If it's such a damning story, why didn't Romney choose to talk about it in the third debate, which was entirely focused on foreign policy. He declined to press the case because (1) he completely botched it the first time and (2) there was no case to press.

Isn't this typical around this site. And so many of the the same, are the ones who scream about Fox News.

The one news Agency, everyone should be screaming at is MSNBC the worse of the lot.

Don't you know by now, the evidence the truth, could be right in front of someone's face on this site, they would ingore the truth.

Even when there is a mountain of evidence, some will still dismiss it.

I saw and heard what Steven's FATHER said. On another show, i also heard him say, he wants the truth to come out. He was being interviewed by someone i don't know. He talked about the lack of security, and why it was not given. He said other things also, but i had to leave.

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 is just like the democrats obsession with watergate. guess we will hopefully learn the truth, somehow I doubt it.

Fast and Furious isn't going away. As soon as Holder is removed from power at the Justice Department, he is going down. Benghazi isn't going away either, no matter how much you love Obama. He either lied or was asleep at the wheel.

2. The transparency Obama promised when elected
3. Obama to tell the truth about what happened in Benghazi and something done to keep it from happening again. Either Obama owes America an explanation or some big changes are needed in our national intelligence.
I can agree with your overall assessment; especially involving the media. As I said the Benghazi situation is a tragedy that will be addressed, but how necessarily? I can agree that his response to that attack hasn't been very efficient or enough for the American people but we will never know of much intelligence Obama or any President may ever have on any situation. Unfortunately none of us are Washington insiders, we may know a little more than the average man but far less than the President does. Do you expect him to reveal everything to the American people about the attack, reveal the briefings, his phone calls to the Pentagon, CIA, etc. or any surveillance that may have been recorded during the situation? Hopefully not, it's still a on-going investigation that will need time to be properly addressed. He can't blame Al-Queda for every terrorist attack that happens, it could always be another extremist group so let him gather as much intelligence as possible, see what him and other nations can do to prevent this situation from getting any worse and hopefully prevent anything of this magnitude won't happen again soon. My suggestion would be to add troops to any of our embassies that are in dangerous zones but in politics it doesn't work that way, it's a long, ongoing process to put troops in any foreign land (typically). So just suggest what he could do, please, in fact email it to him to help out.

And honestly, I'm a tough critic on anyone if they deserve the criticism. I'm not completely for Obama, I actually have said frequently on this site I liked Bush his first term, and even supported Obama, Romney, and Gary Johnson through donations. So I play the field equally, in fact today I even backed Romney up on this site when other democrats & liberals were saying he shouldn't have told about his Redcross donation. I'd criticize Bush just as I'd criticize Obama, if he deserves to be backed up, then I'll back him up.

Guy the town over from me won that dam thing a month or so ago. I drive by the place he bought the ticket at once in a while too. All I needed was a flat tire and a desire to buy a lottery ticket at the right moment and I'd be rich!!

The right is definitely playing up this Benghazi tragedy,as i've been out of the country for some time and not up on some of the news, how is the President culpable in this incident? KUchief25 how would you have handled the situation? The only news i've got is thousands of protesters stormed the embassy killing the Ambassador and his marine body guards.
