    This thread has turned awful.

    And I for one, am shocked FB is not an Obama supporter.

    No, it's definite. Like I said before I'll be voting for Stewart Alexander. If I didn't live in CA. where Obama is sure to win it would be different. If I lived in a swing state I'd vote for Obama, but I don't. Since Romney has not put CA. in play, then Obama won't be getting my vote.

    Total media blackout on this other than Fox News. They have no interest in finding out who who gave the stand down order that got our men killed. An utter disgrace.

    If you think a firefight went on for 7 hours on 9-11 and the President wasn't told about it and weighed in on it, you are blinded by ignorance. Obama wants all the credit for the Seals killing Bin Laden but he can't take the heat for failing to act to save the lives of 4 Americans

    So, are you in solidarity with dumb ass Bush? Honestly, this thread disgusts me. Some of you need to just stop watching cable news for a while. It has totally warped your view of the world.

    Let's contemplate why that is hoss.

    I'm thinking it's because there is no story and Fox is just trying to generate one to attack the president.

    Not really the facts. You're wrong or have missed some events. Obama has said that he accepts full responsibility for what happened in Benghazi. He said that he was the President and that the buck stops with him.

    I'm sorry you based your opinion based on misinformation. It's good that the facts are now out there.

    The disgrace is that FOX news believes this is news.

    Can you post the link where Obama accepted resposibility for not sending help? As of Friday, Obama wouldn't even give a direct answer whether or not calls for help were received.

    Thanks in advance.

    1) They aren't telling us what happened in Benghazi. We heard the father of the murdered SEAL asking why no help was given to his son and who denied it to him.

    2) You don't take responsibility by saying "I take responsibility", there has to be actual affirmative actions that go along with it (firings, resignations, explanations, naming of names).

    That whole thing has been debunked in this thread. Did you miss that too?

    See only some gutsy calls are worth reporting about.

    The ones that get Americans killed, we'll just ignore those.

    That would almost kind of make sense if the president actually said "LOL don't send help!" as you seem to believe. Seeing as how that isn't the case, keep screaming in the wind.

    Yep, our men were under attack for seven hours and the President had zero input. Makes a ton of sense.

    The CIA has already issued a statement saying they were not the ones that issued the stand down order.

    Neither am I, and most repugs on here tell me I'm defending him most of the time. Just because I don't support your illogical claims doesn't make me pro-obama.

    Koji - here is another report from the outside.

    this explosive story appears to be consigned to the ash heap of Fox News and is now the subject of whiny pieces like this.

    Hope things are going well for you on the inside.
