Yet Another Obama Lie!

Perhaps this is why the Obama administration thought is was all about video!

Why is Obama skipping more than half of his daily intelligence meetings?

The Government Accountability Institute, examined President Obama’s schedule from the day he took office until mid-June 2012, to see how often he attended his Presidential Daily Brief (PDB) — the meeting at which he is briefed on the most critical intelligence threats to the country. During his first 1,225 days in office, Obama attended his PDB just 536 times — or 43.8 percent of the time. During 2011 and the first half of 2012, his attendance became even less frequent — falling to just over 38 percent. By contrast, Obama’s predecessor, George W. Bush almost never missed his daily intelligence meeting.

Actually the lie is yours. The attack on Benghazi and Cairo were coordinated terrorist attacks that used Al Qaeda tactics. Whether they're a branch of Al Qaeda or not is still being speculated. But the attacks were in retaliation for the killing of Al Libbi (sp?). They planned from the get-go to stage this assault on 9/11. The rest of the protests were in response to the video. The timing was purely coincidental and by design. The man who released the video wanted to whip up anti-Muslim sentiment around the time of the 9/11 remembrance. He was fucking stupid for posting the video as were the people for protesting. Stupid piled on top of stupid.

First of all Government Accountability Institute? Really? A PRIVATE conservative research organization. Lot of credibility there.

Second, O'Bama gets briefings every day. He reads them and discusses them with his staff. He attends the meetings when needed.

Third. The reason Bush attended so many has more to do with his lack of comprehension than attention to detail.

But but, the president of Libya’s National Congress says otherwise!


The attack that killed Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans took place on the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. That may simply be a coincidence, but if so, it would be a pretty big one.

In his interview, Mohamed Yusuf al-Magariaf, the president of Libya’s National Congress, said Libya had arrested 50 people, many connected to al-Qaeda. That would certainly bolster the notion that the date — Sept. 11 — was not a coincidence. He also said a few of those arrested were from other countries.

It is in Magariaf’s interest to emphasize that this tragedy does not reflect anti-American feelings by the Libyan people, especially because Stevens was a well-liked diplomat in the country. But he was also emphatic that “the way these perpetrators acted and moved” and the “specific date for this so-called demonstration” make it clear that the attack was planned.

“It was planned by foreigners, by people who entered the country a few months ago, and they were planning this criminal act since their arrival,” he said.
