Quoted from Shadow
Box there would have been nothing said if the WH just came out and admitted it was a terrorist attack the story would have ended right there. It still doesn't explain why Hillary didn't sent in additional security when the Embassy requested it.


There was nothing to send... just as has been reported over and over in the many investigations.
But you need a scandal, so you ignore the facts!  


The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

     FALSE: Administration officials watched the attacks unfold in real time but did nothing to intervene.

     FALSE: Requests issued by U.S. personnel for military back-up during the attacks were denied.

     FALSE: General Carter Ham was relieved of his command for attempting to provide military assistance
during the Benghazi attacks.

     FALSE: Rear Admiral Charles M. Gaouette was relieved of his command for attempting to provide
military assistance during the Benghazi attacks.

The Ambassador had requested more security a few times months before the attack and Hillary didn't approve the added security and has given no reason why.

No Shadow... you go around and around but never land...
This is your third erroneous post on this topic in a row.  When I show that you are in error,
you ignore it and continue with the next hoax post.

By the time I finish proving you're wrong for the 10th time in a row, you start at the
beginning with the same lame BS Benghazi posts all over again.

The facts:

On Wednesday, the State Department's former point man on security in Libya told the House Oversight Committee that he asked for additional security help for the Benghazi facility months before the attack, but was denied.

Various communications dating back a year asked for three to five diplomatic security agents, according to testimony at Wednesday's hearing. But Eric Nordstrom, the one-time regional security officer, said he verbally asked for 12 agents.

The request for 12 agents was rebuffed by the regional director of the State Department's Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs, Nordstrom testified.

"For me and my staff, it was abundantly clear that we were not going to get resources until the aftermath of an incident," Nordstrom said.   http://www.cnn.com/2012/10/12/politics/fact-check-benghazi-security/index.html

Shadow,
Try reading something other than pre packaged Right Wing Scandal Reports.
I know this will not deter your Benghazi scandal Mania, but the facts are the facts:

Benghazi U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens turned
down offers of more security
— twice


Quoted Text
Christopher Stevens, the U.S. Ambassador to Libya, who was
killed along with three other Americans after terrorists stormed the mission, twice
turned down offers from senior military officials for additional security at the facility.

(YES SHADOW, HE TURNED DOWN ADDED SECURITY TWICE!!!
The exact opposite of what you posted!)


Quoted Text
In August, officials at the mission had drafted cables to
Washington requesting “security upgrades, and staffing,” according to the
report.
Shortly after the cable was sent, Stevens spoke by phone with Army Gen.
Carter Ham, the then-chief of the U.S. Africa Command, who offered assistance,
but Stevens refused the offer.
Stevens again turned down the offer from Ham when the two met for a previously
scheduled meeting in Germany a few weeks later.
In the months since the assault, many have criticized the White House and the
State Department for not providing sufficient security at the mission.


If you ever do find an actual "Benghazi Scandal", please let me know.

You can believe what you want Box Ambassador Stevens isn't around to dispute your liberal claims, dead men tell no tales.

The person "telling the tale" isn't dead.  His name is  Army Gen. Carter Ham, and he's very much
alive.  He was the chief of the U.S. Africa Command when the Benghazi attack occured.

So...again... if you find a Benghazi Scandal, be sure to let me know.

Hear say evidence Box, and I don't believe much of anything that comes out of this administrations mouth including Ham's. Too much corruption in this administration to be trusted.

Gen. Carter Ham isn't in the Obama Administration Shadow.  He's a General in the ARMY!

Amazing how Shadow believes "hear say" evidence when it favors his agenda, from Eric
Nordstrom...
But totally blows away "hear say" evidence when it opposes his view, from General Ham.

Selective outrage as usual.  I've never seen anyone buy the GOP line so totally with
out any facts.

Box you really are slow, Nordstrom personally asked for more security and was denied, no third party saying that he did. . But Eric Nordstrom, the one-time regional security officer, said he verbally asked for 12 agents. If nothing else you are a good comrade Box and will be rewarded with a good job in the new USSA.

How do you know he asked???
You reject "HEAR SAY" evidence.  Yet you just quoted Nordstrom's.

You can't have it both ways Shadow!
