True to his record, Obama voted present.
The fools who voted for him can't help being stupid.

"I vote, present"

barack obama

The narrative is going to be even more inconvenient when one of our airliners is taken down with a stinger missile we supplied to Libyan rebels. We are inviting attack and it will come on our soil.

Read the whole thing.
I am astonished to find it in the WaPoo.
Maybe they want their credibility back.

Obama's reaction to Benghazi is symptomatic of his failed approach to all of foreign policy.

last 2 sentences in this WaPo opinion article:

The problem revealed in Libya is not only incompetence or deception. It is a wartime president who refuses to be a wartime leader.

Four government motors Chevy Volts to the US Paris Embassy and nothing for Benghazi. These are the same Administration morons who sent 2,000 guns to Mexico. It seems the Mexican drug lords needed protection, but the four Americans in Benghazi weren't worth their effort. I think that covers the situation adequately.

How many guns and missiles have we given to Al Queda? Obama's Fast and Furious program for the muslims to kill us.

1935 to 1939, Great Britain, Prime Ministers Stanley Baldwin and Neville Chamberlain resolutely determined to give Hitler everything he desired so as to avoid a war. A British electorate that agreed with them, despite the persistent warnings of Winston Churchill. Does anyone in 2012 America remember what happened?

2012, America, Barack Obama and Joe Biden (and the Clintons), resolutely determined to ignore Islamic terrorists and Persian lunatics so as to continue their reign of misgovernment, redistribution of other people's wealth, and racist domination. Half of the American electorate agrees with them, despite overwhelming evidence of their traitorous and incompetent record.

The Farsi and Chinese historians who may dominate published histories 50 years hence will likely marvel at how clear the choice was in 2012 in America, and how so many twice-fooled voters in that lost land made their suicidal decisions.

Printed in the Mpls Red Star, no less. The lib media can only wash and polish this prez so long, before the very foundation holding him up begins to erode. I hope they are realizing it's time to cut their losses and stop holding up an empty suit in an empty chair.

But, but, that military detachment wasn't needed in Benghazi. That dumb State Dept employee said so in the hearing. It turns out that detachment was needed for displomatic enhancement in Barbados. In fact, on the second day that detachment was there, they participating in some youth athletic event. THAT was what was important to the State Department.

The connecting arc between Osama and Obama can no longer be ignored. It's not just the superficial similarity in their names, it's the substantial similarity in their apparent common goal...the diminution of America and the establishment of a worldwide Islamic caliphate.

Osama sought to accomplish this with terrorist action. Obama is accomplishing it with cunning inaction. Look around the world. Is there any place where radical Islam is virulently on the move and where Obama has sought to stop it? No, quite the contrary. Whether it's Iran, Egypt, Syria, Libya or any of the African despotic states, Obama has not only not acted to stop Islamic takeovers, he has overtly and cleverly facilitated them.

It can even be said that Obama has been more effective in creating the worldwide Islamic caliphate than has Osama. Who can deny that?

Keeping Americans safe is the one thing Americans agree on. For a few days Americans came together in the aftermath of 9/11/2001. A tape of bin Laden helped Dubya win reelection in 2004 because we trust Republicans more than Democrats to keep us safe. This terrorist attack, preceded by pleas for additional security, is the nail in Obama's coffin as it demonstrates he has not taken his sacred job of keeping us safe seriously.

BUT the Press is still with the man, despite all of this---only a few are beginning to ask questions, and there is not tremendous follow-up. So I would bet that a great number of voters know as little about BinGazi as Fast & Furious.

To understand this situation -- you must all think like a chicago politician. Here in Chi/town -- WE the people are lied to on a continuing basis. The demorats are in such a controlling position that one "dares" not question the stories coming from the "selected" politicians.....

Next question -- why am I still here? I'm working on selling and getting out like so many others caught in the obama vice....

LZK

Obama wants to be able to tout his promises to pull out of Iraq and Afghanistan. History will show that the timing motivated on his own political needs was pure foolishness. The motivation should be ONLY based on whether or not the situation there is/was stable. The bottom line is he pulled out too soon.

It's a shame his father didn't.

I propose Axelrod did it! He conjured up the new scenario about a video for the sake of his client's poll numbers. It's the election uber allis for him and his ilk. Desperate Barry grabbed at it.
Now look at the mess you got us into Olly!

Barack Obama in "Audacity of Hope" 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'

Frank Marshall's son has placed the US and our allies in the middle of some Monty Python's Flying Circus script crossed with an Alfred Hitchcock movie and can't get out.......... until November 6th.

Fauxbama has been an unmitigated disaster in every respect (except for the careers of greenskeepers). Please, sheeple, wake up and vote this loser out.

"Present"

Obama has lost all of the right and most of the center. He dare not start losing the left by publicly defending America and our national security.

Gerson repeats the claim that Obama dare not react to these attacks for fear of erroding his base. It seems to me that only a handful of leftists are guided by principle, so he won't lose many if he initiates military action. More than likely, they're running down the clock, waiting until the two-minute warning before the election. They have to time the dog- wagging precisely to the point where details are sketchy and critical analysis of their actions isn't possible during the short period before the election. They saw how quickly George H. Bush's popularity surge disappeared after Desert Storm. Obama needs the surge, but can't risk the inevitable fall. I'm guessing we'll see a move around November 3rd or 4th.

The American that did the YouTube video "Innocence of Muslims" is in Federal prison in Los Angeles (at serious risk because of the Muslims imprisoned there). The Pakistani doctor that obtained DNA proof of Osama's location was outed by Obama and is in Pakistani prison. 14 days after the al-Quaeda attack Barack Hussein Obama insisted on the video multiple times in front of the UN General Assembly. The Democrat Party does not care about our security.

Like #12 points out it appears as thoughe Obama is trying to re-establish the caliphate. He is inordinately fond of all things Muslim to wit a ring he has worn since he was a boy in Indonesia and now serves as his wedding ring is inscribed: Obama’s Ring Inscription: THERE IS NO GOD BUT ALLAH!

There are a whole lot of little pieces that fit neatly into the big puzzle.

The most valuable agent for waging Islamic Jihad is the one in the oval orifice.

I agree, #26. The second most valuable aide to waging jihad is in the State Department, as Hillary's deputy, and married to (but for his own degeneracy) an American congressman.

Someone needs to ask this lying POSOTUS: so since you call yourself a Christian...if there's no dog but mAllard, is Jesus his son?

Is the guy who made the video actually still in jail, or has he disappeared? I ask because I am beginning to suspect that Obama and his minions hired him to MAKE the film, so that Obama could look like a big shot when he used a drone to put down some "turmoil" over there right before the election. Think about it. Never waste a crisis.

It is not an elehant in the corner of the room . IT is a Jackass.
