    I have been following the latest in the string of unending tragedies, namely the Benghazi attack and the slaughter of four Americans, Government Officials. I have tracked this from the first reporting of it. The man, Barrak Obama, stated, the day following the murders, that it was a spontaneous demonstration, spawning a spontaneous attack.

    Today, my question has been answered, “Why was there not a Predator orbiting and streaming live feed?” Today it has been discovered that a Predator was on site, was streaming Live Feed back to the US and the Supreme Commander, Barry, had access to that feed. The fact that he has played Political Football with this and has repeatedly and is still lying about this is, to be kind, without merit!

    It has also been confirmed now that there were requests from the Ambassador for a Safe Level of security in Libya but instead, security was reduced. In addition to the major, personal, security team being withdrawn, in the, direct, face of the murder of the British Ambassador. If we then add in the reported fact that the Boots, Marines or Army, that would have prevented the murder of these four Americans were about an hour from the event and the event was a, known, seven hour attack, this observer can only conclude that something smells in the White House.

    I have sought to avoid a knee-jerk reaction post and have waited to post this until there was reasonable evidence. I pray that you will Prayerfully Vote and vote to honor God.

    Your post is very well thought out. It stands in stark contrast to the two or three posters who acted like moral giants at the start, but as time went on, it became very apparant that their motiviation was one of two reasons. It was either, one, they had a radical Obama agenda, or two, all they cared about was being a troll to stir unnecessary division.

    One could actually respect the individuals if their motives were pure, but they are not. These are individuals that probably never did on thing beyond posting on the internet or flapping their jaws to do anything positive for the political process or this nation. In the name of righteousness, they shout "do not vote for anyone, no one is worthy." These are the same ones who probably never took the time to vote, never got out and tried to elect decent candidates, and never formed any sense of serving others. My guess is they never did anything towards securing the freedom and liberty we all enjoy in the form of posting our opinions here and voting. No doubt they never served in the armed forces one day.

    This is a picture of the person that never gives. They hide behind the curtain of high moral standards, but promote the agenda of the most immoral person to ever hold office. They criticize others for their vote and their commitment to a Holy God, yet it is funny they are always looking up when they do so.

    I wish my motives were as pure as you make them sound but as we both are aware, I'm one more sinner saved by nothing but God's grace and like the rest of us, if Satan can get my attention, I'm prone to stray. But tonight the last debate will happen and I pray that Mr. Romney charges the people with the same Election Day Charge that Ronnie Reagan issued in his last debate, "As you stand in the voter's booth, ask yourself, "Are you better off today than you were four years ago?"" But I do want Democrat, Republican and, like myself, Independent to vote and let's have the majority speak!

    Bill, last night I watched the 2-hour special on H2 "Targeting Bin Laden." Obama gave an interview to the makers of this presentation and the different forms of intelligence used including CIA and drones, etc. as to how they tracked OBL were exposed, apparently now "unclassified" for all the world to see. Apparently, it was felt by the WH to make this information public, which I feel should have been held classified. There were also interviews with other high profile officials for this documentary.

    From the description of the DVD now available.

    And it was, insiders, including obama spilled the beans. I feel this "outing" of our intelligence gathering on this case is akin to treason - I believe this need to "tell all" just puts lives in danger for operations we may have going on and it was a political stunt (this, and leaking information from the WH to the NY Times) to garner votes for obama. I believe this is wrong, the information exposed on this program was not only broadcast to the US, but all over the world, giving the general public AND our enemies, information they should not have.

    I am in awe of the bravery of our SEALS and Special Ops. I am glad obama gave the order to get the "target" but I am very upset that so much information about the methods and intel gathering being made public - and I have no doubt, it was for political gain. No other president or administration in my lifetime has gone to such lengths to not only "leak" information, but to go on camera and interview. I understand the Hollywood version has been made but the release was cancelled until after the election.

    I said all of the above to say this: Obviously more should have and could have been done about the Ambassador and 3 others who were murdered in Benghazi. This situation, again, was done for obama's political gain - to put on a facade that all is well with his foreign policy, that al Qaeda is decimated because OBL is dead - which we ALL are finding out now, is totally false. Ambassador Stevens and the other 3 were sacrificial lambs for a political agenda, in my estimation. It is tragic and shameful. The coverup makes me angry.

    The father of my three grandsons was discharged, Honorably, because of an injury that there was no Purple Heart for. He was a Black Ops Airborne Ranger and what has been done with our Black Ops men today is, under any other circumstances, punishable by death. This son of mine is much like myself and was willing to die for this nation and that is the quality of all our Black Ops men today and to use them for Canon foder is, just, not acceptable. If my son were to receive medals, the ones he deserves to wear, mine would look puny but he was never there... officially and yet, today, he would still die to defend his wife, his children and his country. We need to protect these men.

    My vote has been cast, so I should shut up, right? No! The Libyan murders of four Americans is horrible but most of my fellow citizens have missed the many points contained in this incident. I never liked it when those kids I fought with were killed but these men were not crazy helicopter crewmen dedicated to flying into the middle of firefights to do insane things. The most dangerous of these men were the three dedicated to keep the Ambassador from Harm's way and except you attempted to harm their charge, they were big puddy tats. Armed but harmless.

    Let's consider, what I believe is, the biggest point to consider in the light of the election that is under way, today. Mr. Obama has repeatedly said that as the facts were known to him, he reported them to the people he governs. Today we know that the event was streamed live from an, on site Predator, much like the video of the Osama killing, right into the Situation Room that Hilary and Barry were filmed in watching the Seals take are of business in Pakistan.

    I'm not suggesting that Barry was in the room, watching, we all know he was to busy in Hollywood for that. And I've never been on Air Force One but from the Media coverage I do know that there is an Emergency Phone on board and in this day, surely he carries a Cell Phone? When I was in the Military, nothing happened to the men under me that I was not notified, immediately, and I was not, nearly, the Supreme Commander, I was an E5, but I was alerted. Question; How much more the man in charge of every life in the citizen rollsof America?

    The President, legal or not, has, consistently, lied to the people of the United States! So, are you better off than you were four years ago?
