Did they want him killed? THAT I find incredibly unpleasant..difficult to swallow.

I think more of a combination of gross incompetence, and mostly..unwillingness to acknowledge an ongoing terrorist attack. He's in the midst of campaign mode, and a central theme of his stump speech is "bin Laden dead,Al Queda on the run'. As the attack unfolds, so does that theme. Stand down, hope for minimal damage, spin a false narrative about protestors...and hope if disappears into the back pages.

Yes-

It was a failed "false flag" event. Stevens was supposed to be "kidnapped" and Obama would come to the rescue, gaining the praise of the nation and delivering the election to him. The appearance of the Navy SEALS messed up the whole plan and caused it to go terribly wrong. Why else would the "terrorists" have been using US weapons? Why would there be no attempt to use available military assets to assist the Ambassador? Why the need for a cover up?

When everything is discovered, Obama will probably do some jail time, unless he gains a pardon from Romney. It might be best for the nation if Obama was pardoned, such that everyone could focus on the economy and just be thankful that he is gone.

If Obama is smart, he will resign before January and have Biden pardon him.

Get back to me when the impeachment hearings get underway, OK?

I forget...

Which was the bigger scandal, fast and furious or Beghazi?
