The victims deserve better.

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, dropped a bombshell on the Obama administration, saying that Obama had been informed within 24 hours time that the attack in Libya was a terrorist strike.

Senator Lindsey Graham has explained that Obama was told the truth about the attacks within 24 hours.

WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - On Sept. 11, 2012, the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya was attacked under the cover of a protest. Terrorists brought heavy weapons and homemade bombs to the attack which led to the deaths of four Americans including the US Ambassador to Libya.
Graham pointed out that Obama's insistence up to five days later that the attacks were spontaneous protest suggested that "they are misleading or incredibly incompetent."

Or possibly, Obama simply chose to lie to the American people.

In any case, it should be clear what was happening and to continue to brand the attacks as anything less is a disservice to the staff of the foreign mission there and dishonorable for the dead. It is also disrespectful to the American people.

"Well, the facts are there was never a riot" Graham said. Instead, Al Qaeda-associated militia spent hours, executing planned attacks on the embassy. There was never a protest as was commonly claimed by the administration.

Then, in the wake of the attack, Obama and his administration continued to say the attacks were merely the result of a demonstration gone bad, inspired by a video, which had already been hosted on YouTube for months prior.

Graham said the intelligence community in Libya informed him and the administration within 24 hours that the attacks were staged by known terrorists.

Grahman added, "The intelligence community on the ground in Libya has told Senators Corker and myself that within 24 hours, they communicated up to Washington that this was a terrorist attack. The president of Libya on the same date said it was a terrorist attack. The video of the compound shows that there was nobody at the Benghazi consulate. There was never a group to riot. And the evidence is overwhelming, and the idea that it was spawned by a video and a riot would hold the administration blameless. They said it was a copycat of Cairo. It wasn`t a copycat, it was a sustained attack that lasted for six or eight hours using heavy weapons, which undercut the idea that al Qaeda has been dismantled and on the run. And it certainly undercuts the idea that our policy choices in Libya have not going after the militia, not helping the Libyans train a national army were good choices."

Subsequent to this, the President went on several TV shows to say the attacks were inspired by a video.

In reality, they were commemorative attacks launched by Al Qaeda on 9/11.

So the question remains, why did Obama deliberately lie to the American people? Was there some pressing issue of national security that required this? Or was he afraid that the truth would hurt his chances for reelection?

The American people, especially the families of those murdered by the terrorists deserve better. At a minimum, they deserve the truth. And better, they deserve a commander-in-chief who will respect their sacrifice.

This is one of Obamas and his administrations biggest "coverups" to date! And yet few want to recognize it and talk about it! I don't get it!

I invite everyone to take out their dictionary and look up the definitions of "terror" and "terrorism". It will soon become self evident that terror and terrorism exists inside each and every country, often promoted by our own politicians. It will also soon become self evident that it exists "out there" as well. It ought to also become self evident that politicians often try focussing their people on a common enemy since it unifies people on perceived threats "out there" to then give them enormous power and control "inside here" (their own borders).
1. Terrorize.
2. Infantilize.
3. Control.

These tactics are used INSIDE and OUTSIDE political boundaries, since all of us on planet earth are inside and outside political boundaries. Who are the good guys and bad guys? Why were 2 different atomic bombs, in chemical composition, dropped on Japan in WW2? Was Hitler not democratically elected? What about the Spanish and French and British kings and monarchies? Thugs! And the north and south battles right inside the States? How about the selling of slaves right outside the Cathedral in New Orleans? Or again, the tribal mentalities present in partisan politics, sports stadiums, sports, east coast/west coast, this product versus that product?

I am embarrassed to be human....the most STUPID species collectively speaking on this planet!

I felt perfectly safe having bibimba inside a Korean restaurant not far from the "axis of evil". Axis of evil? There are hundreds of them, some right inside your own borders and inside the White House! You should FIRE your speech writers, you politicians.

Is the dentist's chair occupied or filled when the patients have no cavities? If so, not for very long.

Not everyone wants world peace, since many people make their livings and directly or indirectly justify their jobs when chaos spreads. If everyone was a rose: the politicians, lawyers, judges, security guards in prisons, police officers, armies of the world, those making war tools and machines (and their investors), many bankers, certain speculators, would be what? OUT OF WORK.

Push politicians more and DRILL deeper for truth. Yes, terrorism exists: both INSIDE and OUTSIDE of your own borders. And the stupid politicians, FBI, CIA: they too need something to do and report to justify their salaries! If world peace existed, what would they do for a living? Water the plants and trim the trees around their buildings!

Once again, DEFINE the term terrorism. Also, google it up and read through the definitions given by many academics on wikipedia.

Who were the good guys and bad guys? The cowboys OR the Indians? GROW UP, you political baffoons or the mob risks lining all of you people up (regardless of partisan politics)and throwing you to the wolves as you do with your own citizens so that you then have something to crow about in your political speeches!

I am doing you politicians a FAVOR by being blunt with you....YOUR partisan political salt and pepper ZEBRA ACT is getting old! (I can't use the term donkey to describe you, since donkeys are wise...notice Jesus himself chose to ride on a donkey) You public purse sifting parasitic platitudinal ideological GOONS risk throwing the world into chaos with all your SOPHISTRY and fertilizer liquid coming out of your mouths! All of you: GROW UP! You manipulative MONSTERS. Obama lies, and so do practically all of you either by commission, omission, ignorance, or unawareness: which explains why you are politicians! The honest and truthful ones aren't even in that business to begin with, in most cases, therefore we must learn to function on the premise that the great majority of politicians are lying and manipulative.

Now, to calm myself down, I will once again visualize the coffin, the urn, and see the various perspectives offered from 6 feet under or from on top of the fireplace mantle. The fellow cutting the lawn 6 feet above is disrupting my sleep! And just when I was analyzing the root structures of dandelions, the gardener seemed to have pulled it out of the ground. Remember, we all end up with the buckets of raisin bran DROPPED right on top of the rectangular box 6 feet under. (some exceptions such as New Orleans apply; and while a great city for jazz and music, it was (perhaps still is) allegedly one of the most CORRUPT cities in North America in the political sense)

FOCUS INSIDE your own backyard on all YOUR OWN terrorists right inside the halls of power! YOU are RUINING your own country, you politicians, judges, and lawyers. Isn't there an ambulance to go and chase down, you lawyers? You ought to spend more time ripping into Roe versus Wade instead of bolting out of the coffee shops and jamming your cars into high gear racing to likely cause another accident as you fight amongst yourselves like hungry wolves after SHEEP each time an ambulance drives by. My goodness, some of you likely spring out of bed and slap on your suit and tie when you hear ambulance sirens in the middle of the night! Use your intelligence to BACK UP the Catholic leaders instead of WASTING your energies on ILLUSIONS!

This is the soft version. If you wish for a little more heat, I can deliver that to you in a 5 star style on a silver platter as I POUR MORE VINEGAR down your SOPHISTIC VOCAL CHORDS. Next time, it ought to be fuel and then instead of a toothpick let it be a match!

2 ears, one mouth.

Politicians? 1 ear, with noise coming out of every other single pore of their bodies. Please visit an organographer to verify the truth of these statements.

Let us watch these orthocephalics on the political stages far and wide, near and in our own backyards as well. The NIMBY type of mentality needs to change too.

SOPHISTRY SYMPOSIUMS on how to keep the SHEEP planted knee deep in mud with hooves inside gopher holes....while the political wolves have the citizenry in their crosshairs. And leave your guns at HOME when you attend political rallies. The days of the cowboys and Indians are FINISHED. Get over it! The cars have replaced the horses. The freeways have replaced the trails. The guns? They remain because people are what? NUTS!

Let us see what the upcoming salt and pepper zebra act at the national zoo exhibition has in store for we tax paying saps who pay for their nuts and bananas. Does everyone have their popcorn, salt and pepper, butter, and intestine inflating colored carbonated sugared water sitting beside their armchairs? The SOPHISTRY SYMPOSIUM SHOW is about to have yet another curtain rise on the stage of LIES. Be ready to take the GONG SHOW approach with these sophists! And the more they lie, the harder you ought to be hitting the bells so that they wake up the following day thinking there are bells inside their heads ringing so loud that they themselves begin to wonder if their family names haven't changed to Mr. and Mrs. Glockenspiel. Keep these political sophistic savages in line...every single one of them, NO EXCEPTIONS.

How was the King of Spain's elephant hunting trip in Africa, recently, as Spain currently sits with over 20% unemployment?

I wonder what Henry VIII of England, or rather his wife who was beheaded, would think of these elephant hunting trips?

And then, in Canada, they have baffoons singing God save the Queen...now, I think I will go and vomit! Perhaps I should ask a buffalo what it felt like to be run off cliffs by who? British descendants, in some cases! And before the French start crowing, there were reasons as to why Marie Antoinette saw the light of day as well. People do not enjoy being told to eat cake when they are STARVING!

Let us see what NONSENSE they try feeding us next, to justify their existences.

How many of my friends on this site are fasting, praying, going to daily Mass and Communion, and sitting before the Blessed Sacrament as often as they can for the deliverance of our country? This Friday coming has been designated as a National Day of Prayer and Fasting by EVANGELICALS no less. This month is the anniversary of the win at Gettysburg. We were losing every battle in the Civil War. Lincoln called for a National Day of Prayer and Fasting. Afterward, we started winning the battles, and finally, winning the War. Praise God. We need to realize the great jeopardy our nation faces. God can stay His Hand and He will ,if His children repent and return to Him. We need a God fearing man in the WH. (Don't give me any guff about Romney being a Mormon.) He is more Catholic than most Catholics regarding his devotion to God and devoutness to his faith. He was not my first choice but he is our only choice. We must elect Romney. OBAMA MUST NOT WIN THIS ELECTION!!! I purchased little red booklets from David Horowitz's Freedom Center entitled "BARACK OBAMA'S RULES FOR REVOLUTION " They are only a dollar if you purchase them in bulk. I have been passing these booklets out to all the Obama supporters that I know. I have even been putting them on the windshields of parked cars. Whether they will make a difference remains to be seen but 3 people that voted for Obama last time have changed their minds. People have got to be informed who this man in the WH really is. Please my friends, join me in this battle. If we go down, at least it won't be because we sat on our "you know what." God bless.

Come on friends. Who, 5 minutes after you heard this on the news, didn't know this was a terrorist attack? Who actually thought it was due to a stupid film? If anyone thought this was really due to a film, you DO NOT know what is going on with this administration. They need to call Secretary of State Clinton, Susan Rice, Obama and Biden (and I'm sure a lot more) on the carpet for this Ambassador Stevens went through tortuous, evil acts against his person. No one, NO ONE, deserves to die like that. There is so much blood on the hands of this administration, it is downright evil. Please, please, please get Obama out of Washington. He has desecrated the Office he holds. American people are good, but the Father of Lies has divided this nation so much that I don't know if it can be saved. Only God can save us now. BUT, we have to do our part. Let God work through us and get this nation back to Him. God bless.

Stop... POTUS and team decided that this attack would hurt the polls a bit and obviously injured his motto (osama dead etc..)... but once Romney beat them to the narrative they chose to attack him through friends in the press thinking they ...had an opportunity to put him out... (they got greedy) they nearly succeeded but someone decided that we can use a precanned excuse of the Youtube video for any protest and apply it here.... OOPS..... this POTUS is only as strong as his weakest YouTubelink... ...... Romney took the barrage of attacks and let them lie to the point where a video...the real video of the attack shows they lied covered it up but then used the dead to spread their lies... the "bumps in the road are "4 Caskets" and the bus is the TRUTH...

That this happened after just a year since Quaddafi was overthrown shoild be put in context.

The American people are more intelligent than you want us to believe.

you all watched what happened last year. There were more than 200 groups, all fighting to remove Quaddafi. There is bound to be lawness when there is a vacuum.

Remember and note that unlike what you want us to believe, the Libyan people are grateful for the support that America offered.
