@Topic:

If Obama didn't call the Libyan President to thank him for the sacrafice of the Libyan people killed in the attack, I'd call that disgraceful.
I concur.

However, I get the feeling that for some, the fact that Libyan citizens died protecting our Embassy is a rather inconvenient truth.

The Martin Zimmerman comment regarding the death of Martin...definitely did not have any forethought - "If I had a son he would have looked like Martin" - to para phrase.................That was the most racially divisive statement you could make. He foolishly said....I am black and a young black was killed by a WHITE guy...what's wrong with his thinking? Could it be that he fires off comments without thinking because everyone has said what a wonderful speaker he was- and it has gone to his head...Vocal tone is one thing- substance is another.

None of us are clueless in knowing what these people want, and they want Americans dead, they want this Country destroyed, that is not fake outrage, that is real outrage.
It's only viewed as a way to mock the president. At least, that's what I'm reading here. Not too much mention of the people who died, just that IT'S ALL OBAMA'S FAULT.

THAT is called fake outrage!

What the EMABSSY IN CAIRO said:

"The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims — as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions,"

This was NOT cleared by the Whitehouse.

The Secretary of State Clinton released the following:

"I condemn in the strongest terms the attack on our mission in Benghazi today," Clinton said in a written statement received by The Associated Press at 10:08 p.m. "As we work to secure our personnel and facilities, we have confirmed that one of our State Department officers was killed. We are heartbroken by this terrible loss."

Then the Romney camp released the following:

"The Obama administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks,"

The next morning AFTER it was confirmed the ambassador had been killed in the assault, the President said:

I strongly condemn the outrageous attack on our diplomatic facility in Benghazi, which took the lives of four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens"

Later the same morning, just before a tribute by the President in the Rose Garden, Romney held a news conference:

Romney was pressed about whether he would have made his Tuesday night statement if he'd had complete information about the situation in Benghazi.

"I'm not going to take hypotheticals about what would have been known what and so forth," Romney said. "I — we responded last night to the events that happened in Egypt."

Romney looked like an ass.

The OUTRAGE is that ANYONE would thank the guy who FAILED to stop the murder of these Americans...especially when I'm sure Obama knows as much as I do that there is a very good chance that the guy being thanked helped in the murder.

WE are outraged both by the murder and the idea of thanking someone who may well be complicit

This is quite true and embarrassing as this happened right around the time he gave the 60 Minutes Interview.

"Inaccurate" is me being polite. Your OP is an absolute lie because of the interpretation that you give that is supported by ZERO evidence:

The video doesn't support this. The article you linked to doesn't support this. You are simply lying.
