President Obama on Libya - Blaming the Video

Hmm, both of these are days and days after the 9/11 attack on our embassy.  Was Gov. Romney really wrong?  

No Candy, he was not.  Next time you moderate a debate maybe you should get your facts straight beforehand.  

Now, Lets look at mouthpieces of the administration:

Yep, they called it terrorism right away.  

Hillary Does the Right Thing & Takes Responsibility for Benghazi Security Mistakes

Hillary, Secretary of State, takes responsibility for the lack of security in Benghazi, Libya that lead to the death of four men on September 11, 2012.  I find this to be refreshing that someone is finally saying, hey it is my fault that the security wasn't better.  

Since I live in the DC area, I know many people who work for the federal government.  For some reason most that I know do work at The State Department.  Many of those work in the embassy security division.  I have one person who I have known my whole life who recently retired.  While at State he went around the world to all our different embassies to install, update, and address all kinds of security issues.  This staff doesn't normally fall into the staff that changes by administration.  These are professionals that are there regardless of who is in office.  They are not political appointees.   Ultimately the decision about the security was made by this department.  

The chances are it never even hit Sec. Clinton's desk and there is no way that a decision like this was made at The White House.  The chances that they were even aware of the request being turned down is about nil to none.  

Now, that doesn't absolve President Obama from the problems.  There does need to be an investigation into the thought process that went around why a consulate office in a city that has known ties to terrorists and extremists was not given better security.  It seems like a no-brainer to those of us on the outside.  We need to get to the bottom of why this request was denied.  

My biggest concern at the moment is why the head of the department has not been fired.  Four innocent people have lost their lives due to a very bad decision.  While I am sure this person feels awful, that it isn't enough.  The diplomatic corp needs to have assurances that they are going to be safe while they and their families are travelling abroad.  Until a very complete investigation is undertaken and completed, I am not too sure that I would feel all that safe while I was in hot spots across the world.  

DaTech Guy has some interesting commentary on Hillary taking full responsibility on Benghazigate.  You don't want to miss it.  

Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is Truly Delusional - Video

How this woman ever became the DNC Chair is beyond my comprehension.  I agree that saying something that turns out to be false is not being misleading, it is being wrong (Ahem, WMD in Iraq), the problem is that the evidence clearly shows that they knew all along that it was a terrorist attack and did not tell the American public the truth.

If Obama Loses WaPo Does the Rest of the Country Follow?

Is President Obama losing WaPo? They don't seem all too thrilled with how he is handling the situation in Libya.

Mr. Obama has spoken only once in public about the Libyan crisis. He has yet to condemn Mr. Gaddafi by name. He has not called for an end to the regime. He has expressed concern about protecting U.S. citizens - most of whom were evacuated from Libya on Friday - but has showed no intention of protecting the Libyans whom Mr. Gaddafi is slaughtering. The White House appears content to allow France and other nations to take the lead. But the reality is that as long as the president of the United States remains passive, the help Libyans are begging for will not come.

Not only did they go after the president, they also spoke some truth about the U.N.

But by late Friday the most notable measure he had announced was the dispatch of Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton for a discussion at the feckless and discredited U.N. Human Rights Council - on Monday

Wow! That is a sentence that will make the heart of any conservative go all a flutter. While I am sure that they wouldn't want to go as far as I would and stop giving our hard-earned tax dollars to an organization that is Anti-Semitic among many other things. The United Nations has become a joke. The fact that they Libya on the council for human rights says everything that anyone needs to hear. They have long ago walked away from the original charter (which I fully support) and have fallen to corruption and bigotry to do its business.


It seems that President Obama has decided that he is going to follow behind the U.N. and Nato. Two organizations that can't seem to do much of anything unless the U.S. leads. So, I guess the people of Libya will continue to be slaughtered in the streets until Obama figures out what should be as plain as the nose on his face. He wanted to be the leader of the free world, so isn't it time that he stands up and leads?
