Easy to separate whitewash extremist rhetoric from responsible (adult) reality. If extremist Republicans were making accusations as adults, then they also said who directed the attack. What was the attacker's name? They don't know and they don't care. If responsible, those extremist would say who did this attack - by name. And why we should have known an organized attack was coming.
Tomorrow is the day one of Mohammed's sons died. So we should expect an attack? Yes - according to extremist rhetoric. They provide no facts. They use hindsight to prove Obama, et al should have known. And emotion to incite the most ignorant citizens. Wacko extremists invent myths and fiction to brainwash and inspire the naive. No facts. No numbers. Not even a name. Extremist do not care about Americans or dead ambassadors. Screw the country. Political power by brainwashing naive citizens is far more important. No facts. No numbers. No names. That alone says they purpose is only self serving. Ironically, these are the same people who destroyed American jobs by enriching the rich. Using similar myths based only in hearsay, wild speculation, or fiction. Wacko extremists. Informed citizens understand another fundamental concept - "fog of war". We still do not even know who organized and directed this attack. Fog of war remains. And yet extremists, without relevant facts, would cast blame. |

No lamplighter, what I was disturbed by was the whole tone of the web site. Before it was emphasizing military power and readiness - and in fact, they flew many missions into Libya and the Balkans (during the Balkan conflict).
Now, the web site emphasizes environmental projects, base amenities, personnel issues, etc. Their motto "Anywhere, Anytime", is no longer even displayed. |

So far, you haven't convinced me.
There are a lot of mottos at Aviano AF Base, and at other military units. but at least one of them had a sense of humor... |

By the way, the Benghazi event is no longer of serious concern in Congress.
McCain has dropped it and gone on a secret mission to Syria. We know it's was secret because he was not on the Sunday talk shows this past weekend. |

I suppose so, it's true though. Radical Islamists in one country and Radical Islamists in another country don't just equate to the same faction. They are broken into factions, groups, organizations, loose ties, no ties, families some only marginally related, some not related at all. In Syria alone there are hundreds of different groups and factions.
So yea, arm a group of Islamists in Syria and Islamists who don't give a crap about what we are doing in Syria might attack us in Lybia. It's not rocket surgery to see this picture, it IS rocket surgery to try and figure out the link analysis.

Extremists will immediately *know* facts by entertaining their emotions. Or by being told by extremist talk show hosts how to think. Moderates first learn facts. Facts from Benghazi confirm what moderates were saying.

The ridiculously partisan article which was written to help Hillary distance herself from her largest hurdle for the presidency. Her utter lack of leadership and her part in chosing to let them die. Where was Obama that night anyway? The NYT article, so uselessly quoted by the bloviating one, was resoundingly refuted by D's and R's alike on the intel committee. The strawman in his argument is also pathetic.
Moderate .... bwahahahahahahahaaaaaaa..... thanks for the laugh.
