanks for pointing it out for others.
I didn’t think for 1 second it was because of the video…we all know now it was because of the Baba Ghannouj.
@tendollar4ways - Can you try being sane I know its in you. Reading the BBC on this. its very entertaining you should try it.
What I have read and seen and know is that help was available, and the President simply sat aside and let the murders happen. Someone earlier stated that any Republican would have done the same. Reagan didn’t. Neither did H.W. Bush. Neither did the younger Bush. Had this happened under President Reagan’s watch, I daresay at least two naval battle groups would have been in the area shelling suspected Terrorist positions (like what President Reagan did following the Marine Barracks attack: he sent in the USS New Jersey and a couple of carriers to basically blast the terrorists into oblivion). What did Mr. Obama do? What has he done since? Blamed it on a now-disappeared YouTube Video, on non-existent protests, and basically left the four to die who were murdered.
If President Bush had been in this situation and done similarly as Mr. Obama, he’d have already been impeached and the Mainstream Media would be giving him NO rest. Anybody who denies such is either a gullible fool or a tool for the left….
—jandjinjapan
@Jason Lovelace@facebook - WHat happened is important. but now we know its a fact that they lied about it and covered it up. And that fact is more important
Do you remember Romney’s famous “gotcha” moment in the debates last year? He claimed Obama failed to say Benghazi was a terrorist attack. Romney was promptly refuted, wasn’t he. His gotcha turned into a “step-on-my-dick” moment.
This might be why everyone is laughing at you.
@we_deny_everything - No one is laughing at all they are diverting changing the subject and looking sort of stupid. Are you so ignorant of the news right now, that you still think Romney was wrong when he called it a terrorist attack? You do know that no one is saying it was not anymore? And everyone who had direct knowledge at the time ever believed it was not a terrorist attack. Including the president

My oh my, haven’t you drunk the kool-ade . . . or do we call it barry-ade
Glad I’m not the only seditious writer on the state of the tyrant
@Angry_Infidel - NO you are not. I do not do it alot becuase as you can see. these guys are very intentionally ignorant. But while only 19 commented hundreds read it. maybe the word is getting out. The BBC is stating to wake up
@trunthepaige - who reads the BBC here, btw, are you aware Barry says it’s oky to give Guns and Ammo to Somalia, you know that country that supports piracy and terrorosits, signed it April 5th
@Angry_Infidel - Give the M-16′s odd Obama thinks every nations criminals need gun. But law abiding Americans should not have them
@davidian -
Do you honestly feel that having a commander in chief that a) willingly allowed u.s. special forces operators die needlessly b) lied about it in order to protect his campaign is water under the bridge?
It remains a “real” problem so long as he’s the one in control of our armed forces.
@Ghillies_guide - a lot of bush critics would say the same about the war in iraq and we gave him a second term. history repeats itself. so what? water under the bridge. let’s tackle real problems like the debt and health care.
@davidian -
Your reply, reduced to its absurdity:
Someone else did something just as bad in the past, so it doesn’t matter if it’s happening now either.
Please sir, waive your right to vote, admitting you’re unfit for the task.
@trunthepaige - Well said, madam. The lies, the cover-up….starting to look like Watergate according to some news outlets…ezxcept at Watergate, nobody died….
@davidian - What I find laughable about that connection is that President Bush didn’t lie, and neither, really, did the nations around Iraq who stated clearly that Saddam was working on WMDs (and Coalition Forces DID find huge Cahes of Sarin Gas).
@tendollar4ways - Nobody in Middle East or anywhere else in world had even seen the video.
And every US department including the CIA, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton knew that Al Qaida was responsible for the Benghazi attack almost immediately.
It’s not that you are so ignorant that’s astonishing. It’s that there are 10′s of millions of low information voters just like you.
@Jason - ”working on WMDs” revisionist history, i see. but what does it matter? let’s focus on the solutions to the problems rather than the finger pointing liar liar pants on fire game…. increase spending to security at diplomatic posts? fine. but then we have to either raise taxes or cut spending somewhere else….
@ImNotUglyIJustNeedLove - For someone who believes you should not bear false witness against they neighbor….you sure do love to lie.
http://www.aljazeera.com/video/middleeast/2012/09/20129130543708779.html
You people are friggin sociopaths.
@tendollar4ways - I’m sorry, but only a bloomin idiot would quote Al Jazeera.
That’s like quoting a coke head who is says he’ll quit if you just help him out this one last time.
@ImNotUglyIJustNeedLove - I really wonder what it is like being one of you people. You find any little kernel in your shit to believe it is caramel pudding you are eating.
Outttta your figgin minds.
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/09/15/police-clear-protesters-from-us-embassy-area-in-egypt/
There is Fox News…one you can trust ya shit eater.
@tendollar4ways - Sorry, but the source of your news article is AP, not Fox.
AP, like all drive-by media outlets is a mouthpiece for the leftists everywhere, including the Hillary and the Obama Regime.
@ImNotUglyIJustNeedLove -
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/09/17/hundreds-afghans-protest-near-us-military-base-purportedly-over-anti-islam-film/
@tendollar4ways - Notice the word “purportly” in the news headline.
Whenever you see that word think “Bullshit.”
I prefer to believe the whistle blowers. They aren’t professional liars like your beloved the drive-by media outlets and the Democrats who run the Obama Regime.
@davidian - ‘Tisn’t revisionist history. Here is a list of quotes concerning WMDs in Iraq: http://www.rightwingnews.com/quotes/if-the-bush-administration-lied-about-wmd-so-did-these-people-version-3-0/
And I have a great idea about where we can start cutting spending to provide better Embassy Security: The Affordable Healthcare Act (a.k.a. ObamaCare)
I won’t hold my breath…
Sometimes is necessary, specially people with high responsabilties….like leaders of a country for instance.
@carlo - But does winning an election qualify as necessary?
No. Ruling a country is. (I really wish it would not be like this, but it is. Do you know Machiavelli?°
@Ghillies_guide - You’re talking about half of the Tea Party then. Honestly, what would you like to see happen about the Benghazi incident? You’re not going to get an impeachment. What are your solutions? How about instead of calling liar liar pants on fire, you do something about it? Phone your representative. Take some action. Otherwise, there are 1001 other things we need to focus on right now that are tearing our country apart.
@Jason - Yep, quotes from a bunch of liars. No one said Democrats don’t lie. These all turned out to be lies. No WMDs were found in Iraq. That much is the TRUTH. But same with Benghazi. A bunch of State dept folks lied too, but Obama has to take the wrap for it. My point isn’t whether or not he lied, my point is WHY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT IT? What difference will it make? Why continue this conversation if NOTHING will come out of it? Why not do something proactive to change things. Why just TALK and COMPLAIN? If people in this country spent more time DOING instead of TALKING, we would be in much better shape.
@Jason - http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/dec/02/george-bush-iraq-interview
@davidian -
I guess I’m just not as lazy as some. See, my take is that if there are 1001 other things that need our attention…one more won’t hurt.
Especially when the causes of that one other thing are important.
Who says I haven’t contacted my rep?
@Ghillies_guide - And this is why nothing happens in Washington.
@Ghillies_guide - @Jason - forget benghazi. obama should be impeached for this: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/05/13/justice-department-secretly-obtains-ap-phone-records/ it’s worse than watergate.
@davidian - That one is flat stupid, Obama has been protected by the press up to now. They are going to finally go after him now he just kicked his best friends
@trunthepaige – He’s gone rogue!!
@davidian - this is just what happens when the press refuses to look into anything bad about a politician. It all builds up and they keep getting more and more confident until the press must wake up
@carlo - Yep read it. It was advice to to a young prince. In this nation we intentionally got away from such things so advice to a price well the entire concept in the USA is simply immoral. We do not believe in the bullshit called the divine right of kings. The ends do not justify the means, here we are far better than that.
@we_deny_everything - I was thinking of putting your comment up on an entry as an example really ignorant arrogance. I assume you have been reading the news finally and know how stupid your comment was. Yes it is insulting so I am giving you a shot at saying you would rather I did not use your comment. My thinking is that you would not want to admit this comment was really ignorant and oh so arrogant. So you will let me put it up and everyone can laugh. And I can say you are still standing behind this comment
@trunthepaige -
You’re sure?
