I've been reading lately where there was plenty of warning that this was coming down the line but no actions were taken by the current administration in an attempt to prevent it. So if anyone brings this up does that mean they are trying to to use this tragedy to their advantage?

Is this true? I missed it. How did Romeny try to use this tragedy to his advantage to gain more votes?


Yes its true , why else do you think he would slam Obama on how Obama was handling this, when he had NO clue and he was blaming Obama for what the Embassy in Egypt said.

I bet in Romney's household its a common thing to hop around on one leg as the other one is busy keepin the foot in the mouth

Oh yea, there was plenty of warning that this coming. :lol: Cause the terrorists usually give a 30 day notice.
This was nothing but acts of terrorists and they could have done it 6 months ago or 6 months from now. You could predict and prevent something like this only if you tell me that you can predict and prevent a mass shooting in a school or movie theater.
The bottom line is, its terrorists carrying these acts out in a country , but you cant hold the entire nation responsible for it. That would be like the world holding USA responsible because terrorist killed bunch of people from different countries in our country on 9/11 .

So.....what extra precautions did the current administration place into action the days before this attack took place? As I am reading there was information indicating that the level of threat where it happened was raised. The current administration was aware of the raised threat because of the video plus the annaversary of 9-11. So what extra precautionary measures did this current administration apply to the region in response to this raised level of threat?

Obama ran away to Vegas to collect money. Priorities man, priorities. Did ya hear, he raised more money than Romney, that's what his campaign is e-mailing today. Nero fiddles as the Middle East burns. But Romney spoke out of turn and that's a problem bigger than anything else.

Of course Romney being right and acting Presidential is what really has their panties in a wad. :wink:

Just helping FF with C&P the polls . Alan, you need to work a bit harder here in ohio ;)

Poll watch: Obama leads Romney in four swing states

September 14, 2012, 5:00 a.m.

New polls in four battleground states show President Obama holding a lead of 5 to 7 points over Republican nominee Mitt Romney, reinforcing the national surveys that indicate that the incumbent gained ground with his convention last week.

Of the four, Obama’s largest lead comes in the critical state of Ohio, where he leads Romney 50% to 43% among likely voters, according to the latest NBC/Wall St. Journal/Marist University poll. The survey also polled likely voters in Florida, where Obama led 49% to 43%, and Virginia, where he led 49% to 44%.

In a separate survey by New Hampshire’s WMUR-TV, Obama led Romney 45% to 40% in that state.

The polls in all four states were taken in the days immediately following the Democratic nominating convention, so they may have caught Obama at a high point. Often – although not always – candidates gain ground after their conventions, then see their support erode in subsequent weeks.

Still, the results highlight the challenge that Romney faces. To gain the 270 electoral votes he needs for election, he would need to win most of the states that the two campaigns consider battlegrounds. Currently, Obama appears to have at least a small lead in all those states except for North Carolina, where recent polls have shown the two neck and neck.

The new swing-state polls show two reasons why Obama has maintained that lead: Voters continue to view him more favorably than Romney, and Romney has been unable to persuade swing-state voters that he would be better able to handle the economy.

The gap in favorability is particularly large in Ohio, where 51% of likely voters have a favorable impression of Obama while only 40% feel that way about Romney. In other states, Romney comes closer to parity with Obama, but only in Virginia does the Republican nominee get a net-favorable rating, 46% to 45%, compared with 53% to 43% for Obama.

Asked which candidate could best handle the economy, Ohio voters, again, have the most negative view of Romney. In that state, likely voters favor Obama on the economy by 48% to 44% for Romney.

The Obama campaign has spent the summer bombarding Ohio voters with advertisements criticizing Romney’s business and economic record. In particular, they have emphasized the president’s decision to bail out the U.S. automobile industry, which Romney opposed. The state has a large number of jobs tied to the car and truck business.

In national surveys, Romney used to enjoy majority support on the question of who could better handle the economy, but he’s lost that margin since the Democratic convention. Support on that question is key for his campaign since Obama gets much higher marks on other issues, including who could best handle foreign policy.

The escalation of threat is in Libya. I never said throughout the entire world. The current administration had heads up that there was a serious escalation of threat in Libya due to a number of incidences such as the anti-Muslim video, the anniversary of 9-11, and I'm sure many other piece of intelligence we as civilians don't have access to.

What did the current administration do to deal with that growing threat in Libya?

You pick a dart and throw it at the middle east map and you will hit a spot where there is chance of escalation for threat to US.
We simply dont have enough resources to watch every single neighbourhood over there 24/7.
What do YOU suggest they should have done ?? How can you prevent something when you dont even know what it is gonna turn into?

How about for starters informing the staff of the situation, assigning well trained and equipped troops on location or moving the staff to a more secure location. Two Navy SEALs with very limited access to firearms if any at all isn't sufficient. Obama’s hard at work as we speak reviewing such strategies now. Too little too late.

I'd be willing to bet more will come out of this in the way of documented proof that there was ample warning of an imminent threat against that specific embassy in that specific timeframe. Though with this current administration, it will probably be handled much like the Fast and Furious documentation is.

Again, you dont get it, we dont have enough resources to minimize acts of terrorism in OTHER counrties. Do you know how many of OUR people we would have to send over there to have this so called equipped troops ON LOCATION at every little town and city in Middle East ?
And even if we had the money and did all that, nothing would prevent one of the morons over there strapping a bomb to himself and killing a dozen of our well trained troops. You're too drunk off the koolaid from other side, but the reality of the matter is that we had a tragedy that could not have been avoided , no matter who was in office, so your accusations of the current administration not doing enough just doesnt hold. This isnt hollywood where we manage to find out what the bad guy is about to and prevent it 1 second before the bomb goes off. This is real life, windbag! ;)

I think we have ample resources to up the security of the embassy in Libya.

However Behshad, I'll go easy and give your boy the benefit of the doubt on this one, much like I did when he first went into office. Ok so maybe he and his administration didn't know there was imminent danger that there could be a takeover and subsequent murder at the facility in Libya. I'll give him and his administration the benefit of the doubt. However if documents surface exposing the contrary, I'm going full bore. Fair enough?

BENGHAZI, Libya — The attack that killed four Americans in Libya, including the U.S. ambassador, was an organized two-part operation by heavily armed militants that included a precisely timed raid on a supposedly secret safe house just as Libyan and U.S. security forces were arriving to rescue evacuated consulate staff, a senior Libyan security official said on Thursday.

U.S. officials have said attackers broke into the main consulate building at around 10:15 p.m. and set the compound on fire. Amid the evacuation, Stevens became separated from others, and staffers and security that tried to find him were forced to flee by flames, smoke and gunfire. After an hour, according to U.S. officials, U.S. and Libyan officials drove the attackers from the consulate.

The next attack came hours later. Around 30 American staffers along with Libyans had been evacuated to the safe house while a plane arrived from Tripoli with a joint U.S.-Libyan security group that was to fly them back to the capital, el-Sharef said.

"According to senior diplomatic sources, the US State Department had credible information 48 hours before mobs charged the consulate in Benghazi, and the embassy in Cairo, that American missions may be targeted, but no warnings were given for diplomats to go on high alert and "lockdown", under which movement is severely restricted."

I did read that before. I want to wait and see how far it goes. Just giving one of Jerry's kids, er I mean Obama's guys the benefit of the doubt.

Ambassador Chris Stevens did not have a Marine detail in Benghazi, Libya. But White House Senior Advisor and Obama confidante Valerie Jarrett has a full Secret Service detail on vacation in Martha’s Vineyard, according to Democratic pollster Pat Caddell.

That’s the pathetic foreign policy of the Obama administration, says Caddell today in an exclusive interview. “Jarrett seems to have a 24 hour, around the clock detail, with five or six agents full time,” Caddell explains. “The media has been completely uninterested. We don’t provide security for our ambassador in Libya, but she needs a full Secret Service security detail. And nobody thinks there’s anything wrong with this. And nobody in the press will ask. What kind of slavish stoogery are they perpetrating here?

“This country has reached the point of absurdity. There are people dead because we don’t have security details for them. But she’s privileged to have a full Secret Service detail on vacation?”

Caddell points out that Americans are already unhappy with President Obama on foreign policy aside from the killing of Osama Bin Laden. Caddell, along with Republican pollster John McLaughlin, runs Secure America, a nonpartisan advocacy group. “We’ve just finished two polls coming out in the field today,” says Caddell, “but we already know that people feel strongly about Iran; they feel strongly about the administration’s policy with regard to Islamic extremists. They don’t like the Obama administration’s handling of these issues. And this election won’t only be about the economy. The American people aren’t stupid. They can walk and chew gum at the same time.”


Bunch of BS as always.

There were marines on spot who evacuated the Americans , but Stevens became separated from the group. ;)

Of course if Romney was in office, none of this would have happened as Romney would have gone there right before the attacks and protected everybody with his magica bulletproof cape !

From early reports that I read, the two Navy SEALs were not on location when the issue first occurred. They were actually "sent" to the ambassador’s aid. Now I'm not sure when they say "send" how far that means they were from him, same compound, other building on the compound, other location off the compound grounds, etc. Obviously it doesn't look like there was much security if any. The "gamer" seemed to be the only other person on location with the ambassador himself at the time of the initial attack. When the two SEALs arrived on scene, they immediately had to take cover and that's when they were overpowered.

Clarification anyone?

unfortunately B is wrong, as usual. The Fed Gov, with their various and assorted intelligence gathering capabilities apparently missed what one lonely blogger posted on 9/10. Maybe The Won should start attending his intelligence briefings or at the least read the blogosphire. :wink:


Jihadi groups in Egypt, including Islamic Jihad, the Sunni Group, and Al Gamaa Al Islamiyya have issued a statement threatening to burn the U.S. Embassy in Cairo to the ground.

According to El Fagr, they are calling for the immediate release of the Islamic jihadis who are imprisonment and in detention centers in the U.S. including Guantanamo Bay: “The group, which consists of many members from al-Qaeda, called [especially] for the quick release of the jihadi [mujahid] sheikh, Omar Abdul Rahman [the "Blind Sheikh"], whom they described as a scholar and jihadi who sacrificed his life for the Egyptian Umma, who was ignored by the Mubarak regime, and [President] Morsi is refusing to intervene on his behalf and release him, despite promising that he would. The Islamic Group has threatened to burn the U.S. Embassy in Cairo with those in it, and taking hostage those who remain [alive], unless the Blind Sheikh is immediately released.”

So you want the President to sit down all day and read blogs all over the internet just to see if he can find any possible threats he can prevent ?

Why dont we just suggest this to all law inforcements too? Instead of cops patrolling the streets or solving crimes, what better than tweeting and FaceBooking all day and hoping to catch a crime before it happens .

:lol:

Oh yea, there was plenty of warning that this coming. Cause the terrorists usually give a 30 day notice.
This was nothing but acts of terrorists and they could have done it 6 months ago or 6 months from now. You could predict and prevent something like this only if you tell me that you can predict and prevent a mass shooting in a school or movie theater.
The bottom line is, its terrorists carrying these acts out in a country , but you cant hold the entire nation responsible for it. That would be like the world holding USA responsible because terrorist killed bunch of people from different countries in our country on 9/11 .



unfortunately B is wrong, as usual. The Fed Gov, with their various and assorted intelligence gathering capabilities apparently missed what one lonely blogger posted on 9/10. Maybe The Won should start attending his intelligence briefings or at the least read the blogosphire. :wink:


Jihadi groups in Egypt, including Islamic Jihad, the Sunni Group, and Al Gamaa Al Islamiyya have issued a statement threatening to burn the U.S. Embassy in Cairo to the ground.

According to El Fagr, they are calling for the immediate release of the Islamic jihadis who are imprisonment and in detention centers in the U.S. including Guantanamo Bay: “The group, which consists of many members from al-Qaeda, called [especially] for the quick release of the jihadi [mujahid] sheikh, Omar Abdul Rahman [the "Blind Sheikh"], whom they described as a scholar and jihadi who sacrificed his life for the Egyptian Umma, who was ignored by the Mubarak regime, and [President] Morsi is refusing to intervene on his behalf and release him, despite promising that he would. The Islamic Group has threatened to burn the U.S. Embassy in Cairo with those in it, and taking hostage those who remain [alive], unless the Blind Sheikh is immediately released.”

Well, he could learn alot from my posts. :wink: Nice deflection though, if a blogger found this info you can bet your ass the FBI,CIA, and all the other alphabets knew it as well. Just admit it. :wink:



OK so you basically think that CIA & FBI etc are just simply slacking because Obama is the President and they would perform a lot better if Romney was in office ?! :? :lol:

No One Murdered Because Of This Image

Image

WASHINGTON—Following the publication of the image above, in which the most cherished figures from multiple religious faiths were depicted engaging in a lascivious sex act of considerable depravity, no one was murdered, beaten, or had their lives threatened, sources reported Thursday. The image of the Hebrew prophet Moses high-fiving Jesus Christ as both are having their erect penises vigorously masturbated by Ganesha, all while the Hindu deity anally penetrates Buddha with his fist, reportedly went online at 6:45 p.m. EDT, after which not a single bomb threat was made against the organization responsible, nor did the person who created the cartoon go home fearing for his life in any way. Though some members of the Jewish, Christian, Hindu, and Buddhist faiths were reportedly offended by the image, sources confirmed that upon seeing it, they simply shook their heads, rolled their eyes, and continued on with their day.

By all accounts Mitt Romney’s 1994 trip to the nation’s largest homeless shelter was accurately described by the Boston Globe as “not one of the brighter moments of his campaign for US senator.” Romney was visiting the homeless shelter, located in Boston, by invitation of the shelter’s executive director Ken Smith.

“I invited both Kennedy and Romney to the shelter and since both were based out of Boston, it got onto both of their busy schedules to come and take a tour of our facility and have a talk with the hundreds of homeless veterans who lived at the shelter,” Smith wrote in January.

Smith reported that Kennedy’s visit to the shelter had gone routinely saying that his visit was brief and that he seemed generally impressed with the good work they had done with an old VA hospital.
“He congratulated us on our programs and promised if he was elected to the senate for another term, he would befriend the shelter and that’s exactly what he did,” Smith wrote.

The shelter was similar to a “boot camp” for homeless veterans and Smith explained to Romney that homeless vets were expected to "get tough or get out," during his visit after Kennedy's.

It was at the end of Romney’s visit that his notorious gaffe occurred. Romney was preparing to leave the shelter, so he pulled Smith aside, in front of the media, to ask him his biggest problem at the shelter.
Smith replied “milk.”

Smith explained that the State of Massachusetts allocated $2.37 per day twice a day for each homeless veteran’s meal. Since the amount was so meager, the shelter had trouble providing each veteran with a carton of milk at each meal.

Romney responded “well Ken, maybe you can teach the vets to milk cows.” Romney then walked out the door.

Smith’s was befuddled. A local reporter, equally stunned, came over to Smith to ask if he heard what he had thought.

The press went wild with the comment. Smith received an angry call from the Romney campaign saying Romney obviously didn’t think the veterans should be milking cows. The next day Romney personally called to apologize and mention how impressed he was with the concept of the shelter.

The Boston Globe also reported on some good fallout from the gaffe.

Since reports of Romney's gaffe circulated, the shelter has received donations from two local dairies. Cumberland Farms provided a Veterans Day breakfast and will donate 2,000 pints for the week between Christmas and New Year's. And Hood has just promised 50 cases of pint cartons.

A week later Smith received a call from his shelter’s milk supplier. An anonymous donor had agreed to pay half the shelter’s milk costs, for the next several years.

Years later, Smith found out that Mitt Romney was the anonymous donor, paying the costs out of his own pocket

Romney didn’t send out a press release during his campaign. He didn’t boast about his donation, and he hasn’t mentioned it since. In an election where his Romney’s opponents have painted him as cold and heartless, the donation shows Romney at his most compassionate.
