Intercepted Phone Call That The Administration Relied Upon To Claim A "Protest" At Benghazi ALSO CONTAINED ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FROM AL QAEDA THAT THEY WOULD PROCEED WITH THE PLANNED ATTACK
The intelligence that helped inform those talking points—and what the U.S. public would ultimately be told—came in part from an intercept of a phone call between one of the alleged attackers and a middle manager from al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), the group’s north African affiliate, according to U.S. officials familiar with the intercept. In the call, the alleged attacker said the locals went forward with the attack only after watching the riots that same day at the U.S. embassy in Cairo. However, the intercept was one of several monitored communications during and after the attacks between members of a local militia called Ansar al-Sharia and AQIM, which, taken together, suggest the assault was in fact a premeditated terrorist attack, according to U.S. intelligence and counter-terrorism officials not authorized to talk to the press. In one of the calls, for example, members of Ansar al-Sharia bragged about their successful attack against the American consulate and the U.S. ambassador. It’s unclear why the talking points said the attacks were spontaneous and why they didn’t mention the possibility of al Qaeda involvement, given the content of the intercepts and the organizations the speakers were affiliated with. One U.S. intelligence officer said the widely distributed assessment was an example of “cherry picking,” or choosing one piece of intelligence and ignoring other pieces, to support a preferred thesis.Further, as you just read, the "protest" in question wasn't in Beghazi-- they were referring to the protests in Cairo giving them a sort of jihadist momentum for the attack. I'm sorry if you knew this already. I'm also unhappy with myself for not knowing it, for not reading every one of Lake's scoops carefully, and just checking the headlines. I only now understand what they specifically meant by "cherry-picking intelligence" -- I had no idea it was this clearly damning for Obama. Quite literally, seizing on the word "protest" (in Cairo, as the message meant it) and utterly ignoring the pre-planned Al Qaeda attack part of it. But as I've been remiss, I'll make up for it now, and promote the information as well as I can. Remember: When Biden claims that the Administration reported the intelligence as they understood it, they are claiming that this message is cover enough to claim "protest/YouTube video" -- but not, apparently, enough to tell the public Al Qaeda itself had announced it was going forward with the attack in the same message. Update/Semi-Correction: Gabe points out the Talking Points, prepared by the CIA, did mention a "spontaneous demonstration" in Benghazi. Although the actual intercepted call mentioned demonstrations in Cairo, and no one ever saw a "demonstration" in Benghazi. Ever. I think -- can't prove; I think -- these Talking Points were prepared in negotiation with the White House, to get the best spin they could, and the CIA went along with this part of it. Because there was never a damn sighting of a protest in Benghazi. What was seen by the staffers were security officers turned terrorist snapping pictures of the compound, casing the joint. The whole "protest" claim seems like a fabrication the CIA thought they could support. They couldn't, and they can't. But Gabe is right, that was in the Talking Points. Funny how "Al Qaeda" didn't quite make the cut. Oh: And open thread. I'm starting the weekend early.

I knew something like this was going to surface (or re-surface, in this case). The Intel community was not going to sit on their hands while President Choom and his administration bad-mouthed them and try to blame them for the administration's failures.

I don't even know what to say. The reasonable analysis of the information which is available at this time seems to lead to the conclusion that the Obama Administration purposefully sent a United States Ambassador and additional United States State Department personnel along with others off to their deaths. Honestly, if this were a civil case, it would be a slam dunk on negligence and would be verging on a clear case of recklessness enough to award punitive damages. I leave an analysis of whether this reaches the level of criminal negligence to those who are more familiar with those standards.
Did anyone ask those men if they were willing to die for Obama? Because godking though he may think himself, he really can't just sacrifice people for his own benefit.

We already know they were lying about it. The State Department has already ratted them out while under oath.
In fact, EVERY news organization I read this morning either directly called Biden (and by default Obama) a liar or implicitly called him a liar by saying the testimony contradicted him.

So, in other words, it isn't as if they were suckered into believing that it was a result of the bogus video, it was that they saw that Al Qaida intended to use the video as an excuse and the administration decided to play into the Al Qaida excuse as a way to disguise their incompetence. And they even fucked this up.

obama and this admin has declared that we are not at war with islam and that the war on terror, if it ever existed, is over and any evidence to the contrary is just swept under the rug. That's were this admin starts and finishes how it looks at the world. The fact that islam and the terrorists are still at war with us is just a no never mind. G-D help us all if these fucks ever get re-elected

I tried to send an email to Fox to see if I could get an answer to why nobody is mentioning that Biden implied that he had voted against the Iraq and Afghanistan wars when the opposite is true.
The administration has been jumping up and down since the last debate about how Romney "lied" IN THE DEBATE. Biden clearly blatantly lied to make a point that was made itself dishonest by his lie.
He should be held accountable, imo.

Bottom line - THE DNC convention was a huge "We killed Osama"

The world listened - including Al Qaeda
"Hey Obama -we are all Osama's" where did that go? Media made that
disappear.
No one in the ME watched that insignificant obscure “video". The
Benghazi terrorist attack was pre-planned for 9/11 and Hillary's state dept
(Hillary) was too busy dancing with re-set buttons to give the Libya Embassy
what they wanted. More. Security.

There's a deeper issue here, that talking about our communication intercept capabilities lets the bad guys know that they need to change how they communicate. This will degrade our ability to gather intelligence in the future and will get people killed. I cringe every time I read a news report that mentions information from intercepted communications. That kind of thing used to be among our deepest, darkest secrets. Now, not so much.

I never saw anyone note that that the very intercept the Administration says justifies their claim that it was "due to a protest" actually implicates Al Qaeda
Since Obama declared himself the smartest guy in the room there's no reason to think a) anyone in the White House is brave enough to tell him otherwise and b) that he would believe them.

You're giving them too much credit, ace. The video is intrinsic to their narrative because it gives them a crisis to use to attack the first amendment.
They needed the video. They may have even directed their bundler to make the video. How else would they have known about this one stupid obscure video?
Btw, Biden referenced the video again last night.

Scapegoating the First Amendment and going along with their Muslim Brotherhood masters who have been attacking our First Amendment for decades (defamation of religions, hate speech, denigration of religion, UN resolutions) and you have a perfect storm of progressive Democrat-al Qaeda-Muslim Brotherhood crap.

There tactics still work, but not as well as before.
The MSM spreads information, true and false, chiefly by radiation and convection. The internet spreads information in those ways too, but it also makes better and more use of diffusion. Diffusion is slower, but it goes everywhere and is relentless.

Game over, man. Game over.
LOS ANGELES — The adult entertainment industry overwhelmingly favors
re-electing Barack Obama to a second term as president, according to the
results of a new industry poll conducted by media organization XBIZ.
In spite of being in an era of declining industry revenues due to the
glut of free content available online and rampant piracy, the majority
of adult insiders side with the Democratic incumbent Obama over the
Republican candidate Mitt Romney as the 2012 presidential election on
Nov. 6 inches closer. The results are based on responses from members
ofXBIZ.net, the adult entertainment industry’s top social network.
XBIZ asked industry members: “Which candidate would you like elected U.S. president?”
Of the 339 respondents, 68% say Obama, while only 13% favor Romney.
Another 14% would like to see “someone else” in the White House, while
5% responded “I don’t care.”
The results of the poll did not come as a shock to at least two prominent industry kingpins.
Hustler founder Larry Flynt in September took out full-page ads in
the Washington Post and USA Today offering $1 million in cash for proof
of Romney’s tax returns and/or details of his offshore assets, bank
accounts and business partnerships. Romney in late September did release
his 2011 tax return and a brief summary of his returns from the
previous 20 years. Flynt told XBIZ simply that he was “not surprised” by
Obama’s favorite status in the industry.

Joe was everything OWS believes--that is, whatever advances the cause of their power is true.
He was nasty, he was insulting, he was rude, he was condescending, and on and on.
If he was 50 years younger, he would have been camping out last fall.
And think about how it's possible that that type of behavior will rally the Dems base.
We got this. We have already won.
Now it's time to make the rubble bounce.

Those are the results of a poll of 339 respondents by XBIZ.net, an industry social network. The poll found 68% of people in the San Fernando Valley-based porn industry said they would like Obama to win the election, compared with 13% for Romney.

You're giving them too much credit, ace. The video is intrinsic to their narrative because it gives them a crisis to use to attack the first amendment.
They needed the video. They may have even directed their bundler to make the video. How else would they have known about this one stupid obscure video?
Btw, Biden referenced the video again last night.
Much as F and F was some sort of attempt to roust public opinion against the Second Amendment.
Something is out of place about this whole thing. After seeing the poorly-made video and hearing TFG and Shrillary call it "vile" and so forth, it seems to be an extremely bad excuse, especially since it had been on YT since the middle of summer. Surely there's something far worse on YT that could've been used. I don't get it. For that matter, one of Pat Condell's rants would've been a far better example of muz-bashing: why not use one of those?

Raddatz began by asking about the administration’s handling of Libya and the death of U.S. Amb. Chris Stevens a month ago. Both candidates turned that into a broad discussion of the Obama administration’s handling of issues from the Middle East to Afghanistan. But there was no clear winner there either.

This IS a major intel failure if someone actually heard or read that intercept before the attack and failed to immediately warn Stevens and his staff to get the hell out of Dodge.

Obama's failure to know what was going on, since that very
"intelligence community" works for Obama.
--
I was thinking the same thing last night. Biden kept saying "they" when speaking about the intelligence agency, the embassy, State dept, etc. He's the VP of the country, of all government agencies.
Which reminds me, I really like the way Romney and Ryan have both said they'll work on behalf of all Americans.
If Obama and Biden don't want these responsibilities, we'll happily accommodate them Nov 6.

I think this is a moment where publicizing this and harping on it would change more than just the numbers in the Presidential election. (Which, with a preference cascade are currently skewing in our favor.) I think this is one story which if it was actually reported and repeated would stink as a scandle that would motivate people to vote AGAINST the democratic party across all lines and all candidate paring.
Where is FOX news on this now? Why aren't they headlining this hourly? Where's Breitbart's reporting on this? Why aren't thereConservative venues shouting this from the mountaintops?The leftist media has blown any credibility with their selective reporting for years. We NEED the Conservative media (as small as it is) to be able to get stories like this out and make them effective.
As for the secondarys and the blogs....this warrents Ace to repeat his "Weinergate" performance and focus on getting this out and repeated amongst fellow blogs.....past the media....to the public.
I really think this could be THAT Big. We need it to snowball.

It won't go over well at all IMO. People in WI outside of Madison and Milwaukee are raised on the idea of respect others and you will be respected.
Throughout the recall Scott Walker was respectful and measured when dealing with the lunatics trying to dump him. It was a big reason Walker won here in WI...he was the adult in the room and independents and blue collar Dems rewarded him for it.
Ryan was the adult in the room last night and my fellow Wisconsinites don't take too kindly to insulting behavior from one party when a serious debate on the direction of our country is in order.
If Obama didn't lose it in the first debate already, Biden lost WI last night.

This is the same administration who wants you to feel safe and secure knowing that "even if Iran enriches uranium, they don't have a weapon."
Which of course is fucking retarded, because enriching the uranium is the difficult part.
Give a class of MIT undergrads enough enriched uranium and they could likely have a functional nuke by the end of the month.

Petraeus? You mean the guy who gave us the counter insurgency strategy that has failed in Afghanistan and Iraq while needlessly wasting American lives.
When Petraeus ran the operations they were successful, it's only when Obama started micromanaging that it all went pear-shaped.

Mill the shit up into fine particles and disperse it like dust. 20lb or so of low grade enriched shit dispersed in Westchester when there's a wind out of the north would blanket Manhattan and cause a major crisis.
Poor nations don't have any areas worth denying, rich ones not so much.
Recovery from an efficient dirty dispersal device would be longer and more expensive than a splody nuke.

We built a bomb, from scratch in FOUR YEARS with WWII technology... not even knowing if it could be done....
And Slow Joe thinks we will know, with our STELLAR Intelligence community, which he said just failed us in Libya, will know if they are building Bomb components?

Outrageously, Joe Biden referencing twice as if a benevolent dictator regime SAUDI ARABIA as if in a moral position to judge Syria's Assad as if worse than the House of Saud. That was never refuted by Ryan (who under the circumstances could not diplomatically argue, even if he wanted to which he didn't). However, there is nothing moderate about Wahhabi Islam or the Muslim Brotherhood, the jihadists expanding Wahhabi Saudi monopoly of Arabia. Think twice. The Saudis openly contend towards their own global caliphate. Assad has NEVER been so obtuse as to advance any Syrian expansionism, unlike the Saudis. If "moral outrage" against barbarous regimes is the determining factor in the US government selecting our next interventionist Islamic war, then we'd have intervened years ago in Dafur to save the indigenous Christian population being cruelly displaced into genocide by the Chinese backed Muslim "war lords". Damn, attacking unarmed civilians never makes a man a warrior.
This administration's lack of logic impeded their ability to assimilate the intelligence presented each morning in briefs. The administration's failure to show up for morning intel briefings made it all the worse.
Meanwhile last night, no one admitted/mentioned the intel briefing from the NATO August address in Washington, either, regarding Libya and furthermore the many reasons why Syria is NOT Libya.
No one can go in by air and bomb any point in Syria without killing indiscriminately as the Syrian population is NOT SEGREGATED (as was the segregated population by tribal affiliation regional case in Libya). Rather, in Syria the people are very thoroughly integrated, sharing the same neighborhoods with each other, regardless of ideology. You can't bomb your "opponents" without killing your "friends" throughout Syria. And that fact by itself trumps our depleted resources situation, having spent what was allocated for Iraq and Afghanistan in Libya (obviously not "enough" to prevent the massacre of our Ambassador/personnel in Benghazy), the EU NATO members failing to come with necessary supplies, usurping by "emergency" call of US aircraft including those refueling, and strategic guided missiles no longer where there were supposed to be in Afghanistan and Iraq now. Sponsorship was wrong, as any involvement in Obama's "Arab Spring" has proven to make our US personnel in the Middle East at greater danger, less protected for what was spent.
Now, given that August intel report which NATO itself addressed in Washington (Oct.2012 Air Force Magazine), study the horribly insanely suicidal situation as understood by those US personnel on the ground whether in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya or Egypt. Shock and Awe? No wonder suicides have sky rocketed.
The US government is fighting the same people that the US government is funding and training, while the global corporatist contractors and subcontractors make out as the pirates that they are of US tax funds. Reference Congressman Walter Jones' findings. No matter how long we remain, no matter how much blood and money we spend, when we leave, it will be no better than before we came: all for naught.

“Funding the Enemy:
How U.S. Taxpayers Bankroll the Taliban.” Mr. Wissing states in his
book that for a variety of reasons, much of the taxpayer money the
United States spends in Afghanistan is being diverted and used for
funding the Taliban. Wissing describes his experiences obtained from
being an embedded journalist with five different units of the National
Guard, including the agricultural business development team and the
provincial reconstruction team.
He describes the existing
government of Afghan President Hamid Karzai as “wholly corrupt.” He
offers examples of U.S. government spending projects which wind their
way through a mostly corrupt bidding process by Afghan contractors.He
asserts that money skimmed from bribes and drug trafficking is
indirectly going to support the Taliban’s efforts against America in
Afghanistan.He states that aid dollars from the United States are being
distributed yet there is little effort to follow through and verify the
intended results of that distribution.He concludes that it is time for
the United States to end its military involvement in Afghanistan.

Ace, I'm confused. In the article you reference, it says:
"In the call, the alleged attacker said the locals went forward with the attack only after watching the riots that same day at the U.S. embassy in Cairo."
You say:
"That strand of intelligence was a message from an Al Qaeda group saying they would go ahead with their planned attack, given there were protests erupting in other parts of the world."
Those don't match.
Obviously what the administration has been saying all along was a lie, but this first quote could be "cherry-picked" and spunto say that the attack was motivated by the riots - that it gave them a sort of "green light".

I don't know if this has been pointed out - But I would love to see Ben put together a video of the following quote from the debate, followed up with the middle class buried comment, the put ya'll back in chains comment, the 7-11 comment, and other Biden gaffes.
RYAN: This is a man who gave 30 percent of his income to charity, more than the two of us combined. Mitt Romney's a good man. He cares about 100 percent of Americans in this country. And with respect to that quote, I think the vice president very well knows that sometimes the words don't come out of your mouth the right way.
(LAUGHTER)
BIDEN: But I always say what I mean. And so does Romney.

Thus, the very evidence they claim exonerates them from the charge of deliberately misleading the public in fact damns them
Barky was asleep when this memo came in so he never knew about it. And then he was partying in Vegas so he never got a chance to sit down and read this ... especially as his nights are consumed trying to read 10 personal letters by normal, little people.
Therefore, Barky never saw any of this but only had to take the word of other people ... all of whose fault it was ... whoever they are ... whatever fault there is ... Barky didn't do it ... he was sleeping ... and fundraising ... and reading the thoughts and feelings of the little people ... and empathizing the shit out of them ...

The video, shaky at times from being handheld, and with color imbalance streaking happening inadvertently in the uploading to YouTube, was recorded by a confidential source and shows Cefalu approached by two ATF management representatives including Joseph M. Riehl, Special Agent in Charge of the San Francisco Field Division, which encompasses Northern California and Nevada field offices, the latter being in the news of late because the Reno U.S. Attorney’s Office has refused to prosecute local ATF cases until as yet unidentified issues are resolved, prompting congressional inquiries to find out why.
Riehl, seen talking to Cefalu through his Jeep window and reportedly telling him he couldn’t leave because he had to sign papers, had been criticized on the CUATF forum, and Gun Rights Examiner is attempting to track down audit reports to determine what an independent assessment reveals about the allegations there. But the bottom line is, an employee with over 25 years of service who has been a leading spokesman for whistleblowers was unceremoniously canned in a public parking lot by senior division management.
... this entire Administration is one big cluster-fuck

Bush had good debate prep. The guy playing the part of Gore in the prep at one point just walked over and invaded Bush's space. Bush blurted something about Gore would never do that. Then Bush was told Gore tends to do that. And then during the debate, here comes Gore to try and intimidate Bush. And Bush merely looked at him, shook his head, smiled, and kept on mission ignoring Gore.
But last night, Joe Biden in the game of Political Limbo proved he could go lower than Gore. And that is not something to be proud of.

WASHINGTON (AP) — As Republicans heap criticism on Vice President Joe Biden
for claiming "we weren't told" about requests for extra security at the
U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton
said Friday the precise details of the deadly Sept. 11 attack on the
compound in Libya still remain unclear.
One month after the attack that
killed the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three other Americans, Clinton
said the administration is committed to uncovering the truth about what
happened.

Benghazi is proving reality is far stranger than fiction. That an administration can be so lackadaisical about national security briefings, so focused on fun time, and so risk averse that it allows Benghazi to happen. Editors would reject it as too preposterous.

You know when they told us 'He did not bow to the Saudi King' when there was fucking video of it? I'm getting that same sense of anger.
These scum are willing to lie against all the evidence, even if telling the truth wouldn't be all that bad. Given the MFM cover, they could have just said on Sept. 12 We were attacked and we will get them. And it would have been over. Nope, they wanted to blame an American video instead.

I don't understand all the fuss.
I, personally, knew it was a terrorist attack - within a couple of days. I saw congressmen - from both parties - who had intel briefings say as much, talking about RPGs and indirect fire.
The administration kept with the "spontaneous demonstration" angle anyway. They would have had the same intel. They were obviously lying then, and that hasn't changed.
Why is anybody shocked? Don't they remember Obama lying to everyone's face about how his "You didn't build that" quote was "out of context"? I don't think I've ever seen a sitting President take out an ad solelyto tell everybody a simple, easily disproven, blatant lie before.

Now that Howdy Doody Carney is saying that Obama, Biden nor anybody in the White House knew about those requests for extra security, isn't that a lot like throwing Hillary under the bus?
Of course, I believe Biden. I mean, what were suppose to do? Just walk out on stage during one of Letterman's unfunny musing, interrupt the whole dialogue, and tell Obama?

Seems to be a little inconsistent to say intelligence didn't warn you an attack on your embassy was coming, intelligence told you wrong for several days afterward about the nature of that attack, and then laugh about how intelligence has reassured you that your enemy is a long way from having the capability to nuke you.

You can elect to go baby-steps or full hardcore (no chance in hell) mode. There is something called Iron Man mode where you only get 1 save for the whole game. I did not choose to turn that on.
I'm just starting out, but the game is very familiar and nice. Combat will come to you naturally if you've played the original. My only quibble is that since your avatars are larger, and more detailed than before, the maps seem a little smaller. Base building and research are all there like before, but you only get 1 base as your main base. The other bases are only hangers for launching interceptors. I hear you do not go to Mars in the endgame, only a "mothership".

Obama Doctrine:
"I Know Nothing! I'm On Vacation."
STFU so I can maintain plausible deniability.
WHITE HOUSE UPDATE: Oct. 12 Fri. 10:40 a.m.
"Obama, Biden never made aware of request for more security"
By Josh Rogin, Foreign Policy
Nordstrom: "because of Libyan political sensitivities, armed private security companies were not allowed to operate in Libya." Instead, the Benghazi mission, through a British company, hired unarmed Libyan guards to work inside the compound and a local Libyan militia patrolled the exterior of the compound.
http://tinyurl.com/9j6prhe
---
Again, "Libyan political sensitivities" do not trump US Security.
That Obama's administration chose rely on a British privately hired UNARMED guard of Libyans inside and a Libyan local militia to patrol outside is OBAMA'S bane to bear responsibility for POOR JUDGEMENT and gross dereliction of duty, failing to protect the lives of US citizens.
This Benghazi assassination attack is far worse than the Iranian revolution's kidnapping and eventual release of 52 Americans from our Tehran Embassy after 444 days. The Iranians did not rape and kill their American prisoners while abusing international diplomatic and human rights. And even Jimmy Carter didn't rely on some British business interest to hire unfriendly locals to sabotage our Tehran Embassy in order to protect Iranian political sensitivities.
Obama's Libyan War was shit bad to pirate Libya's wealth, confiscate their ports, oil, underground reserves of fresh water to augment global corporatist agribusiness, and their Central Bank reserves of gold. "We came. We saw. We killed. Bwahahahaha," laughed Sec./State Hillary Clinton. At the time, she'd sent Gaddafi word through diplomatic channels that she'd meet him. And when he showed up at the designated place to sign a treaty, she instead arranged for his rape, torture and mutilation, leaving his dead body as a puppet in the hands of US sponsored al Qaeda assassins. No surprise to cover tracks and for whatever other reason, Ambassador Stevens was also set up, left hanging in the wind. So much for Hillary answering emergency calls; no better or different than Obama. Drunk on the job, a no show, refusing calls, unconsciously inebriated in a black out stupor, everything being all about taking MORE for themselves through the most obscene and illegal means.
God Almighty, given that administrative alternative, who wouldn't vote for a US Potus who doesn't drink alcohol or do illicit drugs?

Movie review of movies I have not seen.
Judge Dredd 3 D - 3D too expensive for people to take a chance on a remake of a crappy movie.Probably good moviethat will fail at box office.
Taken 2 - As with any remake of an action film, the producers think moreexplosions equal better movie , screw the story line.This movie will suck.

Again, "Libyan political sensitivities" do not trump US Security.
Fuck the invasion of Libya. US Taxpayers and US Military provided what "NATO" European members demanded without themselves bringing their necessary combat supplies to the war. And it wasn't as if the "Arab Spring" wasn't planned far in advance by Obama's administration with NATO.
Obama had Libya in his sites for invasion when he abused his Islamic '08 campaign finance bundler's hospitality in the most egregious way. With friends like Barack Obama representing the USA, who needs enemies?

Did Obama Forget to Have a Gaddafi Meeting 'Without Preconditions'?
By Monte Kuligowski
http://tinyurl.com/6gs98l4
Gaddafi was no Saddam Hussein in the stubbornness department. The colonel saw the light rather quickly and became an instant convert in support of democratic nation-building. The Libyan dictator assured Tony Blair and Bush that he wanted to be a partner in making the world a safer place.
In Gaddafi's willingness to have "unconditional" inspections of his facilities and Barack Obama's willingness during the 2008 campaign to sit down with dictators "without preconditions," we see a perfect match.
As crazy as it sounds, Obama's greenhorn idea of meeting with dictators without preconditions might have actually worked in the case of Moammar Gaddafi.
Obama already had connections to Gaddafi via his former pastor, Jeremiah Wright, and Louis Farrakhan. Rev. Wright and Farrakhan had traveled together in 1984 to meet with Gaddafi in Tripoli. And Obama reportedly attended Farrakhan's Million Man March with Wright. Surely, the four men could have sat down together and hammered things out over some Turkish coffee.
Prior to launching a military attack without the authorization (or even knowledge) of Congress, Obama could have negotiated with Gaddafi -- except maybe with a couple of preconditions. We were told that the tripartite wonder of Obama's Muslim background, brilliance, and charm would work wonders in certain foreign policy ambits -- but we've yet to see any benefits accrue.
Mr. Obama might have missed his big diplomatic moment to work the magic his disillusioned fans have been waiting for since the failed Olympics bid.
From Gaddafi's perspective, he and Obama were on brotherly terms. In a recent letter to Obama, Gaddafi called Obama his "son" and expressed his loving affections (for some reason I can't see Moammar calling any other U.S. president his son).

If "intelligence", that is wrong, yet not deliberately wrong, is an error, not deceit. Then "intelligence" claiming WMD's which is wrong, is an error also?
And if the "intelligence", is from sources considered an enemy of the USA. Then its ok to use it as actionable "intelligence" by the current administration?
If "intelligence", is used to commit forces to a preemptive strike on IRAN. Then its ok?
I'm so confused. Enlighten me.

While "feeding the chickens" at home his propaganda that "al Qaeda is on its heels," after usurping Libya's wealth, what Obama "kept" in Libya were his al Qaeda allies to run the show, spending US tax funds to sponsor the particular British "talent agency" that hired the Libyan saboteurs and assassins who fucked Ambassador Stevens before killing him with his American personnel entourage.
Whether it's Obama's US government sponsorship of al Qaeda running Libya or the US round-about sponsorship of the Taliban to control Afghanistan (Karzai just takes the money but does not "govern" Afghanistan), you ask rightly of "our" presence.
It wasn't our military that al Qaeda attacked. It was our Ambassador. And it was after being given the keys of the kingdom by our President who lacked all US constitutional authority in that case, who relied on foreign "partners" in NATO who failed to show up with their fair share of the war effort. pfft Obama even screws himself, despite Clint Eastwood's disclaimer.

Apparently some Republican legislator tried to float a bill in 2011 to change WI winner take all EV scheme to congressional district apportioned.
At the time, the Democrats viciously attacked that proposal as trying to "steal elections".
If WI flips, and all Wisconsin EV's go to Romney, it will be interesting to see how quickly the Democrats propose and embrace the same "stealing elections" scheme they attacked in 2011.
Whenever you try to rig something for a steady state "normal", be it EV's or redistricting/gerrymandering, it ALWAYS comes back to bite you in the ass when the situation changes from normal to no longer normal.
Situation today == "not normal"

Let's juxtapose two pieces of known information:
1. Joe says he and Obama wereNOT AWAREof the deteriorating situation or the repeated requests for more security in Benghazi.
2. Obama did not attend a Security Briefing for (at least) the week before 9/11/12 and made it a regular practice to skip those in-person briefings.
Q: What are the chances that if he HAD attended these security briefings this topic would have been presented or otherwise come up in discussions?
I'll give my credit earned for pointing this out by the way to ACE and this great website...

WMD in the Middle East proudly made in the USA, France, Germany, where ever else from Western Civilization gone global war corporatists, "people-too" that proudly sold WMD to whomever had the money to buy them, regardless of consequences. Oh, but they are us and we are they, or so we're told. Talk about which came first at this point, hard to say, given that the same global war corporatists are absconding with most of our US tax dollars "intended" to export the mob rule of democracy, peace no longer PC.
If at all, nip the WMD at the source, those global war-industrial corporations spawning war for their own profits. Don't ignore Eisenhower's warning as "outdated".
Iraq's non-existent WMD should come to mind given what's come of Bush's first strike Doctrine of Aggression accompanying the story of the Boy who cried "Wolf!"
Biden went on and on last night enunciating Rumsfeld's "lean mean" US Military incapable of fighting more than two simultaneous fronts. That military would go entirely drone in combat, massive profits from massive taxation.
We tax payers already spend 400% more dollars for only 25% of what was originally contracted, each year inflation depleting our military, the craft "life" extension long past expiration dates, new contracts cancelled for new contracts cancelled for new contracts.... Yes, our taxes are being spent on the grounds that we do care about our military personnel on the premise that we are protecting our Constitution, NOT protecting global corporatist profiteering pirates at the expense of US taxpayers and US lives. "It's the economy, stupid."
Our nation's foreign policy needs cleansing, nipping the excesses of Executive "privilege" back to constitutional constraints, as with each of the Three Branches of our Constitutional Republic. "Unalienable rights" are unrecognized by American authoritarians in office. Now THAT is worth a fight for our Constitutional Republic.
Were "morality" the issue to instigate war, we'd never tolerate what China is funding in Dafur, the methodical extermination of all indigenous Christians in Africa.
Meanwhile, without authority, "Because I could" Obama thrusts our Military into Libya and Egypt, blessing al Qaeda rebels and Saudi Wahhabi Muslim Brotherhood with our special ops and tax dollars, spawning the democracy of terrorism.
We can't afford that. Moreover, we don't want that.

>>That strand of intelligence was a message from an Al Qaeda group saying they would go ahead with their planned attack, given there were protests erupting in other parts of the world.
Thus, the very evidence they claim exonerates them from the charge of deliberately misleading the public in fact damns them -- because this single strand of intelligence came from Al Qaeda, announcing it would go ahead with the attack!
But they never told us that part, did they?
And now, caught out lying to the public about this, they claim this intelligence vindicates them -- but it actually proves that from the first moments of intelligence collection they knew Al Qaeda was behind it, and even if there was a protest (which there wasn't) that was simply a matter of providing cover for the planned attack.>>
Okay.

I for one, am extremely grateful that you pissed away your education by devoting entirely to much time to a blog hobby and have an entirely ludicrous resume so that I can read true insight voiced cogently.

Yeah, I would take care of family and easily set up 2 scholarship funds for my Alma Mater (one for students one for tutors).
What to do with Ace though?
How could I endow a new org devoted to keeping Ace comfy and not homeless yet hungry enough to keep writing?
Yeah, I'm gonna not play the lottery for EXACTLY this reason.
Also, playing the lottery is objectively stupid which is why I don't (sorry JJ Shrimp!).
Now I have an emotional hook.
Please God, do not give me too much money because all I would do is destroy Ace with it!

And now, caught out lying to the public about this, they claim this intelligence vindicates them -- but it actually proves that from the first moments of intelligence collection they knew Al Qaeda was behind it, and even if there was a protest (which there wasn't) that was simply a matter of providing cover for the planned attack.>>
Okay.
Time to fire up the Pay-Pal...
I for one, am extremely grateful that you pissed away your education by devoting entirely to much time to a blog hobby and have an entirely ludicrous resume so that I can read true insight voiced cogently.
It's one of those dilemmas...
What if I won the Powerball?
Yeah, I would take care of family and easily set up 2 scholarship funds for my Alma Mater (one for students one for tutors).
What to do with Ace though?
How could I endow a new org devoted to keeping Ace comfy and not homeless yet hungry enough to keep writing?
Yeah, I'm gonna not play the lottery for EXACTLY this reason.
Also, playing the lottery is objectively stupid which is why I don't (sorry JJ Shrimp!).
Now I have an emotional hook.
Please God, do not give me too much money because all I would do is destroy Ace with it!

FoxNews: "Yet
a congressional source told Fox News that CIA Director David Petraeus,
during a briefing with members of the House Intelligence Committee three
days after the attack, also espoused the view that Benghazi was an
out-of-control demonstration prompted by the YouTube video. According to
the source,
this was "shocking" to some members who were present and saw the same
intelligence pointing toward a terrorist attack."
It wasn't/isn’t just Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice,and Baghdad Bob Jay Carney who perpetrated this Goebbels level
Big Lie. CIA head Imam David Petraeus is also guilty. In fact it was
probably that b-astard’s idea.

This "coming in your mouth" incident was actually nothing of the sort. Because my ass was itching. And I was scratching it. It really was itching. It was an "ass-scratching" incident.

So, why do we have a special Marine unit designed to assist embassies, based in Spain, at large expense, if all they do is wait until its over then fly to Tripoli and sit there for 2 weeks, and then go to the burnt out embassy.
Also, do the CCTV cameras at embassies uplink via satellite? I bet they do. I bet they are not running 1980's technology with tapes only on-site. I bet they had the video from DAY ONE.
They also managed to get a drone there pretty fast as well. (I guess that should be a positive.)
