Obama free fall continues, avoids questions on Benghazi

[Deadwood]

The slide in the polls continues as Gallup reported today that Romney has pulled ahead beyond the margin of error, indicating a negative momentum. The news increases pressure on the struggling incumbent president to turn in a seriously improved performance in tnight's second of three debates with challenger Mitt Romney.




RINCETON, NJ -- Half of likely voters now prefer Mitt Romney for president and 46% back President Barack Obama in Gallup interviewing through Monday.

Meanwhile, Obama joked with reporters today, but ignored questions on the growing controversy over security measures in the terrorist attack on the Benghazi consulate causing some observers to speculate he will try to dodge the issue in tonight's debate.

After joking with reporters, President Barack Obama ignored Tuesday a shouted question about whether Sec. Hillary Clinton is to blame for security failures surrounding the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya.
The exchange was first reported in the White House pool report, as Obama went to a debate prep session in Williamsburg, Va., before Tuesday’s presidential debate in New York:
REUTERS: How are you feeling about tonight?
OBAMA (smiling): I feel fabulous. Look at this beautiful day.
NBC: Are you aware Michelle voted for you yesterday?
OBAMA (turning to yell back): Thank goodness!
POLITICO: Is Hillary to blame for Benghazi?
OBAMA: (Silence. Kept walking.)
Clinton accepted responsibility for the security failures before the attack in interviews Monday from Lima, Peru. The secretary did, however, say she does not know who briefed Ambassador Susan Rice (http://freebeacon.com/clinton-youd-have-to-ask-susan-rice-who-briefed-her-on-benghazi/) on the attacks before a series of interviews Rice conducted days after the attack; Rice attributed the attack on the consulate to violence stemming from a protest against an anti-Islam film.

Obama really needs to keep focusing on how Ryan and the Tea Party Occupiers cut funding for embassy security. It's the core issue that expose the conservative hypocrites.

Oh yes they can. And do. No matter either the gravity of the problem nor the issue itself, the pathetic, prevaricating pussies will turn the tables and blame someone or something else. It matters not that even Obama admitted they dropped the ball nor the fact that Hillary Whore Clinton has taken one up the tail pipe for the gipper and admitted it was her mistake, these pious and ponderous, postulating, pussies will blame someone else.

FFS, yesterday we saw Bush being blamed for the 911 attacks as a defense of the assassination of the four Americans in Benghazi..... It doesn't have to make sense, and it is seldom if ever accurate, it is simple shit slinging in the hopes some paramecium buys into it. But what to you expect from a slithering low IQ sub human who can't post anything without using the word teabagger even though the whole fucking movement died two years ago? Ignore is my friend....let it be yours.

Whether people proposed budget cuts or not is not relevant...., a budget has not been passed for what, 3-4 years? :wink:

That's a lie! Obama's own people said funding was not an issue.

[Calypso Jones]

No, the core is that when a diplomat requests assistance, the WH delivers, they don't turn a blind eye then try to cover the facts with political rhetoric.
