Democrats Back Away from Obama on Benghazi

Paschendale said:
I didn't say that we should remain calm, or that all is well. There's a lot of things that are messed up, even just in the subject of Middle Eastern policy and the War on Terror. There are plenty of areas where the Obama administration is doing wrong things and needs to be taken to task for them. This just isn't one of those things.

Guantanimo, for example, is. Unconstitutional surveillance is, too. Drone bombing an American citizen? That, too. Let's talk about real issues, instead of made up scandals.

Those are different topics for a different thread. The point I'm making is that the more that comes out, the less this looks like a "made up" scandal. And it is really kind of silly to call it that at this point, with all this info coming out recently from the people that are now talking, unless you've been under a rock. It's the cover up that gets them.

In 2014? When even less people care about it than they do now? Face it dude, only people who care about this are on the internet. :shrug:. Most of the population wouldn't even know what it was about. Good luck linking it to every other Democrat come 2014.

You are referring to the "low information" voter, that is so critical to democrat success. Yep, if there is a huge scandal, even an impeachable one, it doesn't matter much if the voters don't know about it. That's what democrats count on.

That remains to be seen. Like I said you'll know depending on how they react.

As it stands, Democrats won't reclaim the house. At most they'll gain a few seats. At worst, they'll continue the pattern of an exiting president's party losing seats. So how exactly will you measure whether "Benghazigate" had any effect? I'm dying to know.

Good evening, Bubba. :2wave:

Chances are good they will check the wind direction, and decide then. Depends... as you state. :cool:

To be more accurate with your non-sequitur, it hurts us all that Obama won. Especially those killed in Benghazi.

Yes, yes, we know. Benghazi was Obama's fault. Just as 9/11 was Bush's fault. :shrug:

Obama planned Benghazi to get back at Libya for insulting his father?

That's what the faux outrage crowd would have us believe with their bitching. They're one birther away from saying Obama himself dragged the ambassador's corpse around the streets of Benghazi.

I think I will just let this thing play out. As a military man who has worked with state, I know state does not like security or the military around. There has been many instances throughout many administrations where state, even if warned about possible trouble would deny security from the military for our embassies and consulates. That is nothing new. State views their job as diplomacy and help people get visas etc. State thinks a bunch of military people in and around the embassies and consulates will stop people from coming in to do their business. They believe talk will make friends and influence enemies. Where as the military's job is to kill people and break things.

I never said it will cause his impeachment, it may however make him an impotent pres that nobody takes serious if it is discovered he was elected undr false pretenses, if he coverd up a huge mistake and lied in order to get elected. This may be his undoing.

With any luck at all he wont run for a third term.:roll:

Did they blame Bush yet on this? Probably saving that one. But, I'm not following , the official word from the White House was that it was a YouTube video. Obviously, the strategy is misdirection, or the really smart "Uh, is this still in the news?" and hope it goes away, even in this thread.

How do you think those Navy SEAL's felt on the night they took out Bin Laden ?

None of them liked Obama and how do you think they felt that they helped reelect Obama ?

They said they mentioned that while on the MH-60 after the mission.

Talk about combat PTS, can you just picture the dreams these SEAL's are having at night that they helped reelect Obama.

It was Bush's fault ???

I could have swore that it was Clinton's policies on terrorism that caused and allowed 9/11 to happen.

Unless we are suppose to ignore OBL first Fatwa and ignore Clinton's policy that Al Qaeda was a law enforcement issue, not a national security issue. Don't forget Attorney General Janet Reno's "WALL."

Unlike Obama who spent four years blaming Bush, Bush didn't spend eight years blaming Clinton for his failed policies on terrorism.

If your uninformed, you might want to revisit Mogadishu, Somalia to understand why OBL decided to attack America on it's own soil. Start with Bin Laden's first Fatwa as a starting point for further research and then go back to Mogadishu.

Interesting but until the expert testifies under oath and all sides get to question him taking the word of Issa seems a bit much for now.

As for the meeting, why in the much less secure consulate and why on the anniversary of 9-11?
Click to expand...

To bad it's not the Word of Issa.....its the Word of the CSG. Who says they were never called or Consulted. I don't think any can get around what they were created for.

As for the meeting.....just what would have happened if it was discovered that we were giving weapons to the Syrian Rebels.....after Obama said Publicly we would not. What do you think happens should we get busted out for doing so?

Myself I wouldn't even try to think for what Team Obama was thinking or why they felt they needed to have Stevens meet the Turks Envoy in Benghazi. No sense in even considering wrongful thinking.

Yes Benghazi is Obama fault.....Just as this Anniversary of 911 is Obama's fault.....Just as his Failed Foreign Policy is His Fault.

Not even close.....since most of what I have put up has come from the MSM & Foreign New Sources.

Course I have always taken Pity on those of the left.....as they have always been about that Cross-over and Carry. Must be hard work always taking one step forward and then two steps back.

Just do us all a favor, don't stop the meltdown for the next four years. Yeah, i would like a new topic instead of the loser benghazi thing, but I am sure on of these days obama will rue the day he ever ran for president. I am sure that you will defeat him in the next four years. Remember that if all else fails claim that they set up term limits just to stop Obama. I am sure that will go over about as good as any of this other stuff.

Melt Down? Try Reality Check.....it hasn't stopped. That's why Obama has been getting slapped around in this 2nd term of his. So it really don't matter what issue. As his Obamacare is all being torn up. Lost on the Gun issue. Has a failed Foreign policy from his First term and has worsened with his 2nd. Oh and there is that economy thing.

Course once he is done.....then his Kool Aid drinkers will be all that he has. Hoping he will at least be listed down as an Average President.

As the Democrats.....will be the First ones out blaming his azz for what he did. Already they are upset with his Political Action Movement and his term isn't even over yet. :lol:
