I find incredulous the statement "over 200 Americans did nothing except watch real time video of a 7 hr. attack, at State Dept. and White House Situation room, on about 30 Americans in the Bengazai consulate which killed 4 Americans, the last 2 at the end of the 7 hr. attack and did nothing". I've heard of some video from some security cameras removed by the Libyans after the attack and now in US hands that may be useful. Maybe you are referring to some super secret overhead drone that nobody in the State Department or Congress seems to be aware of? I'm sure the likes of Darrel Issa would be all over that one. Would you care to provide the source of your allegation and its substantiation? I've wondered if you were going to bother to refute the Vaughan Williams article posted a couple days ago. As best I recall you pretty much just rejected the article on the basis that Williams had worked at NPR, as opposed to refuting any of the quotes from named people in the Administration and elsewhere who were in a position to have immediate knowledge of the actual events. Blind hatred I believe generates this kind of thinking, with emphasis on the word "blind". My bottom line is the President did the right thing in immediately starting the investigation to find out what went wrong, why and announce his determination to hunt down the perpetrators. Given Obama's track record on Al Qaeda, those guys that attacked the consulate best be wearing brown pants. I'd be interested to see you sources. 200 Americans watching real time video of the attack and doing nothing about it? Defies the imagination of rational people.
Here's a thought Art, you can either prove me wrong or do some of your stellar DD and prove me right. The President knew in real time it was a terrorist attack, knew within 2 hrs. who claimed responsibility, and those investigting have been met by stonewalling and cover-up to this point. That effort is falling apart as people within the White House cover their rear ends with the release of damning e-mails and the Congressional testimony which contradict Obama's words. It's funny how you accept your intelligence being insulted by a President you support. Like I said, if Bush did this, your news sources would be out raged and rightfully you would be too.
