Blake Stevens, the ambassador's father, was a noted Deputy Attorney General in California who represented me on many occasions. Here is what he said about his son's death:

Quote:
The father of Chris Stevens, the U.S. ambassador to Libya who was murdered in a terrorist attack in Benghazi last month, has said it would be 'abhorrent' to turn his son's death into political fodder in the battle for the White House.
'It would really be abhorrent to make this into a campaign issue,' said Jan Stevens, 77. 'The security matters are being adequately investigated.
'We don’t pretend to be experts in security. It has to be objectively examined. That’s where it belongs. It does not belong in the campaign arena.'
The father of slain U.S. ambassador Chris Stevens, above, said it would 'really be abhorrent' to turn his death into a campaign issue
Mr Stevens said he had been getting regular briefings from the State Department on progress in the investigation - a contrast with the mother of Sean Smith, another of the four U.S. personnel killed in Benghazi, who has complained she was being kept in the dark.
He was speaking in a telephone interview from his home in Loomis, California, as he made preparations for a memorial service for his son due to be held next week.
The attacks on September 11 this year have already become one of the major election battlegrounds.
Mitt Romney, the Republican presidential nominee, has blasted Barack Obama for failing to provide effective security in Benghazi and for shifting explanations over what prompted the deadly assault on the U.S. compound.
Mr Stevens stopped short of openly criticizing Romney, who the Obama campaign have accused of of seeking to gain political advantage from a tragedy.
'I’m not sure exactly what he’s been saying and not saying, but our position is it would be a real shame if this were politicised,' said Stevens.

Then mac you can place me in your scum department.

He just said he doesn't want it to become a political issue, nothing else, as in the investigation is over, he wants the investigation to continue, he wants the truth as much as anybody else.

" 'It would really be abhorrent to make this into a campaign issue,' said Jan Stevens, 77. 'The security matters are being adequately investigated.
'We don’t pretend to be experts in security. It has to be objectively examined. That’s where it belongs."

Who could disagree with that?

Keep your scum label to yourself.

Rep. Rogers faced up to reality. Now, one wonders when Rep. Issa and his band of hooligans will do the same.

It's your bucket, and if it takes up space in your garage, I have no problem with that, there must be many of us in there, as well as many buckets. You must have a big garage.
I only keep toys in my garage, the van stays outside.

The lamestream media are claiming the GOP fabricated the Benghazi "rumors", i.e., that it lied ... as though they were the source of those "rumors". In fact, we've seen the SEALS, the CIA chiefs, the SecDefs, the 4-stars, the field officers, the videos, the onsite weapons analysis, and the many correspondences from which the "rumors" originated. That proves that the GOP did NOT fabricate them and that they are not just rumors but rather expert testimony at worst, concrete evidence at best.

That's provable media bias!

Those same media are also saying the GOP and its media were wrong in claiming the embassy was a pipeline for weapons to Syria. In two years of listening to Fox and TR and reading countless print news agencies discuss Benghazi, this is the first time I've heard that claim.

Perhaps you should put on your readers and turn up your hearing aid:

I actually believed Iso watched Fox and not just nutcase TR, but lately it is clear his TV must be on the blink.
On the other hand his posts alternate between offense and mostly wrong.
This is Iso 2.1 .
His posts once were all offensive, often in large caps.
Two posters?

I guess the story isn't dead yet.
Quote:
“These documents are jaw-dropping. No wonder we had to file more FOIA lawsuits and wait over two years for them. If the American people had known the truth – that Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and other top administration officials knew that the Benghazi attack was an al-Qaeda terrorist attack from the get-go – and yet lied and covered this fact up – Mitt Romney might very well be president. And why would the Obama administration continue to support the Muslim Brotherhood even after it knew it was tied to the Benghazi terrorist attack and to al Qaeda? These documents also point to connection between the collapse in Libya and the ISIS war – and confirm that the U.S. knew remarkable details about the transfer of arms from Benghazi to Syrian jihadists,” stated Tom Fitton, Judicial Watch president. “These documents show that the Benghazi cover-up has continued for years and is only unraveling through our independent lawsuits. The Benghazi scandal just got a whole lot worse for Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.”

seriously are you this stupid. Read the article. Their write up shows nothing like that. If these documents were so amazing to support your case where are the cittions that show it. His quotes do not show that.


Do you read vs puke out headlines?.

Here is one point from your cited waco ISSIS source...

This was a report the next day... . It was sent after the attack. Not before it. Next as we know a report the next day may not even be the last word or correct, other agencies have to chime in but at the time quick assessments are made. And the same group who made the assessment has to see if any other information came up that dis-credits their off the cuff information.


Quote:
A Defense Department document from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), dated September 12, 2012, the day after the Benghazi attack, details that the attack on the compound had been carefully planned by the BOCAR terrorist group “to kill as many Americans as possible.” The document was sent to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, then-Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Obama White House National Security Council. The heavily redacted Defense Department “information report” says that the attack on the Benghazi facility “was planned and executed by The Brigades of the Captive Omar Abdul Rahman (BCOAR).” The group subscribes to “AQ ideologies:”

The attack was planned ten or more days prior on approximately 01 September 2012. The intention was to attack the consulate and to kill as many Americans as possible to seek revenge for U.S. killing of Aboyahiye ((ALALIBY)) in Pakistan and in memorial of the 11 September 2001 atacks on the World Trade Center buildings.

the story will never be deadjust like the continuous investigations on her husband by the right wing.

woudn't we like a special prosecutor on how lies were not prosecuted to get us into a war in Iraq. Which is more important and still to date no special prosecutor to investigate this lie and war crimes.
