    Now thats some serious delusional denial you got going on there. Every single person in the country saw Obama and his minions blame this repeatedly on a youtube video. Do you deny this? If not you have proven your above statement is a lie.

    It's all on the record.

    And liberal media uses FACT CHECKERS! Conservative media doesn't.

    Media Matters includes proof for everything they publish. Only a dummy could visit the site and not notice.

    If you prefer propaganda benefiting the rich rather than facts, you are truly pathetic.

    Bush's precedents allow presidents to do whatever they want. Think "signing statements," among other things.

    LOL, of course conservatives don't use the liberal fact checkers like Media Matters. Who would be stupid enough to do that?

    Only idiots and hacks use media matters for anything other than to prove how intellectual dishonest Mediamatters are. I'm no beck fan but their hatchet job on him has to be one of the dirtiest on record. They posted a bit by him from his fox news show in which some one had proposed the possibility assassinating Obama. Beck's reponse according media matter was something like, "Hmm. Should we assassinate president Obama, could we assasinate Obama.It seems such an interesting idea." The was a slick and nasty piece of editing. What Media matters had done was to take it completely out of context and completely elimnate what came lmmediately after it on the show. Which was. NO we don't assassinate President Obama, that is the darkside, and that's not who we are.

    Media matters constantly does crap like that and the hit piece on Darryl Issa is par for the course when it conme to the country's nastiest political attack dog. And Media matters doesn't have fact checkers they have top notch liability lawyers that make damn sure they approach the libel line without ever quite crossing it.

    The lefts 'fact checkers' and Media Matters exist to sping data so as to make the BS the left produces 'true' and all else false. Is it a surprise the lefts groups find the left valid?

    Obama's Mideast policy is in full collapse isn't it? Pretty hard to deny one's own lying eyes. :)

    The Bush administration didn't have their press releases from the CIA editted 12 different times to washout any references to terrorists. The Bush administration didn't send out their staff for two weeks telling them "nothing to see here" and "it was our fault because one of our own made a video insulting Islam, the Muslims couldn't help themselves". http://www.realclearpolitics.com/vi...12_revision_scrubbed_of_terror_reference.html

    They have enough money to green up Embassies in Europe but they couldn't get better security AFTER the British left Libya when an assassination attempt was made on their ambassador and they warned us about it.

    Not once did the Bush admin try and cover up any of those embassy attacks. When they acknowledged them they did so for what they were, terrorist attacks.

    The Obama administration didn't even bother to try and save these guys... http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162...ot-convened-during-benghazi-consulate-attack/

    They didn't bother with CSG or FEST. The Obama administration from the top down is nothing but a bunch of rank amateurs pretending to be professionals and failing miserably from everything from the economy to foreign relations.

    The best part are the political whores who are decrying investigating yet had no problem with a five year investigation into who leaked Valerie Plames name. The Plames couldn't even get their case heard in civil court. LOL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valerie_Plame

    "On July 13, 2006, Joseph and Valerie Wilson filed a civil lawsuit against Rove, Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney, and other unnamed senior White House officials (among whom they later added Richard Armitage)[45] for their alleged role in the public disclosure of Valerie Wilson's classified CIA status.[46] Judge John D. Bates dismissed the Wilsons' lawsuit on jurisdictional grounds on July 19, 2007;[47][48][49][50] the Wilsons appealed. On August 12, 2008, in a 2-1 decision, the three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit upheld the dismissal.[51][52] Melanie Sloan, of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which represents the Wilsons, "said the group will request the full D.C. Circuit to review the case and appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court."[51][53] Agreeing with the Bush administration, the Obama Justice Department argues the Wilsons have no legitimate grounds to sue. On the current justice department position, Sloan stated: "We are deeply disappointed that the Obama administration has failed to recognize the grievous harm top Bush White House officials inflicted on Joe and Valerie Wilson. The government’s position cannot be reconciled with President Obama’s oft-stated commitment to once again make government officials accountable for their actions."[54]

    On June 21, 2009, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear the appeal"

    We absolutely should know what happened, but in a rational manner.

    This is the worst possible reference, congress based their vote to invade iraq based on false information, lies, innuendo, call it what ever you will but the basis for why we invaded, the WMD's were as real as puff the magic dragon and pushed by the Bush regime. I consider that an even worse cover up than Benghazi.

    Because this is hardly just about getting to the bottom of what happened, it's a witch hunt, that the butt hurt republicans are conducting because their boy Mitt was repudiated by John Q Public. They are also hunting for any "dirt" they think they can uncover to try and attack Clinton before the 2016 showdown, because conservatives are crapping their pants about going up against Hilary, and I don't blame them. I'm not exactly thrilled about Hilary as president, I think one person from one family is enough, we don't need dynasties in American politics.

    Frankly, as far as I'm concerned Bneghazi is just another witch hunt. We're in foreign land, they don't like us there, they attack us. What a surprise!

    I really don't give a rats ass that the dead were Americans. After all, we don't give a rats ass when we slaughter wedding parties....

    No matter how much deniel and wishful thinking by Obama, Clinton and the people that will support them, Benghazi is here to stay with many more to come forward to testify. Many more lies will be uncovered.

    What will be particularilly damming will be uncovering and bringing to light the dozen or so people that were on the ground the night it happened, some of them wounded I might add, that have been threatened with firing, demotions and told not to testify. Also information about the Generals that were fired because they would not play the lying game. All this will go on for months and maybe years. This Obama crap government will and should be shut down in its tracks.

    When the flag drapped coffins of the 4 dead Americans came back from Libya, both Obama and Clinton looked right into the eyes of the grieving family members and told them they could be assured they would GET THE GUY THAT MADE THE YOUTUBE VIDEO.

    What kind of scum would do such a thing.

    What kind indeed? I'm sure you have a link to Obama and Clinton making that scummy statement, right? Post it, please. Thank you.

    Because as scummy as such a statement might be, it would be even scummier to make up something like that, wouldn't it?

    Even if you believe the account, nothing in that link supports your assertion that "Obama and Clinton looked right into the eyes of the grieving family members and told them they could be assured they would GET THE GUY THAT MADE THE YOUTUBE VIDEO."

    It would be a scummy thing to say.

    It's even scummier to make it up.

    CORRECTION:

    There were 13 attacks on embassies during his administration.

    The difference is that there is an alleged coverup here.

    There was no cover up. The difference is that this one occurred when a Democrat was president.

    There were also two embassies destroyed on Clinton's watch but the Republicans who controlled both houses of congress didn't go after Clinton on it. So basically Irie your theory is a full of holes as a fisherman's net.

    Sorry but the dems voted for the war right alonside Bush. All you can say is they were either too lazy to look into the facts or they were as stupid as Bush. They were however equally as at fault as Bush since they could have voted no. They instead voted yes.
    Lastly, there is no witch hunt. Believe it or not some people actually care about the deaths of four Americans. If Obama did nothing wrong then he should have absolutely nothing to worry about at all. If he did nothing wrong he should have no problem with those under him telling us the truth about what happened that night. If he would just come out and actually tell us what happened that night this is over tomorrow. So basically since Sept 11th of last year, this guy the most powerful man in the free world still doesnt know what happened, who did what, who made what decision? Are you kidding me? He knows exactly what happened thats why he wont tell us. Witch hunt my ass, this guy let four Americans die for politcal gain and he or Hillary should get the Nixon send off for it. If he is innocent as those on the left think then what are you so worried about?

    Republicans would make allegations against a ham sandwich if it could help them trick common people into voting for the interests of the rich.

    t-r-e-a-s-o-n

    It's a big word.

    Certainly big enough for a cover-up.

    Arming the enemy is treason, Iriemon.

    Doesn't matter if our Prez had his minion the Secretary of State do it for him, it's still treason.

    That's exactly right. Bush used the messes in Afghanistan and Iraq as election year boosters, he used the deaths of thousands to get reelected. Republicans used the concept of terrorism on our shores as a way to scare the public into voting for them, because the Republicans projected that hawkish front that buffaloed many people.

    This is more of the same, you could even say that they are trying to swiftboat Clinton before she even declares a candidacy for 2016.

    Yeah, one can't help but notice that throughout every single failure of the obama administration (which are many) that libs here will try their best to reflect the damages by conjuring up some perceived mishaps by George Bush. You will find exactly zero posts here of a liberal defending obama, simply because one cannot defend the guilty.

    “The Agency has produced numerous pieces on the threat of extremists linked to al-Qa'ida in Benghazi and eastern Libya. These noted that, since April, there have been at least five other attacks against foreign interests in Benghazi by unidentified assailants, including the June attack against the British Ambassador's convoy. We cannot rule out the individuals has previously surveilled the U.S. facilities, also contributing to the efficacy of the attacks.” http://www.politicalforum.com/unite...ical-arm-democratic-party.html#post1062612244

    I am sorry but according to the State Department this topic has to be deleted for political control of information for control of electoral outcomes due to the intelligence being harmful to We the People knowing that Al Quacka was and is determined to attack.
