G, apparently you did not watch the Benghazi hearings recently on CSpan. I did, and the whistle…Read More blowers made it abundantly clear that there was never any question that it was an "ATTACK" by terrorists, and had NOTHING to do with a "demonstration" over a lame video, as lied about by S. Rice, Obama and HRC! They concocted this story because the truth, that Al Qaeda is NOT "defeated" or neutralized, as O claimed, would have been inconvenient for the election.
It is utterly reprehensible for a president to heartlessly leave our men behind, to send NO aid or support, if only to get the bodies out--and under other presidents and the military as it has always been--you "DON'T leave your fellow soldiers (or diplomats) behind!"
O gave (or assented to) TWO orders to "Stand Down" and NOT fly in with aid from Tripoli or Sicily!
And G, what is your opinion of a president who condones the TARGETING of conservatives, with thuggish, illegal tactics of INTIMIDATION by the IRS!?
