Do we now have "proof" Obama refused to call Benghazi a terrorist attack?

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Journalism/2012/11/05...

And yes, I'm very aware Breitbart is a right-leaning "news" organization -- I'm just thinking of the implications if this is true...

    Until the recording of the conversation that took place in the situation room is declassified, we will never have proof. I too think the implications are extraordinary, yet this story has been buried by the mainstream news.

    between 2007 and 2008 Obama promised a million) a transparent WH, 2) close Guantanamo, 3) shrink the deficit in 1/2 of, 4) low-priced well being care, all of that were lies. He blanketed up the Benghazi attacks by falsely claiming it replaced into bcuz of a video, examined to be a lie. So your in choose of a mild liar as against all and distinct who needs suited democracy?

    Regardless of the parts of the incident which are debatable, Obama made the decision that the lives of the Ambassador and his staff were not as important as were his attempted in-roads to Islamic fundamentalists. Fortunately our unbiased and impartial press is not going to hold Obama accountable for his actions. (*)

    What does it matter if the democrat lap dog media doesn't inform anyone?

    Democrats will deny that the major media is supports them, but the facts make their denials laughable:

    Polls on how Americans saw the mainstream media (TV and print) election coverage in 2008:

    -Rasmussen poll: 69% for Obama, 6% for McCain

    -Pew Research poll: 67% for Obama, 11% for McCain

    -Sacred Heart University poll: 68% for Obama, 9% for McCain

    -Fox News/Opinion Dynamics poll: 67% for Obama, 11% for McCain

    University of Connecticut’s Department of Public Policy survey of journalists, nationwide, during the 2008 election: 52% supported Obama versus 19% for McCain.

    9/2009 Sacred Heart University Polling Institute: 69.9% agreed the national news media are intent on promoting the Obama presidency while 26.5% disagreed.

    9/23/10 Pew Research poll: 43% of those who perceive bias say it is liberal; 23% say they see conservative bias.

    9/29/10 Gallup poll: Distrust of the media Edges Up to Record High

    Perceptions of liberal bias still far outnumber perceptions of conservative bias: 48% say the media are too liberal; 15% say they are too conservative.

    9/22/11 Gallup poll: 60% perceive bias, with 47% saying the media are too liberal and 13% saying they are too conservative.

    8/15/12 Rasmussen Poll: 59% of Likely U.S. Voters believe Obama has received the best treatment from the media so far; 18% think his Republican challenger has been treated better.

    8/25/12 New York Times: Arthur Brisbane wrote:

    "Across the paper’s many departments, though, so many share a kind of political and cultural progressivism — for lack of a better term — that this worldview virtually bleeds through the fabric of The Times."

    “As a result, developments like the Occupy movement and gay marriage seem almost to erupt in The Times, overloved and undermanaged, more like causes than news subjects.”

    Who the New York Times endorsed for president, since 1960:

    1960 Kennedy; 1964 Johnson;1968 Humphrey; 1972 McGovern; 1976 Carter; 1980 Carter; 1984 Mondale; 1988 Dukakis; 1992 Clinton; 1996 Clinton; 2000 Gore; 2004 Kerry; 2008 Obama. ALL DEMOCRATS.

    Gallup: Only 8% of Americans Have 'Great Deal' of Trust in News Media--a New Low

    Evidence of collusion between democrats and CNN during the presidential debate of 10/16/12:

    -10/17/12 http://www.politico.com/politico44/2012/10/obama-g... CNN says Obama got 9% more speaking time [194 seconds].

    -2/3/11 http://money.cnn.com/2011/02/03/news/companies/sup... Fox Network charges up to $100,000 a second for big sports events.

    [In other words, CNN gave Obama $19,400,000 worth of free campaign time -- $100,000/second times 194 seconds]

    The pro-democrat media has ten times more viewers than pro-Republican Fox News:

    5/25/11 huffingtonpost.com: NBC Nightly News averaged 9.469 million viewers, ABC's World News 8.380 million; CBS Evening News 6.204 million; among cable networks, Fox News 2.556 million. And those figures don’t include the democrat shills MSNBC and CNN.

  • Do we all have short-term memory only? For two weeks Obama admin claimed a protest was responsible for the attack. A protest that did not exist, and they knew it at the time.

    We the People don't but the news media do. But they aren't telling us.

    There were 12 attacks on US Embassies, resulting in 53 dead, during the Bush administration.

    Is "accountability" only a factor with Democratic Presidents?

  • 9 years ago

    This was settled weeks ago. Go check the White House transcripts of his speech. It's there. Time to move on, Mitt was wrong.

  • 9 years ago

    The Obama administration knew within hours that it was a terrorist attack and deliberately LIED about it...FACT!!!
