Nothing there. Just three real time pleas for life saving assistance. Pleas that were denied three times. Nothing there but a total abandonment of U.S. personnel by the U.S. government.

Whatever happened to 'leave no man behind?' I take it from Mother Jones... nothing.

Nothing there, no interest, no responsibility.

General Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.

General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.
Sounds like Mother Jones isn't interested in helping either.

Have you noticed in the Obama ads in the frames where it says OSAMA BIN LADEN IS DEAD they only show SAMA BIN LADEN.......... LOL

And does anyone else remember for when about 6 months ago, even FOX was spelling it USAMA? Now it's back to OSAMA?

Obama and his entire administration committed treason. It is unthinkable that the CIA operatives 1 mile away were told to STAND DOWN TWICE! Absolutely heartbreaking, those brave, handsome young men who volunteered for our country on the PRESUMPTION that the American government had their backs, all the resources in the world, and Obama turned his back on them. Benedict Obama, Benedict Biden, Benedict Clinton, Benedict Rice, Benedict Carney, Benedict Panetta and every one of those spineless, lying cretins.

Oh and btw, remember when it was announced that Al Quida's 2nd in command was killed in a drone strike?

SURPRISE! NOT DEAD!

Al Qaeda figure comes back to life in Yemen – CNN Security Clearance - CNN.com Blogs

But I'm pretty sure Ambassador Stevens, Tyrone Woods, Glen Dougherty and Sean Smith are really, most sincerely, dead.

Nevertheless, the fact is that their statements were usually properly cautious; the YouTube video really did play a role; the attack was opportunistic, not preplanned; and it doesn't appear to have had any serious connection with Al Qaeda.

I get that it's a nice opportunity for Republicans to score some political points in the runup to an election, but really, there's not much there there.
Where's your link to the Mother Jones article?

Our hearts are with the families of brave Americans your President Kardashian turned his back on. He has American blood on his hands and he will pay for it at the voting booth.

Who the heck is President Kardashian?

No, President Obama does not and this is not going to be a critical issue in the Presidential election.

I would suggest that your "hearts" are entirely focused on trying to beat Obama by any means you can, which includes trying to use the deaths of 4 people to stir up emotional reactions. Your continued efforts at a "plaintive call" regarding these four people have no ring of truth to them.

Every single President in the history of this country has blood on his hands. Hope this helps!
