It's really not a liberal vs conservative issue, it's about people that believe in facts vs those that pull information from some blog. The people who think this was a conspiracy can't answer basic facts, you are right about one thing, this will never go away as long as there are tin foil people that argue about birth certificates and Benghazi. This will disappear in 3 years when Obama is gone and there is no one left to hate.

The irony is that those men he left to die after fighting all night are the ones who saved the election for him. They were ordered not to go help, but they ignored those orders. They saved dozens of people. If they had followed orders, it would have been a much bigger slaughter and harder for the news to ignore.

They saved his political career, and he left them to die. And then he went to the UN to claim over and over about some stupid video. What a coward.
That simply is false. Below is the official timeline:

Quote:
September 11 (Events are listed using the time in Benghazi)

9:42 p.m. -- Armed men begin their assault on the U.S. Consulate.

9:59 p.m. -- A surveillance drone is directed to fly over the U.S. compound, but it is unarmed.

10:32 p.m. -- The Office of the Secretary Defense and the Joint Staff are notified of the attack by the National Military Command Center at the Pentagon. "The information is quickly passed to Secretary Panetta and General Dempsey."

11 p.m. -- Panetta and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin Dempsey meet with President Obama at the White House where they discuss the unfolding situation and how to respond. The meeting had been previously scheduled.

11:10 p.m. -- The surveillance drone arrives over the Benghazi facility.

11:30 p.m. -- All surviving U.S. personnel are evacuated from the consulate. U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and State Department computer expert Sean Smith were killed in the initial assault.
In my math, 11:30PM minus 9:42PM is 1 hour and 48 min, not 7 hours.

Moreover, the times listed are Benghazi time, which is six hours ahead of Washington time. Thus, 11:30PM would be 5:30PM in Washington and therefore it is also untrue that "Obama went to bed while these men were fighting for their lives."

In other words, your entire post is false and represents the disconnect between what you believe and actual facts.

It just so happens that liberals, from the beginning, wanted this story to go away. When the video was proven to not be the cause, it was liberals who decided we didn't need to know anything else. It is a facts versus myth issue. And it was this Admin the used MYTH to blame a video. It is this Admin and liberals who dont want whistle blowers to say a word. You don't want the facts out. If you did, you would be cheerleading the whistle blowers and slamming this Admin for saying Benghazi was such a long time ago.

Go watch Fox for a while to get the latest. Maybe they've come up with something new for you to believe.

... and left-wingers believe that Bengazi Obama and Housewife Hillary are even qualified to hold a government clearance.

Wow-

What a response!

So you cannot refute any of those twenty five points? Obama IS a "different president" in many, many ways. Unfortunately for the nation, all are bad.
