They Will Lie To Us About Anything
Mike Huckabee
The White House continues to deny it had any warnings of the deadly attack in Libya, but that’s getting harder to swallow by the day. We now have sworn testimony that officials in Libya repeatedly requested more security and were refused. Next, the Administration blamed Republican budget cuts. It turns out the GOP House increased embassy funding by $100 million, but the Administration chose to hire cheap Libyan locals as consulate guards, while spending 100 grand to put Chevy Volt recharging stations in our embassy in Vienna. Now, some people are finally starting to ask what the media would be saying if this preventable disaster had happened under President Bush. I can’t imagine – but then, I can’t imagine Bush skipping 60 percent of his security briefings. This is an issue that is not going away, and it’s not about the politics of it---it’s about the American people having a right to a government that won’t play us as fools.
With the unfolding facts not going their way, the Obama campaign is now attempting to spin this as politically-motivated. Obama’s deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter even suggested that it’s only news because of Mitt Romney making a big deal out of it. First, I doubt that Mitt Romney has the power to determine what reporters write, or the campaign news would’ve been very different up until now. Secondly, to suggest that a security lapse like this, that resulted in the deaths of four brave Americans in a terrorist attack on our own soil on the anniversary of 9/11 wouldn’t even have been news if it weren’t an election year is an insult to the victims’ memories and families and to every American’s intelligence.
The fact is, if our government will lie to us about Benghazi, they’ll lie to us about anything. If the political consequences are more important to this administration than the consequences to you and your family, then we have to believe that this election is not just a choice between Democrats and Republicans. It’s a choice between an America that’s owned by the people and served by the government, or an America that is owned by a government that desires to be served by the people.

Check out the deteriorating situation: attacks on the British consulate, the Red Cross, and the outer wall of our consulate. In a recent interview Senator McCann and Senator Ayotte describe the situation well: either incompetence or a cover-up till after the election.

We THE AMERICAN PEOPLE deserve to know the truth! We want answers. Will we get them? I think the answer is no. Wait til after the election. He only want's to be re-elected. He will probably will do something to get re-elected.

PLEASE . . the regular media has not put this together not even Fox . . the transcript of the exchange concerning Lybia set out on CNN clearly indicates that Obama expected Crowley to be prepared to refute Romney . He said " get the transcript" to her and she immediately responded. They were acting as a tag team. . this shows corruption . . I'm a lawyer and if you showed that to any jury you would convince them. . . the debate was a sham. Crowley was too immediately ready to respond to Obama's command to "get the transcript" . .

I submit the following: We have overused the term "Terrorist" it has now/can now be used in the most general of terms, and can be used in such a way to "bend" (Acts of Terror) I propose that we call these People "Religious serial Killers" The term "Terrorist" was first termed as a way to describe Radical Islamist who would use "fear" to gain their objective and early on (when the word was first used) it SELDOM RESULTED IN DEATH. Once upon a time a "Terrorist group" (pre 9-11-01) would high-jack an Airplane and hold it hostage and once their demands were met they would then FREE THE HOSTAGES!! That former plan is no longer deployed and ALL Religious serial Killers events result in death. I submit that this new term be used/coined to separate all other forms of Violence, killing and Murder so as to avoid misunderstanding, misuse, or misleading remarks... " No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character, or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for." That statement Mr. Obama has been in use for 236 years WELL BEFORE the term Terrorist ever came into being.
