“Based on information provided to the committee by individuals with direct knowledge of events in Libya, the attack that claimed the ambassador’s life was the latest in a long line of attacks on Western diplomats and officials in Libya in the months leading up to September 11, 2012. In addition, multiple U.S. federal government officials have confirmed to the committee that, prior to the September 11 attack, the U.S. mission in Libya made repeated requests for increased security in Benghazi. The mission in Libya, however, was denied these resources by officials in Washington.” 

That is just PART of the language used last week by oversight committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., and Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, as they demand answers regarding the terrorist attack in Libya…NOW MORE THAN 3 WEEKS AGO!!!

Let me tell you something…

The Chain of Command Here is EXTREMELY SHORT!!!

The Consulate in Benghazi had ALREADY BEEN THE TARGET OF 4 ATTACKS IN THE MONTHS PRIOR TO THE DEADLY ATTACK AND ONE OF THOSE PRIOR ATTACKS…WAS AN IED AT THE GATE OF THE CONSULATE WHICH BLEW A HOLE BIG ENOUGH FOR…40…PEOPLE TO WALK THROUGH!!!!!

Requests for increased security would have gone to the State Department.

Hillary Clinton IS the Secretary of State.

Her boss is Barack Hussein Obama.

THAT’S IT!!!

THAT IS THE ENTIRE CHAIN OF COMMAND!!!

Now…for any liberals reading this…

I can fully understand if an Ambassador asks for extra security in the Bahamas…It would go to a lower level State Dept. person and proceed through channels until somebody sent that Ambassador an government issued 1.2 million dollar UMBRELLA TO PROTECT HIM FROM EXCESS SUN SHINE AND THE OCCASIONAL PARROT POOP…

But that’s NOT what we’re talking about here.

THIS IS LIBYA…BENGHAZI…A PLACE RIFE WITH AL QAEDA TERRORISTS…THERE HAVE BEEN 4 ATTACKS…WITH EXPLOSIVES…THERE’S A GAPING HOLE IN THE WALL SURROUNDING THE CONSULATE…THE AMBASSADOR HEARS THAT HE’S ON AN AL QAEDA HIT LIST…THERE’S CHATTER OF MORE ATTACKS TO COME…THE 11^TH ANNIVERSARY OF 9-11 IS COMING UP…

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY ON GOD’S GREEN EARTH YOU CAN MAKE ME BELIEVE THAT THESE REQUESTS…8 OF THEM…FOR STEPPED UP SECURITY…DID NOT GO, AT LIGHT SPEED…TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE AND THERE IS EVEN LESS REASON TO BELIEVE THAT SHE DIDN’T BRING IT TO THE ATTENTION OF HER BOSS…BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA!!!!!

That’s IT…The ENTIRE CHAIN OF COMMAND!!!

Hillary and Obama.

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.

Most recently…They had James Clapper say that HE was the one who didn’t get the proper Intell to the White House.

HE’S THE HEAD OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE FOR GOD’S SAKE!!!

Nobody bought Clapper’s latest crapper.

Before he could be impeached, and he would have been impeached because he had lost the support of Republicans and Democrats alike…Nixon resigned his office over the cover-up of a 3^rd rate burglary. Nobody even broke a fingernail.

Now…We have an oval office occupier who, since the middle of last year, has attended only 38% of his Daily Intell Briefings and, in the most dangerous part of the world, on arguably the most dangerous day of the year for Americans IN that part of the world…LEFT AMERICAN DIPLOMATS AND MILITARY MEMBERS LIKE SITTING DUCKS IN A SHOOTING GALLERY!!!

4 OF THEM WERE MURDERED BY OUR ENEMY…AL QAEDA AND WHAT DOES THE OCCUPIER DO THE VERY NEXT MORNING???

HE STARTS COVERING UP THE WHOLE TERRORIST ATTACK!!!!

Next week, there will be congressional hearings and among those being questioned will be Hillary Clinton and the head of security for the Benghazi Consulate, Lt. Col. Andy Wood.

Here Are the Questions That I Would Like to Have Answered.

Ltc. Wood…When you asked for stepped up security…To whom were those requests sent and what reasons were you given for those requests being denied?

Ltc Wood…How dangerous did YOU believe the situation was in Benghazi before the terrorist attack and what was YOUR impression of how dangerous Ambassador Stevens felt the situation was?

Ltc. Wood…What reason were you given for DECREASING the Ambassador’s security detail when YOU and YOUR team were REMOVED from that detail last August, one month before the terrorist attack?

Secretary of State Clinton…Were YOU aware of the requests made for extra security in Benghazi and if not, why the hell not?

Secretary of State Clinton…As the head of our diplomatic corps around the world, were you aware that Libya was a very dangerous place and that al Qaeda was a threat there and if not, why the hell not?

Secretary of State Clinton…Although members of the press managed to not only find THEIR way in and out of Benghazi and as we know that some even came out with evidence from the scene of the attack…the area was deemed TOO VOLATILE for the FBI to be there.  If the area, Benghazi was that dangerous…A) Why did we have an Ambassador there to begin with? B) Why was the Consulate hardened as per requirements? C) Why were our diplomats NOT better protected? And D) If you don’t know the answers to the previous questions, why the hell don’t you?

Secretary of State Clinton…As we now know that this WAS classified as a terrorist attack within mere hours OF the terrorist attack…Who gave the order that it would be portrayed to the American people as a spontaneous event as the result of a You Tube Movie that virtually nobody had ever seen and who, exactly, sent Ambassador Rice out to portray it as something it clearly wasn’t 5 days after the terrorist attack?

Secretary of State Clinton…Did you bring with you today, your letter of resignation and if not…WHY THE HELL NOT???

Last week, 23 days after the terrorist attack in Benghazi which killed 4 Americans, the FBI finally arrived in Benghazi. They spent a total of 12 hours in the city and, as we understand it, 3 hours at the scene of the attack.

It’s not hard to believe that after 23 days, there was little if any evidence to collect or investigate.

We Are Now Less Than a Month From the Election.

Coincidence? Clearly not.

Clearly, admitting a terrorist attack in which 4 Americans were killed would not have looked any better, politically, for Obama that would have fortifying a Consulate or sending extra security to protect our diplomats in a country which Obama claimed to have secured by leading from behind.

Sending special ops to that Consulate immediately after the attack may well have preserved evidence that would have told us who exactly was responsible and from where they obtained the weapons used IN that terrorist attack.

Holding the FBI out of the scene of the attack for more than 3 weeks ensures that evidence would either be gone or, so contaminated as to be unusable.

From the day Gaddafi was killed, the flag of al Qaeda was flying over the courthouse in Benghazi. One would have had to have been in a coma not to know the dangers there. Ambassador Stevens was sent to Libya, under the radar, literally arriving on a cargo ship to set up shop.

The Ambassador himself feared for his life and at least 8 request for extra security were made in the months leading to the terrorist attack, all of which were either ignored or denied.

Rather than INCREASING security in Benghazi…the State Department DECREASED security for Ambassador Stevens.

After the terrorist attack which claimed the lives of 4 Americans, specific and calculated attempts were made to portray that attack is something completely different to the American people and all the while, this administration knew the truth.

While the FBI spend 3 weeks in Tripoli NOT investigating the attack, we were told that the investigation was ongoing.

Now, we’re being told that it was the Intell community which broke down and that somehow, squabbling between security firms led to the lax security BEFORE the attack and incomplete intelligence AFTER the attack led to the misinformation fed to the American people.

BULL!!!

Cover up? WHAT cover up???
