Well, we know the FBI is not in Libya, so at least someone is there.

The White house and especially the Press Secretary have hidden behind the non-existent FBI investigation, so as not to answer any questions, or to find out what happened on their own.

The east coast is in terrible shape, and most citizens are more concerned about our own country than some GOP attempt to act like there was some massive coverup. You'll all stop caring on November 7th.
It's not about the event, it's about the lying. If it's not a big deal, then why the cover up? Why not just say "we messed up" and take responsibility.

So far all, or most, of our information is coming from the congressional investigation and leaks from career state department employees, not much Obama can do about them.

Besides, Obama has essentially been conducting himself as if he and the entire White House are acting under Executive Privilege.

If nothing, you are consistent. "filthy animals"? Very classy.

You're damned right I'm outraged. Anyone who cares about good government and taking care of our people would be too.

Ask yourself this: Did it take seven weeks for the details of the Osama bin Laden raid to get out? No. We had pictures and gloating immediately from the White House. There is a coverup going on here. Unlike Obama's lemmings, I don't like being lied to.
If it was so clear, cut and dry, we would have heard the WH's version by now, as opposed to the deadly silence coming from the administration.

Do i have the essence of what all this talk of Benghazi is about?..


A few other questions i'll toss out.
What is it that Obama could have done when he first heard of the embassy being under attack,?
Where is the nearest American military contingent in the area and what does it comprise of?.
Why are you asking questions on a forum when you can find all the answers if you search on the internet? You can get your answers, and more, as well as catch up.

You make the most sense. No big deal, nothing to cover up, everything went smoothly, which that is a big lie.

You don't lie, when there is nothing to lie about, you tell the truth, imagine this concept!

You lie thru your rotten teeth, while looking straight into the camera" and get every one else in the administration, to tell the same rotten lie.

Do you not beleive in principles and what is right, that goes beyond politics. That is something you are taught.

He could add them to his hit list.

I hope it all leaks like a sieve. Some people of courage and honor have already done the right thing. I hope others will speak up as well.
