Unfolding Libyan scandal could sink Obama and end Hillary’s political career

As more information comes out on the murder of our Libyan Ambassador and 3 other Americans during the assault in Benghazi…. the more incriminating it gets for the higher ups in Washington DC.

Our murdered ambassador, Chris Stevens, had repeatedly been requesting more security  in the months before the attack.  Those requests seemed to have been routinely ignored.  Shockingly, we are now finding out, a key special security force was withdrawn shortly before the attack.

The administrations original story, “the attack was a spontaneous angry reaction to a video,” has been thoroughly debunked.  This makes the situation more dire politically for the administration, with only days before the election.

Conflicting stories and finger pointing are erupting between the State Department, the Whitehouse and the intelligence community.

To compound the problem for the Obama administration, Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta, claimed yesterday, there was no “real time intel” to base a decision on whether to send help to the besieged consulate.

But according to Fox News,  CIA sources say there was a wealth of "real-time information" coming in, including two military surveillance drones and those who were on the ground.  The communication from the CIA annex about a mile away from the consulate was "constant":

The latest bombshell now shows the attack was a 7 hour ordeal.  There was plenty of time to send help to the besieged Americans.  Repeated pleas for help from those on the scene were denied by those higher up.

At one point during the battle a CIA operative pinpointed the mortar team which was bombarding the complex. He radioed for fire support from a Specter gunship, commonly used by U.S. Special Ops to provide support to teams on the ground.  Even though an American airbase was only an hour away, no gunships arrived. 

Further, Fox News learned, no Tier One Special operations forces, among them Delta Force operators, showed up to help, which were also within range and able to help if authorized.

But heroism stood front and center in spite of the indecision emanating from Washington.  Ex-SEAL Tyrone Woods, hearing the fire fight from his position at the CIA annex 1 mile from the consulate radioed for permission to go the aid of his fellow Americans.  Twice he was told to stand down.  After the 2^nd denial of his request, he and 3 others disobeyed orders and made their way to the consulate.  When they arrived, they came under fire, but were able to evacuate those who remained back to the CIA annex.

Heroic Ex SEAL Tyrone Woods was later killed defending against another attack on the CIA annex by the heavily armed militants. Woods had heard the urgent call for help from his fellow Americans and couldn’t turn a deaf ear.  For that he paid the ultimate price.

If the same measure of heroism that Tyrone Woods displayed prevailed in Washington DC…..Perhaps the deaths of our Americans in Libya could have been avoided.

Every day more shocking details of the Libyan disaster unfold and it gets worse for the Obama administration.  The first and most shocking fact is that we left our Ambassador woefully under protected and a sitting duck in a very hostile environment.  The 2^nd is that when they came under attack, the administration didn’t provide the help they needed to save their lives.

Vice President Biden, in another bizarre display of his personality disorder, tried to console the father of Chris Woods by telling him 'Did your son always have balls the size of cue balls?'  Charles Woods was highly offended by this remark and talked about this and other shabby treatment towards him by President Obama and Hillary Clinton, in a UK Mailonline article.

Some political pundits are saying this scandal is far worse than the Watergate scandal, which forced a President to resign.  In Watergate no one died. As this unfolds, the casualties to political careers could prove fatal to all of those involved, including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

Governor Huckabee compares Libyan cover up to Watergate & Lewinsky scandals

Most transparent of administrations?

Governor Mike Huckabee, spoke on Fox News this morning and opined on the unfolding Libyan embassy scandal.  The attack which killed our ambassador and 3 other Americans is turning out to be nothing like the administration has been telling the public for the weeks following the attack.

The Governor said something very important, touching upon a core principle of our republic: “The uniqueness of our country says that government serves us, they can’t serve us when they are not honest with us.” 

He went on to say:

"Nixon resigned because he got caught lying. Clinton was impeached because he lied.  The cataclysmic events that happened to Clinton and Nixon, were not because of the transgressions themselves, but they lied about the cover up.  But in their cases no one died."

"But facts bear out we have been blatantly lied to by our leaders about the attack on our Libyan Embassy. President Obama and his administration has knowingly been untruthful with the American public."

The Governor clarified his position by saying “I am not demanding impeachment, but I am suggesting the American people demand the real truth.”

Facts show this administration know it was a terrorist attack almost immediately, they even knew who some of the suspects were.  The attack had nothing to do with the cheesy anti Islamic video, like his underlings tried to convince us of.

--------------------------

This administration sent the press secretary and its UN Ambassador out to deliberately deceive the public. 

Huckabee said: "If we held Nixon and Clinton to standards of honesty, why don’t we hold this President to the same standards?"

There is a pattern of denial by the Obama administration and it shows they want to ignore there is Islamic terrorism being waged against us.

During the Fort Hood Texas shooting, Major Hassan killed 14 fellow service members as he chanted an Islamic prayer.  The administration is still calling this a workplace violence incident.  There are many other similar incidents pock marking the history of this administration.

To further  dispute the administrations version of the Libyan Embassy attack was just a “spontaneous event,” yesterday it was learned the FBI agents sent to Libya two weeks ago have not been able to visit the consulate.…Why?  Because the area is too dangerous.

Romney the statesman calls Mideast policy a disaster, as Obama the politician does fundraisers.

 Just hours after the brutal murder of our Ambassador  in Benghazzi Libya and the assault on our embassy in Cairo,  Mitt Romney spoke for America when he expressed the outrage at the murderous acts. He said America should not apologize to anyone when an American gets murdered.

"I’m outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi," Romney said in a statement late Tuesday night, "It’s disgraceful that the Obama Administration’s first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks." 

Romney had remarked on the politically correct statement that emanated from the Cairo Egypt embassy which is the official spokesman of the Obama Administration: 

"The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims – as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions," the statement read. "Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy. We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others."

Where was President Obama as rescuers frantically searched for our Ambassador in the smoking wreck of our Benghazzi embassy?  Standing by on alert as commander in chief, ready to make crucial decisions? No, he was sleeping comfortably in bed, he had a big day of campaigning and fund raising ahead of him. President Obama did not a miss a planned campaign stop or fund raiser as our Mideast embassies came under siege.

The Obama administrations milquetoast, politically correct response to violence against Americans is to apologize to those committing the violence.  They blame this anti American violence on a juvenile grade U tube video made by a few people in the US that put the Islamic religion in a bad light.

The United States is still a free country and can practice freedom of speech, there’s nothing to apologize about.

You don’t see American streets filled with murderous mobs when a far left government sponsored “artist” puts a crucifix in a jar of urine and call it art.  You never saw any American cities burn when another “artist” took a painting of Jesus Mother Mary and spread elephant dung on it…No the left celebrated those daring artworks and put them in museums.

But the rioting and violence afflicting many parts of the Mideast is just using this corny video as a pretext for violence,  it is a smokescreen for the anger and resentment towards Western civilization and a way to further subvert American prestige in the area.

President Obama made his apology tour to the Islamic countries, promising a new way and respect for Muslim countries…..He was not their enemy.   He seemed to think his mea culpa for Americas past transgressions, real or imagined, and just his presence was a magic solution.  He seemed to think if he kicked our ally, Israel, to the back of the bus he would gain friendship in the Muslim world.

The naivete of this attitude is now being reflected as Iran races towards nuclear capability and America is faced with increasing scorn and violence, where the Obama policy wonks predicted there would be love, adoration and peace.....now that Bush was out of the way.

As events unfold in this dangerous part of the world, it is plain the Obama administration is in way over its head.  Hillary, looks exhausted and at her wits end as she expresses surprise at the violence. Mitt Romney has been a vociferous supporter of our ally Israel as the weak foreign policy of the Obama administration endangers Israels existence.

There should have been no surprise from Obama or Hillary Clinton at this turn of events.  It has been reported there was intelligence given to the White house 48 hours in advance, attacks were coming....It was the anniversary of 911 after all.

But what is plain to see in this part of the world that after almost 4 years of hope and change to our foreign policy: Our friends no longer trust us and our enemies no longer fear us.
