Tea Party activists lined a street on which Obama's motorcade traveled to protest his, and the lame-brain mainstream media's abysmal silence on Benghazi. I suppose his dream-team goons would have mad the protesters their targets? Kudos to those Tea Party activists!

Benghazi-Gate
I haven't posted on that sorry and tragic debacle. As details emerge, it becomes increasingly clear that Obama and his minions had ample warning that trouble was brewing in Libya. The embassy requested aide and protection; their pleas were ignored. We see here a skeletal timeline of events.
Inhabiting the Oval Office is a man-child who, at most, has some "community-organizing" experience of which he can boast. Much has been made of his gadding about in a helicopter over areas stricken by Hurricane Sandy and how "presidential he looked". Well, be that as it may, Obama was not "presidential" when it counted. It clearly appears that he sucked his thumb instead of "acting presidential" and as a result, four American lives were lost when there was ample time to send assistance. It now appears that assistance was requested - and denied. Today Fox News released details of a cable sent by the consulate to the Department of State about surrounding activities in Libya and that it would never withstand any "coordinated attack".
I will link to a four-part youtube series put out by Fox News (Towards the end of each part will be a green link to the next; click on that to get to the next video in the series.) In the first part, former UN ambassador John Bolton puts forth a hypothesis why security in Libya was reduced - because to keep heightened security there would have contradicted the Obama administration's claim to success in stabilizing that region (at 10:25 mark. John Sunonu states the same theory in part 3 at the 4:53 mark.
We now have reports that US drones were flying overhead during part of the attack, transmitting images to military personnel. Why did't they act? Were they restrained by Washington?
In November, we must send the man-child known as Barack Hussein Obama packing and put some adults in charge of the White House.

US Embassies Attacked And US - Apologizes??
Talk about kissing the hand that slaps you, but that is just what happened. Our consulate in Benghazi was attacked and four US officials were murdered. So what does the US Embassy in Cairo have to say? Quote: "The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims – as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions. Today, the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, Americans are honoring our patriots and those who serve our nation as the fitting response to the enemies of democracy. Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy. We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others."
My understanding is that the jihadists were having quite the temper tantrum over some film that allegedly insulted Mohammed. It's much like what we Catholics did when "The Last Temptation of Christ" was playing or when the "Piss Christ" garbage was publicly exhibited. Yes, that last statement is factually untrue, but I put that in there to make plain the differences between the True Faith that civilizes versus bogus junk that turns its adherents into violent snarling barbarians. It's quite likely that the film was merely an alibi, as they wanted to attack US territory on this anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
Fat lot of good that apology did for the Cairo embassy. It too was ransacked and overrun. I submit that their grovelling and sniveling statement only encouraged the bullies. Weakness tends to have that effect on bullies, as most kids learn in the school playground.
Speaking of kids, it's time to expel the brats from the White House this November. If there's anything that the events of the past two days should have made crystal clear, it's that we need competent adults in the White House.
