    The conservatives have been accusing of Obama by lying that the attacks were due to the film trailer. Now they’re accusing him of lying because he says that the attacks were preplanned by local terrorist militia. My head would be spinning, if hadn’t learned that making sense and being consistent are no longer conservative values. Don’t bother to stop and gawk, nothing going on here.

    narrowminded is correct.By the entire week of White House lies, via the president and sec’y state and US ambass. to the UN and that spindoctor of an Obama press sec’y…..repeating and repeating for world TV that the blame for the Cairo and Benghazi attacks was a 13-minute film trailer on the internet….of course the terrorist networks used the constant 24/7 “news” reruns to deliberately incite thousands of people who had not seen the 13 minutes, but that society is full of citizens well-practiced in rioting when the Friday Mosque clerics say to go and do so….they went and did so, in an obviously co-ordinated campaign across the entire Mideast, even in Jerusalem, RIOTS. At least 50 deaths ocurred, thanks to the US provocation via TV.

    Tsk, tsk.Using a tragic attack on us to score cheap political points.If I were a Republican, I’d probably chide the tiny trolls, supra, for being unAmerican.

    But, you’ve got to admire ol’disgusted(ing?). Not many are capable of the cerebral contortions necessary to reach his (or her) conclusions.

    I wonder what is going to happen to all of these ultra conservative types that transferred over to what used to be descent message boards from FOX so called NEWS, when even they finally could not keep the discussions in reasonable order, when President Obama (while it is certainly not a certainty yet, if Mitt Romney keeps self destructing like he is…) is re elected?

    Will they just leave the country, or have their heads implode/explode?

    No, unfortunately, I don’t expect that they will go away. But just perhaps we can then at least attempt to have some degree of reasonable disagreement. I really grow tired of nothing but a continuing barrage of anti President Obama comments. And no, while there were indeed a lot of anti President GWBush comments from the more extreme liberal elements, they were nowhere near as vehemently antagonist and virulent as those made against our current president. In fact, it is this very attitude by such people that is going to re elect President Obama by the more moderate voters among us. Or do not such people even begin to realize that??

    By the way, just how well it Congress doing? Both parties, but especially the Tea Party Republicans that got elected on the premise of job creation and then ONLY have done everything they possibly could do to see to it that President Obama is not re elected, even if they have to take the country down to accomplish that one narrow goal? Last I read (and being one of those despised elderly 47%, I do have the time to at least keep up with such things) their total over all approval rate was something like 12% (less than 25% of President Obama’s 50%), with the Tea Party Republicans at an even greater disadvantage of only about 9%!!

    AQ planned this attack for the anniversary of 911, and whipped up a riot as cover, using an old video on UTube, We knew AQ was in Libya helping the revolt, and did not take adequate precautions to protect our people.

    What’s the competing story?

    The right-wing media, and populace, prove why “diplomacy” is a more intelligent way to go, and that the “intelligence” should NOT BE SHARED with these morons! The fact of PHONY “intelligence” behind “WMDs” is another example.

    While many in Libya are supporting the U.S., it should be recognized that it was “W” bombing everyone in the Muslim world and declaring “crusade”, that caused ALL THE TROUBLE! (And it goes back to Reagan and GHW)

    Lots and lots of comments and not one in praise of Willard the ChickenHawk. You’d think his supporters could come up with something.-Maybe that he’s nice to his dog… Oh, wait…

    disgustedtaxpayer said, less than a minute ago

    when stating true facts is labelled “rant” and “rave”, it is clear that those doing the labelling are blind to truth, to the facts about how those Muslim countries operate, and to video proof time after time that Obama, Hillary Clinton, Ambass. Rice and others speaking for the administration spoke lie after lie after lie. You people are ready and prepared to accept the antichrist whenever he appears….perhaps in our lifetime.-America and the Western nations are threatened by an organized and relentless enemy of freedom and democratic government, those who kill innocent people over a cartoon or a report that a Koran is torn or burned (while they approve of anyone that burns the Bible and the USA flag, and kill diplomats under cover of staged “riots”)…-as for Obama, conservatives and christians have a very long list of complaints about his policies and plans and his constant public statements, inciting class warfare between the “rich 1%” and the 49% receiving federal benefits (according to the last US census) and his scorn of Americans who “cling to their religion and their guns”, and to free enterprise successful business owners…“you didn’t do that”….while seizing auto manufacturing businesses (Government Motors, etc) andassuming federal control of 1/7th the US Economy, the healthcare industry. I’m out of space or I could list other unacceptable Obama offenses.

    OK, con-fabulists. Why were Muslims demonstrating around the world before the Ambassador was killed in Libya, before Clinton or Obama made a single remark?Most of the rioters were angry people who mistakenly believe the U.S government must approve of anything on the Internet, because that’s how things work in their countries. Most of them are more angry about their crappy living conditions than anything else. They realize that an elite has taken advantage of them. Mubarak was seen as American puppets, so when a match was lit, it caught fire quickly.Libya is rather different. The attack there looks like it was carried out by a group who either had this planned in advance or was well prepared to take advantage of the situation. The Libyan government is well aware that they need to forge a good relationship with Europe and America in order to deliver prosperity. It seems like most Libyans did not support any of the rioting, let alone the violence.I suspect this is too much nuance for the Republican Presidential candidate, let alone his rock headed Internet fans.

    Cal says: “Question from an American to Barack H. Obama: Who’s side are you on?” Answer; Yours. Too bad you can’t figure that out.

    9/25/1 a.m. …I just printed out a 3-page article from the website cnsnews.com“Intelligence Chair: Obama and Clinton ‘Gave Permission to Al Qaeda’…..9/24/12.House Intel Chairman Mike Rogers made a statement on CNN Sunday, “Pres. Obama and Sec.State Clinton, in broadcasting a TV ad in Pakistan apologizing for a privately produced video that criticized Islam, had given al Qaeda and other ‘bad actors’ a ‘permission slip’ to do bad things.”-“Chairman Rogers said he thought there was ‘a high degree of probability that the attack on the Benghazi consulate was carried out by al Qaeda or an al Qaeda-affiliated group’, and that it (the attack) was not about the video.”-(that is the head of the US House committee on Intelligence, expressing his opinion after seeing the latest Intel info, that the Obama administration’s highlighting of the toxic video in the TV ad led to a Pakistan government minister offering a large reward for the death of the video maker and also gave a “green light” to terrorists that the video was their alibi for riots and killings)
