With all this news coverage on Benghazi, I don’t understand
why nobody will just come out and call it like it is. Why is everyone in the
media afraid to say what everyone knows to be true? The attack on the embassy
in Benghazi took place during the time that the President and his cabinet were
campaigning for the election.
Nobody wanted to deal with the attack, the murder
of Americans serving their country, the threat of forced retaliation, or the
time and effort that would be taken away from the campaign. President Obama
knew that any time spent on handling the incident would be time lost, since
Mitt Romney would not have to take that time. The race was close and the polls
were close.
Stop beating around the bush, Washington. Stop dragging this
on in hopes of someone in the State Department will roll over on their
superiors and admit that the decision to downplay the crisis came from the top.
I am not in any way playing one side or the other here. If
it were a Republican running for reelection, he would have done the same thing.
It’s called politics. The campaign advisors did the math and urged the
President toward a decision. The campaign won. There isn’t anything we can do
about it now, aside from calling The Man to the stand and seeing what he has to
say about it.
Am I wrong? Please let me know.
