QUICK Decision Making by the WH

After most everyone who had even glanced at the murdering of a US Ambassador on 9/11 IMMEDIATELY realized that it was an act of terrorism, after a mere NINE days, the WH has come to the same conclusion. Nothing like being quick on your feet!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, they wanted to be THOROUGH before making a decision! Yeah right! They were trying to cover their ass and anyone who will set aside their Obama zealousness can easily see that. They had indications three days earlier that they needed added security at the embassy's in those countries and did NOTHING! The blood of that ambassador and those other three fine Americans is on the hands of the Administration!

I wonder how quick they could come to a decision if ICBM's were hurtling toward the US? Sure hope it doesn't take NINE days to react to such an equally obvious observation. Of course since that's typically the time between B.O.'s attendance of the "daily" security briefings, that sounds quite possible.

Obama needs to answer to the fact that why was the Ambassador who knew he was on a hit list in Benghazi without a security detail and an armored vehicle?

Those two Seals weren't in his detail...it appears they heard the shooting and came running.

So now, what is the answer?

It is Bush's fault!

That embassy and all of ours in the middle east were already on high security alert because of the 9/11 anniversary. The speed of his comments about it have no bearing on anything except your overworked imagination.

Sometimes its better to say nothing than to say the wrong thing.

Yeah, like under this high security alert, why was this Ambassador out and about unarmed amongst the tango's then?

Maybe trying to get back US arms that we DIDN'T give them per Obama.

That is NOT what was in the news! If they were already in a high state of security, why were they not able to so much as return fire? For a gun hater like B.O. and his zealous supporters that might sound like a high state of alert, but it sure doesn't sound like it to me.

High state of alert means weopons locked and loaded, claymores put in place and ready for action. Does this sound like the state of security at the Libyan embassy?

AGAIN! The blood of these four Americans is on B.O.'s hands!

Apparently you are getting your news from different places than I am.

Embassies are not battle zones. Once the people are evacuated they are just an empty building, not worth anybody dying to defend.

you are aware that Libya is a nominal ally right in the process of building a stable government? These are embassies, not battlefields. You should try and think for once, stop frothing at the mouth. As usual the situation is more complex than where you get your erroneous information.

quote from Libyan President at Stevens memorial-

"He was with the rebels since the beginning of the revolution," President Mohammed el-Megarif said of Stevens at the service. "He gained the trust of the Libyan people."

High security includes guns shooting blanks?
Better take your own advice next time.

You do understand an embassy stands of the soil of the country which it represents- or did that lesson not get taught in your school?
