v I think worse of Romney

Neither Obama nor Romney were candidates in my my mind in the election on November 6th. Romney should not have used that issue in his campaign. I expect Obama does not make the decisions as to what foreign facility is beefed up and which one is not. As members of the House have just pointed out, the House controls the purse.

I had so many doubts concerning the president up front but this scandal was definitely assuring to me that he is not who I want for our president !!! I frankly thought he was too quick to make a true explanation concerning the attack to have been correct initially & that threw a red flag up for me !! Then as he so willfully was confidant in blaming the video for such a violent act & again essentially blaming America as he apparently has done before with blaming American citizens for others wrongful actions !! As all that has unfolded concerning the attack in Libya his lack of true interest in the American people and our country and all that America represents is so pr...

9/11 and this situation have nothing to do with one another except for the fact they both happened on 9/11 . Where did republicans kill thousands ? Obama watched these 4 Americans ask for help and refused the seals 2 times to go help protect the embassy so they broke the orders to go protect it on there own . There real Heroes while Obama watched them die on tv after sitting on his hands . Then to top it off he is covering up what he knew when he knew it . He's already been caught lieing about the damn YouTube video he said caused it .

@Citrus93ta the bush administration allowed 9/11 to happen first off they had months of warnings from multiple intelligence agency's saying a attack is going to happen within days and look what happened thousands of people died and than bush and chenny covered up what they knew and republicans blocked any kind of real investigation the 9/11 commission was a joke there wasn't anything in there that bush and Cheney did not want to be there then Cheney Seen his chance to invade Iraq and still oil so they came up with this BS cover story about WMDS and after Lying to the world come to find out there were no WMDs and thousands of people died in the Iraq war that by the ...

Bush did nothing 3. It cost thousands of lives when bush chose not to act 4. Cheney came up with the idea of saying WMDs were in Iraq 5. There were no WMDs in Iraq 6. The 9/11 commission was censored 7. Bush did business with the bin ladens mostly Osamas brother 8. Bush told the CIA to stop looking for Osama and disbanded the team looking for him 9. There is billions of dollars in fraud from private contractors 10. Republicans have blocked any kind of inv...

I find the administrations reaction appalling and to bring more attention to a video that most people around the world had no clue about was even worse for our national security. I find it even more disgraceful that the media lets this president get away with anything he wants.

That's because we have nothing to gain. From what I can tell we aren't even sure what factions are controlling movements or how many factions are involved. I don't think Obama would support it anyway; for other reasons. But I think it is the correct choice.

Its easy to play armchair general, when it isn't your neck on the line if everything doesn't go to plan. Hindsight is 20/20 Mitt, you think JFK would have agreed to the bay of pigs if he knew how things would turn out? NO WAY. Tell us how we can make things better going forward and stop with the blame game.

The bottom line is the candidates are nothing more than political operatives fighting for the top job. They will say and do virtually anything to gain your vote, thus securing a fat pension with benefits for life. That is the end game for these guys. The welfare of the country is an after thought and nuance to them.

The president of the United States should have been all over this issue. Instead he was defensive of the very people who where doing the killing. He lied and said it was not an attack just protestors got out of hand. It was an attack a well thought out attack. Security was low because he wanted it that way, or else there would have been better. These people even knew about a safe house for crying out loud and yet for days he done nothing but blame the American people for a video that was "supposed" to cause all this uproar. So yes, his foreign policy is weak, his decision making is weak and I think less of him.

Much to the delight of Romney and his team that someone died, especially on 9/11 so they can make a political play on the deaths of US citizens. This is typical of the republican right as you seen them kill job bills and most every attempt to help this country in the past four years. Their only agenda was to regain the white house. God forbid if you do something good for the country instead of what is good for your political careers.

I didn't think I could get my Opinion of Obama any lower, but this issue has done just that. He tried to explain away the loss of life from a terroist attack on 9-11 Anniversary with a lie, and have others in his administration do the same. This is just another example of the many failed Obama polocies. Obama must be defeated..!!!!

This shows the lack of leadership in the White House. A real leader would have been in the situation room holding a meeting the next morning and asking the questions needed. Instead, Barack Husssein Obama was on the way to Las Vegas to have a fund raiser with his Hollywood butt train. But, I guess it a matter of priorities with him. This ignoramus needs to go. We stand leaderless and embarassed before the world.

I hope it comes out in the upcoming congressional and senate hearings, why the ambassador was sent to ben ghazi on 9-11 and who's weapons were used in the attack. I suspect they were the very same weapons obama suoplied to the alqueada terrorists in his "ARAB SPRING". We already know the seals were there specicically to find and des...
