1. Have you asked them the question tossed around here today?

Willard receives an intelligence briefing daily. Yet, ever since the 2nd debate, not one word about Benghazi has escaped his lips. Not. One. Instead of Benghazi, Willard has double- and triple-downed on his oft-disproved Jeep lies.

If Faux and Deadbart are foaming at the mouth about Benghazi 24/7, but the candidate is not, what does that tell us?

There's nothing to hide. And the CIA probably warned him against using them in deliberate lies.

3. You know the crazy thing is they don't post FOR Romney, just against Obama.

And I think we all know where that comes from. They are getting on my last nerve though. I can't WAIT for the shocked silence on Wednesday!

And timely.

“There were no orders to anybody to stand down in providing support,” said the official. The official’s comments appeared to be a direct rebuttal of a Fox News report that CIA teams on the ground had been told by superior officers to “stand down” from providing security support to the consulate.

5. I never have understood why people think we should be clued in on matters like this.

I know I know, trusting the gov't isn't in modern DNA. But why would Obama just walk out and say "Okay, let me tell you everything our intelligence knows and how they know it and as things develop we'll keep you in the loop, m'kay?"

4. If I never hear about Benghazi again it will be too soon

Right wingers have beat this too death. While there are probably a series of legitimate questions to have answered, they've politicized it so much that I'm fed up of hearing about the place.

11. Only Fox broadcasts this crap

Networks can't make money off of this story because the targeted market is too small. It is a "slow news day" type story that Fox gives more weight than a natural disastor in our most populated region.
