I still cant get my head around Liberal logic. I really cant. Maybe it's a mental illness they have?
I have read and listened to all of this Benghazi stuff now that has come out and I am seriously scratching my head. First it's an internet video cause it (when Jeff Dunham has been making much worse ones for years with Achmed the Dead Terrorist), then Hillary emails her daughter it was Al-Qaeda then the whole stand down order....
WTF is that? WTF were they thinking. They had assets in the area, they had FAST teams and Delta operators in the planes ready to go and they were debating crap like how their uniforms might offend the Libyans?!?!?! First of all from the people I have talked to operators from Delta wear a plain uniform with not distinctive markings, basically just a plan BDU with no patches, flags etc. or black tactical gear with no markings. Plus they do not follow the militaries grooming and dress standards so they can blend in to local areas and also they barely ever wear a uniform on base. The FAST teams are in BDU's with their names, rank and American flag and maybe a Ranger tab on their arms. The Delta Unit was created during the Iranian Hostage Crisis to retake the Embassy and for counter terrorism operations. Hell, their Unit is more secretive then the SEALS. The FAST teams are elite US Marine Special Forces teams whole purpose is to recapture an Embassy or US facility on foreign soil or a Nuclear Navy Ship.
How in the f**k is a blank uniform offensive, and frankly who cares! We were under attack on US soil.
Also according to the former Supervisory Agent over the President's protection detail Daniel Bongino who has protected two Presidents, the Pope during his visit, numerous dignitaries and been assigned to Embassies before the President's visit on the advance team said they always have an emergency plans for situations like this and their backup plans have backup plans.
So why did it happen? We know the answer. Why was nothing done? We also know the answer but what we don't know the answer to is why haven't people been held accountable? I was excited when Trey Gowdy was announced to head the commission, I figured he would get things done and hold people accountable. What the hell is the hold up? How can the Butcher of Benghazi be running for President? She was Secretary of State, she was in the War room with Obama and the Embassies fall under her jurisdiction.
As Larry the Cable Guy says, "Get 'Er Done!"
its like asking why 9/11 happened,, that had warnings as well and I believe those with the responsibility(including highly praised condoleeza) made the choices they thought best at the time
its not about liberal or conservative,, just being human
You just gave me a perfect example. When we were being hit we responded as it was happening. Troops were ordered to report, we had fighters jets in the air, given the command by Vice President Cheney without thought or hesitation to take down any airplane in our skies. We live in Nevada and I still remember seeing them that morning and throughout the day in the are flying out of NAS Fallon and the Nevada Air Guard Base.
Now look at Benghazi, we had the planes on the runway with the FAST Teams and Delta Operators ready to go. They could have taken the compound. Would the Ambassador and the others still be alive? Probably, I don't know but at least we would have tried and we would have stood up to them and we would have kicked their A$$! We have a President, Vice President and at the time Secretary of State that couldn't give the order to respond because of F**KING UNIFORMS! We had military assets and contractors in that area, six of them who disobeyed orders and went in and tried to help.
The first example is leadership.
The second decision is Oh $hit! I better call my campaign manager, my spin doctors and see how we can spin this before we respond with military force. Maybe we should give them a stern warning on TV.......
The results: 4 Americans, including an Ambassador killed.
we likewise sent military there within half hour at Benghazi
like I said,, making the best choice with the information and resources in the moment
