| Following on their meeting with UN Ambassador Susan Rice, Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC), John McCain (R-AZ), and Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) released a statement bashing her performance and stating that President Obama had serious questions to answer about Rice’s statements in the aftermath of the Benghazi terrorist attacks that resulted in the deaths of four Americans. The text of the statement: We respectfully disagree with the White House’s statement today that ‘there are no unanswered questions’ about Ambassador Rice’s September 16 Sunday show appearances and the talking points she used.

YOU! have not asked obama where he was! You! know he was the one to stop the rescue!
McCain and Graham... ask him directly or if he refuses to meet then ask publicly.
You won´t because you are helping with the coverup. You are just like David Petraeus.

We have three stories now. Clapper, the FBI and the CIA did it. Meanwhile the locus in quo has never been properly investigated. The administration won´t release the photo´s of the situation room. If we knew who was there and who wasn´t it would be invaluable. There would be liaison officers present representing various agencies, it would be nice to talk to them. And the purported terrorist mastermind is sitting in a downtown Benghazi hotel sipping Orange frappes without a care in the world. Mindboggling.

Nothing is going to come of this. America is not the country it once was that held people accountable for their actions, including the president and his administration. This is the most corrupt administration in the history of America.

IF Obama did give the order to save the Ambassador and military attache and Seals there MUST be a written order...SHOW IT...Just SHOW THE ORDER...LIAR
Report exactly WHERE was Obama at the time of the attack???...7 hours...
Why was Obama running missiles and armaments through Turkey as a conduit and into Syria ???
Why was the Turkish counsel there in Benghazi???
30,000 Missing missiles and Manpads launchers,,,WHY??? Is this Fast and Furious II Missile Running??? Why was the KNOWN Arms Dealer ship at Benghazi´s port??? This is traitorous SEDITION is the president is arms running...And if to as thought an enemy, Al Qaeda, of the USA?? We have a traitor in the WH...
Ambassador Stevens was raped as reported because the USA stood by and let our supported rebel forces rape Kaddaffi...PAYBACK by Russia...
Is this a proxy war with Russia...it would seem so, as Russia is angered with our turn over of their allies Libya and now in process Syria, to the Muslim Brotherhood...
Was Russia sending us a message on Election Day with RUSSIAN NUCLEAR SUBMARINES off our East Coast.???

Republicans need to do a Google search on the meaning of beating a dead horse..Getting the truth on Benghazi or spending cuts in the fiscal cliff are two big examples. Obama won with both these issues on the political map,meaning people don´t care about either.
Why is consumer confidence suddenly at a 5 year high? Supposedly it´s because the jobs picture is getting brighter.Sorry but I don´t buy that explanation,it´s pure propaganda to convince people the economy is getting better.We´re still seeing 365-400,000 people getting pink slips a week.
If consumer confidence is getting better,it has to be among Obama voters who see no interruption in their flow of government benefits.
If the jobs picture is getting brighter as this conclusion purports,then why are left wing groups clamoring for more unemployment extensions?

I think Zippy has as much as admitted he is the culprit.
Please recall his words at that press conference: “If Senator McCain and Senator Graham and others want to go after somebody, they should go after me.”
What we took for an inappropriately chivalrous riding-to-the-rescue may well have been the admission that he scrubbed the talking points Rice "presented" on those 5 Sunday shows.
We got all distracted by the inappropriateness of his tone that we weren´t listening to his words.
As for where Zip was during the firefight in Benghazi, I maintain that happy hour that evening got a little too happy. The ship of state was without a captain.

Look, I hate to be this way, but the only way to get this country to begin to care about Benghazi is to have all four families call a news conference and demand Obama come clean. Without that, nothing will happen. Zip. Zero. Nada.

It is shocking that there is not ONE moral member in Congress of the democrat persuasion. If I was a loved one of one of the victims, I would be out there talking to anyone who would listen. I know they have broken hearts, but I would want to expose those who allowed him to die and refused to send help. I would take this battle on, for the HONOR of my loved one, and the HONOR of my country. They died for it, was it in vain?

I don´t see this as throwing in the towel YET! They are soft as Charmin, but they have no backing by the MSM or the courts and must tread softly. I´m not sure these "investigators(?)" are smart enough to have laid down a long term plan, but if they keep the pressure on, eventually the truth will come out and hussein will be Nixon II.
We hear about the four Americans killed on a daily basis which was due to a most despicable act of cowardice by the CIC, or was it? But these deaths go far beyond the deaths of four Americans. There were thirty or more others that this administration was willing to sacrifice, or maybe did sacrifice. What happened to them. Did they even get out and if so how? Where are they and why haven´t these "investigators(?)" gone looking for their testimony.
To even consider that OUR Nobel winning commander in chief (far from it in reality) was willing to throw almost forty Americans on the pyre of self-agrandizement is beyond comprehension except within the framework of "siding with the muslims." He´s proven he´s not only willing but has in fact has done so with Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, and now Gaza and Syria. He needs to be holed up in Gitmo with no chance of legal representation.
He IS a traitor!(IS needs no clarification.)

I doubt we will ever know all there is to know about this, about F & F, about all the capers of this most corrupt and reckless Administration in the history of the world.
And I think we are whistling Dixie if we honestly expect anyone in our government to even attempt to get to the bottom of it. They are great at kicking the can and doing photo ops, and are worthless to America and to the American people.
Neither do I think it is important to know WHY the Benghazi slaughter was deliberately allowed to happen. It was preventable, yet it happened. That´s all we need to know really.
What I DO think is important is that we get this poseur out of office, start hanging some people out to dry, and that includes incompetent and worthless Republicans as well as ALL the Democrats in office.
Officials prefer to just move along rather than get entangled in real problems. If we want solutions, we had best look to ourselves for those solutions as they will come from no other place.

I suggest we de-fund our worthless, but very dangerous federal government. It has bankrupted the nation, is responsible for countless deaths, has removed more freedoms than most people even realized they had.
The buggy whip wore out its welcome and necessity, and so has the US government. If we people are too helpless to manage our own lives then let the states look after us - NOT the US government.
A LARGE segment of the American public are beginning to seriously upset me.

Exactly #10. There was no consulate in Benghazi, it was a CIA operational headquarters to move Libyan weapons to Al Qaida. Which was to be move said weapons to Syria. Russia put a hit on the Benghazi operation. Thus dead CIA Seals and an ambassador. And of course now the cover up for weapons running to terrorists.

#10 thanks for the Canada Free Press article. Why is it that we have to read the truth from papers and websites not in the USA? I think Doug Hagmann has asked questions which finally are getting to the bottom of what/why Benghazi happened.
Regardless, though, the fact that four Americans were murdered when all it would have taken to save them would have been to deploy our own nearby forces. Obama and his administration are guilty as hell of treason and murder - aka "high crimes and misdemeanors". Can anyone say Impeachment time?

Obama won´t answer any questions about anything. They will have to get to the truth without him. However, we all know the truth. It was Obama that gave the stand down order. It was Obama that let his employees die because of his failed Middle East policy. Hillary won´t tell the truth either. It will be a slow process, but we will find someone that will talk.

We will refuse to mail in tax returns, refuse to patronize known Obama supporters, including TV, and doctors could refuse to care for any but life/death emergencies. Our demands? Immediate criminal investigation of exec and congressional branches plus D of J. The investigators would be the governors of all 50 states with powers to subpoena try and convict. Whoops.

The America Rising PAC, recently founded by Mitt Romney’s former presidential campaign manager, is planning to deliver a letter today to Maryland’s comptroller urging the state to investigate why Markey has never paid state income taxes there despite living in the upscale Chevy Chase suburb for two decades, the Herald has learned. Markey’s residency status has been dogging him throughout his career, ever since the Herald reported in the early 1990s

But an official cause of death and closure of the case is not likely for four to six weeks or perhaps longer, they said. Coroner´s officials are hoping the results will answer why the accident happened. Officials were attempting to match dental records to help make a positive identification. The death of the 33-year-old Hastings was announced Tuesday by his employer, BuzzFeed,

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago. However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down. Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded

Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Listening to Barack Obama give his speech in Belfast on Monday, it was hard not to stifle a yawn. I kept waiting for the part when he would say something interesting, but, about three quarters of the way through, realised it wasn’t going to come. Judging from television pictures some of his young audience felt the same, after the initial rush of euphoria of receiving the rock star president in their midst had passed. This is not surprising, for we had already heard this number about the inspirational role of the Northern Ireland peace process and the Emerald Isle’s

This is the thirtieth anniversary of the publication of How Democracies Perish, an analysis of the spread of world communism by Jean-François Revel, one of freedom´s most serious French defenders since Tocqueville. At the heart of this work, Revel details "The Tools of Communist Expansion," among which the most relevant for understanding our current situation comes in Chapter 16, "Ideological Warfare and Disinformation." The profound simplicity of Revel´s nuts and bolts account of totalitarianism´s Cold War advance, far from being obsolete

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.
