yes, their families, and the nation, need answers and we owe it to everyone to keep this story alive until we get answers.

I wonder why General Ham very quietly resigned. Scapegoat?

A bit more behind the story:

TRR: Is a General losing his job over Benghazi? - Washington Times

For obvious reasons the author cannot mention who his inside military source is. BUT, you know how that goes: discount sources if you don't like the info the source has.

The point is, we know that someone said to stand down. The president stated that he sent out a presidential directive to do all we could do, to rescue those people, and for seven hours no one, except two men from the annex, went in to try and rescue them.

It's like an orphanage catches fire, the governor tells every firehouse in the city and county to do all they can to rescue the people inside. For seven hours, not one fire truck moves. Finally, after four hours go by, a retired fireman and a fire inspector for the state grab CO2 extinguishers brave the flames, but die in the fire.

There goes that damn Faux News, repeating rumors and making up lies again.

There were 3 men - let's not forget General Ham who was relieved of his duties 30-60 seconds when he either told the powers that be "*********" and was going to ignore the stand down order. Maybe he was given a choice: retire and keep your benefits, or be dishonorably discharged without benefits. The man was a military career man.

If Romney takes the election it will sure be interesting to see how the pro-Obama mainstream media will swim against the tide trying to get into the good graces of his administration. They sure don't want Faux News getting the scoop first.

Why do you think President Obama didn't send in help? Are Fox viewers the only ones that know about the emails?

Yes, because the e-mails don't exist, the people who appear on Fox who have different opinions (ex-military), the father of Tyrone Woods, are all make believe. Add to that, Benghazi never happened. Only Romney supporters see them.
