It puts an entirely different (doublespeak) meaning on government "by, for and of the people."

Again, a coverup would have real reason. What is the best reason given for the coverup by the true believers?

The administration didn't want to label the tragedy as a terrorist attack 2 months before an election.

That is it. Except attacks against the nation tend to rally people around the President, so it probably would have helped the President to be full bore with this a terrorist attack.

But see that is the thinking in the reality based world.

You keep on believing though.
Try again. Do you really think Obama would have been helped by a terrorist attack...by al Qaeda (who were supposed to be 'on their heels')...on an embassy that had been BEGGING for more security that they didn't receive?? Exactly what reality based world are you in?

That wouldn't be so bad except that the Obama admin funneled arms to militias and fomented revolution in order to replace the previous dictator we installed.

"We don't get in the way of democracy."

Yeah, right, you're the most transparently antidemocratic president in U.S. history.

It took them two weeks just to admit that it was a terrorist attack, it wasn't spontaneous and it certainly wasn't due to the video.

Why you folks keep completely ignoring that and making me repeat data that has been presented over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over, points to the fact that you just want this whole debacle to go away.

I'll take your side for 1.2 microseconds and give you some advice. If you want it to go away stop responding. Otherwise you just keep bolstering the fact that Obama lied and even in the face of overwhelming facts and data he continued to lie. He even lied to you when he "won" that second debate because the most competent Harvard Law Review president backed by numerous CFR neoconservatives continued to blame The Videoâ„¢ two weeks later.

Remarks by the President to the UN General Assembly | The White House
September 25, 2012

And on this we must agree: There is no speech that justifies mindless violence. (Applause.) There are no words that excuse the killing of innocents. There's no video that justifies an attack on an embassy. There's no slander that provides an excuse for people to burn a restaurant in Lebanon, or destroy a school in Tunis, or cause death and destruction in Pakistan.

Where in the excerpt of the Obama's UN speech did Obama reference Libya or Benghazi? Are you aware that people were still being killed in demonstrations involving the video in late September?

With apologies to Smash Mouth, I keep hearing this lyric in my head when I read posts by certain posters in this thread: They were looking kind of dumb with their fingers and their thumbs / In the shape of an "L" on their foreheads.

Keep arguing among yourselves about how scandalous it is that the president didn't use a word or two that you think he should have. You losers are not worth any more time or effort.

We're done here with the 1984'esque talking points and doublespeak.
You can't disprove a belief. You believe. The facts are available for anyone to see and those facts refute your beliefs.

Hence I write in all sincerity to keep on believing.

Yes, I think the public rallies behind the President following terror attacks.

It is amazing really, they are focused on this or that word choice and that is their proof that this was a coverup.

Oh they said it was an attack of opportunity instead of pre planned. He said terror attack instead of terrorist attacks.

It is a continuation of the make believe fantasyland of skewed polls, birthers, President Obama as socialist, radical liberal, etc.
