i pretty much do that, and ask "what service of the US" anyway?

somebody has to stand for the soldiers, and point out that while they are dying WE AREN'T WINNING ANYTHING.

obama continues to arm insurgents and americans continue to die.


the LEAST the families deserve is the truth, and at least some effort to protect the soldiers who are being placed there in harm's way.

as well, how many more do we have to read about dying in a similar fashion in afghanistan? do we have no THINKING leaders? don't keep doing the same thing and expecting different results.

the soldiers may be "in a fog" due to actual combat conditions, but the leaders aren't supposed to be.

Even a month after all our people are dead and buried, we still won't be able to pull our heads out of our butts. The fog of war is no longer an excepted element of combat and war, it's now become an excuse to do nothing.


Sad, but true!

Unfortunately lying to the public is not a "High Crime and Misdemeanor" so he couldn't be impeached for just lying to us. Clinton lied under oath, different situation called perjury.
Now I could see criminal negligence or something along that line for allowing it to happen to begin with without doing everything (or anything for that matter) in his power to stop it.
At this point the only thing that can be done is at the ballot box.

Once the lie is out. Of course they will decline to talk about it! Guess Mr. President you should have been upfront with the American PEOPLE from the beginning.

Which was exactly 2 hours after the planned attacks and death of 4 american citizens,.

I rather have the truth, no matter what that truth is, then the lies that went on for weeks thereafter. When you know the truth of that matter, how dare you and your administration, continue to lie.

What a doozie of a lie

You said it perfectly the truth will always do less damage then a mountain of lies. Obama will not only go down as the worse president in our history, but will now go down with Nixon as the biggest liar to the American people. This only proves that he cares more about himself and his job then the innocent deaths of 4 Americans. Mr President, just in case you didn't know it, but the number 1 job of the president is to protect the American people. You failed in every aspect of your job.

the LEAST the families deserve is the truth, and at least some effort to protect the soldiers who are being placed there in harm's way.

as well, how many more do we have to read about dying in a similar fashion in afghanistan? do we have no THINKING leaders? don't keep doing the same thing and expecting different results.

The problem is he was busy trying to get re-elected....

Yes, the families need the truth, not the video story Hillary gave the Navy SEAL father

If we do not do something about this, it will happen again & again....

The Administration needs to answer for this!

And Obama needs to be FIRED!!!! We cannot afford 4 more years of his golf playing, expensive vacations, etc.

Obama left within 24 hours of the attack to a fundraiser in Las Vegas, his priorities are sooo messed up!!

And he knew what had happened!!!

SHAME ON YOU OBAMA, YOU ARE A DISGRACE!!!!
