What the diehard, extreme, far right wing Republicans are doing with the Benghazi incident in their efforts to politicize the deaths of four people is a demonstration of their sheer desperation. And it is reprehensible. Fortunately, the right wingers are few and most normal people recognize the reality of what happened and it is not a critical issue in this Presidential election.
This sorry excuse for a president was completely responsible for the four deaths. He knew about it from the moment it started and refused to provide help. Had he picked up the phone, help would have arrived in an hour. Instead he watched the five hour attack and did nothing while four good Americans get killed.
obama loves dead Americans, it makes less work for his brothers. That scum should be in jail for his crimes against America. Instead we just get to retire him back to the sewer he crawled out of.
You are going to love President Romney...

I most certainly agree with your comments! Obama stated that he takes full responsibility, but why hasn't he? It is a huge issue, because Obama himself made it a political issue by covering up the facts so as it wouldn't affect his reelection campaign and lied to the American people and those 4 souls paid the ultimate sacrifice for their country! Anyone would be in a an uproar losing a loved one when it could have been prevented!
The State Dept had the details in real time before and during the Benghazi attack and didn't do anything about it! So, it is a big issue until Obama takes responsibility which he stated he would do, but hasn't yet done so!
Mr President,
Everyone in America is still waiting to all of the unanswered questions you have been dodging throughout your reelection campaign!
And I'm welcome to voice my opinion on the absurdity of this whole Benghazi "flap"
Yeah, but you can't have it both ways. Either you think it's a dead horse issue and you stop posting in the thread, or you continue to discuss it albeit from the frame reference of your losing position. Your choice. Continuing to do both makes you look like a flake.
Pakistan said it summoned the most senior US diplomat in Islamabad to protest against a YouTube trailer for an anti-Islam film made by a small group of extremists in the United States.
There were also peaceful protests in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Iraq.
The worst of the trouble came in Pakistan where the government declared Friday to be Love of the Prophet Mohammed Day and a national holiday as part of an attempt to release some of the anger building among the country’s hardline Islamic clerics.
... Mobile phone networks were also shut down on Friday to prevent terrorists detonating bombs and shipping containers were used to barricade roads leading to diplomatic missions as the country prepared for a day of protests.
... In Islamabad, mosques gave over their weekly sermon to messages of peace, urging congregations to protest peacefully. Bilal Saeed left the Red Mosque to join protests gathering close to the city’s red zone – an area given over to diplomatic missions and government ministries.
... Several thousand protesters clashed with lines of police, who used tear gas and rubber bullets to prevent them marching on the American embassy.
... In Iraq, about 3000 protesters condemned the film and caricatures of the prophet published in a French satirical weekly. The protest in the southern city of Basra was organized by Iranian-backed Shiite groups. Some protesters raised Iraqi flags and posters of Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, while chanting: “Death to America.” About 2,000 Muslims burned effigies of President Barack Obama and American flags in the Sri Lankan capital Colombo after Friday prayers, demanding that the United States ban the film. In Bangladesh, more than 2000 people marched through the streets of the capital, Dhaka, to protest the film. They burned a makeshift coffin draped in an American flag and an effigy of Obama.
The terrorist attack in Benghazi was not the only issue being dealt with.

And in how many of those other protests were a US Ambassador murdered?
