Why do u think Obummer knew of Benghazi attack 90 minutes after it started then went to bed?

Doesn't it look like he would have been too concerned with the peoples lives to sleep?

    They were simply bumps on his self-righteous road to glory. He cares only about power he can get, not the people who get in his way or who are in any way "inconvenient" to him.

    Not even the mass abortion of innocent babies seems to affect his slumber. In fact, he claims to sleep better just knowing that is going on.

    Much of thinking effectively consists of asking questions designed to determine of a problem is important or relatively less so. To me the important question in the Libyan tragedy is whether there was intelligence available in advance that could have been gathered that was not. Absent this, I don't discern what bad result followed from any alleged failure of the administration to correctly characterize the attack. However negligent it may have been, negligence which causes no harm is common and trivial.

    If the President stayed awake for every incident and crisis going on in the world (they happen everyday) he would never sleep the whole time he's be in office! There is stuff going on you're not even aware of. You're clueless as to the responsibilities and authority the President has.

    You're criticizing a man you're not even in the same league with!

    I'm sure that the President would have been apprised almost immediately of any incident that would have affected the U.S. or it's Ambassador's security. It certainly looks like he lied again.

    Obama was in denial of the attack being done by terrorists because he declared the war on terror as being over. As far as he is concerned it is over, he`s delusional.
