Another Grieving Benghazi Father Demands Answers From Obama

At work so I am posting without comment as this speaks for itself. PatriotUSA

AMERICA DEMAND ANSWERS!

THE BLAZE:
 
Smith, a former U.S. Marine, like many Americans, is also angry over the lack of honesty and transparency from the Obama administration following the Benghazi attack. He reportedly reached out to Rep. C.W. Bill Young (R-Fla.) and asked for help in getting to the truth. The father found a willing ally.

“He wants answers. Just like the rest of the country,” said the Congressman.”They want to know why these American heroes were asking for help and being denied the help?”

Smith had reportedly been estranged from his son for more than 10 years, but the dad was trying to reach out to his son before he was killed. “I was trying hard,” he said.

However, some good may come out of this unthinkable tragedy. Smith plans to connect with other family members in California, including Sean’s two children — his grandchildren.




“I loved my son very much,” said Smith. “He was extremely intelligent. And he did not deserve this.”
Ray Smith’s son may get permanent memorial at the Bay Pines V.A. Hospital, according to Young…

Screw Facebook – Upload This Pic – Anti-Obama Benghazi Meme Gets Censored From Facebook 


Upload this pic and spread it far and wide…

Blaze – Facebook reportedly took down an image, or a meme, posted by the Special Operations Speaks PAC (SOS) that was critical of President Barack Obama’s handling of the terrorist attack on the U.S. compound in Benghazi. You may have actually seen it before it was taken down —it had earned roughly 24,000 “likes.”

The meme, which can be seen below, shows both Obama and deceased al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden with the following message: “Obama called the SEALs and THEY got bin Laden. When the SEALs called Obama, THEY GOT DENIED.”

“We leave nobody behind”except in Benghazi

So Obama is stopping his campaign to concentrate on helping the victims from Hurricane Sandy?

Why is there a podium with the presidential seal at a Red Cross function if he is not still campaigning?

Why did Obama say this: “we leave nobody behind” referring to the victims of the storm.

So where was Obama when our people called for help from Benghazi?

Asleep and then headed to Las Vegas to campaign for another term while the blood of four Americans permanently dried forever, on your hands 



Why did he say this? The president made clear that he expects his team to remain focused as the immediate impacts of Hurricane Sandy continue and lean forward in their response.”


The left has the nerve to criticize Romney for being at a FUND RAISER for the victims of Hurricane Sandy and speaking for a very brief time only about and to the victims of Hurricane Sandy

Not Presidential material: Obama AWOL on 9/11/2012 but there for Sandy

Obama is trying to act so presidential in the wake of Super storm Sandy.

This is an epic fail and it is all about votes. Nothing more, nothing less. Where was Obama when Benghazi was happening? In bed, that is where he was and probably alone. Who would want to be with him after turning his back on Americans like he did on 9/11/2012?

Perhaps Clinton, Rice, Powers, Jarrett?

What if a couple of those four individuals who died in Benghazi had been Black??

That is so racist of me but just had to toss this into the fray.

 How can anyone vote for this loser, liar and hater of America and Americans?

"Democrat pundits are all over the airways today saying that many people will be swayed to vote for the president if he "acts" presidential in his response to Hurricane Sandy. He must have listened to them because he is really making sure he is on top of it and is doing a good job of "acting" presidential. If anyone can disregard the myriad failures and lies of the president and his administration and vote for him based on his response to this single event they must be a ZOMBIE!"

Daniel Greenfield's Take on Benghazi

Gary Fouse
fousesquawk
http://garyfouse.blogspot.com



Hat tip Frontpage Magazine and National Review Online



There are a lot of theories floating around the Internet as to why we didn't send in our planes to attack the attackers who were storming our consulate and CIA annex in Benghazi last month. One theory, based on an anonymous source, suggests that the administration was trying to cover up some funneling of weapons to the Syrian opposition that the Russians had gotten wind of. I'll need more documentation and named sources before I go with that one.

Daniel Greenfield, however, writing in Front Page Magazine, has a very plausible explanation. The last thing the administration wanted was our military flying into Libya and strafing Libyans from the air.

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/dgreenfield/why-our-forces-were-told-to-stand-down-in-benghazi/

We already know that Defense Secretary Leon Panetta was in the White House with the President within an hour of the start of the attack. Panetta subsequently has taken the position that it wasn't wise to send American troops into harm's way without knowing what the situation was. Yet, on October 26, the President told a Denver interviewer..........(Hat tip National Review Online)

“The minute I found out what was happening . . . I gave the directive to make sure we are securing our personnel and doing whatever we need to do. I guarantee you everybody in the CIA and military knew the number-one priority was making sure our people are safe.”

Where is that order, and if it was made, why was it not obeyed?

Does it stretch the imagination to suspect that Panetta was given his instructions on what not to do from the President? The theory  may be wrong, but Panetta can be asked the question by Congress. Is there a reporter out there who will dare to ask the same question of the President?

Certainly not Brian Williams. He had his chance and he blew it-purposely in my view.

Sacrificing American lives: Obama ONLY cares about what he personally finds valuable

Benghazigate has proven one more time that Obama is incapable of leading or taking charge of a crisis or situation either domestically or internationally even when American lives are at risk.

Obama received that dreaded phone call at 3:00 AM and he did NOTHING. He went to bed and the the next morning jetted off to Las Vegas for a fund raiser.  Obama is  not a leader and he lacks the courage, guts to make a call to save American lives.He cannot even lead from behind as he proved when we supposedly took the' lead' behind Europistan in overthrowing Gaddafi. We should not have ever gotten involved with Libya.

Benghazigate has forced me to do something I rarely do and that is take a break from PC for a day 
(yesterday) because  Benghazigate has me so upset and rattled. The LSM, especially PMSNBC, CBS and ABC are refusing to report much on Benghazigate and not too hard to know where that order is coming from.


First part of the next feed is from Canada Free Press.

At the end of the feed there will two links about Ty Woods who asked Where the F--K is Spectre and one more about a warning that some of us voiced concern over one year ago on September 7th, 2011 about weapons loss in Libya and falling into the wrong hands. PatriotUSA

Benghazi, Libya—Biopsy From a Malignant, Failed Presidency

By Kelly O Connell



Whatever happened to Barack the world’s smartest leader and incomparable statesman? Those days are gone forever. Instead, it would be impossible to catalog the staggering list of ill-advised, mistaken, foolish, naive and utterly inane decisions by Obama and his administration. So, instead—let us use a single Obama catastrophe, the events of Libya—to critique and symbolize his failed tenure. This is reasonable because every bad Barack habit and evil instinct is represented in this new American disaster.

In the November 2012 presidential election, America is given an opportunity almost no other country suffering under tyranny is offered—the chance to wake-up and toss out a despot before he fatally damages our noble Republic. Let us pray Americans will cast aside sentimentality and act as true patriots and save America from a crafty and utterly immoral, power-mad demagogue. For if Libya is not a wake up call for the average American, we may not be able to stop the implosion. But we must believe we can halt the rot if we act now.

I. Benghazi

It is obvious now that a tremendous and sadly avoidable tragedy struck Americans in Benghazi, Libya on the anniversary of 9/11. Has such a deadly lack of leadership ever emanated from the White House? Further, what impact will such brutal official indifference make upon the American psyche if this event is not harshly sanctioned at the voting booth?

A. Benghazi 9/11 Overview

Here is a brief description of what we know: US Ambassador Christopher Stevens traveled from Tripoli to Benghazi, Libya. Nervous over rising unrest in this Muslim African Mediterranean nation, Stevens asked repeatedly for more security but was refused. On the day of the attack he’d asked again. He was attacked after dark, and seven hours later he was dead, along with three others. And it now appears the US had notice of the event, time to respond, and resources within reach to mount a counter-assault. What is not clear is why the American military was not sent in to save our Ambassador. (The time-line of the attack is well laid out at Powerline. (Benghazigate: The state of the story)

B. Benghazi Obama Problems

But let’s recall some of the more unsavory elements of the Benghazi charade. The killing of Stevens occurred on September 11, 2012 after 9 pm. As we now know, the attack was prep-planned terrorism, not the result of any video protest, as the White House (WH) initially claimed. The assault pitted a large group of terrorists against a few Americans and some Libyan security guards, who fled almost immediately. Four Americans were killed.

After much WH disinformation, we now know a great deal of damning information about what actually happened (key video): The fight raged for 7 hours; the WH knew there was no video protest; Ambassador Stevens asked repeatedly for more security, including the day of the attack; the WH had a live feed for 5 hours of the firefight; there was a CIA safe house 1 mile down the road; A nearby US base was 480 miles away—Sigonella Naval Air Station in Sicily, Italy; Former Navy SEALS at the nearby (1 mile) CIA annex asked three times if they could help Stevens and were told repeatedly to “stand down”; several agents finally volunteered to aid Stevens and ended up dying; that a Delta Force Team, designated a secret tier-one counter-terrorism team, was at Sigonella, at most 2 hours away; a US Military AC-130h-Specter Gunship was already in Benghazi but not sent to rescue Stevens (gunships mission: “close air support, air interdiction and armed reconnaissance”); that a strike was organized, the terrorists located, but the mission canceled when Barack did not have the nerve to pull the trigger.

It is undoubtedly worse than Obama simply turned his back on cornered American citizens in a foreign land, knowing undoubtedly they would die. But that Barack did so without any compelling reason—except political—is beyond evil. Only a moral monster would have made that decision when it was within his powers to possibly save them with almost no effort of his own.

II. Libya: Muslim Spring

Without Obama’s Muslim Spring policy, Benghazi probably never would have happened (Muslim Spring being the new American approach to using foreign rebels to wage war for liberty against dictators with American backing). So how did Barack’s Muslim Spring conversion take place? Actually, and against all of Barack’s claims of being a guileless freedom fighter—it was originally all about money, oil and power. Europeans wanted Obama to join anti-Gaddafi forces during the rebel uprising to help defend their oil interests, as Libya is Europe’s biggest supplier of petroleum. Barack did not want to be left out, seemingly standing for nothing again while mouthing empty cliches, as he had been before in Iran.

Typically, after what Barack felt was a successful campaign to oust Gaddafi, he took credit for the strategy. This is a longstanding habit (noted when he rode other legislator’s bills in the Illinois senate, despite having nothing to do with them). Writes one journalist in June 2011:

From Washington, the enthusiasm of the French for intervention in Libya is seen with a mixture of relief and puzzlement. The Americans do not want the job and are happy that someone else does. Indeed, President Nicolas Sarkozy’s willingness to intervene helped close a dangerous gap between the world of “values,” which would call for direct American intervention against Muammar al-Qaddafi, and the world of “interest,” which impelled President Barack Obama to restraint.

While Americans are relieved by France’s display of determination, they cannot refrain from expressing a sense of bemusement: Do the French really know what they are up against? What has happened to them? We know what war means, but they seem to have forgotten! Indeed, France and the United States seem to have switched roles from just a few years ago.

Sadly, Barack takes his own brand of “leadership” so seriously, and with the novelist’s joy for embellishment, that soon Europe’s Libyan intervention became another seed of his genius. Obama’s fiction of Libyan leadership was glorified in Vanity Fair in a silly panegyric called Obama’s Way. One weirdly effusive excerpt notes how Barack decided how the Libyan war would unfold:

A decision Barack Obama had made, more or less on his own. The president’s decision reached forward into the impersonal future—Qaddafi would be killed, Libya would hold its first free elections—but it also reached back into the personal past, to the things that had made Obama capable of walking alone into a room with a pencil and walking out a bit later with a conviction….He was especially alive to the power of a story to influence the American public. He believed he had been elected chiefly because he had told a story. Now the United States had forged a broad international coalition to help people who claimed to share our values rid themselves of a tyrant.

III. Bad Habits,  Evil Intentions

A. Lessons of Barack—Leaderless

What can we learn about Barack just from his Libya fiasco? There are many lessons, actually. And they all lead to the realization that Obama is a typical Marxist—dishonest, unethical, and utterly ruthless. First, when it comes to crises—Obama is a reactor, not a true leader. For example, it took France to push him into action against Gaddafi, which he then characteristically claimed showed him to be the majordomo. Yet—if he really was a principled leader, unafraid to stand up to a bully—then why no action when Iran’s people protested the faked elections, rioted and were murdered?

The Obama’s Way article went so far as to claim the profound Barack deferred to philosophers and statesmen in framing his response:

Obama asked his speechwriters to dig up for him writings about war by people he admired: Saint Augustine, Churchill, Niebuhr, Gandhi, King. He wanted to reconcile the non-violent doctrines of two of his heroes, King and Gandhi, with his new role in the violent world. These writings came back to the speechwriters with key passages underlined and notes by the president to himself scrawled in the margin.

But instead, fraudulent Barack was again simply Leading From Behind. This is the only type of “leadership” with which Barack feels an affinity.

B. Cowering, Heartless

Second, as Libya has now come apart, Barack reveals his real persona. This is the uncaring, craftily ambitious, inexperienced yet know-it-all poseur. But, when storm clouds mount he is so unnerved by making big decisions he sprints to the sand to bury his head. This can be seen the way Obama reacted to the Gulf Oil Spill. His most memorable maneuver, after lecturing oil companies on safety, was golf. Bill Clinton offered more leadership suggesting we nuke the offending undersea oil gusher.

C. Hypocritical,  Soulless Politician

Third, Obama’s loss of nerve and decision to call off a military strike that could have taken out the Benghazi insurgents, and instead—just letting Americans die an agonizing, lonely death—is the most quintessential aspect of the story. This is because it reveals Barack as he truly is inside—an immoral, gutless, unfeeling, selfish, hypocritical, overly ambitious and hideously uncaring person. Obama ONLY cares about what he personally finds valuable, which obviously does not include individual Americans, or any random human beings.

D. Bizarre Shrunken Adolescent POTUS

We must admit in passing how weird it is to watch Barack devolve from his 2008 pseudo-statesman routine into his new disrespectful, perverted and immature persona. Undoubtedly this suits him better as it cuts closer to the bone.

IV. Why Obama Bailed on Benghazi

How about a few suggestions as to Obama’s motivations in Benghazi? Why would Barack not give his ambassador Chris Stevens security when he repeatedly asked for more and apparently danger grew daily? Because this would go against Barack’s adolescent king-of-the-world fantasy which claimed he came in peace to heal the earth.

But when the WH and Pentagon could see live video that our ambassador in Libya was getting murdered, why wouldn’t Barack go in with military when he had the means easily within reach? And why would he cancel the military response after it was organized? Most probably because he believed it could escalate into something huge which would go against his peace-maker narrative. This would imperil his upcoming election. Instead, Obama decided to sentence 4 men to execution, betting he could cover up the small murder by blaming it on another—Barack’s MO—with a hack video. He expected the media would undoubtedly help him with the coverup—as they subsequently tried—and sweep him back into power. But since this failed, all bets are off.

A. Moral Caner of Pragmatism

Ultimately, Benghazi is a triumph of Barack’s famed pragmatism, where only the outcome matters, and anything that helps achieve the goal—like murder by abandonment, in this case—is considered ethical.

Conclusion—Obama’s Choices: Lose or Be Impeached

Barack is a self-centered, utterly unfeeling, revolution-seeking drone who cannot be bothered with the hard work of genuine leadership. And as terrifying as it sounds, he is a typical Marxist leader who wants to “save humanity,” but finds individuals not important enough to consider. It’s no wonder Barack’s White House loves Mao, a possible role model for crazy, unthinking and ideologically-driven tyranny from the man who murdered 77 million of his own countrymen. Or perhaps Vlad Lenin, first dictator of the USSR is his example, who said—“Any cook should be able to run the country.” Marxists have no respect for democracy, republicanism or capitalism.

Whatever the purpose of Barack’s presidency, he must face the decision of getting beaten at the ballot box in November 2012 or being impeached. Yes America, it has finally come to that after Barack’s murderous high treason!

"The Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier".

I received the below note from one of my brothers this morning -   
*

"I don't know how many of you are familiar with "The tomb of the unknown soldier."  I have been there and it is a very humbling experience. You should read up on it. These soldiers have guarded the tomb for many decades and they are there 24 hours per day regardless of weather. 
*

As Hurricane Sandy is ready to make landfall, these soldiers will continue their guard. They uphold this mission with great honor and there have only been 400 guards to ever receive the honor of guarding the tomb.  The tomb holds the body of an unidentified soldier who represents all those soldiers who have died but their remains were never identified.
*

There are many, many sites to give you a synopsis.  Here is one:  Home of Heroes

*

 My other brother, D, noted - "This is pretty neat. I would think, if hurricane force winds were to reach the tomb, I can’t imagine this would be accomplished as pictured. But you can bet if not, Uncle Sam has a protocol."

We The Sheeple

There is no consolation in having someone validate one's theory (in this case some would say conspiracy theory) when it is really dirty.  When one's gut says something is dreadfully wrong and I think this is what it is - that is not fact.  Non-the-less, Erik Rush echos my thoughts in the article below.  That still does not make it fact.  
*
My purpose here is to keep the idea out there praying to God that it pushes enough people to demand answers because thus far all we are getting is BS!  We have plenty of hard facts of what happened in Benghazi and what happened in the oval office - now we want the truth of why, how deep does this go.  What are the facts!?!  This is OUR country and not only do we have a right to know, our very survival may well depend on knowing.  
*
We are a lost nation when We The People become We The Sheeple.  The Sheeple will let the Benghazi story be swept under a rug.  We must not let that happen...
*
Benghazi: No Other Explanation Fits via Canada Free Press - Erik Rush
* 
Excerpt - "I believe that President Obama not only knew of that peril, but knew beforehand that the embassy would be attacked, because he facilitated the attack himself. After the contempt of Congress vote went against Attorney General Eric Holder in June, I believe that Obama determined that the Libya operation had become too much of a risk, and took steps to “make it go away.” A Mideast “Fast and Furious” emerging within weeks of the election would be devastating. I believe that Obama coordinated the assault through his connections with local jihadists, and that Stevens was the primary target. Obama cleared the way for the assailants via his inaction and interference, intending to cloak their mission within those of “outraged protestors” in the region."

Is Dearborn a Police State?

Gary Fouse
fousesquawk
http://garyfouse.blogspot.com



Hat tip aomin.org

Dearborn, Michigan is home to the largest concentration of Arabs in the US. It would stand to reason that most are Muslim. However, not all Arabs are Muslim. Every year Dearborn is host to what is called Arab Fest. I repeat; Arab Fest-not Islam Fest. Yet anyone who shows up and tries to espouse any other faith is subject to a lot of harassment.

And even arrest.

In 2010, 4 Christians were arrested by Dearborn police as they engaged in a peaceful conversation with young Muslim males on a public street. The police report states that they were engaged in incitement and shouting at the crowd. The video shows otherwise. What this video shows is an outrageous abuse of police power. As a retired law enforcement agent, I am ashamed at what I see on this video.

http://aomin.org/aoblog/index.php?itemid=4070

This is the kind of local abuse that the Justice Department should be investigating. Don't hold your breath as long as the Obama administration and Eric Holder are in power.

Listen Oh Ye Gentle Lambs - Your Time Has Come

I'm speaking to you Nevada and Iowa and Ohio and Colorado and New Hampshire and Virginia and Florida and Wisconsin and Pennsylvania! As we close in on November 6th - 

Do you realize that the fate of the free world may well rest in your hands?

This election changed on 9/11/12 when our United States embassy in a far distant place called Benghazi was attacked by terrorists and four American's died. Now the economic issues that still must be resolved pale in comparison. Please think carefully on the below.
*
Four men died that night in Benghazi, an ambassador, a worker, two Navy Seals. The Seals died in the last minutes of the seven hour fire fight. They died because they disobeyed orders from the White House to "stand down." They died because of their deep belief that there be "no man left behind."

Mark Steyn - "In those first moments of the attack, a request for military back-up was made by U.S. staff on the ground but was denied by Washington. It had planes and Special Forces less than 500 miles away in southern Italy – or about the same distance as Washington to Boston. They could have been there in less than two hours. Yet the commander-in-chief declined to give the order. So Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods fought all night against overwhelming odds, and died on a rooftop in a benighted jihadist hell hole while Obama retired early to rest up before his big Vegas campaign stop."

If America does not have a Commander In Chief who honors his most solemn responsibility, that of having our backs - at all times - in all places - if he does not believe in his soul that no man must be left behind - than we are in for very rough days ahead. Every one of us. And as America goes, so goes the free world. 

How does that place the yolk of having an effect on the free world at your feet? By simply understanding that your voice, your vote counts! Those never ending pieces of political propaganda which we must endure for a few more days - wouldn't be there if "they" didn't need you.

It could have been Hillary.  Or you.  Or me.

Instead it was those truly watching our backs.

Cowardly Obama sacks top commanders after Benghazigate

I saw this earlier today and was waiting for clarification before I posted this.

The commanders wanted to go in and save American lives in Benghazi and Obama REFUSED

How can anyone vote for such a hater of Americans and American exceptionalism? PatriotUSA

Obama Administration Replaces Top Generals Following Benghazi Disaster 
By Jim Hoft 

General Carter Ham

The latest rumor making the rounds is that Barack Obama replaced General Carter Ham at Africom after the general made a move to help the US security officials at the Benghazi consulate and annex. Ham was replaced by Gen. David Rodriquez on October 18.

Tiger Droppings reported:

The information I heard today was that General [Carter] Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.

General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.

The story continues that now General Rodiguez would take General Ham’s place as the head of Africom.

Sure enough Obama nominated Gen. David Rodriguez to replace Gen. Carter Ham as commander of U.S. Africa Command. The Stars and Stripes reported:

President Barack Obama will nominate Army Gen. David Rodriguez to succeed Gen. Carter Ham as commander of U.S. Africa Command and Marine Lt. Gen. John Paxton to succeed Gen. Joseph Dunford as assistant commandant of the Marine Corps, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta announced Thursday.

Both appointments must be confirmed by the Senate.

Rodriguez is the commander of U.S. Army Forces Command and has served in a “variety of key leadership roles on the battlefield,” Panetta said.

He’s “a proven leader” who oversaw coalition and Afghan forces during the surge in Afghanistan, and “was the key architect of the successful campaign plan that we are now implementing,” Panetta said.

In announcing Ham’s successor, Panetta also praised the work Ham has done with Africa Command.

“Gen. Ham has really brought AFRICOM into a very pivotal role in that challenging region,” Panetta said. “I and the nation are deeply grateful for his outstanding service.”

Hat Tip Tom

More… The Obama Administration also relieved the admiral in command of an aircraft carrier strike group in the Middle East, Rear Adm. Charles M. Gaouette. It is highly unusual for the Navy to replace a carrier strike group commander during its deployment.

The Stars and Stripes reported:

The Navy said Saturday it is replacing the admiral in command of an aircraft carrier strike group in the Middle East, pending the outcome of an internal investigation into undisclosed allegations of inappropriate judgment.

Rear Adm. Charles M. Gaouette is being sent back to the USS John C. Stennis’ home port at Bremerton, Wash., in what the Navy called a temporary reassignment. The Navy said he is not formally relieved of his command of the Stennis strike group but will be replaced by Rear Adm. Troy M. Shoemaker, who will assume command until the investigation is completed.

It is highly unusual for the Navy to replace a carrier strike group commander during its deployment.

Ace of Spades says the move to replace Rear Adm. Charles Baouette is likely not related to Benghazi.

"(The) basic principle is that you don't deploy forces into harm's way without knowing what's going on; without having some real-time information about what's taking place," Panetta told Pentagon reporters. "And as a result of not having that kind of information, the commander who was on the ground in that area, Gen. Ham, Gen. Dempsey and I felt very strongly that we could not put forces at risk in that situation."
-Leon Panetta


As one who has served in both the military (not in combat) and law enforcement (Military Police, US Customs and DEA-including one shoot out), I fully recognize that there are differences between military and law enforcement combat situations. Yet, there is one thing that stands out in my mind about the Benghazi attack. It appears that our personnel in Libya were left to their own devices.

During the 7-hour attack at two different locations, the CIA annex requested military assistance 3 times. They themselves were told by somebody in the chain of command to "stand down" when they wanted to respond to the consulate, which was initially under attack. In spite of that order, ex-Navy Seal Tyrone Woods and others defied that order and went to the consulate, about a mile away, where they brought personnel out. (They were unable to locate Ambassador Stevens, who was presumably already dead.)

Back at the annex, Woods, Glen Doherty and others  faced attack. They apparently were killed by mortar fire while firing machine guns at the attackers from the roofs of the annex. During that final phase of the attack, they had lasers on the attackers' positions and were calling for those positions to be fired upon, which never happened.

It has been reported that two drones were hovering over the site sending real time images back to Washington. Our officials in Washington knew that this was no protest over a video that got out of control.

Here is the point I am driving at; When your people are trapped, under attack, and being fired upon, whatever else you do, you go in and get them. That is precisely what Tyrone Woods and others on the ground did-defying orders to stand down.

Later, it was Woods, Glen Doherty and others who were under fire and needed help at the annex. There were clearly forces available in the region that could have responded-certainly in time to save those killed at the annex since the attack lasted 7 hours.

Again I stress the differences between military combat and law enforcement combat, but one classical situation in DEA was when an agent was undercover in a buy-bust situation and got into trouble either because the deal turned out to be a rip-off or a host of other emergencies. In those cases, surveillance agents go in and get their agent out. Period.

That is certainly the spirit of the military, and I have no doubt those involved were chomping at the bit to respond. Who kept them from going in to Benghazi?

In fairness, it seems a response team did go from Tripoli to Benghazi at some point, where they got stuck at the airport for some time. What seems to have been missing was air support and fire to rescue the men fighting at the annex.

Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, who was with President Obama in the White House within an hour or so of the beginning of the attack, told Pentagon reporters two days ago that forces can not be sent into a situation when they don't have a clear picture of what is happening. Another reason I have heard was that many by-standers were gathered on the streets around the consulate and annex.

But in the end, our forces were told to stand down. It may have been too late to save Ambassador Stevens and his aide, Sean Smith, who died at the consulate, but what about Woods and Doherty 7 hours later?

Meanwhile, the man we may be re-electing president in 10 days is promising "to get to the bottom of it". In my mind, he, his Secretary of Defense, and his Secretary of State already know.

Gatling Gun - Obama Wouldn't Use It...

But that sure as hell doesn't mean we can't use something similar - what I'm going to call the word driven Gatling Tweet! 

Over and above whatever methods of communication you are using we must let Congress know their jobs are on the line if they ignore or obfuscate what we learned yesterday - that someone in the Situation Room gave our military the order to "stand down" and let the men in Benghazi die!

That "someone" in the Situation Room had to have been Obama. His 9/11/12schedule. From the transcript of the third debate he said to Bob Schieffer - "Now, with respect to Libya, as I indicated in the last debate, when we received that phone call, I immediately made sure that, number one, we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm's way....."  That says he DID receive the communiqués, and when he supposedly gave the order to "secure those Americans" they had to have still been alive at that moment!  "Stand down" took care of that little technicality.  May you rot in hell Barack Hussein Obama but not until you spend many, many years in jail.  Your 72 will just have to wait!  Forever!

I have made one suggested tweet for your use that stays within the number of characters allowed. Also added to each of them are hashtags of the swing states still most needing work. This has the advantage of making the folks in those states aware of what we have learned, hopefully changing a whole lot of minds, and maybe they will help us tell congress - we will not stand for this!

By tweeting only two senators at a time it is more work but it does not take long to do 25/50 tweets by just copying/pasting as per below. A good thing, unlike other methods, we can all tweet at every one of them because they have no idea if we are in their state or not! One more little item - each Senator's @name is linked so you can tweet directly at him if you so desire.

Let's roll America!
