Just for the record......MORE soldiers have died in Afghanistan under Obama's watch (in only 3+ years) than did under Bush's watch.

Kind of ironic that he hammered Bush and McCain for LESS deaths than he's responsible for isn't it?

Since Romney actually said the same thing as they (Washington) did 9.5 hours afterwards, then what this actually shows is that Romney's statement SHAMED them into releasing a similarly worded one themselves.

No media spin can change that fact.

I believe this article is close to the truth, although Shi'ites are the more tolerant of the two. It is the Sunni's that seek to kill, or enslave, the non-muslims, and they include Shi'ites in that group. They say the Shi'ites seek progress and that is against Allah. The Wahhabis are Sunni.

Because he READS THE REPORTS!

He doesn't rank our national security very highly.

He believes idealistically that we should trust people who are scheming to kill us.

Who is being naive now?

He has inside information we're not privvy to.
OFGS!!!
Of course he has 'inside' information! He's the president!
What's funny is, YOU think you know better than the president (with all his inside information)!

I wonder if he has actually had a face to face briefing yet. Is he back from Vegas? What an empty suit.
Actually, Obama replaced the briefings with "daily exchanges". The President reads the materials and poses written questions and comments to intelligence officials.

You ever get tired of drinking the same koolaid over and over again?

I suspect the Obama crowd didn't know what was going on until after Romney made a statement. I may not have been shame, but it should have been. Though Oba-meh looked like he'd been whipped by Hilary when they appeared in the WH yard to make a statement.

Also, Obama said that EGYPT IS NOT OUR ALLY! Sounds to me like that was "shooting first and aiming later" like he accused Romney of.

Seriously......you'd expect even Liberals to care about the murder of a career diplomat.

But no....they say it's a faux outrage.
