White House cover up of Libya attack

What do you think of this? It's troubling that the White House administration placed so much emphasis on blaming the attack on a spontaneous outburst in response to the anti Muslim film. Even before it came out that it was indeed a pre planned terrorist attack, it seems like many were skeptical of the White House's down play of the whole thing and response. Honestly it makes me sick to think of what happened to these American men, and even sicker that more security was requested and denied, according to reports. And then the Secretary of State and President apologizing for a religious YouTube video, wtf? Im sure everyone knows what happened to the Ambassador at this point; he deserves more than this. They are still investigating it. Do you think this will affect voters' opinions?

  • This could cost Obama the win. Undecided voters who are paying attention will most likely take this into account. 

     

     

  • When there is an ongoing investigation that requires cooperation of foreign officials and governments, it's important not to piss off those officials and governments.

    The security that was requested and denied is a direct result of Republicans cutting funding. It's actually pretty typical; around here Republicans like to vote no for taxes to fund fire protection, then whine about a lack of fire protection when fires happen.

    Your response makes little sense. Please support the fact that it was Republicans that cut funding and thus, are responsible for the incident.

    Do Dems take responsibility for nothing? Everything that bad that has ever happened during Obama's term has been the Reps fault. Really?

  • and apparently it's romney/ryans fault now...the attack.  don't know if you saw the video that came out today
