So then why did you say they will be held accountable if you are 'ultimately' responsible? You always blame someone else.

Let the ultimate impeachment hearings begin.

He is ultimately responsible but he had nothing to do with it.

That's pretty much what he's been saying. Empty words, empty suit, empty chair. The worst president ever and the election isn't a walk for Romney. These are scary times.

Be patient. We will know all as soon as O figures out how to blame Bush.

Let me be clear, I am ultimately responsible, but somebody else is going to have to fall on the sword. I suggest keeping that Youtube video guy locked up for another year.

FTA: "What my attitude on this is is if we find out there was a big breakdown and somebody didn’t do their job, they’ll be held accountable,” said Obama..."

My thoughts exactly, Mr President. See you at the polls.

Zero worked at it and finally got his 'corpsemen.'
Impeach.

He spent 6 weeks trying to create scenarios that Bush was to blame, that Romney shot before aiming, that Romney's lack of knowledge about Middle East prompted the assault and that an obscure videographer was to bear the brunt of the blame. All lies, all the time. And Obama continues his lies by saying that somebody will be held accountable once the election is over. No one has been fired for incompetence, no one has resigned and no one is willing to talk openly and honestly to Congress and the American people. This freak of a man is a disaster, and it will take much soap & scrubbing to wash away his many stains on the country, our constitution and our culture.

Does this big eared Dumbo not realize that he
is the one he's talking about? How many more
days 'till election? Sure seems to be getting
here slowly!

According to The Blaze a source inside the WH has stated that zippy was in the situation room watching his ambassador get killed and did nothing. The same source says that the order not to send in aid had to come directly from zippy and no one else. The lying piece of roach excrement needs to resign yesterday.

"Ultimately"????. No Mr. Obama. You gave the Stand Down orders (3 of them). You were responsible for refusing security in the area to begin with. You are responsible for refusing to help those men during their 7 hour ordeal which you were watching live on video feed. You made the political calculation that you could let them die, and the details of this massive failure would be suppressed by the American media, and your fantasies about Al Queda being "On the run", and you as the mighty warrior, be sustained. (After all, those were your repeated claims during the Democrat's Convention. Your convention.)

YOU Mr. Obama are responsible, then, now, and forever.

So, the next question is, "When are you submitting your resignation letter?"

Wow, that's the best weaseling I've ever heard. He's a really, really good liar.

All he means, you dummies, is of course he is "ultimately responsible" because he's the Big Cheese. However the person who really blew it is Somebody Else who will be held accountable.

And of course Obama can't be held accountable because he personally didn't blow it. So he says.

Geez. What a cowardly liar.

I'm pretty sure he used the "ultimately responsible" line during one of the debates. Yawn.

Lady Parts needs to man up and speak to the nation from the Oval Office and explain sans teleprompter just what the fluck happened and why no help was sent to the beleaguered consulate. If he/she does not fess up then there will be hell to pay.

What you mean "IF," Mister pResident? IF???
You're it. You and your feckless Vice pResident, your unspeakable advisors, cronies, and entertainers, your suck-up senior military people, your behind-kissing presstitutes, and your thoroughly sides honorable cabinet members need to be gone.

Darn autocorrect ... That is DISHONORABLE cabinet.

Romney shot before aiming? Well at least he shot.

We need to start demanding that Butcher/Butcheress of Benghazi need to be impeached.

We have reached the "Blazing Saddles" threshold.

I'm seeing Cleavon Little holding a gun to his own head, hoping to sneak out of the room by saying:"OK....one false move and the (N-word)
get's it".

Ultimately he can care less about the lives that were taken, because they were expendable, and there were only 4 of them.
You know, it's an even number and one of his favorite words when playing golf. Which is the most important thing in his life.
Let's see if he plays a round between now and election day. I bet he flies to Hawaii to survey tsunami damage after last nights events just so he can do some body surfing and play a couple rounds while the hurricane hits New England.

This falls under the category of "duh"... O is the commander in chief for pete's sake, or he's supposed to be.

Yeah, riiiight. Tell that to the father of Tyone Woods, you #@$%^$! Im sure he will be satisfied with your "vow" to get to the bottom of this... and BTW, I thought Hillary was responsible? food fight over who's in charge? If this werent so serious, it would be laughable.

Looks like they have already found 2 scapegoats. General Ham(commander of U.S. Africa Command) and Rear Adm. Charles M. Gaouette(commander of the USS John C. Stennis strike group). Both were commanders in Middle East during the attack, and both let go or suddenly reassigned for "allegations of inappropriate leadership judgment"

FTA: “Ultimately as Commander-in-Chief I am responsible and I don’t shy away from that responsibility," Obama added.
Sure. This is why you blamed a video, the intelligence community, Hillary pretty much everybody. NOW you're ready to take responsibility for your actions? What changed?


If he takes responsibility, it'll come with an asterisk. He's a vile human being.

Security is no longer the abiding issue. Why was there no attempt to rescue is the burning question now. We know the answer, we just want the admission.

He's not ultimately responsible for Benghazi security, he's directly responsible for four deaths.

He's a Bull$#!%er!

No security. No rescue. Big coverup - attempt.

How can anyone vote for Obama. It was a bit understandable before Libya but not now. He was in charge when those four brave American men were murdered and he chose to do nothing. No matter what excuses he comes up with, the blood is on his hands. I will not believe a word he says about it now.

No 28, they will vote for Obama because they are not listening to anything except the music and stupid MSM on the cell phones Obama gave them and is giving them money to pay for them with. Also, there are some people who SHOULD know better but are so liberal, they would vote for a rattle snake before they would vote for a person who talks conservative views. So many people are with Obama in the road to making this a communist country. They want the whole population to be beholding to them so they can tell them what to, when to do it, and how to do it. That is what all the Obama lovers want...........

I swear, if I see Axelgrease and Candy making goo-goo eyes at each other one more time, we will need a new TV.

So, on September 11th, there were men fighting for their lives in Benghazi and all this affirmative action traitor was concerned about was how to CHA and spin this so he wouldn't look bad? Brave men died because of his inaction and the MSM is giving this jerk a pass. Is this what our sons and daughters that are put in harms way while serving this country can expect in the future during an election cycle?

This will be a Profiles in Courage moment for Mika and Joe. Are they going to ask questions or are they going to be part of the cover up? They will be remembered as accomplices if they allow him to bury this till after the election.

There is only one time when a USS Navy ship is not under the command of it's Captain. That is only when the ship is going into drydock. Else, even if he is on authorized leave and it is run aground by his Exec, the Captain is still responsible.
Usually that captain will either be reprimanded or/and censured. He is either never given another command and gets a desk job or he is "asked" to leave the service.

Obama as CIC, even if he is off on some deserted island watching turtles hatch, he is responsible for all actions of his subordinate and field commanders. Only congress is there then to reprimand and censure the POTUS or as in the case of Libyia, where lives were lost unnecessarily by either POTUs or his subordinates not giving aid, POTUS should be IMPEACHED.
Pray and vote for Mitt Romney to be Elected.
ABO Novembe 6 2012.

Obama: "I am ultimately responsible."

Inigo Montoya: "You keep using that phrase. I do not think it means what you think it means."

It is no surprise that he goes on a show with the liberal flack Scarborough. There is no one in the MSM screaming about the lack of leadership on Øbama's part. He'll make some lame excuse and then he and dear old Joe will yuk it up and all will be forgotten by everyone except the families of the dead. He has no place to hide from any one with an ounce of patriotism or brains. When he is really lying he whistles when he talks. Listen for that.

Questions Mika did NOT ask:

"Mr. President, why did you respond to three separate cries for help with the order to Stand Down?"

"Why are you inciting Islamicist rage by 'spiking the football' again with a pre-election movie showing that you killed and unceremoniously dumped Bin Laden's body?"

"Who does Biden think has the biggest balls, you or Ty Woods?"

Oh, Joe didn't ask either.

An apparently knowlegable caller to Rush said that in such an "in extremis" situation, the Africom commander is automatically authorized to respond. If this is the case, it seems logical that the "stand down" order had to come from someone above the Africom command - in other words, the White House.

Don't give me that "ultimately responsible" crap, we all know that. I want to know who refused to help those Americans that died and why they were not helped. Obama is a lying obfuscater that will do anything and say anything to save his own butt.

Naturally he's on MSNBC, the only left wing electronic rag he can count on to protect him during the interview. This whole affair is an insult to the dead Americans and an embarrassment to citizens of this once great Republic.

Meanwhile, a C-130 gunship capable of making a plowed garden out of a square mile surrounding the embassy and several drones circled over the carnage for hours and then were sent home. Imagine being the pilots/operators of those vehicles, knowing you could have wiped out every bearded muslim animal in the area. No wonder Obama has denied the military the vote. Their preference for Romney has to be near %100 by now.

Really? Tell us something we don't already know.

Joe Scarborough won't push for an answer and Mika will well just be Mika. Mika is about as stupid as Debbie Blabber Mouth Schultz and Stephanie Cutter.

I believe Obama thinks being "ultimately responsible" means he's the one that makes sure the guy who screwed up is held "accountable". That's why he began with "finding somebody who didn't do their job" and then saying he doesn't shy away from that responsibility; to hold someone else accountable. To liberals "responsibility" and "being accountable" are two different things when you're the one in charge.

And by the way, what really frosts me is his introduction to the subject, "What my attitude on this is..." Attitude? Attitude?

He'll be getting plenty of attitude on Nov 6 from the Chick Fil-A Underground. (Hat Tip to a fellow Ldotter.)

"After an extensive investigation, we have determined that it was Bush's fault."

Obama acts like an innocent bystander.
Come ON People, we can't allow him to get away with this.
He sold out SEAL team 6, he sold out an Ambassador and 3 others..he will sell out your sons and daughters serving in the military. Obama must pay for the spilled blood.

Obama sounds like OJ.
He wants to find out who the real Commander in Chief is.
Obama didn't just leave them all to die.
He watched them die.
And then he got a good night's sleep.
This is beyond shameful and disgraceful.
It's criminal.

It doesn't require the powers of a Sherlock Holmes to construct an alternative scenario using only the facts we have.

This was a staged event gone wrong. A mob, incensed over a UTube video, riots outside the consulate where our Ambassador just happens to be, and with no deterrence from unarmed foreign guards, lays siege to the building. Obama, (Trumpets Blare!), defuses the situation by having the poor UTube maker arrested. The Americans are freed and our Muslim "allies" are impressed. Obama's foreign policy credentials are polished and he coasts to re-election.

But, something went wrong? The "protesters" either overplayed their roles, or Obama was set up by the Libyans from the start.

Put all the known facts, questions, and coincidences into this scenario. And recall Sherlock Holmes' deduction from "Silver Blaze", aka, "the dog that didn't bark."

Here is my opinion, even though you did not ask for it. I think Obama is so mad ( I did not originally say "mad" in my first post). He is mad that the ambassador was murdered and tortured even though he was only supposed to be kidnapped.

He was supposed to be kidnapped so the "Blind Seik" could be released in a swap for the ambassador. This way Obama could be seen as a hero in foreign policy before the election.

I think impeachment or indictment is in order. Since we are so close to the election, indictment is probably the best option.

There is so little time and so many reasons for jail time.

There, I said it. When Obama loses there will probably be race riots from the "Gimme more crowd".

He will be held accountable in Saluda North Carolina with Tea and a Chik Fil A outside the polling place on Nov 6th.

Still waffling. Still unable to take on responsibility. He never even hinted that the buck stopped with him because that isn't how he reads it. He is a sociopath (I believe) and just doesn't "get it" when it comes to being responsible, accepting responsibility, telling the truth, etc.

So resign tomorrow on MSLSD.

He needn't bother. The American people will hold him accountable on Nov. 6.

Who in hell is in charge of that gaggle of misfits in the White House. The national command authorities had full control and visibility of every asset in the area the night the embassy was attacked, so why is it so difficult to identify who made the decisions not to render assistance. This is a cover up of monumental proportion.

If Mitt had another son he would look like Tyrone.

Any one who votes for this fraud, IMO, is an outright traitor.

Ahhh, excuse me but someone didn't do their job O and all you have to do is look in the mirror to discover who it is that needs to be brought to bear the misguided bungling of a crisis and the murder of four Americans. If you find out? Dispicable!

Even more concerning after finding out that these commanders were "relieved" makes me worry that our own military is about to revolt.

Wonder if Mika will say, "Mr. President, I know what you're going through. My father was a member of the last administration where an ambassador was killed."

The buck stops, very, very reluctantly, with Obama.

At least in theory.

But really, it's someone else's fault.

I blame Republicans. Oh, and the tsunami. And ATM's. And kiosks. And automated phone systems.

Aw hell. Obama will never be be scolded, much less indicted or impeached. The Washington politicians and military brown noses have dirty laundry of their own, and Romney has decided that he must appear "above it all" and once again stress reaching across the aisle in order to win the almighty independents and undecideds. He knows that the conservatives will vote ABO. About 100years from now some historian will reveal how crass 0 was, who ordered the hit on JFK, and whether FDR knew about Pearl Harbor.

Will you also take full responsibility for YOUR OUTRAGEOUS LIES to us also. Sorry "O" but if you'd lie o this what else have you and would you lie about to protect your sorry a-s. This isn't good enough...you just need to bow out of this election altogther. You are not a king and moochelle is not a queen...I'm sorry, I don't remember voting for one but you sure as heck think that way...but of course all would be and want to be dictators think alike don't they?

This is where Donald Trump comes into play. You're fired, Mr. President.

this is typical Obama double speak -- i am ultimately responsible because i am president. but i barack obama am not responsible for the 7 hours during which in real time we denied help and watched 4 good americans be murdered. i barack obama am not responsible for anything bad. and good ole' joe and mika will call that a true mea culpa and a wrap. this is, as BO says, bs.
