Hero Navy Seal thought Romney was pathetic

Quote from AK Forty Seven:

When was the last time US intrest in Lybia was attacked ?

Iraq is still a war zone and The US is under constant attack there,they need those 12 troops and many more.The House should have given The State Dept the money they asked for .Tax cuts for the rich is more important to republicans then having the proper security to protect our embasseys

The embssey had more then 2,they also had private Lyabian security guards outside .

Read this report from CBS, hardly a conservative media outlet. The administration had evidence of numerous events leading up to this final attack. They don't give a 30% haz duty pay increase cause they think things are going smooth.
Spin all you like, the Obama administration failed to read the tea leaves. Tea leaves anyone with even the smallest level of concern or common sense would have been able to discern. At the end of the day we must conclude the truth of the situation on the ground just didn't fit their version of the war on terrorism, how well they claimed it was going, so they stuck their heads in the sand and "hoped". The result was brave men died. Obama is really good at that hope thing, and not much else.

Nordstrom, who served in his post as regional security officer from September 2011 through July 2012, said the 230 incidents outlined in the memo "paint a clear picture that the environment in Libya was fragile at best and could degrade quickly. Certainly, not an environment Where post Should be directed to 'normalize' operations and reduce security resources in accordance with an artificial time table." In Benghazi, violent episodes appeared to be on the rise starting in June 2012 and included an explosion at the consulate June 6th, and an attack on the British Ambassador's convoy on June 11.
